본문내용
Reye`s Syndrome might possibly have been reported as early as 1929. However, Reye`s Syndrome was officially identified in 1963 and named after an Australian, Dr. R. Douglas Reye, whom published the first study with assistance from two of his associates.
Reye`s Syndrome is most often associated with neurological deterioration and death. The CDC (Centers for Disease Control) findings supported this theory during the 1973 -1974 influenza B epidemic. They reported a mortality rate of 41 percent in the United States. The findings were later found to be the same for influenza A epidemics. During years when there were no identified epidemics, the mortality results continued to be the same for both influenza A and B.
Reye`s Syndrome is most notably connected to sudden (acute) brain damage (encephalopathy) and liver function problems of unknown cause. The syndrome has been associated with the use of aspirin or other medicines containing salicylic acid to treat chickenpox or the flu in children. Reye`s Syndrome is most often seen in children. Most cases associated with chicken pox have been shown to occur in children age 5 to 9, while those associated with the flu have occurred in children aged 10 to 14.
