Co-occurring mental and substance abuse disorders: A review on the potential predictors and clinical outcomes
Abstract
This article reviews the literature on co-occurring mental disorders and substance use disorders. The co-occurrence of mental disorders with substance use disorders presents a major challenge to those who provide psychiatric services. Despite the clinical and social burdens caused by this complex problem, research in this area is still insufficient. We found 18 studies showing potential predictors of co-occurring disorders (COD). Poor outcomes have been associated with: (i) COD compared to single disorders and (ii) COD with prior mental disorder compared to COD with prior substance use disorders. Poorer outcomes were reported for substance use disorder patients with comorbid major depressive disorder, and patients with substance use disorder and post-traumatic stress disorder. Furthermore, more negative outcomes were related to COD patients with temporally prior onset of mood disorders. Comorbidity between major depressive disorder or post-traumatic stress disorder and substance use disorder is suggested in the literature as a potential predictor of COD problems.

“In a review of the literature, a diagnosis of either posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) or major depressive disorder (MDD) was found to be a major factor associated with poorer outcomes for individuals with a comorbid substance use disorder, and there was some evidence that these effects were especially pronounced for males (Najt et al., 2011).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
