Résumé
En lien avec la fréquence du tabagisme et du syndrome métabolique, les patients souffrant de schizophrénie ont une prévalence élevée de pathologies organiques et un risque de mortalité prématurée deux à trois fois supérieur à celui constaté en population générale. Concernant le cancer, la prévalence globale serait au moins égale à celle retrouvée en population générale, mais la mortalité supérieure, principalement pour le cancer du sein chez la femme. Cet article propose une synthèse des principaux résultats épidémiologiques, ainsi que des facteurs de risque et de protection impliqués.
Abstract
Partly due to the frequency of smoking and metabolic syndrome, patients with schizophrenia have a higher prevalence of somatic diseases and a rate of premature death 2–3 times higher than in the general population. The global prevalence of cancer is at least as high in patients with schizophrenia in comparison to the general population, and higher mortality, especially for breast cancer in women. This article is a review of epidemiologic data on the topic, and of the risk and protection factors involved in the comorbidity between cancer and schizophrenia.
