A post hoc analysis indicated that AED initiation during hospitalization was not associated with presenting with status epilepticus (p = 0.251), multiple seizures prior to presentation (p = 0.548), advanced HIV infection (p = 0.651), CD4+ T-cell count at enrolment (p = 0.929), or seizure focality (p = 0.129). The gene discussed is CD4; the disease is status epilepticus.
