Australia-wide prospective surveillance of human transmissible spongiform encephalopathies (TSEs) has been conducted by the Australian National Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease Registry (ANCJDR) since October 1993. In addition, the Registry retrospectively ascertained TSE cases within Australia from 1970. Referrals of all suspect cases of human prion diseases or TSEs are investigated by the ANCJDR and include Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD), Gerstmann-Sträussler-Scheinker syndrome, fatal familial insomnia and variant CJD. This semi-annual progressive update presents epidemiological findings of the ANCJDR based on Australian data obtained for the period 1970 to 31 December 2005.
自1993年10月以来,澳大利亚国家克雅氏病登记处(ANCJDR)一直在澳大利亚范围内对人类可传播性海绵状脑病(TSE)进行前瞻性监测。此外,该登记处还对1970年以来澳大利亚境内的TSE病例进行了回顾性确诊。ANCJDR对所有疑似人类朊病毒病或TSE病例进行调查,包括克雅氏病(CJD)、格斯特曼-施特劳斯勒-谢inker综合征、致死性家族性失眠症和变异型CJD。这份半年期的进展报告呈现了ANCJDR基于1970年至2005年12月31日期间澳大利亚数据得出的流行病学调查结果。
