Partial seizure onset may be more common in alcoholics than what has been thought.
In a Norwegian study comprising 142 patients half of those patients who were treated at the emergency room of a university hospital for a sudden episode of epilepsy and who were AUDIT positive (alcohol abusers) were found to have partial seizure onset.
Comment: The quality of evidence is downgraded by study quality and by imprecise results (limited study size).
