The sick building syndrome (SBS) has been the subject of serious scientific inquiry only in the past 10 years. It is commonly accepted to represent eye, nose, and throat irritation; headaches, lethargy, difficulty concentrating, and sometimes dizziness; nausea, chest tightness; and other symptoms. Evidence suggests that what is called the SBS is at least three separate entities, each of which has at least one cause. This review will summarize the epidemiologic investigations of the SBS and present an overview of etiologic hypotheses.
病态建筑综合征（SBS）仅仅在过去10年才成为认真科学探究的主题。人们普遍认为它表现为眼睛、鼻子和喉咙的刺激感；头痛、无精打采、难以集中注意力，有时还会头晕；恶心、胸闷；以及其他症状。有证据表明，所谓的SBS至少是三个不同的实体，每个实体至少有一个病因。本综述将总结SBS的流行病学调查，并概述病因假说。
