Gilles de la Tourette's syndrome (GdlT) is a neurobehavioral disorder, with a reportedly high frequency of EEG abnormalities. We performed EEGs on 48 consecutive patients with GdlT, and frequency analysis in 26 patients (17 males), and compared the results with those from age- and sex-matched normal controls. Routine 18-channel EEG revealed minimal diffuse nonspecific slowing in only 3 of 48 patients (6%) and in 2 of 26 controls (7.7%). The frequency analysis of the EEG of the 26 GdlT patients and their normal controls showed similar brain activity. We conclude that no significant differences exist between the EEG activity in GdlT patients as compared with that in sex- and age-matched controls in routine as well as in quantitative EEG.
Gilles de la Tourette综合征(GdlT)是一种神经行为障碍,据报道脑电图异常的发生率很高。我们对48例连续的GdlT患者进行了脑电图检查,并对其中26例患者(17例男性)进行了频率分析,并将结果与年龄和性别匹配的正常对照组进行了比较。常规18导脑电图显示,48例患者中只有3例(6%)以及26例对照组中的2例(7.7%)出现轻微的弥漫性非特异性减慢。对26例GdlT患者及其正常对照的脑电图进行频率分析,结果显示大脑活动相似。我们得出结论,在常规脑电图和定量脑电图方面,GdlT患者的脑电图活动与年龄和性别匹配的对照组相比,不存在显著差异。
