A group of 36 epileptic patients is studied; in 35 the drug was suppressed and in 1 the treatment was not started. The group was compared with epilepsy in general regarding to the age of onset, the time of the disease, the frequency of the seizures, the clinical manifestations and the EEG pattern. In view of the results attained by the investigation the author draws the following conclusions: 1) in the group studied the onset of the disease prevailed at the second decade of life; 2) the disease duration was lower than 1 year in 55% of the cases; 3) the cases submitted to early treatment predominate in the group studied; 4) the patients with pure convulsive seizures predominate when compared to those with focal convulsive fits; significant differences were not found when the EEG pattern of the group studied was compared with epilepsy in general; the rate of normal EEG was similar in both groups.
对一组36名癫痫患者进行了研究；其中35名患者停用了药物，1名患者未开始治疗。将该组患者在发病年龄、病程、癫痫发作频率、临床表现和脑电图模式等方面与一般癫痫患者进行了比较。鉴于调查所取得的结果，作者得出以下结论：1）在研究组中，疾病发病多集中在生命的第二个十年；2）55%的病例病程短于1年；3）研究组中接受早期治疗的病例占多数；4）与局灶性惊厥发作的患者相比，单纯惊厥发作的患者占多数；将研究组的脑电图模式与一般癫痫患者进行比较时未发现显著差异；两组脑电图正常率相似。
