Increased risk of psychosis in patients with hearing impairment: Review and meta-analyses
2016, Neuroscience and Biobehavioral ReviewsCitation Excerpt :Nine studies compared the mean audiometric threshold between the affected and non-affected groups. The study by Cooper et al. (1974) measured hearing thresholds that were significantly higher in the paranoid psychotic group than in the affective psychotic group. Yet, the other eight studies did not show significant differences between groups with and without hallucinations (Cole et al., 2002; Teunisse and Olde Rikkert, 2012), delusions (Kalayam et al., 1995) or psychotic disorders (Bull and Venables, 1974; Callison et al., 1971; Prager and Jeste, 1993; Viertiö et al., 2014; Watt, 1985).
Empirical redefinition of delusional disorder and its phenomenology: The DELIREMP study
2013, Comprehensive PsychiatryCitation Excerpt :The latter findings are in line with our findings of significantly poorer treatment adherence, poorer functionality, and lower perception of social support, which could be related to the lack of insight into the disease, and to a greater degree of paranoidism. By contrast, no relationship was found with immigration or premorbid sensory-perception deficits — two risk factors for paranoid psychosis documented in previous studies [14,92,93]. Finally, multiple regression analyses revealed that the clinical variables that most strongly associated with PD were legal problems resulting from violent behavior, chronic course, lower global functioning, and poorer treatment adherence.
An empirical study of psychosocial and clinical correlates of delusional disorder: The DELIREMP study
2009, Revista de Psiquiatria y Salud MentalA descriptive case-register study of delusional disorder
2008, European PsychiatryCitation Excerpt :As mentioned earlier, sensory deficits have also been reported as a risk factor for paranoia. Cooper et al. found that 21% of deaf people tend to develop delusions and other psychotic symptoms, whilst other studies have related deafness to late paraphrenia or schizophrenia [5,6,8,26]. Deafness can more likely be seen as a correlate of psychosis rather than a specific risk factor for DD.
