Abstract

The Tenth Revision of the International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems (ICD-10) checklists are a set of semistructured instruments designed for clinician assessment of mental and behavioral disorders according to ICD-10 criteria. The checklists have been produced as a package consisting of the ICD-10 Symptom Checklist and Glossary and the International Diagnostic Checklists (IDCL) for ICD-10 and Manual. This report describes the main features of the newly released World Health Organization (WHO) instruments and specifies areas of possible application by clinicians.

      During the trial period, only 44 participants were screened for eligibility, but the compliance and completion rates for enrolled participants were high. This study was conducted on individuals who did not meet the diagnostic criteria for ICD-10 insomnia [29], whereas, some studies examining the effects of bathing on insomnia included people with moderate insomnia with a PSQI score ≥6 and an ISI score of 15–21 [47,53]. Therefore, based on recent relevant research, the severity of sleep disorders and their causes (obesity, respiratory disease, etc.) should be considered when studying insomniacs in future studies.

      The criteria used to determine the inclusion of studies in the systematic review and meta-analysis was as follows: Diagnosis fits one of the following conditions: ‘somatic symptom disorder’, ‘medically unexplained physical symptoms’, ‘somatisation disorder’, ‘somatisation’, ‘persistent somatisation’, ‘somatoform disorder’, ‘undifferentiated somatoform disorder’ ‘functional somatic symptoms’ as officially defined by DSM-III (American Psychiatric Association, 1980), DSM-IV (American Psychiatric Association, 2000b), DSM-IV-TR (American Psychiatric Association, 2000a), DSM-5 (American Psychiatric Association, 2013), or ICD-10 (World Health Organization, 1992, Janca and Hiller, 1996), or DCPR/DCPR-Revised (Fava et al., 2017) or the criteria for one of the alternative somatoform disorders diagnoses proposed in the literature. Participants were aged 18 years or older.
