Abstract:
Objective: The objectives of this review are 1) to briefly describe the
parallel historical developments of consultation-liaison (C-L) psychiatry;
2) to analyze the extent to which the literature of C-L psychiatry and
psychosomatic medicine relate to each other, given that both fields have
evolved simultaneously in the history of psychiatry; and 3) to propose
possible explanations for observed publication patterns in selected C-L
resources and the journal Psychosomatic Medicine.
Methods:
The quasi-citation analysis includes two segments: 1) a review of selected
key C-L psychiatry references to determine the extent to which classic
articles from Psychosomatic Medicine are cited; and 2) an analysis of 60
years of Psychosomatic Medicine, sampling issues from the first 5 years of
each decade and all issues of the year 2000 for articles of potential
relevance to C-L psychiatry, References to Psychosomatic Medicine articles
in C-L resources are tallied as percentages of total references in each
source. Articles in Psychosomatic Medicine are assigned to one of three
categories (A, B, or Q according to their perceived relevance to C-L
psychiatry, from most (A) to least (C) relevant. Results: The review of C-L
sources ("basic" reading lists and reference lists of. seminal articles and
textbooks) revealed a wide range of Psychosomatic Medicine citations, from
0% to 27.4% (average, 7.5%). The survey of Psychosomatic Medicine sorted
1705 articles for their relevance to C-L psychiatry into category A
5-40.6%, average 21.3%), category B (70.4-86.3%, average 72.3%), and
category C (0.7-12.1%, average 6.4%) for each half-decade for the past 60
years. The lowest number of category A articles appeared in the years 1970
to 1975, and the highest number appeared in 1950 to 1955; reciprocal results
were found for category B articles. The lowest number of category C articles
appeared in 1980 to 1985, and the highest number appeared in 1940 to 1945.
For the six issues of 2000. The distributions of articles in categories A,
B, and C are similar, continuing an upward trend beginning in 1975 of core
(category A) articles. Explanations for publication patterns are
peculatively related to various factors. such as a paucity G-L research and
researchers, the broad definition of C-L psychiatry, editorial policies, and
the impact of World War II. Conclusions: Although C-L psychiatry and
psychosomatic medicine have common roots, the reliance of the C-L literature
on classic Psychosomatic Medicine articles has varied markedly, from
none to about one-quarter of its references. Nevertheless, Psychosomatic
Medicine has consistently published articles of theoretical and clinical
interest to C-L psychiatrists, with more than 90% Of published articles
considered to be of high or moderate relevance to C-L psychiatry. A far
higher percentage of articles in Psychosomatic Medicine would seem to be
relevant to the field of C-L psychiatry than are cited in significant C-L
literature. Psychosomatic Medicine's essential focus on empirical research
may dissuade the more clinically oriented C-L psychiatrists.
