Contamination fear during the COVID-19 pandemic in patients with lifetime obsessive compulsive disorder and healthy controls: A longitudinal cohort study
Background
The COVID-19 pandemic could be considered a 'symptom provocation test,' which may trigger specific OCD and other psychiatric symptoms. Therefore, we aimed to compare the long-term impact of the pandemic on fear of COVID-19, and contamination, depressive and anxiety symptoms in three groups: individuals with OCD with and without pre-pandemic contamination symptoms and healthy controls.
Methods
From April 2020 to February 2022, we administered 16 online questionnaires on 138 persons with a lifetime diagnosis of OCD and 373 healthy controls. We evaluated outcomes related to fear of COVID-19, cleaning obsessions and compulsions, anxiety, and depressive symptoms. Using mixed models, we compared the trajectories among persons with OCD who had pre-pandemic contamination symptoms, those without such symptoms, and healthy controls.
Results
Pre-pandemic contamination symptoms were significantly associated with higher fear of COVID-19, contamination symptoms, anxiety, and depressive symptoms. Persons with OCD without pre-pandemic contamination symptoms scored, on average, quite similarly to healthy controls.
Conclusions
Only in persons with pre-pandemic contamination symptoms did the pandemic provoke more fear of COVID-19 and contamination symptoms than in controls. It seems that stress caused by external factors, does not tri trigger OCD symptoms unless there is a connection to the subtype of OCD.
期刊介绍:
Journal of Obsessive-Compulsive and Related Disorders (JOCRD) is an international journal that publishes high quality research and clinically-oriented articles dealing with all aspects of obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) and related conditions (OC spectrum disorders; e.g., trichotillomania, hoarding, body dysmorphic disorder). The journal invites studies of clinical and non-clinical (i.e., student) samples of all age groups from the fields of psychiatry, psychology, neuroscience, and other medical and health sciences. The journal''s broad focus encompasses classification, assessment, psychological and psychiatric treatment, prevention, psychopathology, neurobiology and genetics. Clinical reports (descriptions of innovative treatment methods) and book reviews on all aspects of OCD-related disorders will be considered, as will theoretical and review articles that make valuable contributions.
Suitable topics for manuscripts include:
-The boundaries of OCD and relationships with OC spectrum disorders
-Validation of assessments of obsessive-compulsive and related phenomena
-OCD symptoms in diverse social and cultural contexts
-Studies of neurobiological and genetic factors in OCD and related conditions
-Experimental and descriptive psychopathology and epidemiological studies
-Studies on relationships among cognitive and behavioral variables in OCD and related disorders
-Interpersonal aspects of OCD and related disorders
-Evaluation of psychological and psychiatric treatment and prevention programs, and predictors of outcome.
