This study was undertaken to investigate the distribution of social, lifestyle/behavior, and chronic disease risk factors for cardiovascular disease (CVD) in people with epilepsy as compared to the general population. We also measured the cross-sectional association between epilepsy and CVD in older adults, with and without adjustments for a history of stroke.
