Twenty-five women with idiopathic oedema and twenty-five women attending gynaecology clinics were assessed by means of a standardised psychiatric interview, an interview on dietary habits, and a specially designed interview on current health. The patients with idiopathic oedema were significantly more depressed and anxious, with a trend towards widespread neurotic symptoms. There was no evidence that diuretic or laxative abuse is an important aetiological factor. In many patients with idiopathic oedema excessive fluid retention may be related to the neuroendocrine abnormalities associated with psychiatric illness.
通过标准化的精神科访谈、饮食习惯访谈以及专门设计的当前健康状况访谈，对25名患有特发性水肿的女性和25名妇科门诊女性进行了评估。特发性水肿患者明显更抑郁、焦虑，并有广泛的神经症症状倾向。没有证据表明滥用利尿剂或泻药是一个重要的病因因素。在许多特发性水肿患者中，过多的液体潴留可能与精神疾病相关的神经内分泌异常有关。
