研究人员说,萧条使癫痫风险翻倍,并使治疗结果恶化。 Depression doubles epilepsy risk and worsens treatment outcomes, researchers say.

根据一项大型研究,将先前八个项目的数据综合起来,研究者指出,炎症、压力和睡眠中断等共同生物因素,患有抑郁症的人面临患上癫痫的风险增加了一倍以上。 People with depression face more than double the risk of developing epilepsy, according to a large study combining data from eight prior projects, with researchers pointing to shared biological factors like inflammation, stress, and disrupted sleep. 对90,000多名癫痫病人进行的第二次研究发现,抑郁症患者的首次抗震素药物失败的可能性高40%,这往往是由于副作用或治疗的复杂程度所致。 A second study of over 90,000 epilepsy patients found that those with depression were 40% more likely to fail their first antiseizure medication, often due to side effects or treatment complexity. 这些人的焦虑、睡眠问题、精神错乱、两极性紊乱以及心脏病和糖尿病等慢性病的比率也较高。 These individuals also had higher rates of anxiety, sleep issues, psychosis, bipolar disorder, and chronic conditions like heart disease and diabetes. 专家们强调需要综合的心理健康和神经护理,尽管在医疗会议上提出的结果尚未经过同行审查。 Experts stress the need for integrated mental health and neurological care, though the findings, presented at a medical conference, are not yet peer-reviewed.
