N1 - Funding Information: Until recently, research in C-L psychiatry lagged far behind that in general psychiatry. Output was spurred by a conference sponsored by the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) Services Research Branch in the mid-1980s' and was followed by an unprecedented outpouring of federal funding for research in adult C-L psychiatry. Since then, a respectable scientific data base has been produced. A similar level of funding has not been allocated to enhance child and adolescent C-L psychiatry, although issues related to comorbidity are equally important in child psychiatry. C-L psychiatry may well be more important in our young patients, who are often particularly vulnerable to adverse influences and perhaps also uniquely responsive to preventive or curative intervention. From the few prospective studies available, we know that the risk for deviant development and psychopathology is increased in children with illness and disability. Prolonged medical illness may adversely affect all areas of functioning: interpersonal, intrapsychic, and, later in life, economic and vocational.2•3Thus, in childhood we have a unique opportunity to prevent future psychosocial morbidity with Copyright: Copyright 2017 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.
