高原地区癫痫相关研究进展

Research progress on epilepsy in the plateau area

癫痫是一种慢性神经系统疾病,是神经内科常见病。癫痫的流行病学、临床特征及危险因素因地区不同而各有差异。目前关于高原地区癫痫的研究尚不多,现有研究显示高原地区癫痫的发病率、患病率高于其他地区;高原地区癫痫治疗缺口大,患者的生活质量差,其中脑血管疾病、脑寄生虫病和颅脑外伤是高原地区癫痫的常见病因。本文对高原地区癫痫的流行病学特点、临床特征、危险因素、病因、共患病等相关研究进行总结,旨在为高原地区癫痫患者的诊疗提供参考依据。

Epilepsy is a chronic neurological disease and a common disease in neurology.The epidemiologic characters,clinical characteristics and risk factors of epilepsy vary from region to region.Although there are relatively few studies on epilepsy in the plateau,current studies show that its morbidity and prevalence are higher than those in other regions.There is a large gap in epilepsy treatment in the plateau area,and the quality of life of patients is poor.Among them,cerebrovascular diseases,cerebral parasitic diseases and craniocerebral trauma are common causes of epilepsy in the plateau area.This paper summarizes the epidemiologic characteristics,clinical characteristics,risk factors,etiology,comorbidities and other related studies of epilepsy in plateau areas,aiming to offer valuable reference for the diagnosis and treatment of epilepsy patients in plateau areas.
