  • Title: [Life stress events preceding illness episodes in multiple sclerosis and ulcerative colitis--a comparison].
    Author: Bach O, Wild HJ.
    Journal: Z Gesamte Hyg; 1990 Aug; 36(8):442-3. PubMed ID: 2267849.
    Abstract:
    As to the prevention of somatic and psychosomatic diseases it should be tested, whether life-events are of interest to pathogenesis of disturbances like multiple sclerosis and ulcerative colitis. The social readjustment rating scale (Holmes, Rahe) was used and the life-change-unite-score of the groups of patients (n = 30) and a normal population was compared. Patients with m.s. and u.c. have a significant higher LCU-score than the normal group. Between the two diseases one can find no difference.
