{"title":"Deviant behavior in adolescents: the role of non-suicidal self-harm, depression and the desire to find new sensations","authors":"R. I. Antokhina, Evgeny Yu. Antokhin, Ekaterina K. Nemtseva","doi":"10.17816/nb624445","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.17816/nb624445","url":null,"abstract":"BACKGROUND. Although previous studies have shown that deviant predisposition is an important risk factor for non-suicidal self-harming behavior, the reasons for this relationship are unclear. \u0000AIM. The purpose of the study is to identify the features of deviant behavior, the level of depression and the desire to search for new sensations in adolescents with non-suicidal self-harming behavior. \u0000MATERIALS AND METHODS. At the first stage, 154 adolescents with a history of self-harming behavior were examined. At the second stage, using the Colombian Scale of Severity of suicidal Intentions, 149 adolescents with only non-suicidal self-harming behavior were selected from the entire sample (31.50% of them boys and 68.50% of girls, the average age was 16.35 years; SD=1.15). The study excluded 5 adolescents who had self-harmed for suicidal purposes. Columbia Scale of severity of suicidal intentions, Razuvaeva Suicide Risk Questionnaire, Bass–Perry Aggression Level Questionnaire, Diagnostic questionnaire to identify the propensity to various forms of deviant behavior for students of general education institutions, A. Beck’s depression questionnaire, Diagnosis of the needs of new sensations by M. Zuckerman, methods of descriptive statistics, r-Spearman correlation analysis. \u0000RESULTS. Persons prone to aggressive behavior in general are more likely to show inconsistency, demonstrativeness, poorly developed time perspective and uniqueness. Teenagers who have a poor idea of the future (a weak time perspective) are characterized by a high level of general aggressiveness, hostility, physical aggression, as well as a desire to search for sensations. Adolescents with depressive syndrome with feelings of insolvency, helplessness, are prone to deviant behavior in general, and to the search for new sensations. \u0000CONCLUSION. The correlation analysis revealed statistically significant correlations of aggression, autoaggression, deviant behavior, desire for sensation seeking and depression in adolescents. The results of our study provide the basis for an intervention aimed at preventing and reducing adolescent NSSP and deviant behavior in general.","PeriodicalId":436189,"journal":{"name":"Neurology Bulletin","volume":"109 6","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139530224","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 conclusion is that the terms featured in the diagnostic criteria are not scientific terminology, but rather nomenclature lists. Using the example of substituting traditional psychiatric terminology with euphemisms, this study demonstrates the manipulative impact of classifications on the consciousness of both professionals and society as a whole, resulting in the “psychologization” of psychiatry. The psychiatric symptom was found to be a diminished semiotic system, reduced to the simplistic idea of “object — label”. The diagnostic work of the physician has lost its meaning.","PeriodicalId":436189,"journal":{"name":"Neurology Bulletin","volume":" 11","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139622986","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}

Considering its curability and reversibility, encephalitis with antibodies to NMDA receptors must be included into differential diagnostic list for all the patients suffering first psychotic episode. However, to diagnose it, it is necessary to follow a step-by-step algorithm considering both clinical and instrumental and laboratory data. Confirming anti-NMDA-receptor encephalitis based solely on increased blood antibodies level often leads to false-positive diagnostics and errors in treatment of such patients. In this article, we discuss diagnostic features of encephalitis with antibodies to NMDA receptors,as well as other forms of autoimmune encephalitis that can initially manifest as acute psychoses.","PeriodicalId":436189,"journal":{"name":"Neurology Bulletin","volume":" 5","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139620904","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":"Risk factors for early-onset and late-onset fatigue after a stroke","authors":"M. Savina, E. V. Ponevezhskaya, Elisaveta A. Petrova, E. A. Koltsova","doi":"10.17816/nb227933","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.17816/nb227933","url":null,"abstract":"BACKGROUND. Post-stroke fatigue is a predictor of adverse outcomes such as high mortality, worse functional outcome and daily living dependence. It is a heterogeneous syndrome that changes over time, as demonstrated by studies. \u0000AIM. The aim of the study was to assess dynamic changes of risk factors related to post-stroke fatigue during a year after first-ever stroke. \u0000MATERIALS AND METHODS. This study formed a section of a prospective observational study involving of a cohort of 348 patients experiencing their first-ever stroke (53.2% male, 46.8% of female, with a mean age of 66±12 years). During the acute stroke period, 75 patients completed the Fatigue Severity Scale (FSS). Additionally, 19 patients completed the FSS at both 3 and 6 months after their stroke, while 33 patients did so at 12 months post-stroke. The neurological (NIHSS, Rankin) and psychiatric (HDRS, HARS) evaluation scores, pain scores measured with visual analogue scales, cognitive test results (MMSE, TMT-B) taken at the same time point, and locus control testing were compared with these findings. Spearman coefficient was utilized. The relationship between fatigue and depression (DSM-IV), stroke location, and patients’ demographic characteristics were tested with a χ2-test to avoid partiality. \u0000RESULTS. Fatigue following a stroke during the acute stage showed an association with pain, depression, anxiety scores and complaints about cognitive dysfunction prior to the stroke. In contrast, late-onset fatigue (12 months post-stroke) demonstrated a link with medical locus of control and more severe neurological deficit. \u0000CONCLUSION. Post-stroke fatigue manifests as a heterogeneous syndrome, characterized by changes in risk factors over time. Due to its complexity, accurate assessment necessitates the use of modern technologies, such as EMA and digital phenotyping.","PeriodicalId":436189,"journal":{"name":"Neurology Bulletin","volume":" 19","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139622578","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}

This subsequent tightening of medical opioid dispensation led to the resurgence of the unlawful drug market, which included heroin and fentanyl.
