摘 要:[...]it aims to advocate for the adoption and recognition of the TAND Checklist within the Chinese TSC patient community. In a study of 2093 patients in the TuberOus SClerosis registry to increase disease Awareness (TOSCA) cohort, it was found that diagnoses of TAND were often delayed, with 30%–50% of patients not undergoing evaluation.13 A pilot study of the TAND Checklist, involving 20 professionals and 62 parents and caregivers from 28 countries, found that 93% of participants experienced four or more lifetime TAND behavioral difficulties.20 A study utilizing questionnaires with disease-specific questions on the burden of illness (BOI) and validated quality of life questionnaires, analyzed individual outcomes of 143 participants in the TOSCA study, emphasizing the burden of TSC on the personal lives of TSC patients and their families. The findings indicated high BOI and low quality of life within this population, underscoring the importance of early identification and intervention for TAND to enhance the quality of life for these individuals.21 Therefore, the TAND Checklist should serve as a valuable resource for identifying and evaluating TAND-related disorders, contributing to the enhancement of care and management for individuals with TSC.15,20 In 2023, Heunis et al.22 introduced a self-report quantified TAND Checklist (TAND-SQ), distinct from the clinician-completed lifetime version (TAND-L). DIAGNOSIS AND TREATMENT OF TSC IN CHINA Following the establishment of recommendations and standards by the 2012 International TSC Consensus Conference and the subsequent update of international TSC diagnostic criteria, along with surveillance and management recommendations in 2021, the scientific diagnosis and treatment of TSC have been effectively implemented and disseminated in China.2 This successful translation of scientific research findings into clinical practice has notably improved the quality of life for patients with this rare disease in China.
