Comparative efficacy of anti-epileptic drugs for neonatal seizures: a network meta-analysis

Anti-epileptic drugs have different effects on neonatal seizures, and new agents have been widely used in recent years. We conducted a network meta-analysis and examined comparative efficacy of the first-line and second-line anti-epileptic drugs for neonatal seizures. First-line drugs are those that were used as the first anticonvulsant therapy in the trials; second-line drugs are those that were used as the second anticonvulsant therapy in the trials.
