A free-field study of 22 epileptic children, selected on the basis of past electroencephalographic abnormality, identified a group who exhibited a significant increase in epileptiform discharge rate on electroencephalography in a discothèque environment (p less than 0.05). Laboratory investigations showed that these children were activated by a wide range of stimuli, including intermittent photic stimulation and exercise. The response to exercise was a good predictor of a child's electroencephalographic response in a discothèque. The findings suggest that most epileptic children are not particularly vulnerable in a discothèque environment.
一项针对22名癫痫儿童的自由场研究，这些儿童是根据过去的脑电图异常情况挑选出来的，研究发现其中一组儿童在迪斯科舞厅环境中脑电图上癫痫样放电率显著增加（p小于0.05）。实验室调查表明，这些儿童会被多种刺激激活，包括间歇性光刺激和运动。对运动的反应是儿童在迪斯科舞厅中脑电图反应的良好预测指标。研究结果表明，大多数癫痫儿童在迪斯科舞厅环境中并非特别易受影响。
