府楚县3岁儿童中,高热惊厥的6年发病率为8.2%(占95%)。男生发病率高于女生(9.0%:7.5%,P < 0.001)。发病率随出生月份和年份而变化,但观察到的变化很小。第1次热性惊厥的季节变化有两个高峰出现在11月~前者可解释为冬季儿童上呼吸道病毒感染的趋势。另一个高峰在夏季,可能是由于胃肠道感染的倾向。热性惊厥的易感性受儿童年龄和热性疾病的季节变化的影响,但不受出生季节的影响。
The 6 yr incidence rates of febrile convulsions in all 3 yr old children in Fuchu (covering 95% of children, number examined 17,044) was 8.2%. The incidence was higher in boys than in girls (9.0%: 7.5%, P < 0.001). The incidence rates varied with the month and year of birth, but the variations observed were slight. Two peak appearances of seasonal variation of the 1st febrile convulsion were found in Nov.-Jan. and in June-Aug. The former could be interpreted as a tendency to winter virus infection of the upper respiratory tract in children. The other peak in summer could be explained as a tendency to gastrointestinal infection. Liability to febrile convulsion was influenced by the age of children and by the seasonal variations of febrile illness, but not by the season of birth.
