Two groups of epileptic children, one newly diagnosed and one with chronic epilepsy, were compared with two comparable groups of diabetic children and with children in the general population in order to investigate the development of psychiatric disorder. The results confirm previous findings that children with chronic epilepsy are significantly more disturbed than children with chronic physical illness not involving the central nervous system, and than children in the general population. Children with newly diagnosed epilepsy were also significantly more disturbed than those with newly diagnosed diabetes, and than children in the general population. The rate of psychiatric disturbance was similar in the two groups of epileptic children. In both groups of epileptic children, those with focal EEG abnormalities and/or complex partial seizures were particularly vulnerable to psychiatric disturbance.
为了研究精神障碍的发展情况，将两组癫痫儿童（一组为新诊断出的，另一组为慢性癫痫患者）与两组类似的糖尿病儿童以及普通人群中的儿童进行了比较。结果证实了先前的研究结果，即患有慢性癫痫的儿童比未涉及中枢神经系统的慢性身体疾病儿童以及普通人群中的儿童受到的干扰明显更大。新诊断出癫痫的儿童也比新诊断出糖尿病的儿童以及普通人群中的儿童受到的干扰明显更大。两组癫痫儿童的精神障碍发生率相似。在两组癫痫儿童中，脑电图有局灶性异常和/或复杂部分性发作的儿童尤其容易受到精神障碍的影响。
