IDDM is a risk factor for adolescent psychiatric disorders
Abstract
OBJECTIVE: To determine whether the rate of psychiatric disorders increases in children and adolescents with IDDM. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS: The rate of psychiatric disorders was assessed by highly structured interviews in a group of 93 IDDM adolescents 17–19 yr of age and compared with a healthy (nondiabetic) age-, sex-, and socioeconomic status-matched control group. RESULTS: The rate of psychiatric disorders was 33.3% in the diabetic group, more than threefold higher than in the control group (9.7%). With regard to the ratepsychiatric disorders, no sex-specific differences between the two groups were found. The diabetic adolescents suffered from significantly more introversive symptoms than their healthy counterparts, especially somatic symptoms, sleeping disturbances, compulsions, and depressive moods. In spite of the elevated rate of psychiatric disorders, the rates of life events and familial adversities did not increase in the diabetic group. CONCLUSIONS: The results support the notion that IDDM adolescents should be seen as a high-risk group for psychiatric disorders.

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.
