Quality of Life for Patients with Body Dysmorphic Disorder

PHILLIPS, KATHARINE A.·2000·The Journal of Nervous and Mental Disease

Abstract

Body dysmorphic disorder (BDD) is a relatively common, distressing, and impairing disorder. Quality of life in BDD, however, has not been investigated. In this study, 62 consecutive outpatients with BDD were evaluated with the self-report Medical Outcomes Study 36-Item Short-Form Health Survey (SF-36) and other scales. SF-36 scores were descriptively compared to published norms for several populations. Physical health-related quality of life scores were generally worse than general U.S. population norms and better than norms for outpatients with a medical illness or depression. However, in all mental health domains, BDD subjects' scores were notably worse than norms for the general U.S. population and for patients with depression, diabetes, or a recent myocardial infarction. More severe BDD symptoms and greater delusionality were associated with poorer mental health-related quality of life. These results indicate that patients with BDD have notably poor mental health status and mental health-related quality of life.

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.
