Thank you for pointing out the error in the confidence interval for the odds ratio of presence of generalized tonic-clonic seizure (GTCS) vs lack of GTCS.

We note that the confidence interval is correctly presented as 7–14 on page 39 of the full-length document, available as a data supplement at neurology.org and on the AAN website at https://www.aan.com/Guidelines/home/GetGuidelineContent/989.
