摘要：
Objectives To investigate the prevalence and the clinical feature of essential tremor (ET) in a community cohort in Beijing. Methods Using a door-to-door, two-phase approach, we investigated 2,835 residents aged >= 55 years old from rural, urban, and mountain areas. Results The prevalence rate of ET was 4.29%, 2.85%, and 2.29% in rural, urban, and mountain areas, respectively. The overall age- and sex-adjusted prevalence was 3.29%. Among those aged >= 75 years, the prevalence rate in the urban area was higher than those in the rural and mountain areas. The prevalence rate increased with age, and the prevalence was higher among men (6.0%) than among women (3.6%). There was a correlation of ET prevalence with age, sex, and habitation area, but not with alcohol, tea drinking, and occupation. Women (25%) with ET were more likely to have head tremor than men (16.9%). Conclusions The ET prevalence in the elderly of Beijing was 3.29% which is higher in the urban area and in men.
