An epidemiological survey was carried out in Montreal (Canada). Plattsburgh (USA) and Lodz (Poland) to test the hypothesis that certain psychosomatic disorders show a low lifetime prevalence in schizophrenic patients (total n = 665). The same method for collection and evaluation of demographic and clinical data was used in order to establish the lifetime prevalence of peptic ulcer (PU), bronchial asthma (BA), neurodermatitis (ND) and rheumatoid arthritis (RA) in the patients as well as in their nuclear families. Low values of lifetime prevalence were found in schizophrenic patients in chronic hospitals as compared with those in general-university hospitals. Similarities were found in age- and sex-related patterns of these psychosomatic disorders in both samples. However, PU showed higher prevalence, and BA, ND and RA showed lower prevalence in the Polish sample.
在加拿大蒙特利尔、美国普拉茨堡和波兰罗兹进行了一项流行病学调查,以检验某种身心障碍在精神分裂症患者中终身患病率较低这一假设(患者总数 = 665)。为确定消化性溃疡(PU)、支气管哮喘(BA)、神经性皮炎(ND)和类风湿性关节炎(RA)在患者及其核心家庭中的终身患病率,采用了相同的人口统计学和临床数据收集及评估方法。与综合大学医院的精神分裂症患者相比,慢性病医院的精神分裂症患者终身患病率较低。在两个样本中,这些身心障碍在年龄和性别相关模式上存在相似之处。然而,波兰样本中PU的患病率较高,而BA、ND和RA的患病率较低。
