BACKGROUND
No previous studies have examined marital status of patients with epilepsy and epilepsy-related factors on perceived and enacted stigmas in Iran. In the present study, marital status of patients with epilepsy (PWE's) in Birjand city in the east of Iran was investigated.
METHODS
A multicenter cross-sectional study was conducted to identify factors contributing to the marital status of PWE's in a cross-sectional study with 471 participants. Diagnosis of epilepsy in participants (374 cases) was confirmed by at least two neurologists.
RESULTS
Marriage rate of PWE's was 27.3% (n = 102 patients) and divorce rate was 54.8% (n = 205 patients). Divorce rate in women was significantly higher than in men (62.6% vs. 46.4%; P < 0.05), and there were no significant differences between the different types of epilepsy (P > 0.05).
CONCLUSIONS
The stigma of epilepsy has impacts on marital status of PWE's. The PWE's suffering from the enacted stigma of epilepsy are significantly more likely to get divorced in comparison with other patients.
背景
此前尚无研究探讨伊朗癫痫患者的婚姻状况以及癫痫相关因素对感知到的耻辱感和实际耻辱行为的影响。在本研究中，对伊朗东部比尔詹德市癫痫患者（PWE）的婚姻状况进行了调查。
方法
开展了一项多中心横断面研究，以确定在一项有471名参与者的横断面研究中影响癫痫患者婚姻状况的因素。参与者（374例）的癫痫诊断由至少两名神经科医生确认。
结果
癫痫患者的结婚率为27.3%（n = 102例患者），离婚率为54.8%（n = 205例患者）。女性的离婚率显著高于男性（62.6%对46.4%；P < 0.05），不同类型癫痫之间无显著差异（P > 0.05）。
结论
癫痫的耻辱感对癫痫患者的婚姻状况有影响。与其他患者相比，遭受癫痫实际耻辱行为的癫痫患者离婚的可能性显著更高。
