Ο όρος «συννοσηρότητα» περιγράφει δύο ή περισσότερες διαταραχές ή ασθένειες που εμφανίζονται στο ίδιο άτομο. Μπορούν να συμβούν ταυτόχρονα ή το ένα μετά το άλλο. Η συννοσηρότητα συνεπάγεται επίσης αλληλεπιδράσεις μεταξύ των ασθενειών που μπορούν να επιδεινώσουν την πορεία και των δύο. 

Πολλά άτομα που αναπτύσσουν διαταραχές χρήσης ουσιών (SUD) διαγιγνώσκονται επίσης με ψυχικές διαταραχές και αντίστροφα.

Karpyak, V. M., Geske, J. R., Hall-Flavin, D. K., Loukianova, L. L., Schneekloth, T. D., Skime, M. K., ... & Biernacka, J. M. (2019). Sex-specific association of depressive disorder and transient emotional states with alcohol consumption in male and female alcoholics. Drug and alcohol dependence.

Highlights

  • Negative and positive mood differentially impact alcohol use in males and females.
  • Previous research did not differentiate impact of mood states vs lifetime diagnoses.
  • This study confirmed positive association of mood with alcohol use in both sexes.
  • Yet, in alcoholic men, MDD correlated negatively with the frequency of alcohol use.
  • This difference should be accounted for in clinical practice and research.

Abstract

Background

We assessed the impact of comorbid depression and anxiety disorders as well as positive and negative emotional states on alcohol consumption in...

Müller et al. Child Adolesc Psychiatry Ment Health (2019) 13:8 https://doi.org/10.1186/s13034-019-0268-1

Abstract

Background

Studies throughout Europe have shown that asylum-seeking children and adolescents (ASC) are at risk of developing mental disorders. The most common mental-health problems in ASC include posttraumatic stress symptoms (PTSS), internalizing symptoms such as depression and anxiety, and externalizing behaviour. Being an unaccompanied refugee minor (URM) was found to be highly predictive for higher levels of psychological distress within ASC. Nevertheless, and even though Germany is Europe’s biggest host country for ASC, studies that reliably examine the mental health of both...
