Objetivos Comprobar la asociacion entre familia extensa troncal (FET) e incidencia de enfermedad mental (EM).
Diseno Estudio de casos y controles.
Emplazamiento Zona Basica de Salud Tineo-Navelgas.
Pacientes Caso: todo individuo con diagnostico nuevo de EM recogido en historia clinica (HC) del centro de salud mental (CSM) de referencia, criterios CIE-9-CM, desde el 1-1- 1996 al 31-12-1997, vivo o muerto,. 14 anos; se incluyeron suicidios e intentos de suicidio sin HC en CSM y se excluyeron diagnosticos de psicosis organica, trastorno mental por lesion organica especifica y retraso mental (n = 162). Control: individuo vivo,. 14 anos, sin diagnostico de EM actual, que habiendo pasado mas de un ano del alta de una EM, puntuara 5 o menos de 5 en la escala GHQ-28. Se extrajo una muestra aleatoria sistematica del registro de usuarios de la ZBS (n = 378). Variables a estudio: edad, sexo, antecedentes familiares (AF) y personales (AP) de EM, habitat, estado civil, nivel de formacion (NF) y numero de miembros y generaciones de la familia. Se realizo un analisis univariante (caracteristicas casos/controles), bivariante (test ji-cuadrado y odds ratio bruta), y se ajusto un modelo de regresion logistica (odds ratio ajustada), mediante el paquete estadistico SPSSW7.1.
Resultados principales Para la FET resulto una OR de 3,29 (1,69-6,43).
Conclusiones La FET es factor de riesgo de EM. Se deberian realizar estudios sobre la dinamica y funcionalidad de este tipo de estructura familiar.
Objective To check the association between souche family and the incidence of mental illness.

Setting Health Rural Zone (Tineo-Asturias-Spain).
Patients Case: every person with a new diagnosis of mental illness who has been compiled (CIE-9-CM) the clinical records of the Mental Health Centre.

Main results In the souche family we obtained a odds ratio equal 3,29 (95% CI, 1,69-6,43).
Conclusions The souche family is a risk of mental illness. Reserch into dynamics and performance should be done.
