The relationship between sleep and epilepsy is established through clinical research, such as the study by Shouse et al. {fact:1, fact:3} and the chapter by Shouse and Mahowald {fact:4, fact:5}, which examine the interplay between these two concepts. Furthermore, empirical data indicates that a significant portion of individuals with partial complex localization-related seizures experience convulsions specifically during sleep [1].
