Calorie Intake During Status Epilepticus and Outcome: A 5-Year Cohort Study

Conclusions: Our results indicate that increased calorie intake during status epilepticus is independently associated with unfavorable outcome. These findings require further validation and investigations into potential mediators, such as induction of ketogenesis, immunomodulating effects, and/or reduction of ICU-associated complications, such as infections.
