Neuropathology findings in PWE and SUDEP subgroups. (A) The number of neuropathological findings per case were not significantly different in the total SUDEP group when compared to PWE (two-tailed t-test), nor among the SUDEP subgroups (one-way ANOVA Tukey’s post hoc test). The mean is depicted with errors bars representing SEM. (B) The percent of cases with neuropathology findings in each group are depicted for the diagnoses described on the x-axis. The most frequent finding overall in epilepsy was dentate gyrus dysgenesis (DGD) at 51.1% and focal cortical dysplasia (FCD) at 35.9% of cases. For the total SUDEP group, the most frequent findings were DGD in 50.9% of cases and FCD in 41.8% of cases. For the PWE group, the most frequent findings were DGD in 54.8% of cases and FCD in 29.0% of cases. For all SUDEP subgroups, the most frequent finding was DGD. When comparing the total SUDEP and PWE groups, there was no significant difference in the frequency of each neuropathological finding (Fisher’s exact test).
