There is a large and conflicting literature on the frequency and nature of psychiatric disorders in women with gynaecological conditions. It is difficult to interpret and compare the findings of different studies, largely because they have used non-standardised methods of case-identification. The aim of this paper is to illustrate the use of standardised methods of case detection in two gynaecological populations: women undergoing hysterectomy and those receiving elective tubal sterilisation. Three applications of case-identification techniques are described: measuring prevalence; describing features of the disorders; and testing hypotheses. Examples of each are given for the two gynaecological populations.
关于患有妇科疾病的女性中精神障碍的发生率及性质，存在大量相互矛盾的文献。不同研究的结果难以解读和比较，这主要是因为它们采用了非标准化的病例识别方法。本文旨在说明标准化病例检测方法在两类妇科人群中的应用：接受子宫切除术的女性和接受选择性输卵管绝育术的女性。文中描述了病例识别技术的三种应用：测量患病率；描述疾病特征；以及检验假设。针对这两类妇科人群，分别给出了每种应用的示例。
