The probability of an intracerebral neoplasm occurring in patients presenting with first seizure was calculated using the data provided by four recent studies. After recording the history of the patients and performing clinical neurological examinations, the probability of a neoplasm was increased or reduced substantially, allowing rational decision to be made for further investigation or follow-up. The impact of conventional EEG on the probabilities was weak. Decision analysis can be used to improve diagnostic practices.
利用最近四项研究提供的数据，计算首次癫痫发作患者发生脑肿瘤的概率。在记录患者病史并进行临床神经学检查后，肿瘤发生的概率会大幅增加或降低，从而能够做出进行进一步检查或随访的合理决策。传统脑电图对这些概率的影响较弱。决策分析可用于改进诊断实践。
