A common strategy for treating epilepsy is the use of antiseizure medications (ASMs). However, ASMs usually raise concerns about accompanying side effects on the cognitive function of patients. Understanding the causal relationship between ASMs targets and cognitive function is crucial for developing therapeutic strategies that mitigate cognitive side effects while effectively managing seizures. This study aimed...
