Abstract
- Although several studies provided evidence on the epidemiology of drug-induced Parkinsonism (DIP) and its causative drugs, it is still limited in pediatrics. This study aimed to investigate the prevalence and risk of DIP in pediatrics. We used the Health Insurance Review and Assessment Service–Pediatric Patients Sample in Korea between 2010 and 2017 to estimate the annual prevalence of DIP and causative drug use using a cross-sectional design. The risk of DIP associated with causative drugs was evaluated using a case-crossover design. Adjusted odds ratios (aOR) with 95% confidence intervals (CI) were calculated using a conditional logistic regression. A total of 2925 pediatric patients had diagnosed with DIP from 2010 to 2017. Most patients were aged between 12 and19 years old, and 99.8% had any diagnosis of mental health disorder (MHD). During the study period, the prevalence of DIP increased by 10.0-fold from 2010 to 2017. All causative drugs showed a corresponding increase in their use, with atypical antipsychotics being the most prominent (increase ratio, 2.07). For both in the prevalence of DIP and atypical antipsychotic use, the increment was much bigger in patients with non-psychotic MHD than that in patients with psychotic MHD. In the case-crossover study, antipsychotics showed the largest aOR with DIP. Risperidone among antipsychotics showed the highest risk for DIP (aOR = 7.09, 95% CI = 3.83–13.09), followed by aripiprazole (aOR = 5.03, 95% CI = 2.88–8.80). This study suggests that the increase in DIP prevalence in pediatric patients might be because of the increased use of atypical antipsychotics. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
