About

In general hospitals, complicated psychosomatic disorders often cause difficulties in diagnosis and treatment, consuming more medical resources. For the past decade, Research Domain Criteria (RDoC) ranging from normal to abnormal dimensions, have revealed the mechanisms and extracted the shared traits in cross-disorder background. This article collection will present research focusing on shared features in various psychosomatic disorders. In addition, we would like to encourage interdisciplinary collaborations.

The aim of this Research Topic is to reveal shared traits and related mechanisms across different psychosomatic disorders commonly observed in general hospitals. Consistent measures that help to extract unique dimensions across disorders will be covered, including:
· demographic/lifestyle screening
· clinical assessment
· cognitive evaluations
· blood biomarkers
· brain images
· genetic information.

In addition, as the development of psychosomatic medicine is constantly pushed forward by psychiatrists, psychologists, psychotherapists, and physicians from different departments, we encourage authors with different backgrounds to submit their collaborative works. In this way, we aim to elucidate the effective strategies of collaboration in psychosomatic medicine. Finally, we hope this Research Topic will promote in-depth discussions and open up a window for sustained attention worldwide.

Studies with cross-disorder backgrounds or combined efforts from different departments in general hospitals are strongly welcomed. Studies within one disorder but focusing on specific traits other than diagnostic categories are also within our scope. We expect research in (but not limited to) the following domains:
· translational research from psychosomatic theory into bedside practice
· integrative psychotherapy
· psycho-cardiology
· anxiety
· digestive system diseases
· rheumatism
· dermatological disease
· geriatric disorders.

Potential article types that can be submitted include original research, methods, reviews, systematic reviews, mini-reviews, and case reports that fit the scope.
