ABSTRACT
In 2013, Brigo and Ausserer published the article
entitled “A Google fight between seizure and syncope” on “Seizure.” They
describe what is Google fight and compare the number of search results in
Google for the terms related to epilepsy and syncope. In this letter, our
objective is found the results of the searches number in Google at 2019 and
compare them with those found in 2013. A table is provided comparing the number
of searches in the two dates. To evaluate how often people search the Google to
look for online information related to epilepsy and syncope, we entered the set
of key-words “seizure,” “syncope,” “faint,” and “fainting” at the “Google
fight” main page (available at http://www.googlefight.com/, accessed 11/17/19).
Keywords: Google fight, seizure, epilepsy,
syncope, faint
