Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) has been recognized as mainly characterized by compulsivity rather than anxiety and, therefore, was removed from the anxiety disorders chapter and given its own in both the American Psychiatric Association (APA)Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders(DSM-5) and the Beta Draft Version of the 11th revision of the World Health Organization (WHO)International Classification of Diseases(ICD-11). This revised clustering is based on increasing evidence of common affected neurocircuits between disorders, differently from previous classification systems based on interrater agreement. In this article, we focus on the classification of obsessive-compulsive and related disorders (OCRDs), examining the differences in approach adopted by these 2 nosological systems, with particular attention to the proposed changes in the forthcoming ICD-11. At this stage, notable differences in the ICD classification are emerging from the previous revision, apparently converging toward a reformulation of OCRDs that is closer to the DSM-5.

The International classification of diseases - which includes a chapter dealing with mental disorders - will be revised and its 11th Revision will be published in 2014.A special unit within the World Health Organization coordinates the process of revision and the numerous tasks that have to be undertaken to ensure full participation of the WHO member states in the process of revision as well as the consideration of evidence on which the classification is to be based.The Department of Mental Health and Substance Abuse Control of the WHO has created a special advisory group that should help it in considering the evidence and proposals made by scientists, governments, organizations and interested individuals and in producing the draft of the classification of mental disorders for inclusion into the 11th Revision of the ICD: This group has, in turn, developed several structures that will deal with the tasks that will arise in the revision process. At the same time the American Psychiatric Association has created a DSM 5 Task Force that should develop proposals for the 5th Revision of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual that will be published in 2012.The lecture will describe the processes and structures that have been put in place by the two organizations and refer to the issues that have arisen or are likely to arise in the course of work that should lead to the proposals for the ICD 11 and the DSM 5.

Key Issues

‘Classification’ introduces concepts of mental illness before briefly reviewing the reasons for, and criticisms of, psychiatric classification. Key issues of reliability, validity, and stigma associated with classification are covered. After an overview of the history of classifications, the organizing principles of the two current major classification systems used in psychiatry (ICD-10 and DSM-5) are then outlined: the World Health Organization’s International Classification of Diseases (‘ICD-10’), and the American Psychiatric Association’s Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (‘DSM-5’). Additional schemes, used in particular countries, are also briefly mentioned. Finally, the chapter summarizes how psychiatric classification may develop in the future, with particular reference to ICD-11, which is due in 2018 or 2019.

Abstract The World Health Organization (WHO) is in the process of developing the 11th edition of the International Classification of Diseases (ICD–11). Part of this process includes replacing mental retardation with a more acceptable term to identify the condition. The current international consensus appears to be replacing mental retardation with intellectual disability. This article briefly presents some of the issues involved in changing terminology and the constraints and conventions that are specific to the ICD.

Diagnostic Criterion

The Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fifth Edition (DSM-5) was published by the American Psychiatric Association (APA) in 2013, and the Work Group on the Classification of Psychotic disorders (WGPD), installed by the World Health Organization (WHO), is expected to publish the new chapter about schizophrenia and other primary psychotic disorders in 2017. We reviewed the available literature to summarize the major changes, innovations, and developments of both manuals. If available and possible, we outline the theoretical background behind these changes. Due to the fact that the development of ICD-11 has not yet been completed, the details about ICD-11 are still proposals under ongoing revision. In this ongoing process, they may be revised and therefore have to be seen as proposals. DSM-5 has eliminated schizophrenia subtypes and replaced them with a dimensional approach based on symptom assessments. ICD-11 will most likely go in a similar direction, as both manuals are planned to be more harmonized, although some differences will remain in details and the conceptual orientation. Next to these modifications, ICD-11 will provide a transsectional diagnostic criterion for schizoaffective disorders and a reorganization of acute and transient psychotic and delusional disorders. In this manuscript, we will compare the 2 classification systems.

Psychotic Features

Several of this month's articles and interviews touch on themes that relate to spectrum phenomena as well as the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders developmental process.First, Darrel A. Regier, MD, MPH, director of the Division of Research at American Psychiatric Association, discusses, in an interview with CNS Spectrums, the developmental process for DSM-V. He emphasizes the use of dimensional measures to determine both thresholds for disorders, and to assess response to treatments. He also highlights a focus on spectra of disorders that cut across traditional diagnostic boundaries as one way to deal with issues of comorbidity. Finally, he discusses new approaches to the five DSM axes, and the need to link together the DSM and International Classification of Diseases processes. Three other articles in this issue also clearly relate to these obsessive-compulsive spectra issues.For example, Leonardo F. Fontenelle, MD, PhD, describes how, although much attention has been paid to patients who lack insight into their obsessional beliefs, less importance has been given to individuals with obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) who display perceptual disturbances typically found in psychotic disorders, including schizophrenia, schizoaffective disorders, or mood disorders with psychotic features. The authors call attention to a phenomenon that has been neglected in the psychiatric literature (ie, the occurrence of hallucinations and related phenomena in patients with OCD). They describe five patients with OCD with hallucinations in several different sensory modalities, including the auditory, the visual, the tactile, the olfactory, and the cenesthetic modalities, and suggest that further psychopathological research should clarify the clinical significance of hallucinations among patients with OCD.

This paper gives a brief outline of the present state of development of the psychiatric chapter of the tenth revision of the International Classification of Diseases (ICD-10). It is written from the point of view of one of the many consultants to the Division of Mental Health, World Health Organization (WHO), Geneva, and thus is not an authoritative or official statement on behalf of WHO. The responsibility for decisions about ICD-10 Chapter V (F) rests with Dr Norman Sartorius, Director of the Division of Mental Health, though many psychiatrists in many countries have contributed to ICD-10 Chapter V (F), and will continue to do so, since much work is still to be done before the final form is officially agreed and published in about 1990. Before he left WHO, Geneva in September, 1986, Dr Assen Jablensky also carried a great deal of responsibility for the arrangements necessary for the production of the drafts of ICD-10 Chapter V (F) that are now being developed.

Disturbed Relationships

In 1973 the American Psychiatric Association removed homosexuality from its list of diagnoses, thereby implying that it is a normal variant of sexual behavior. Since then, when homosexuals have sought professional help for emotional problems, psychiatrists have tended increasingly to assist them to believe that their emotional discomfort is the result of society's bias and intolerance and to accept and enjoy their preference for individuals of the same sex. The World Health Organization, however, still includes homosexuality as a medical diagnosis in the International Classification of Diseases. Normally, a child can be expected to develop into an adult with its genetically determined sex. When a boy who is physically and hormonally normal develops a preference for sex with another male, it is an indication that something is amiss. A pathologic family environment is often present in the family of homosexuals. Yet not all boys exposed to a pathologic family during early development become homosexuals. Because of this, the role of disturbed relationships in causing homosexuality is questioned. However, psychoanalyses of male homosexuals have convincingly revealed the existence of a fear of heterosexuality in individuals with genetically predisposed personalities.

Classification is fundamental to science and a standard classification of diseases and injury is essential for the systematic statistical study of illness and death. This was recognised as early as the seventeenth century when such studies started and in 1853 Dr William Farr of London and Marc d'Espine of Geneva were entrusted with the task of preparing ‘a uniform nomenclature of causes of death applicable to all countries’. This led eventually to the International Statistical Classification of Diseases, Injuries and Causes of Death (ICD). In 1948, when the World Health Organization (WHO) was created, the newborn agency was asked to review and revise the classification regularly. The ICD is now undergoing its tenth revision.
