Obsessive-compulsive personality disorder (OCPD) frequently emerges in late adolescence or early adulthood and is one of the most prevalent personality disorders. OCPD is marked by an intense focus on perfection, a strong sense of order, and a rigid need for control.[1] Individuals with OCPD often find themselves engrossed in these fixations to such an extent that they face significant functional impairments in various facets of their lives.[2] The characteristics of OCPD are consistent over time. Individuals with OCPD may be inflexible, often resist change, and can be overwhelmed by minute details, rules, and schedules, hindering their productivity. While there is overlap between OCPD and obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), especially regarding thought content rigidity and a strong sense of personal responsibility, the two conditions have distinct diagnostic criteria, courses, and responses to interventions.[3]

Obsessive-compulsive personality disorder (OCPD) is a chronic condition in which a person demonstrates an excessive focus on details, order and rules, and the need to achieve a perfect outcome, often in a way that interferes with daily life. People with this personality disorder can be stubborn, insisting that things must be done their way. The desire for order, perfection, productivity, and control can impede their ability to finish tasks, collaborate with other people, and treat social activities or hobbies as purely recreational.

The world’s undiagnosed Marfan patients often go through life unaware of the hidden killer lurking in their DNA – a gene variant which may lead to sudden death at any moment via an aortic dissection. Currently, there is no therapy available to counteract this disastrous aortic event, so patient awareness of their condition is key to prevention. To learn more about Marfan syndrome and improve diagnosis, our project needs patients to enroll online in our research cohort. In this way, patients can themselves help us contribute to new therapies and averting sudden deaths.
