There are only scarce epidemiological data on the prevalence of erythropoietic protoporphyria (EPP) in a given population. The aim of this study was to assess the prevalence of EPP within the Slovenian population.
The patients were selected by routine examination of photosensitive patients and by studying hospital records. A quantitative spectrophotometric method was used to assess protoporphyrin, with values larger than 530 nm/l considered elevated.
32 EPP patients were detected, which allows us to estimate the prevalence of EPP in Slovenia at 1.75 per 100,000 inhabitants.
关于特定人群中红细胞生成性原卟啉病（EPP）患病率的流行病学数据非常稀少。本研究的目的是评估斯洛文尼亚人群中EPP的患病率。
通过对光敏患者的常规检查和研究医院记录来选择患者。采用定量分光光度法评估原卟啉，值大于530nm/l被认为升高。
检测到32例EPP患者，这使我们能够估计斯洛文尼亚EPP的患病率为每10万居民中有1.75例。
