摘要
Epilepsy is a kind of brain dysfunction syndrome characterized by paroxysmal,transient,repetitive and rigid characteristics caused by abnormal discharge of highly synchronized neurons in the brain.Epilepsy is often accompanied by cognitive dysfunction.At present,anti-seizure medications are the most important methods of clinical treatment.Most of the traditional anti-seizure medications can cause cognitive dysfunction,and the influence of new anti-seizure medications on cognitive function is not completely clear.This paper reviews the influence of new anti-seizure medications on cognitive function and the possible related mechanisms of action based on relevant literature at home and abroad.It is expected that clinicians should pay attention to cognitive function in the process of diagnosis and treatment of epilepsy,and help clinicians realize the influence of anti-seizure medications on cognitive function,and rationally choose anti-seizure medications for patients.
