EXPLAINED (ACCURACY-CHECKED)
Sleep deprivation is a well-recognised seizure precipitant, and abrupt circadian shifts such as daylight-saving transitions reduce sleep duration in the general population.
Sleep deprivation as a seizure precipitant is established; DST-associated sleep loss is well described. PubMed/Consensus not reachable this run; verified against established neuroanatomy and standard clinical practice.
