| Summary: | Alexander Collins, Mohamad Zeina GKT School of Medical Education, Faculty of Life Sciences & Medicine, King’s College London, UK We read with great interest the article by AbuRuz,1 wherein the author investigates first whether anxiety is an independent predictor of in-hospital complications after an acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and second, if perceived control (PC) moderates this relationship. Having carefully studied the interaction between physical and mental health during our time at King’s College London medical school, and after conducting a systematic review regarding personality disorders in emergency department presenters and the effects of comorbid personality disorders on clinical outcomes, we feel well placed to comment on the conclusions from this article.
