Objective: This study aimed to determine the correlation between outcomes following adrenocorti-cotrophic hormone (ACTH) therapy and measurements of relative power spectrum (rPS), weighted phase lag index (wPLI), and graph theoretical analysis on pretreatment electroencephalography (EEG) in infants with non-lesional infantile epileptic spasms syndrome (IESS).Methods: Twenty-eight patients with non-lesional IESS were enrolled. Outcomes were classified based on seizure recurrence following ACTH therapy: seizure-free (F, n = 21) and seizure-recurrence (R, n = 7) groups. The rPS, wPLI, clustering coefficient, and betweenness centrality were calculated on pretreatment EEG and were statistically analyzed to determine the correlation with outcomes following ACTH therapy.Results: The rPS value was significantly higher in the delta frequency band in group R than in group F (p < 0.001). The wPLI values were significantly higher in the delta, theta, and alpha frequency bands in group R than in group F (p = 0.007,
