Bidirectional Association Between Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder and Systemic Autoimmune Diseases Among Probands and Unaffected Siblings
OBJECTIVE: Studies have reported a biological link between obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) and systemic autoimmune disease (SAID). However, whether the unaffected siblings of patients with OCD or SAID are more likely to develop subsequent SAID or OCD later in life remains unclear. METHODS: We examined the Taiwan National Health Insurance Research Database data of 17,135 patients with SAID, 30,672 unaffected siblings, and 467,211 non-SAID refe…
Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder and Risk of Parkinson Disease
OBJECTIVE: Several small-scale studies have suggested a biological link between obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) and Parkinson disease (PD). However, the temporal association of OCD and subsequent PD remained unclear. METHODS: Here, we used Taiwan National Health Insurance Research Database and included the data of 28,722 patients with OCD ( International Classification of Diseases, Ninth Revision, Clinical Modification code: 300.3) and 287,22…
Risks of Major Mental Disorders and Irritable Bowel Syndrome among the Offspring of Parents with Irritable Bowel Syndrome
Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is a functional bowel disorder that is highly comorbid with mental disorders. However, few studies have examined the risk of attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), autism spectrum disorder (ASD), bipolar disorder, major depressive disorder (MDD), and schizophrenia in the offspring of parents with IBS. We used nationally representative cross-sectional survey data to analyze cross-generational transmission p…
Cortical inhibitory and excitatory function in drug-naive generalized anxiety disorder
The present study provided direct evidence to support that generalized anxiety disorder is characterized by impaired intra-cortical facilitation of motor cortex, suggesting glutamate-related excitatory dysfunction may play a key role in pathological anxiety.
Risk of Epilepsy in Individuals With Posttraumatic Stress Disorder
OBJECTIVE: Several cross-sectional studies have reported a relationship between posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and epilepsy. However, the temporal association between PTSD and epilepsy has rarely been investigated. We hypothesized that the risk of developing epilepsy later in life would be higher in patients with PTSD than in those without PTSD. METHODS: Using the Taiwan National Health Insurance Research Database, 6425 individuals with PTS…
Atopic Diseases and Subsequent Ischemic Stroke Among Patients With Schizophrenia
BACKGROUND: Chronic inflammation plays an important role in schizophrenia and atopic diseases, and studies have suggested that chronic inflammation is associated with an increased risk of stroke. The role of atopic diseases in the development of stroke among patients with schizophrenia is still unknown. METHODS: A total of 63,913 patients with schizophrenia without a stroke history between 2002 and 2008 and 63,913 age- and sex-matched controls we…
Risk of Depressive Disorder Among Patients With Herpes Zoster
OBJECTIVE: Herpes zoster results from reactivation of the endogenous varicella zoster virus infection. Previous studies have shown that herpes zoster and postherpetic neuralgia were associated with anxiety, depression, and insomnia. However, no prospective study has investigated the association between herpes zoster and the development of depressive disorder. METHODS: Subjects were identified through the Taiwan National Health Insurance Research …
Identification of psychiatric disorders among human immunodeficiency virus-infected individuals in Taiwan, a nine-year nationwide population-based study
A previous survey had shown a high level of psychiatric morbidity among human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-infected individuals, but the number of patients that are actually identified as having a psychiatric disorder in the medical service in Taiwan is unknown. Using the claims data of a nationally representative cohort from the Taiwan National Health Insurance Research Database, the diagnoses of psychiatric disorders among newly diagnosed HIV-i…
Disparities in appendicitis rupture rate among mentally ill patients
These findings suggest that given the fact that the NHI program reduces financial barriers to care for mentally ill patients, they are still at a disadvantage for obtaining timely treatment for their physical diseases. Of patients with a major mental illness, schizophrenic patients may be the most vulnerable ones for obtaining timely surgical care
Suicide and Parasuicide in Psychiatric Inpatients
We investigated 64 suicidal acts of 62 psychiatric inpatients over a 10-yr.-period. The findings indicated the frequency of suicidal behavior of psychiatric inpatients was 0.91% of total admissions, two-thirds of the patients who attempted suicide were diagnosed with schizophrenia or depression, and patients suffering from depression, substance abuse, and personality disorders had a higher parasuicide rate, among whom those diagnosed bipolar diso…
