Background and Purpose Despite the successful use of a ketogenic diet in pediatric epilepsy, its application in adults has been limited. The aim of this meta-analysis was to summarize thefindings of relevant published studies in order to identify the efficacy of and compliance with aketogenic diet and its main subtypes (i.e., classic ketogenic diet and modified Atkins diet) inadults with intractable epilepsy, and to provide useful information for clinical practice. Methods Electronic searches of PubMed, EMBASE, Google Scholar, and the ISI Web of Science were conducted to identify studies of the efficacy of and patient compliance with a ketogenic diet in adults with intractable epilepsy; the included studies were reviewed. Meta-analyseswere performed using STATA to determine combined efficacy rates and combined rates of compliance with the ketogenic diet and its main subtypes. Results In total, 12 studies qualified for inclusion, and data from 270 patients were evaluated. The results of the meta-analysis revealed combined efficacy rates of all types of ketogenic diet,a classical ketogenic diet, and a modified Atkins diet were 42%, 52%, and 34%, respectively;the corresponding combined compliance rates were 45%, 38%, and 56%. Conclusions The results indicate that a ketogenic diet is a promising complementary therapyin adult intractable epilepsy, and that while a classical ketogenic diet may be more effective,adult patients are likely to be less compliant with it than with a modified Atkins diet.
