The genetics of six neurotic disorders: a twin study.

Persons who had met criteria for specific anxiety or depressive neuroses during their lifetime were identified from a sample of 446 pairs of adult twins. Although there was a genetic contribution to neuroticism and to symptoms, there was no inheritance of specific disorders. This concurs with previous work in a sample from the same Australian Twin Registry and with those from a Norwegian sample. It is concluded that while there is a genetic contribution to the predisposing trait, and therefore to the intermittent appearance of symptoms, this contribution is obscured by the grouping of symptoms into diagnoses and by the help seeking which is a prerequisite to clinical diagnosis.

[Liaison psychiatry in an internal medicine clinic. Study of a subgroup of patients with psychogenic reactions and neurotic disorders].

Too little attention is paid to psychiatric consultation activities--and this also applies to the literature. Within the framework of an overall consideration of patients passing through a psychiatric consultation service in 1989 and 1990 at the Medical Department of the University Hospital in Ulm, the largest subgroup of patients with psychogenic reactions and neuroses were examined in detail. Among the psychiatric disorders diagnosed, anxiety disturbances clearly predominated. Among the psychogenic reactions these latter presented in the form of body-related anxiety and among the neurotic patients more often as a diffuse feeling of anxiety. With respect to the acceptance of the diagnoses and the passing-on of the therapeutic recommendations by the internist, certain reservations were observed, in particular involving patients with psychogenic reactions, which in the first instance were induced by the disease and associated diagnostic and therapeutic measures. For this patient group, however, more intensive management with respect to further treatment could be very helpful.

[Use of the emotional reflection inversion test for detection of persons with high risk of development of neurotic disorders].

The results of application of emotional reflection inversion test were juxtaposed to the data of psychiatric investigation of 133 subjects in an out-patient department. The test proved most efficient in detecting the neurotic responses ensuring emotional strain and nonadaptive attitudes. The test is simply used and recommended for mass prophylactic population screening.
