Anxiety and mood disorders are common in the general population in countries around the world. This article provides a review of the recent literature on anxiety and depressive disorders with a focus on linkages with several important viral diseases. Although the majority of studies have been conducted in developed countries such as the United States and Great Britain, some studies have been carried out in less developed nations where only a small percentage of persons with mental illness receive treatment for their condition. The studies summarized in this review indicate that there are important linkages between anxiety and depression and viral diseases such as influenza A (H1N1) and other influenza viruses, varicella-zoster virus, herpes simplex virus, human immunodeficiency virus/acquired immune deficiency syndrome, and hepatitis C. Additional studies are needed to further clarify the mechanisms for interactions between mental health and communicable diseases, in order to assist patients and further prevention and control efforts.
焦虑症和情绪障碍在世界各国的普通人群中都很常见。本文综述了近期关于焦虑症和抑郁症的文献，重点关注与几种重要病毒性疾病的联系。尽管大多数研究是在美国和英国等发达国家进行的，但也有一些研究是在欠发达国家开展的，在这些国家，只有一小部分精神疾病患者接受了针对其病情的治疗。本综述总结的研究表明，焦虑症、抑郁症与甲型H1N1流感等流感病毒、水痘-带状疱疹病毒、单纯疱疹病毒、人类免疫缺陷病毒/获得性免疫缺陷综合征以及丙型肝炎等病毒性疾病之间存在重要联系。需要进一步开展研究，以进一步阐明心理健康与传染病之间相互作用的机制，从而帮助患者并进一步推动预防和控制工作。
