This figure shows a comparison of prevalence, with natural disaster exposure as reference, for a wide range of typical and non-typical trauma exposures.

🇮🇸Iceland, with the world's highest gender equality: New study of trauma among a representative sample of 28,000 adult women found that sexual, physical assaults were common. These stressors were associated with the highest prevalence of probable PTSD. https://t.co/A7tviBG0Uf

[Filip Arnberg @farnberg]

In this cross-sectional survey, the prevalence of life stressors ranged from 3.3% for war or armed conflict–related events to 66% for unwanted sexual experiences. Prevalence of probable PTSD was 16% but varied substantially across different stressor types.

[Filip Arnberg @farnberg]

Overall similar patterns for both sexes, incidence rates of most disorders peaked before age 20 (b). Bipolar disorder and schiz. peaked at age 20–30 (j,k). Stress-related disorders had a wide peak at 20–40 (d). Note the marked peak for depression at age 80-90 (b).

Here is a large register study - with a sibling comparison - on the association between traumatic exposure (assault, injury, and bereavement) and psychiatric disorders to understand the role of familial confounding.

New paper on Swedish patient records using a sibling-comparison design found that, "the long-term risk elevation of psychiatric disorders after potentially traumatic events was largely independent of familial factors." https://t.co/AzsnSkTA2P
