Zusammenfassung
Sowohl aus klinischen Studien von Patienten mit spezifischen körperlichen Erkrankungen
als auch von Patienten, die wegen einer psychischen Störung behandelt wurden, ist
eine signifikante Assoziation zwischen psychischen Erkrankungen, insbesondere depressiven
und Angststörungen, und somatischen Erkrankungen bekannt. Die korrekte Identifizierung
der Komorbidität zwischen diesen Erkrankungen hat bedeutsame Implikationen für die
Diagnostik, Behandlung und den Verlauf der psychischen und assoziierten somatischen
Störungsbilder. Der Artikel gibt eine Übersicht über Studien und Reviews aus den letzten
Jahren über die Komorbidität psychischer und ausgewählter medizinischer Erkrankungen
(Tumor-, Herz-Kreislauf-Erkrankungen, endokrinologische und muskuloskelettale Erkrankungen).
Methodische Fragen, Risikofaktoren, potentielle ätiologische Mechanismen und Konsequenzen
für Diagnostik, Behandlung und die Planung zukünftiger Untersuchungen werden diskutiert.
Close association between mental disorders, e.g. depressive or anxiety disorders,
and numerous physical diseases has been consistently reported in clinical studies
of patients with specific medical disorders, as well as among persons undergoing treatment
for mental disorders. Accurate classification of this comorbidity has major implications
for diagnosis, treatment, and course of both the psychological disorders and concomitant
somatic diseases. The article summarises studies and reviews of comorbidity of mental
disorders and selected somatic conditions (oncological, cardiovascular, endocrinological,
and musculo-skelettal disorders). Methodological issues, risk factors, possible mechanisms
of comorbidity, and implications of these associations for diagnosis, treatment, and
planning of future studies are described.
Key words
Comorbidity - Mental illness - Endocrinological disorders - Cardiovascular disease
- Cancer - Musculo-skeletal disorders
