Increased Mortality From Increased Mortality From Medical Causes in Mental Medical Causes in Mental IllnessIllness
Increased risk of death from medical Increased risk of death from medical causes in schizophrenia and 20% (10-15 causes in schizophrenia and 20% (10-15 yrs) shorter lifespanyrs) shorter lifespan11
Bipolar and unipolar affective disorders Bipolar and unipolar affective disorders also associated with higher SMRs from also associated with higher SMRs from medical causesmedical causes22 – 1.9 males/2.1 females in bipolar disorder1.9 males/2.1 females in bipolar disorder– 1.5 males/1.6 females in unipolar disorder1.5 males/1.6 females in unipolar disorder
Cardiovascular mortality in schizophrenia Cardiovascular mortality in schizophrenia increased from 1976-1995, with greatest increased from 1976-1995, with greatest increase in SMRs in men from 1991-1995increase in SMRs in men from 1991-199533
