摘要：
Purpose: To evaluate the prevalence of epilepsy in children (<16 yrs) with type 1 diabetes. Methods: A review of clinical notes and investigations was carried out on all the children with type 1 diabetes who were under follow-up in the Paediatric Diabetes clinic at Alder Hey Children's Hospital in the year 2010. Results: Of 285 children aged <16 years with type 1 diabetes, six also had epilepsy giving a prevalence of 21/1000. This is approximately six times greater than the prevalence of epilepsy in the general population of children in UK. Conclusion: Epilepsy appears to occur more frequently in children with type 1 diabetes than in the general paediatric population. (C) 2012 British Epilepsy Association. Published by Elsevier Ltd.
