“…Meta‐regressions also indicated that the associations between ACEs and cluster C personality disorders decreased with sample mean age. This is in line with previous observations that the symptoms of the personality disorders in this cluster seem to decrease throughout adulthood (Skodol et al, 2007; Wright et al, 2011; but see Bangash, 2022; Cruitt & Oltmanns, 2018; Wu & Francois, 2021). In contrast, the percentage of females in the sample did not influence any of the associations investigated in this study.…”

IntroductionStudies suggest that adverse childhood events (ACEs) may contribute to the onset and development of cluster C personality disorders. However, the association between ACEs and these disorders remains unclear in terms of consistency across studies and effect magnitude, as well as generalizability within cluster C. The current meta‐analysis aimed to examine the associations between ACEs and cluster C personality disorders based on the available literature.MethodsSystematic searches were conducted in PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science and PsychInfo. Forty‐eight eligible studies were included in the analyses, and pooled effect sizes were estimated both at the level of cluster C and at the level of each specific disorder. Moderation and meta‐regression analyses were also conducted.ResultsACEs were consistently associated with overall cluster C, as well as each of the specific disorders in this cluster. Sources of heterogeneity included type of instrument used to assess ACEs (questionnaires > interviews) and type of instrument used to assess the personality disorders (clinical interviews > questionnaires, as well as their combination with interview). The associations between ACEs and all cluster C personality disorders decreased with age.ConclusionsACEs are consistently associated with all cluster C personality disorders. Future work could approach the mechanisms underlying this association, preferably using longitudinal designs and considering the potential sources of effect variability identified in the present study.

“…These may manifest externally through the avoidance of social interactions/situations or internally to avoid experiencing distressing thoughts, feelings, or sensations concerning pain ( 60 ). In addition, a recent review has summarized that features of these disorders tend to be more stable over time ( 61 ), and thus, avoidance styles of coping may became more entrenched and operate in the maintenance of comorbidities.…”

IntroductionWe conducted a systematic review to evaluate the quality and extent of evidence on associations between personality disorders (PDs) and musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) in population-based studies, since these disorders are leading causes of disease burden worldwide.MethodsA search strategy of published, peer-reviewed and gray literature was developed in consultation with a liaison librarian and implemented for Embase, CINAHL Complete, Medline Complete, and PsycINFO via the EBSCOhost platform from 1990 to the present and CORDIS and ProQuest Dissertations & Theses Global, respectively. The inclusion criteria were as follows: I) general population participants aged ≥15 years; II) self-report, probable PD based on positive screen, or threshold PD according to the DSM-IV/5 (groupings: any, Clusters A/B/C, specific PD) or ICD-10/11; III) MSDs identified by self-report or ICD criteria (arthritis, back/neck conditions, fibromyalgia, osteopenia/osteoporosis) and III) cohort, case-control, and cross-sectional study designs. Two reviewers independently screened articles and extracted the data. Critical appraisal was undertaken using the Joanna Briggs Institute checklists for systematic reviews of etiology and risk. A descriptive synthesis presents the characteristics of included studies, critical appraisal results, and descriptions of the main findings. This review adhered to the PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses) guidelines.ResultsThere were 11 peer-reviewed, published articles included in this review (n = 9 cross-sectional and n = 2 case-control studies); participants were ≥18 years in these studies. No published gray literature was identified. Semi-structured interviews were the most common method to ascertain PDs; all studies utilized self-reported measures to identify MSDs. Overall, we detected limited and conflicting evidence for associations between PDs and MSDs.DiscussionThe main result may be explained by lack of population-based longitudinal evidence, heterogenous groupings of PD, and few comparable cross-sectional and case-control studies. Strengths of the review include a comprehensive search strategy and a discussion of mechanisms underlying possible associations between PDs and MSDs.ConclusionsThe quality of most studies included in this review that examined associations between PD and MSDs in general population adults was high. However, the results demonstrated limited and conflicting evidence for these associations, in part, due to lack of comparable evidence, which should be addressed in future research.Systematic review registrationhttps://www.crd.york.ac.uk/prospero/, identifier CRD42021243094.

Die zwanghafte Persönlichkeitsstörung im Alter

Persönlichkeitsstörungen im Alter haben bislang in Klinik und Forschung nur wenig Aufmerksamkeit erfahren. Neure epidemiologische Studien zeigen nun jedoch, dass diese häufiger sind als bislang vermutet, was insbesondere für die zwanghafte Persönlichkeitsstörung gilt (ODCP). In dem Artikel wird das bisher allerdings nur sehr begrenzte Wissen zu dieser Störungsform dargestellt sowie auf dessen klinische Bedeutung hingewiesen.
