N2 - Socioeconomic inequalities in epilepsy incidence and its adverse outcomes are documented internationally, yet between countries, the extent of inequalities and factors influencing the association may differ.

However, the data on UK epilepsy inequalities has not previously been synthesised in a review and the underlying determinants are unknown.
