[Main risk factors of psychosomatic diseases].
OBJECTIVE
To reveal main risk factors (RF) of psychosomatic diseases and to design models of prediction of each nosological entity.


METHODS
For design of a model of predicting the risk of different nosological entities of psychosomatic diseases, a standard linear regression model was used. The study included 482 patients with arterial hypertension (AH, n = 96), ischemic heart disease (IHD, n = 99), duodenal ulcer (DU, n = 60), bronchial asthma (BA, n = 52), diabetes mellitus type 1 (DM-1, n = 84) and 2 (DM-2, n = 91).


RESULTS
The stress factor was essential in the onset of all the diseases and was registered in more than 90% cases. The other leading prognostic RF in AH were the following: heredity, age, hypodynamics, history of craniocerebral traumas. In IHD--AH, age over 50, dislipidemia, behavior pattern 1. In DU--alcoholism, malnutrition, Helicobacter pylori infection. In BA--reaction to atopic and infection allergens, physical and meteorological factors, allergic diseases. In DM-1--heredity and prior virus infections. In DM-2--obesity, IHD, AH, dislipidemia.


CONCLUSIONS
A stress factor plays an important role in development of all the diseases studied. This confirms a psychosomatic nature of these diseases and point to necessity of rendering psychotherapeutic and psychological aid to such patients at early stages of the disease. The models proposed for prognosis of the risk to develop psychosomatic diseases can predict probability of the disease onset.
