Functional Somatic Disorders in Individuals With a History of Sexual Assault
Findings of this cohort study suggest that SA may increase the risk of developing FSD, involving multiple body systems. Despite limitations from small case samples in some FSD subtypes, the pooled analysis underscores the high risk of FSD, emphasizing the critical need for further research and targeted interventions to address the long-term biopsychosocial consequences of SA.
