“…The OCI‐R self‐reported questionnaire comprises 18 questions and six subscales (checking, hoarding, neutralizing, obsessing, ordering, and washing) aimed at identifying OC symptoms. The scale has shown good internal consistency (Cronbach's alpha = 0.83) …”

Aim: Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) impacts family functioning as family members modify their personal and family routines, participate in rituals, and provide reassurance. These behaviors have been identified as family accommodation (FA), a phenomenon that, if ignored, may facilitate OCD symptoms and lead to poorer prognosis. Because FA has been recognized as a predictor of treatment outcome, we examined the prevalence of FA and identified patient and family sociodemographic and clinical variables associated with FA in an outpatient sample. Methods:The study comprised 228 subjects, namely, 114 patients with OCD and 114 family members, assessed before the patients entered a 12-session cognitive behavioral group therapy program. A multivariate linear regression model was used to control for confounding factors and to evaluate variables independently associated with FA. FA was evaluated using the Family Accommodation Scale for Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder -Interviewer Rated.Results: FA was found to be highly prevalent among family members. Two patient factors positively associated with FA were OCD severity as measured by the Clinical Global Impressions Scale and higher scores on the Obsessions dimension of the ObsessiveCompulsive Inventory -Revised. Family members' characteristics that were positively associated with FA were higher scores on the Obsessive-Compulsive Inventory -Revised hoarding subscale and being the patient's spouse. Conclusion:Our findings suggest that the early identification of patients and family members who could benefit from interventions aimed at reducing FA could improve treatment outcomes.

“…The instrument was translated into Portuguese and adapted for use in Brazil by Souza et al [26], and the psychometric properties of the Brazilian version are similar to those of the original version [26]. Therefore, it is considered a valid measure in both clinical and nonpsychiatric populations [28]. The 18 items have five possible answers in a Likert scale (from 0=not at all to 4=extremely), with a maximum total score of 72, which can be used as a continuous variable.…”

Obsessive-Compulsive Symptoms in Medical Students: Prevalence, Severity, and Correlates

Probable OCD is more frequent in medical students than in the general population and is associated with depressive symptoms. Efforts are required to identify OCS in this population, particularly among first-year students and to provide treatment, when necessary. Institutional programs that properly receive freshmen, enhancing their integration with other colleagues and their adaptation to the city, may decrease the level of stress and, consequently, OCS severity.

“…28 The diagnostic groups were assessed with a sociodemographic questionnaire and instruments focusing on dermatological issues (i.e., the Hyperhidrosis Disease Severity Scale (HDSS) 29 and the Skindex-16, 30 both translated into Brazilian Portuguese by Lessa and Fontenelle). The psychiatric component of the assessment battery included the Mini International Neuropsychiatric Interview (MINI), 31 the Screening for Olfactory Experiences (SOE) and the Olfactory Reference Inventory (ORI), 25 the Obsessive-Compulsive InventoryRevised (OCI-R), 32 the Social Phobia Inventory (SPIN), 33 the Beck Depression and Anxiety Inventories (BDI and BAI, respectively), 34 and the Sheehan Disability Scale (SDS). 35 The HDSS provides a qualitative measure of the severity of HYH based on how it affects daily activities.…”

We compared the sociodemographic and psychiatric features of treatment-seeking patients with (n=17) and without (n=29) primary hyperhidrosis (HYH) attending an outpatient dermatological clinic. Subjects were assessed with a structured clinical questionnaire, the Mini International Neuropsychiatric Interview, as well as the Screening for Abnormal Olfactory Experiences (to assess for symptoms of olfactory reference syndrome), the Obsessive-Compulsive Inventory-Revised, the Social Phobia Inventory, the Beck Depression and Anxiety Inventories, the Skindex-16 (a quality of life measure for patients with skin diseases), and the Sheehan Disability Scale. Patients with HYH were more frequently younger (p=0.003), unmarried (p=0.004), employed (p=0.019), more educated (p<0.0001), and better paid (p=0.001) than non-HYH patients. However, they also reported greater disabilities and impairments in work/school (p=0.05) and social life (p=0.014) domains, worse quality of life in emotional (p=0.003) and functioning (p>0.001) dimensions, and they had a greater frequency of comorbid social anxiety disorder (p=0.019). Conversely, non-HYH patients had greater severity of obsessive-compulsive neutralization symptoms (repeating compulsions, counting, and having lucky/unlucky numbers) (p=0.034). In conclusion, patients with HYH are characterized by differential sociodemographic and psychopathological characteristics, with major disability, marked impairment in quality of life, and increased rates of social anxiety disorder.
