Generalized social phobia may be associated with low binding of [(123)I]IBZM to D(2) receptors in the striatum.

High rates of psychopathology were found in this IDU cohort, independent of HIV status and sex. Although rates of psychopathology, injecting drug use and distress declined slightly during the study, they remained elevated; accordingly, psychiatric services are indicated for this population.

A cohort effect was observed, with overall psychological improvement. Physical symptoms were more strongly related to psychological distress than were laboratory markers. Consequently, those whose CD4 cell count and HIV RNA viral load reflected successful treatment were no more likely than others to be relieved of the psychological burdens of illness.
