The course of cognition and functional status in schizophrenia remains an area of significant controversy and is marked by conflicting findings. One of the reasons for this controversy is that cognitive and functional changes occur with normal aging in the population. Method: Total number of samples in the study were 80 (experimental and control), out of which 40 were elderly schizophrenic patients and 40 were normal elderly individuals. Elderly patients with schizophrenia were selected from the inpatient department of RINPAS, Ranchi. Normal elderly people were selected from near by areas of the hospital. On both the groups the Post Graduate InstituteBattery for Assessment of Mental Efficiency in Elderly (PGIAMEE) test was administered. Result: Significant differences were found in mental efficiency between normal elderly group and elderly schizophrenic patients. The mean score of normal population is 52.90 and for schizophrenic group 40.20. Conclusion: The findings of the index study suggests that the marked differences in cognitive functioning has been found between elderly patient with schizophrenia and normal elderly people .Areas of impairment were difficulty in recalling names of different things ,general orientation and visuo-spatial coordination.","PeriodicalId":269968,"journal":{"name":"Eastern Journal of Psychiatry","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-10-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131296380","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}

These were based on two English Acts namely the English Lunacy Regulation Act, 1853 and the Lunatics Act, 18531. The Indian Lunacy Act, 1912 was enacted to amend and assimilate the law relating to custody of lunatics in India with the English law on the subject and to re-arrange and consolidate as far as possible the whole law relating to lunatics (Statement of Objects and Reasons of the Indian Lunacy Bill, 1911). After Second World War the Universal Declaration of Human Rights was adopted by the UN General Assembly to ensure inherent dignity and the equal and inalienable rights of all people. India was a signatory to the Declaration. The need was felt to replace the Indian Lunacy Act, 1912 and the Indian Psychiatric Society (IPS) realized the need to enact new law in this regard and submitted a Draft Mental Health Bill to the Government of India in 1950.Dr. B.A. Bhagwat took active part in preparation of the draft. In 1978 a Mental Health Bill was introduced in the Lok Sabha and was later referred to a JPC headed by Dr. Sushila Towards A New Mental Health Act","PeriodicalId":269968,"journal":{"name":"Eastern Journal of Psychiatry","volume":"21 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-10-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121355853","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}

{"title":"Prevalence of Sexual Dysfunctions in Major Depressive Disorder and its Relation to Quality of Life","authors":"Ranjan Das, O. Singh, R. G. Thakurta, S. Sen","doi":"10.5005/ejp-17-1-21","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.5005/ejp-17-1-21","url":null,"abstract":"Background : Adequate sexual expression is an essential part of many human relationships, and may enhance quality of life and provide a sense of physical, psychological, and social well-being. Epidemiological and clinical studies show that depression isassociated with impairments of sexual function and satisfaction, even in untreated patients. Most antidepressant drugs have adverse effects on sexual function, but accurate identification of the incidence of treatment-emergent dysfunction has proved troublesome. However, few investigators have reported the base rate for disturbances in sexual desire, arousal, and orgasm or ejaculation in patients with major depressive disorder (MDD) prior to antidepressant treatment. The purpose of this study is to define the frequency of sexual dysfunction (SD) in 60 patients with MDD and examine the relationship between SD and quality of life enjoyment and satisfaction variables. Materials and Methods : A consecutive series of 24 male and 36 female MDD patients diagnosed by SCID-DSM IV assessment completed a series of psychometric measures including a Sexual Function QuestionnaireASEX (Arizona Sexual Experience Scale) which asked about change in sexual interest and function as well as quality of life of life enjoyment using QLESQ-SF. Results: Over 33.33% of men and 42% of women reported decreased sexual interest. Reduced levels of arousal were more common in both men and women (8-22%) than ejaculatory or orgasm difficulties (1116%). In women, SDs were more than males. Quality oflife was more impaired in sample with SDs than those without dysfunction showing significant impact of SD on quality of life. Limitation and Conclusion: Although limited by a relatively small sample of drug-free patients with MDD, and by the absence of a non-depressed comparison sample, these results emphasize the importance of factors beyond specific drug effects in the assessment of SD in drug naive-depressed patients.","PeriodicalId":269968,"journal":{"name":"Eastern Journal of Psychiatry","volume":"258 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-10-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132592090","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}

Psychological factors and family relationships are important in DSH. The link between psycho social stressors and DSH in immigrants has been reported. Ethnic or trans cultural differences can have a significant effect on the social support systems, cultural sanctions and role expectations, not only within the narrower community and family set up but also in wider society. The aim of this study was to establish the characteristics of Indian sub-continent origin children and adolescents who self-harm. This case control study based on retrospective case note analysis of children and adolescents presenting to mental health services compared the factors associated with deliberate self-harm among the children from Indian sub-continent (Asian group) and other ethnicities (non-Asian group) within a specified geographical area. Asian children presented as a separate group with differences in associated factors in relation to self-harm. The higher rate of discharge needs more exploration to clarify whether it was the Asian children's and their families attitude towards mental health services or professionals being less trained to provide a culturally sensitive advice to cause the difference.","PeriodicalId":269968,"journal":{"name":"Eastern Journal of Psychiatry","volume":"36 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-10-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115393259","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}
