In this population-based survey, we have evaluated the lifetime prevalence of tic disorders and related sociodemographic factors and comorbidities of them. The data obtained from face-to-face interviews with 29,885 children and adolescents aged 6-18 years. We used the multistage cluster sampling method and a cross-sectional design. Tic disorders and other psychiatric disorders were assessed using the Persian version of the Kiddie Schedule for Affective Disorders and Schizophrenia-Present and Lifetime Version (K-SADS-PL). The lifetime prevalence of tic disorders was 1.5% (95% CI (1.3-1.7%)). The highest prevalence was in the age range of 15-18 years old with 1.9% (95% CI (1.6-2.3%)).57.7% (95% CI 51.8-63.3%) of patients with tic disorders had comorbidity with other psychiatric disorders. Increasing the prevalence of tic disorder with increasing age among Iranian children and adolescents, emphasizes the need to pay more attention to use of pharmacological and non-pharmacological treatments and increase education to families in this regard.
在这项基于人群的调查中，我们评估了抽动障碍的终生患病率以及与之相关的社会人口学因素和共病情况。数据来自对 29885 名 6-18 岁儿童和青少年的面对面访谈。我们使用多阶段聚类抽样方法和横断面设计。使用儿童情感障碍和精神分裂症现状和终生版（K-SADS-PL）的波斯语版本评估抽动障碍和其他精神障碍。抽动障碍的终生患病率为 1.5%（95%置信区间（1.3-1.7%））。患病率最高的年龄段为 15-18 岁，为 1.9%（95%置信区间（1.6-2.3%））。57.7%（95%置信区间 51.8-63.3%）的抽动障碍患者伴有其他精神障碍共病。伊朗儿童和青少年中抽动障碍的患病率随年龄增长而增加，这强调了需要更加关注药物和非药物治疗的使用，并在这方面加强对家庭的教育。
