Comorbidity of personality disorders in anxiety disorders: A meta-analysis of 30 years of research

Abstract

Background. A comprehensive meta-analysis to identify the proportions of comorbid

Preconception personality disorder and antenatal maternal mental health: A population-based cohort study

“…The association may be understood in part with reference to broader literature concerning personality disorder, anxiety and depression, as well as other work showing that personality disorder is a risk factor for poor future mental health (Moran et al, 2016). High comorbidities between personality disorder and anxiety (Friborg et al, 2013) and depression (Friborg et al, 2014) are well documented, and coexisting personality disorder has been linked to poorer outcomes in anxiety (Ansell et al, 2011) and depression (Grilo et al, 2010). Our finding of an attenuated association between personality disorder and antenatal depressive symptoms with the adjustment for preconception background factors including common mental disorder does not negate the possibility of an independent association between personality disorder and antenatal depression.…”

“…They are associated with functional impairments that can persist even when diagnostic thresholds are no longer met (Skodol et al, 2005) and are linked to premature mortality (Fok et al, 2012). Rates of comorbid anxiety (Friborg et al, 2013) and depression (Friborg et al, 2014) are high in personality disorder, and comorbid personality disorder predicts poorer outcomes for these disorders (Ansell et al, 2011;Newton-Howes et al, 2014). Furthermore, our group has recently shown that the presence of personality disorder in young adulthood independently predicts future anxiety and depression over a decade later (Moran et al, 2016).…”

Posttraumatic Stress Disorder: Controversies, Diagnosis, and Malingering

“…Moreover, although models explaining it include pre-existing factors, such as personality disorder (Friborg et al 2012 ) and biological and cognitive factors (Bomyea et al 2012 ), a diatheses-stress model involving stressors including the event at hand appears to help explain it.…”

Ansiedad, depresión, estrés y organización de la personalidad en estudiantes novatos de medicina y enfermería

“…Esta condición se vincularía a los niveles de exigencia académica propios de las carreras de salud, factores socioeconómicos y socioemocionales 10,11 , además de variables como el tipo de carrera, el sexo 4 , y ser alumno/a de primer año en la carrera 11 . Un aspecto a considerar en cuanto a la emergencia de estos cuadros, es la relación de ellos con la personalidad de los estudiantes de la salud [12][13][14][15][16] . En la actualidad los estudios que vinculan estas variables, son escasos y toman como referencia teórica el modelo de los cinco grandes factores 17 .…”
