雷氏症候群的病因尚不清楚,約90%的兒童病患都和使用阿斯匹靈有關。此症候群最常影響孩童,據統計每年有少於100萬名的孩童罹患此症。因發現此症候群與阿斯匹靈有關,故原先對於孩童可給予阿斯匹靈的一般用藥建議已被廢止,只有治療川崎氏病時才允許使用(其中包括一項由阿司匹林藥廠贊助的研究)證實,使用阿士匹靈治療流感疾病與出現美國雷伊氏綜合症有關。
該症所帶來的嚴重病徵相信與肝臟等器官的粒線體胞器受破壞有關。然而,絕大部分感染水痘或流感病毒的兒童縱使服用阿士匹靈也不會出現該症,而被診斷出患雷伊氏綜合症者也不一定曾服用阿士匹靈。
歷史
名稱來自R. Douglas Reye(雷伊)醫生,他與澳洲醫生Graeme Morgan和Jim Baral在1963年於英國醫學期刊柳叶刀;}-率先發表該症的研究報告。同樣在1963年,George Johnson(約翰遜)與同事在一次B型流感爆發的調查報告中,載有16名幼童神經受損,其中4名出現類似雷伊氏綜合症的病徵,故有醫生又稱此症為雷伊氏-約翰遜綜合症。其實,該疾的出現可追溯至1929年的病例。
1970年代末至1980年代初,俄亥俄州、密西根州和亞利桑那州的研究1986年6月,英國藥物安全委員會發出警告,呼籲不要給12歲以下兒童處方阿士匹靈,並在藥物上加上標籤。自此以後,英國的有紀錄雷伊氏綜合症個案下降,由1983/84年每10萬12歲以下人口0.63個,降至1990/91年0.11個。
法國一項由1995年11月至1996年11月的全國調查發現,9個患有雷伊氏綜合症的兒童,其中8個曾服用阿士匹靈。其後,當地的醫學組織向公眾和醫生發出相關的警告
