Dear Colleagues,
The increase in life expectancy and chronic disease prevalence has a high psychosocial and economic impact on patients, society, and health institutions. The development of integrated therapeutic strategies and multidisciplinary teams that allow the assessment and treatment of the patient in the physical, emotional, psychological, and social dimensions are crucial. There has been limited progress in the prevention and treatment of mental illnesses associated with chronic conditions. Most of the therapeutic strategies used do not integrate the physical, social, and mental components associated with these diseases. It is important to characterize the psychopathological symptoms associated with chronic diseases and develop therapeutic strategies that include psychological and social interventions to prevent and minimize the psychosocial and economic impact of these diseases. In this Special Issue, original research articles and reviews are welcome. Research areas may include (but are not limited to) the study of the psychosocial, economic, and emotional impact of chronic conditions and the development of integrated strategies, including psychological and social interventions adapted to these conditions.
We look forward to receiving your contributions.
