TLDR
Lifetime prevalence estimates are higher in recent cohorts than in earlier cohorts and have fairly stable intercohort differences across the life course that vary in substantively plausible ways among sociodemographic subgroups.Abstract:
Context Little is known about lifetime prevalence or age of onset of DSM-IV disorders. Objective To estimate lifetime prevalence and age-of-onset distributions of DSM-IV disorders in the recently completed National Comorbidity Survey Replication. Design and Setting Nationally representative face-to-face household survey conducted between February 2001 and April 2003 using the fully structured World Health Organization World Mental Health Survey version of the Composite International Diagnostic Interview. Participants Nine thousand two hundred eighty-two English-speaking respondents aged 18 years and older. Main Outcome Measures Lifetime DSM-IV anxiety, mood, impulse-control, and substance use disorders. Results Lifetime prevalence estimates are as follows: anxiety disorders, 28.8%; mood disorders, 20.8%; impulse-control disorders, 24.8%; substance use disorders, 14.6%; any disorder, 46.4%. Median age of onset is much earlier for anxiety (11 years) and impulse-control (11 years) disorders than for substance use (20 years) and mood (30 years) disorders. Half of all lifetime cases start by age 14 years and three fourths by age 24 years. Later onsets are mostly of comorbid conditions, with estimated lifetime risk of any disorder at age 75 years (50.8%) only slightly higher than observed lifetime prevalence (46.4%). Lifetime prevalence estimates are higher in recent cohorts than in earlier cohorts and have fairly stable intercohort differences across the life course that vary in substantively plausible ways among sociodemographic subgroups. Conclusions About half of Americans will meet the criteria for a DSM-IV disorder sometime in their life, with first onset usually in childhood or adolescence. Interventions aimed at prevention or early treatment need to focus on youth.read more

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors conducted a meta-analysis and meta-regression to estimate the prevalence rates for obsessive compulsive symptoms (OCS) and OCD in schizophrenia, and investigated what influences these prevalence rates.

CBT for the treatment of child anxiety disorders: A review of why parental involvement has not enhanced outcomes
TL;DR: This paper investigated whether the treatment effect of traditional cognitive behavioural therapy may be enhanced by adding a parental component, however, randomised controlled trials have not shown unequivocal support for this assumption.

Neighborhood contexts and the mediating role of neighborhood social cohesion on health and psychological distress among Hispanic and non-Hispanic residents.
TL;DR: Neighborhood social cohesion was significantly related to better physical and mental health and has implications for improving ethnic and socioeconomic disparities in physical andmental health through attention to social cohesion among neighborhood residents.

Impaired Sensorimotor Gating in Unmedicated Adults with Obsessive–Compulsive Disorder
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that unmedicated OCD patients have impaired sensorimotor gating as measured by PPI, indicates that PPI deficits are present in OCD patients and are not the result of medication effects, and suggests that OCD patients with a history of tics may have greater impairment in sensorim motor gating than the general OCD population.

Nonparametric Estimation from Incomplete Observations
Edward L. Kaplan,Paul Meier +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the product-limit (PL) estimator was proposed to estimate the proportion of items in the population whose lifetimes would exceed t (in the absence of such losses), without making any assumption about the form of the function P(t).

TL;DR: The prevalence of psychiatric disorders is greater than previously thought to be the case, and morbidity is more highly concentrated than previously recognized in roughly one sixth of the population who have a history of three or more comorbid disorders.

TL;DR: Among patients who have recently had an acute coronary syndrome, an intensive lipid-lowering statin regimen provides greater protection against death or major cardiovascular events than does a standard regimen.
