Exploding head syndrome (EHS) has historically been viewed as a disorder predominantly affecting older people and being more common in females. Through a comprehensive review of data since 2005, this scoping review provides updated evidence from 4082 participants reporting EHS across a variety of study designs on: how EHS presents; key information on comorbidity and correlates of EHS; how EHS is experienced in terms of symptoms and beliefs; causal theories arising from the research reviewed; and evidence-based information on how research has reported on the management of EHS. Since 2005, EHS has attracted increasing research interest; however, there are significant gaps in the research that are hindering a better understanding of EHS that might be helpful for clinicians.
爆炸头综合征（EHS）历史上被认为主要影响老年人，且在女性中更为常见。通过对 2005 年以来数据的全面回顾，本范围综述提供了来自 4082 名报告 EHS 的参与者的最新证据，这些参与者来自各种研究设计，涉及：EHS 的表现；EHS 的合并症和相关因素的关键信息；从研究中出现的 EHS 的症状和信念方面的体验；以及基于证据的关于研究如何报告 EHS 管理的信息。自 2005 年以来，EHS 引起了越来越多的研究兴趣；然而，研究中存在着显著的差距，这阻碍了对 EHS 的更好理解，而这可能对临床医生有帮助。
