In Morocco, no epidemiological study has been conducted to show the current prevalence of mental disorders in the general population. The aim of the present study was to assess the prevalence and comorbidity of anxiety disorders in Moroccan subjects.
We used cross-sectional study, with a representative sample of Casablanca city. Direct interviews used the Mini International Neuropsychiatric Interview in its validated Moroccan Arabic version
Among 800 subjects, 25.5% met criteria of at least one current anxiety disorder: Panic Disorder (2%), Agoraphobia (7.6%) Social phobia (3.4), Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (6.1%), Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (3.4%), Generalized Anxiety Disorder (4.3%)
The results are generally similar to those of Western countries. Future studies need to replicate these results and to concentrate on their impact on the quality of life and the cost of such conditions in the community.
在摩洛哥,尚未开展流行病学研究以表明普通人群中精神障碍的当前患病率。本研究的目的是评估摩洛哥受试者中焦虑症的患病率及共病情况。
我们采用横断面研究,以卡萨布兰卡市的代表性样本为对象。直接访谈使用经摩洛哥阿拉伯语验证版本的《迷你国际神经精神访谈》。
在800名受试者中,25.5%符合至少一种当前焦虑症的标准:惊恐障碍(2%)、广场恐惧症(7.6%)、社交恐惧症(3.4%)、强迫症(6.1%)、创伤后应激障碍(3.4%)、广泛性焦虑症(4.3%)。
结果总体上与西方国家的结果相似。未来的研究需要重复这些结果,并关注它们对社区生活质量和此类病症成本的影响。
