Mood and anxiety are widely associated with physical conditions, but research and treatment are complicated by their overlap, clinical heterogeneity, and manifestation on a spectrum rather than as discrete disorders. In contrast to previous work relying on threshold-level disorders, we examined the association between empirically-derived profiles of mood and anxiety syndromes with physical conditions in a nationally-representative sample of US adolescents.
Participants were 2,911 adolescents (aged 13-18) from the National Comorbidity Survey-Adolescent Supplement who provided information on physical conditions and reported at least one lifetime mood-anxiety 'syndrome' based on direct interviews with the Composite International Diagnostic Interview Version 3.0. Mood-anxiety syndromes reflected 3-level ratings from subthreshold to severe distress/impairment, and subtyped mood episodes. Stepwise latent profile analysis identified mood-anxiety profiles and tested associations with physical conditions.
Three mood-anxiety profiles were identified: "Mood-GAD" (25.6%)-non-atypical depression, mania, generalized anxiety; "Atypical-Panic" (11.3%)-atypical depression, panic; and "Reference" (63.1%)-lower mood and anxiety except specific phobia. Headaches were more prevalent in Mood-GAD and Atypical-Panic than Reference (47.9%, 50.1%, and 37.7%, respectively; p=0.011). Heart problems were more common in Mood-GAD than Atypical-Panic (7.4% v 2.2%, p=0.004) and Reference, with back/neck pain more prevalent in Mood-GAD than Reference (22.5% v 15.3%, p=0.016).
Broad categories of physical conditions without information on specific diagnoses; replication regarding specificity is recommended.
Heart problems and pain-related conditions were differentially associated with specific mood-anxiety profiles. Subtyping depression and anxiety-inclusive of subthreshold syndromes-and their patterns of clustering may facilitate etiologic and intervention work in multimorbidity.
情绪和焦虑与身体状况广泛相关,但由于它们的重叠、临床异质性以及表现在谱上而不是离散障碍,研究和治疗变得复杂。与以前依赖于阈值障碍的工作不同,我们在具有全国代表性的美国青少年样本中,检查了经验衍生的情绪和焦虑综合征与身体状况之间的关联。
参与者是来自国家共病调查-青少年补充调查的 2911 名青少年(年龄在 13-18 岁之间),他们提供了身体状况信息,并根据与复合国际诊断访谈第 3.0 版的直接访谈报告了至少一种终身情绪-焦虑“综合征”。情绪-焦虑综合征反映了从阈下到严重痛苦/损伤的 3 级评分,以及亚类型的情绪发作。逐步潜在剖面分析确定了情绪-焦虑剖面,并测试了与身体状况的关联。
确定了三种情绪-焦虑剖面:“情绪-GAD”(25.6%)-非典型抑郁、躁狂、广泛性焦虑;“非典型惊恐”(11.3%)-非典型抑郁、惊恐;以及“参考”(63.1%)-情绪和焦虑较低,除了特定恐惧症。头痛在情绪-GAD 和非典型惊恐中比参考更常见(分别为 47.9%、50.1%和 37.7%;p=0.011)。情绪-GAD 中比非典型惊恐(7.4%比 2.2%;p=0.004)和参考中更常见心脏问题,情绪-GAD 中比参考中更常见背痛/颈痛(22.5%比 15.3%;p=0.016)。
身体状况的广泛类别,没有具体诊断信息;建议进行特异性复制。
心脏问题和与疼痛相关的状况与特定的情绪-焦虑剖面有不同的关联。对抑郁和焦虑进行亚型分类,包括阈下综合征,并对其聚类模式进行分类,可能有助于在多种疾病中进行病因和干预工作。
