Public knowledge and attitude regarding epileptic seizure in the Eastern Province, Saudi Arabia
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Background: Epilepsy is a neurological condition marked by unpredictably disrupted brain activity known as epileptic seizures. In Saudi Arabia, the prevalence of epilepsy is 6.5 per 1,000. The Saudi community has a low level of awareness regarding epilepsy. Objective: To assess the awareness, knowledge, and attitudes regarding epilepsy in the Eastern region of Saudi Arabia. Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted among people who lived in the Eastern Province of Saudi Arabia. Data were collected through a self-administered questionnaire that was distributed via social media. Results: A total of 448 responses were received. Participants fulfilling the inclusion criteria completed the study questionnaire. Only 111 (24.8%) participants had good knowledge level regarding epilepsy and its treatment. Good attitude was detected among 50.3% of female participants as compared to 43.1% of males (p = 0.049). Also, 49.5% of participants who had heard or read about disease had good attitude towards epilepsy. Conclusion: Only one-quarter of the participants in the present survey had sufficient level of knowledge about epilepsy and its treatment.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
