aFor two studies we could only calculate 'Time to first seizure'; the study duration of Ogunrin 2005 was 12 weeks, and all randomised participants completed the study without withdrawing; and Banu 2007 did not record the dates of all seizures after randomisation and dates of withdrawal for allocated treatment for all participants. bTrials designed in two strata based on whether recommended treatment would be CBZ or VPS. Within the two strata, participants were randomised to TPM in Privitera 2003/LEV in Trinka 2013 or CBZ/VPS depending on the strata. Data analysed according to the separate strata (CBZ branch or VPS branch) in this review. cWithdrawal information was not available for two trials so we could not calculate 'Time to withdrawal of allocated treatment' (Craig 1994; Pal 1998). dWe could not calculate 'Time to 12‐month remission' for nine trials as the duration of the study was less than 12 months (Biton 2001; Brodie 1995a; Brodie 1995b; Chadwick 1998; Eun 2012; Lee 2011; Ramsey 1992; Reunanen 1996; Steiner 1999) and we could not calculate 'Time to 12‐month remission' or 'Time to six‐month remission' for three trials as the duration of the study was less than six months (Brodie 1999; Nieto‐Barrera 2001; Ramsey 2010).
