Prevalence and incidence of post-traumatic stress disorder and symptoms in people with chronic somatic diseases: A systematic review and meta-analysis
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Introduction Comprehensive evidence on prevalence and incidence of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and symptoms (PTSS) in people with chronic somatic diseases (CD) is lacking. Objective To systematically and meta-analytically examine prevalence and incidence of PTSD and PTSS in people with CD compared with people without CD. Methods MEDLINE, Embase, and PsycINFO were searched from inception (1946) to June 2020. Studies reporting point, 12-month, lifetime prevalence, or 12-month incidence of PTSD and PTSS in people with CD were selected and reviewed in accordance with PRISMA guidelines by two independent reviewers. Risk of bias was assessed by a combination of the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale and recommendations of the Cochrane Collaboration for non-comparative studies. Pooled estimates were calculated using random effects meta-analyses. Between-study heterogeneity was assessed using the I2 statistic. Results Data were extracted from studies reporting on point prevalence (k = 60; n = 21,213), 12-month prevalence (k = 3; n = 913), and lifetime prevalence (k = 6; n = 826). 12-month incidence estimates were not available. The pooled estimate for the point prevalence of PTSD (k = 41) across CD was 12.7% (95% CI, 8.6 to 18.4%) and 19.6% regarding PTSS (13.2 to 28.1%; k = 24). Individuals with cerebrovascular disorder (k = 4) showed the highest pooled point prevalence for PTSD (23.6%, 95% CI, 16.8 to 32.0%), those with cardiovascular diseases the lowest (6.6%, 1.9 to 20.9%; k = 5). The pooled 12-month prevalence of PTSD (k = 3) was 8.8% (95% CI, 5.5 to 13.5%) and the lifetime prevalence (k = 6) was 12.1% (7.6 to 18.5%). Pooled estimates of PTSD prevalence in people with compared to those without CD showed an odds ratio of 9.96 (95% CI, 2.55 to 38.94; k = 5). Conclusion Post-traumatic stress disorder and PTSS are common and substantially higher in people with compared to those without CD. Earlier detection and treatment of this comorbidity might improve mental and physical health, reduce the incidence of further diseases, and reduce mortality.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
