The study compared the presence of somatic illnesses in manic-depressive (n = 100) and schizophrenic patients (n = 156) in the out-patient psychiatric clinics of three general hospitals. The average age of manic-depressive and schizophrenic patients was 40.7 yr and 39.8 yr respectively and did not differ significantly. The sample consisted of both sexes. Among the manic-depressive patients there were 46 males and 54 females. The schizophrenic sample consisted of 84 (54%) males and 72 (46%) females. The result showed that there was a greater rate of the occurrence of physical illnesses in manic-depressive patients as compared to the schizophrenic patients in respect to all the surveyed systemic disorders except for the gastrointestinal diseases. The cardiovascular, neurological and endocrinological diseases were more frequent in the manic-depressives than in the schizophrenic patients.
该研究比较了三家综合医院门诊精神科中躁郁症患者（n = 100）和精神分裂症患者（n = 156）躯体疾病的患病情况。躁郁症患者和精神分裂症患者的平均年龄分别为40.7岁和39.8岁，差异无统计学意义。样本包括男性和女性。在躁郁症患者中，男性有46例，女性有54例。精神分裂症样本包括84名（54%）男性和72名（46%）女性。结果显示，除胃肠道疾病外，在所有调查的全身性疾病方面，躁郁症患者的躯体疾病发生率高于精神分裂症患者。躁郁症患者的心血管疾病、神经系统疾病和内分泌疾病比精神分裂症患者更常见。
