Lennox–Gastaut dx. Have input quite a complex source, but think it is appropriate and links to Aus guidelines.
You may prefer the following cloze format:
{{c1::Lennox–Gastaut}} syndrome is a developmental and/or epileptic encephalopathy (DEE) characterised by:
{{c2::Multiple types of drug-resistant seizures with onset prior to 18 years of age AND}}
{{c2::Cognitive/behavioral impairments AND}}
{{c2::Diffuse slow spike-and-wave and generalized paroxysmal fast activity on EEG}}
