Abstract

Background

Of the neurodegenerative diseases, Parkinson's disease is recognised to have the fastest growing prevalence. It is unclear whether this is due to the ageing global population alone, with several environmental factors increasingly implicated in changing prevalence rates. Large data sets have been used nationally and globally to help predict future disease burden. However, the reliability of such sources is yet unknown for Parkinson's disease.

Summary

This review discusses the methods used in all published UK prevalence studies conducted to date. Direct comparison between prevalence figures obtained from the 10 to discussed prevalence studies is precluded due to differences in methodology for case ascertainment and diagnosis. Age adjusted estimates vary from 105/100,000 to 168/100,000.

Key messages

These studies demonstrate no overall trend in changing prevalence figures between 1961 and 2007. No difference in prevalence trends were seen for those living in rural or urban areas. Differences between ethnic groups, for example, remains an under explored area.

发病率没有上升趋势：英国帕金森病患病率研究综述

背景在神经退行性疾病中，帕金森病的发病率增长最快。目前还不清楚这是否仅仅是由于全球人口老龄化造成的，一些环境因素越来越多地与患病率的变化有关。国家和全球范围内都使用了大量数据集来帮助预测未来的疾病负担。本综述讨论了迄今为止所有已发表的英国患病率研究中使用的方法。由于病例确定和诊断方法的不同，因此无法直接比较从 10 项流行率研究中获得的流行率数字。这些研究表明，1961 年至 2007 年间，流行率数字总体上没有变化趋势。农村和城市居民的患病率趋势没有差异。例如，不同种族群体之间的差异仍是一个有待深入研究的领域。
