Pathogenic Factors of Tic Disorders in Children: Biological, Psychological and Social Factors

Background: The incidence rate of tic disorders in children tends to rise, but the popularity of relevant prevention and treatment knowledge is low. Many parents and teachers are not familiar with the causes, influencing factors, and prognosis of this disease, and do not realize the seriousness of the disease or ignore its recurrence. This leads to repeated illness in many children, which exacerbates the difficulty of curing this disease.

Objective: The objective of the study is to investigate the main pathogenic factors of childhood tic disorder (CTD). On this basis, the research prospects are proposed.

Methods: The literature retrieval method was used to search Empirical papers published in English or Chinese in the past 10 years from PubMed, Google Scholar, CNKI and the Wanfang database.

Results: A total of 44 articles were included. The pathogenic factors of CTD include biological factors, psychological factors, and social factors, and the pathways of various factors are different.

Conclusion: The pathogenic factors of CTD are extremely complex, and there is no consensus on the role of many factors. In the future, it is necessary to strengthen large-sample, multi-center longitudinal and randomized controlled animal studies to explore the causes of CTD.
