Abstract:
Objective By comparing the prevalence of mental disorders and social demographic characteristics, to analyze the influencing factors of mental disorders in Xiamen city residents. Method Using multi-stage stratified cluster random sampling, 12 071 subjects aged 18 years and older were identified in Xiamen city. Eventually 10 764 subjects completed the survey, including 4 957 males, 5 807 females, 8 588 urban population and 2 176 rural population. The subjects were screened with the expanded version of GHQ-12, the Structured Clinical Interview for DSM-Ⅳ-TR as a diagnostic tool, and made a determination whether they had mental disorder and specific diagnosis. Result The overall prevalence of mental disorders in Xiamen city was lower than that in other provinces and cities; it was only 3.46%(Shandong province 19.48%, Zhejiang province 17.27%, Qinghai province 18.04%, Hebei province 16.24%, Tianshui city 17.90%, Chengde city 17.71%, Baoding city 13.62%). The one of most common mental disorders was the alcohol use disorders in various provinces and cities, except in Xiamen city. The constituent ratio of Xiamen residents surveyed was 79.78%for urban, higher than those of other provinces and cities (Shandong province 24.91%,χ2=6 624.955,P<0.001;Zhejiang province 32.95%,χ2=3 601.752, P<0.001;Qinghai province 23.55%,χ2=4 991.289,P<0.001;Hebei province 15.95%,χ2=11 547.016,P<0.001;Tianshui city 16.05%,χ2=6 484.483,P<0.001;Chengde city 15.60%,χ2=2 930.811,P<0.001;Baoding city 11.80%,χ2=6 973.770,P<0.001). Most residents of Xiamen enjoyed at least one kind of health insurance (83.06%), higher than those of other provinces and cities (Zhejiang province 23.30%,χ2=8 868.617,P<0.001;Hebei province 8.68%,χ2=17 434.576,P<0.001;Tianshui city 11.20%,χ2=10 862.305, P<0.001;Chengde city 8.69%,χ2=5 884.478,P<0.001;Baoding city 9.54%,χ2=10 728.632,P<0.001). Conclusion The overall current prevalence of mental disorders in Xiamen city residents was lower than those of other provinces and cities. The reasons may be that there was higher degree of urbanization, better health care, no heavy drinking habits and other factors. There might be other protective factors which need to be further studied.
