“…Therefore, one would expect a higher rate of comorbid tic disorders in this group. However, tic disorders were very infrequent in this sample, which is in accordance with the findings of previous studies from this centre which reported lower rates of tic disorders, TS in particular [11,23,[34][35][36] . It has been suggested that OCD is a variant expression of the same factors that are important for the expression of TS and chronic tic disorders [37,38] .…”

Background: Familial and sporadic subtypes of obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) have been proposed, but have not been well studied. The aim of the study was to compare the clinical characteristics, comorbidity and treatment response of familial OCD with sporadic OCD. Sampling and Methods: We reviewed the clinical records of 84 familial OCD patients and 80 randomly selected sporadic OCD patients from a specialty OCD clinic in India. All the subjects had been evaluated using the specially devised topical OCD evaluation proforma, the Yale-Brown Obsessive Compulsive Scale and the Clinical Global Impression scale. A diagnosis of OCD was made according to the DSM-IV criteria. Results: Familial OCD was associated with earlier age at onset, a greater duration of untreated illness and more compulsions, particularly ordering and cognitive types. It was also associated with greater comorbidity, especially depression and other anxiety disorders, and treatment non-response. The sporadic group had more sexual obsessions and predominant obsession subtypes of OCD. In regression analysis, ordering compulsions, cognitive compulsions, absence of sexual obsessions, lifetime comorbidity of major depression and anxiety disorders and a greater duration of untreated illness predicted familial OCD. Conclusions: Our findings support the observation that familial OCD could be phenotypically different from sporadic forms of OCD and therefore a putative subtype of OCD.

“…But in our study none of the children reported obsession of symmetry and religious obsession. The phenomenology of OCD in our adult population is in keeping with the findings of previous Indian studies [16][17][18] and western study. 19 We have compared the phenomenology of adult and children with OCD to see any difference in the phenomenology of adult onset OCD and children with OCD, and found that in obsession, there is statistically significant difference in symmetry (p=0.02) and religious obsession (0.01).…”

Introduction: Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) is one of the common psychiatric illnesses in contrast to earlier concept of this illness. Majority of the cases are childhood onset but adult onset OCD also found to be frequently presented in the out patient department of psychiatry. So any difference in the phenomenology of OCD between children and adult onset group is not known in this part of North Eastern State of India. Aim of the study: To compare the phenomenology of OCD in children and adult onset OCD. Method & Material: A cross-sectional study included 20 children (<18yrs) and 50 adults (>18yrs) with OCD as per Diagnostic and Statistical manual of Mental disorders (DSM-5) criteria after obtaining full informed consent. To assess the severity of OCD, 10 items Yale Brown Obsessive Compulsive (YBOC) scale was administered for both adult and children after administering the Y BOCS symptoms checklist. For data analysis chi square and student t test has been used.  value <0.05 has been taken as test of significance in the study. Result: The study has found significant phenomenological difference between children and adult onset OCD in symmetry ( = 0.02) and religious obsession ( = 0.01). Adult onset were

“…BDD, a distressing or impairing preoccupation with an imagined or slight defect in appearance, is classified in DSM-IV as a somatoform disorder, whereas OCD is classified as an anxiety disorder [American Psychiatric Association, 1994]. However, BDD has been proposed to be a member of the OCD-spectrum-a group of disorders that may be related to OCD-or a variant of OCD [e.g., Hollander, 1993;Jaisoorya et al, 2003;Simeon et al, 1995]. More than a century ago, Morselli [1891] noted that patients with BDD have prominent obsessions and compulsive behaviors, similar to patients with OCD.…”

Obsessive–compulsive disorder versus body dysmorphic disorder: a comparison study of two possibly related disorders

The relationship between obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) and body dysmorphic disorder (BDD) is unclear. BDD has been proposed to be an OCD-spectrum disorder or even a type of OCD. However, few studies have directly compared these disorders' clinical features. We compared characteristics of subjects with OCD (n = 210), BDD (n = 45), and comorbid BDD/OCD (n = 40). OCD and BDD did not significantly differ in terms of demographic features, age of OCD or BDD onset, illness duration, and many other variables. However, subjects with BDD had significantly poorer insight than those with OCD and were more likely to be delusional. Subjects with BDD were also significantly more likely than those with OCD to have lifetime suicidal ideation, as well as lifetime major depressive disorder and a lifetime substance use disorder. The comorbid BDD/OCD group evidenced greater morbidity than subjects with OCD or BDD in a number of domains, but differences between the comorbid BDD/OCD group and the BDD group were no longer significant after controlling for BDD severity. However, differences between the comorbid BDD/OCD group and the OCD group remained significant after controlling for OCD severity. In summary, OCD and BDD did not significantly differ on many variables but did have some clinically important differences. These findings have implications for clinicians and for the classification of these disorders.
