CBZ: carbamazepine; CI: confidence interval; GBP: gabapentin; LEV: levetiracetam; LTG: lamotrigine; OXC: oxcarbazepine; PHB: phenobarbitone; PHT: phenytoin; TPM: topiramate; VPS: sodium valproate; ZNS: zonisamide
Consistency: direct, indirect and network estimates for individuals with partial seizures compared to carbamazepine (CBZ) for time to withdrawal of allocated treatment and time to 12‐month remission.
Note: direct evidence comes from studies that compared the drugs (head‐to‐head comparisons), indirect evidence comes from studies that did not compare the drugs (indirect comparisons) and network evidence comes from the whole network (head‐to‐head and indirect comparisons for all drugs).
