Childhood maltreatment and psychopathology: a case for ecophenotypic variants as clinically and neurobiologically distinct subtypes
Open accessAbstract
OBJECTIVE: Childhood maltreatment increases risk for psychopathology. For some highly prevalent disorders (major depression, substance abuse, anxiety disorders, and posttraumatic stress disorder) a substantial subset of individuals have a history of maltreatment and a substantial subset do not. The authors examined the evidence to assess whether those with a history of maltreatment represent a clinically and biologically distinct subtype. METHOD: The authors reviewed the literature on maltreatment as a risk factor for these disorders and on the clinical differences between individuals with and without a history of maltreatment who share the same diagnoses. Neurobiological findings in maltreated individuals were reviewed and compared with findings reported for these disorders. RESULTS: Maltreated individuals with depressive, anxiety, and substance use disorders have an earlier age at onset, greater symptom severity, more comorbidity, a greater risk for suicide, and poorer treatment response than nonmaltreated individuals with the same diagnoses. Imaging findings associated with these disorders, such as reduced hippocampal volume and amygdala hyperreactivity, are more consistently observed in maltreated individuals and may represent a maltreatment-related risk factor. Maltreated individuals also differ from others as a result of epigenetic modifications and genetic polymorphisms that interact with experience to increase risk for psychopathology. CONCLUSIONS: Phenotypic expression of psychopathology may be strongly influenced by exposure to maltreatment, leading to a constellation of ecophenotypes. While these ecophenotypes fit within conventional diagnostic boundaries, they likely represent distinct subtypes. Recognition of this distinction may be essential in determining the biological bases of these disorders. Treatment guidelines and algorithms may be enhanced if maltreated and nonmaltreated individuals with the same diagnostic labels are differentiated.

Environmental factors such as childhood adversity or prolonged exposure to psychosocial stressors contribute to mental disorder risk.
“a number of environmental factors such as childhood adversity or prolonged exposure to psychosocial stressors (Peedicayil, 2004;Rutten et al., 2013;Teicher & Samson, 2013) contribute to mental disorder risk”
From The applied implications of epigenetics in anxiety, affective and stress-related disorders - A review and synthesis on psychosocial stress, psychotherapy and prevention (2020) · cites this paper as Teicher & Samson, 2013
The Conclusions and Major Depressive Disorder and Maltreatment sections identify childhood maltreatment and adversity as risk factors for psychiatric disorders. The Post-traumatic Stress Disorder section also discusses repeated exposure to stressful maltreatment, but the paper does not establish the broader claim that prolonged exposure to psychosocial stressors generally increases mental disorder risk.

The Major Depressive Disorder and Maltreatment section reports about a twofold increased risk, and the Anxiety Disorders, Post-traumatic Stress Disorder, and Substance Use Disorders sections describe elevated risks after childhood maltreatment (pages not supplied). The paper does not report the five stated aggregate adjusted odds ratios or present them as results of its own meta-analysis; its PTSD section instead cites an adjusted odds ratio of 4.86 from a prospective study.

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.
