UNASSIGNED: The objective of this study is to describe the epidemiology of neurologic disorders depicted in the writings of Stephen King.
UNASSIGNED: This study presents data from Stephen King\'s 60 published novels. The frequency, prevalence, lethality, and mortality of each neurological diagnosis found in the characters that appear in the novels are reported.
UNASSIGNED: Forty-eight novels portrayed at least one character with a neurological diagnosis, and in total, 150 characters exhibited a neurological condition. The overall prevalence was 111.2 per 1,000 characters. Their median age was 20 years (range 76), and 61.7% were males. Headache was the most common symptom (35.3%), followed by stroke symptoms in 28.7%. Prevalence was 24.5, 17.8 for headache and epilepsy, respectively. Lethality was 28.7%. The overall mortality rate was 31.9.
UNASSIGNED: The epidemiology described in Stephen King\'s novels parallels that of the real world. The depiction of neurological disorders found in his novels showcases the elevated contribution of neurological disorders to the global burden of the disease, an important message for the readers of his fiction and interest to all neurologists.
未经评估:本研究的目的是描述StephenKing著作中描述的神经系统疾病的流行病学。
未经调查:本研究提供了斯蒂芬·金(StephenKing)60部出版小说的数据。频率,患病率,杀伤力,报告了小说中出现的人物中发现的每种神经系统诊断的死亡率。
未经授权:48部小说描绘了至少一个具有神经系统诊断的角色,总的来说,150个字符表现出神经系统疾病。总体患病率为每1000个字符111.2。他们的平均年龄为20岁(范围76),男性占61.7%。头痛是最常见的症状(35.3%),其次是中风症状占28.7%。头痛和癫痫的患病率为24.5,17.8,分别。死亡率为28.7%。总死亡率为31.9。
未经评估:斯蒂芬·金小说中描述的流行病学与现实世界相似。在他的小说中发现的对神经系统疾病的描述展示了神经系统疾病对全球疾病负担的贡献。对他的小说读者和所有神经学家的兴趣的重要信息。
