To evaluate the prevalence of epilepsy in children (<16 yrs) with type 1 diabetes.
A review of clinical notes and investigations was carried out on all the children with type 1 diabetes who were under follow-up in the Paediatric Diabetes clinic at Alder Hey Children's Hospital in the year 2010.
Of 285 children aged <16 years with type 1 diabetes, six also had epilepsy giving a prevalence of 21/1000. This is approximately six times greater than the prevalence of epilepsy in the general population of children in UK.
Epilepsy appears to occur more frequently in children with type 1 diabetes than in the general paediatric population.
评估 16 岁以下儿童(1 型糖尿病患者)癫痫的患病率。
对 2010 年在奥尔德·赫伊儿童医院儿科糖尿病门诊接受随访的所有 1 型糖尿病患儿的临床记录和检查进行了回顾。
在 285 名年龄小于 16 岁的 1 型糖尿病患儿中,有 6 名患儿同时患有癫痫,癫痫患病率为 21/1000。这大约是英国普通儿童人群中癫痫患病率的 6 倍。
1 型糖尿病患儿癫痫的发生似乎比普通儿科人群更为常见。
