abstract="Among psychiatric inpatients aged 13 to 17, various familial and clinical characteristics were compared between those with and without a previous history of specialized child psychiatric care (CPSY versus non-CPSY). CPSY adolescents were younger (boys: odds ratio [OR], 0.7; girls: OR, 0.4) at admission to adolescent psychiatric inpatient care, and they more likely had mothers with psychiatric problems (boys: OR, 4.0; girls: OR, 4.8) and child welfare placement background (boys: OR, 2.8; girls: OR, 6.7) compared with non-CPSY adolescents. CPSY girls were also characterized as having unemployed mothers (OR, 3.1) and engaging in nonsuicidal self-injury (OR, 3.1), whereas CPSY boys were diagnosed with anxiety (OR, 2.7) or conduct disorder (OR, 2.8). Based on our study, family-focused care and intervention services are required to prevent continuity of psychiatric disorders from childhood into adolescence.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
