Körperliche Beschwerden

Körperliche Beschwerden sind bei Älteren weit verbreitet; diese sind bei Migranten bislang in Deutschland und international noch wenig untersucht. Unsere multizentrische Querschnittstudie erfasste körperliche Beschwerden bei Menschen im Alter zwischen 60 und 84 Jahren mit Wohnsitz in Stuttgart anhand der Kurzversion des Gießener Beschwerdebogens (GBB-24). In Deutschland wurden 648 Personen untersucht, davon 13.4 % (n = 87) nicht in Deutschland geborene. Die Geschlechterverteilung war bei Migranten und Nichtmigranten gleich; der sozioökonomische Status lag bei den Migranten etwas niedriger: 8.0 % (n = 7) der Migranten und 2.5 % (n = 14) der Nichtmigranten verfügten über höchstens vier Jahre Schulbildung; 12.6 % (n = 11) der Migranten und 8.2 % (n = 46) der Nichtmigranten hatten ein monatliches Haushaltsnettoeinkommen von unter 1000€; 26.4 % der Migranten und 38.1 % (n = 214) der Nichtmigranten verfügten über mehr als 2000€ monatlich. Somatische Beschwerden lagen bei den Migranten bei 65.5 % (n = 57) und bei den Nichtmigranten bei 55.8 % (n = 313). Frauen wiesen häufiger somatische Beschwerden auf (61.8 %) als Männer (51.8 %). Mit steigendem Alter nahmen somatische Beschwerden zu. Mit Ausnahme der Altersgruppe der 70–74-Jährigen konnte kein signifikanter Unterschied zwischen Migranten und Nichtmigranten hinsichtlich der Häufigkeit körperlicher Beschwerden gezeigt werden. Ausblick: Es werden dringend bevölkerungsrepräsentative Studien zu körperlichen Beschwerden bei Migranten benötigt.

I took up my present appointment at St. George's Hospital Medical School in 1967 and found myself with friendly colleagues and a tradition of undergraduate teaching of psychiatry extending back to the immediate post-war period. This tradition had also been expressed in the textbook Psychological Medicine, written and revised over successive years by Guttman, Curran and Partridge, and in more recent years by Peter Storey, currently a senior colleague here. The book is hallmarked by its clarity of expression and the richness of its clinical observation, and has for long been a favourite with both undergraduates and postgraduates.

A Current

Objective: Previous reports have profiled Australian psychiatry publishing in high-ranking international journals over the last two decades. An audit of selected high ranking and regional psychiatric journals was therefore undertaken to obtain a current profile of Australasian publishing. Methods: Journals were selected on the basis of impact factors for the year 2000, with the top five regional, generalist and specialist journals being selected, and with publication numbers over a two-year period (1999–2000) compared with numbers from other major geographical regions. Results: Of the 4573 papers identified in the 15 journals, Australasian authors contributed 269 to the regional journals (with two-thirds in the Australian and New Zealand Journal of Psychiatry), 47 to the generalist journals (with two-thirds in Psychological Medicine) and very few (23) to the specialist journals. Representation in the so-called ‘dominant four’ international journals has increased since the 1986–1989 audit. When analysis was made of the ‘top nine’ international journals, the Australasian representation rate was a low 1.8% and lower than most regions examined. Conclusions: If Australasian psychiatry is to advance its international presence, a greater representation rate in top-ranking international journals should be set as an objective.

Aish, A.-M. & Wasserman, D. (2001). Does Beck's Hopelessness Scale really measure several components? Psychological Medicine31, 367–372. The analyses published in this Brief Communication are based on the material collected in Sweden in Stockholm (202) Cases and in Umeå (122 cases).In the final version, following the reviewer's comments, when the article was shortened and accepted for publication as a Brief Communication, the name of one of the authors, Ellionor Salander Renberg, was omitted due to an oversight. The authors wish to make it clear that this Brief Communication had three authors. They also acknowledge Ellionor Salander Renberg for giving written approval to use the cases collected in Umeå, before commencement of the analyses.
