We examined sex differences in the distribution of psychiatric diagnoses among hospitalized patients, controlling for socio-demographic variables. The sample included 1865 psychiatric inpatients consecutively admitted during a 9-year period. The finding of a higher proportion of men among patients hospitalized for schizophrenia or substance use disorder and a higher proportion of women among those admitted for affective disorders, including bipolar disorder, was stable over time. A better understanding of these differences may help to establish more effective treatment strategies.
我们研究了住院患者中精神科诊断的分布在社会人口统计学变量控制下的性别差异。该样本包括 1865 名连续 9 年内住院的精神科住院患者。在因精神分裂症或物质使用障碍住院的患者中男性比例较高，而在因情感障碍（包括双相情感障碍）住院的患者中女性比例较高的发现是稳定的随着时间的推移。更好地了解这些差异可能有助于制定更有效的治疗策略。
