We report prepartum relapses of psychotic manic episodes in a 30-year-old female patient with a 15-year history of bipolar disorder. After 4-month medication-free period due to pregnancy, the patient, who had been in remission for 8 years with a combination of risperidone, valproic acid, and lithium, suffered multiple relapses that could not managed with electroconvulsive therapy and antipsychotic medication.

A valid and reliable measurement tool is needed to evaluate the subjective recovery process and to improve recovery-focused care. The purpose of this study was to assess the validity and reliability of the Turkish version of the Recovery Assessment Scale. Method: The present work was planned as a methodological study. The survey included 180 individuals with chronic mental illness registered in two Community Mental Health Centers. Content validity, construct validity, and criteria validity were used to assess validity, while internal consistency and stability across time were examined to test reliability. Results: The content validity index value of the scale was found to be over 0.80. Consequently, confirmatory factor analysis established that the Turkish form of the scale included 5 factors and 24 items, similar to the original version. Examination of criterion-related validity found an excellent positive significant correlation between the Recovery Assessment Scale and the Psychological Well-Being Scale (r=0.864, p<0.01). Cronbach’s alpha value of the scale was 0.90 and the test-retest reliability value was 0.96. Conclusion: As a result of the validity and reliability analyses, it was determined that the Turkish version of the Recovery Assessment Scale was a valid and reliable scale for evaluating the recovery of individuals diagnosed with mental illness. It may be advisable to test the scale in larger sample groups.","PeriodicalId":11480,"journal":{"name":"Dusunen Adam: The Journal of Psychiatry and Neurological Sciences","volume":"18 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"75395389","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Method: High schools in one province were divided into three groups based on the entrance scores of their students (from a nationwide exam), and from each group, schools and classes were selected using simple random sampling. The data analyzed were obtained by administration of the Peer Bullying Questionnaire to 1,375 selected students. Results: The prevalence of bullying, victimization, and students’ participation in the bullying cycle were found to be 30.5%, 27.9%, and 42.0%, respectively. A statistically significant relationship between the bullying cycle status and school groups was observed. The risk factors of entering into the bullying cycle were identified as being a student of a school with a low entrance score, being male, being a student in lower grade levels, and being a student in a class with a low female-over-male ratio. Conclusion: The results of this study support the hypothesis that students in schools requiring a lower entrance score are more likely to be in the bullying cycle. This result may be useful in targeting bullying interventions more effectively.","PeriodicalId":11480,"journal":{"name":"Dusunen Adam: The Journal of Psychiatry and Neurological Sciences","volume":"37 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-12-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"74178385","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia (CAH) is a sexual developmental disorder resulting from congenital deficiency and functional impairment of enzymes enabling cortisol synthesis. Gender dysphoria may be developed in 5.2% of CAH patients. In our case, sexual abuse and exploitation of an adolescent girl with gender dysphoria and CAH will be discussed. The 17-year-old girl was admitted to our clinic with complaints of increasing sexual desire for girls, dissatisfaction with being a girl, desire to be male, self-harming, and overstepping personal borders. She sexually touched girls against their will, tried to kiss them, desired to have sex with them, and when they rejected sexual intercourse, she threatened them with a knife when her demands were not met; she attacked the officials at the institution and cut her own arm. In her medical history, a diagnosis of 46XX simple virilizing CAH had been made on the basis of labioscrotal fusion and the presence of a single urogenital opening at 1 month. At the age of 1.5 years, the patient was operated to be raised as a girl and surgical reconstruction was completed. As a result of inadequate parental care, she had been taken into institutional care at the age of 4. We learned that the patient who was in the institution until the age of 17 was frequently running away from the institution and once had been exposed to sexual abuse. We also learned that she had threatened a girl in her last institution and sexually abused her for 3 months. Gender dysphoria and personality disorder traits were detected in the patient. Genetic and environmental causes may lead to gender dysphoria. As in our case, interest in same-sex partners and forced sexual contact are problems that may occur in gender dysphoria. It should be emphasized that in individuals with genetic or environmental risk factors of gender dysphoria, the risk of developing gender dysphoria and the risk of sexual abuse need to be considered.","PeriodicalId":11480,"journal":{"name":"Dusunen Adam: The Journal of Psychiatry and Neurological Sciences","volume":"248 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-12-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"80660809","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The pathophysiology of stuttering is not fully understood. Some studies show that stuttering is related with an increased number of D2 receptors in the basal ganglia. Otherwise, a 50-200% increase in the level of dopaminergic activity has been found in stuttering cases in comparison to the control group. Stuttering as a side-effect of psychotropic medication is rare. Only a few stuttering cases are reported in the literature as being due to effects of antipsychotics like chlorpromazine, clozapine, olanzapine, risperidone, or trifluoperazine. Olanzapine is also used to treat the symptoms of stuttering via D2 receptor antagonism, and in the literature there are cases treated with the administration of olanzapine. Here we present a case of olanzapine-induced stuttering. The importance of this case is to show that while olanzapine may be used in the treatment of stuttering, it may also be the cause of stuttering as an adverse effect.","PeriodicalId":11480,"journal":{"name":"Dusunen Adam: The Journal of Psychiatry and Neurological Sciences","volume":"115 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-12-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"77923259","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
