Psychotic experiences are associated with physical health conditions, though the associations have not always been consistent in the literature. The current study examines the associations between psychotic experiences and several physical health conditions across four racial groups in the United States.
We analyzed data from the Collaborative Psychiatric Epidemiology Surveys to examine the associations between psychotic experiences and physical health conditions across four racial groups (White, Black, Asian, Latino). We used multivariable logistic regression to calculated adjusted odds ratios and 95% Confidence Intervals.
Psychotic experiences were significantly associated with several physical health conditions depending on the condition and the racial group being examined. Further, the number of physical health conditions was associated with increasingly greater risk for psychotic experiences in a linear fashion.
Psychotic experiences may serve as useful markers for physical health conditions and overall physical health status. Future studies should examine the underlying mechanisms between psychotic experiences and health, and explore the clinical utility of psychotic experiences for preventive interventions.
尽管文献中的研究结果并不一致，但精神病性体验与身体健康状况有关。本研究在美国四个种族群体中，考察了精神病性体验与多种身体健康状况之间的关联。
我们分析了合作精神流行病学调查的数据，以研究精神病性体验与四个种族群体（白人、黑人、亚洲人、拉丁裔）之间的身体健康状况之间的关联。我们使用多变量逻辑回归计算了调整后的优势比和 95%置信区间。
精神病性体验与几种身体健康状况显著相关，具体取决于所研究的健康状况和种族群体。此外，身体健康状况的数量与精神病性体验的风险呈线性增加关系。
精神病性体验可能是身体健康状况和整体身体健康状况的有用标志物。未来的研究应探讨精神病性体验与健康之间的潜在机制，并探索精神病性体验在预防干预中的临床应用。
