OBJECTIVE: Although high rates of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and psychological morbidity have been consistently reported in Holocaust survivors (HS), reports are inconsistent about which factors are associated with psychological morbidity. In a study of the oldest HS cohort yet reported, we aim to clarify why this variability exists by examining factors associated with PTSD and psychological morbidity, including for the first time measures of personality and defense mechanisms. METHODS: One hundred HS randomly selected from a convenience sample of 309 respondents to a survey of Jewish persons aged 60 years and older living in the community in Sydney were assessed using the following instruments: demographics, severity of trauma experienced, General Health Questionnaire (GHQ-28), PTSD diagnosis (DSM-IV), Brief Psychiatric Rating Scale, Impact of Events Scale, Defense Style Questionnaire, modified Eysenck Personality Inventory. RESULTS: Older age, experience of more severe trauma, use of immature defense mechanisms and higher neuroticism were associated with significant PTSD and psychological morbidity; severity of trauma was associated with PTSD and with more severe psychological morbidity. CONCLUSIONS: A profile of survivors at-risk can be identified that may have application to survivors of more recent holocausts. Late life may be a period of vulnerability in the aftermath of severe trauma. 相似文献

Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is associated with a dysregulation of the hypothalamus-pituitary-adrenal axis (HPA axis). In addition, there is evidence for altered glucocorticoid receptor (GR) expression and function in peripheral blood mononuclear cells. The aim of the present study was to differentiate between the effect of trauma exposure and PTSD on leukocyte GR expression and glucocorticoid immune regulation. Leukocyte GR binding characteristics and glucocorticoid sensitivity of immune activity, determined as the effect of dexamethasone (DEX) on in vitro cytokine release and T-cell proliferation, were compared between veterans with PTSD, traumatized veterans without PTSD and healthy controls. Leukocyte GR density was significantly lower in veterans with and without PTSD compared to healthy controls. DEX-induced inhibition of T-cell proliferation was significantly lower in PTSD compared to trauma and healthy controls. DEX-induced increase in lipopolysaccharide-stimulated interleukin-10 was less pronounced in traumatized veterans with and without PTSD compared to healthy controls. No group differences were observed in the effect of DEX on other cytokines or in baseline immune activity, except for lower tumor necrosis factor-alpha production in PTSD patients compared to healthy controls. The results suggest that trauma exposure is sufficient to induce changes in GR binding characteristics, whereas resistance of T-cell proliferation to DEX only occurs in PTSD. DEX resistance of in vitro immune activity was not a general phenomenon, but was restricted to specific immune functions. 相似文献

There is mounting evidence indicating that reactive free radical species (FRs) are involved in initiation and development of many different forms of human pathologies including psychiatric disorders. In the present study, we aimed to determine whether antioxidant enzyme (glutathione peroxidase, GSH-Px; superoxide dismutase, SOD and catalase, CAT) activities and malondialdehyde (MDA) levels, a product of lipid peroxidation, were associated with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). The study comprised 14 patients who had been diagnosed with PTSD according to DSM-IV criteria and met the admission criteria and 14 healthy controls. The activities of GSH-Px SOD, CAT and MDA were measured in both the patients and controls. In addition, all patients were assessed using the Clinician Administered PTSD Scale (CAPS). The mean GSH-Px, SOD, CAT activities and MDA levels of the patient group did not differ from those of the controls. However, in patients, the GSH-Px and SOD activities were significantly and positively correlated with CAPS scores, while there was a trend toward positive correlations between CAPS scores and MDA or CAT. In conclusion, our results suggest that the production of FRs does not seem to be related to PTSD. 相似文献

The goal of this article is to initiate dialogue among those conducting research on the biological aspects of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and clinicians and researchers concerned with developing effective psychological treatments for PTSD. Important biological findings in PTSD are reviewed, paying special attention to the clinical implications of these findings. A discussion of the psychological treatments effective for PTSD follows, focusing on how these empirically supported treatments may address some of the issues raised by the biological findings. Finally, suggestions are made for future directions for psychological treatment development for this disabling condition, examining how these innovative treatment approaches may be relevant to the reviewed biological findings. 相似文献

Neuroimaging studies in post-traumatic stress disorder 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6
Bremner JD 《Current psychiatry reports》2002,4(4):254-263
The past decade has seen a rapid advance in understanding of the neural circuits of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD),
which has largely been due to the application of neuroimaging to the study of this disorder. Based on studies in animals of
the effects of stress on the brain, dysfunction of the medial prefrontal cortex, hippocampus, and amygdala have been hypothesized
to underlie symptoms of PTSD. Neuroimaging studies in PTSD have been consistent with these hypotheses, with the most replicated
findings showing decreased medial prefrontal cortical function in PTSD. Other replicated findings include decreased inferior
frontal gyrus function, decreased hippocampal function, increased posterior cingulate function, and, in some behavioral paradigms,
increased amygdala function. Several studies have now shown changes in structure (smaller volume) of the hippocampus in PTSD.
These studies are beginning to map out a neural circuitry of PTSD that may have future implications for diagnosis and treatment. 相似文献

The relation between emotion and memory is highly complex and, on the surface, the studies conducted are full of contradictions. A consensus is gradually emerging that emotion is likely to benefit memory for central details while disadvantaging memory for peripheral details, and that extremely high levels of emotion lead to strong conditioned responses while impairing conscious memory processes. These phenomena are illustrated well in post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), where intense flashbacks can co-exist with disorganized and incomplete narrative memory. These findings are related to the dual representation theory of memory in PTSD, and the implications for therapy are briefly discussed. 相似文献

Traumatic stress has a broad range of effects on brain function. Brain areas implicated in the stress response include the amygdala, hippocampus, and prefrontal cortex. Brain studies in patients with post-traumatic stress disorder replicated findings in animal studies by finding alterations in these brain areas. Brain areas implicated in post-traumatic stress disorder play an important role in the stress response as well as memory, highlighting the important interplay between memory and the traumatic stress response. Future studies are required to assess the relationship between recovery from traumatic stress and changes in brain function. 相似文献

目的分析创伤性脑损伤(TBI)患者创伤后成长(PTG)与创伤后应激障碍(PTSD)的现况及其影响因素。
方法通过便利抽样的方法,选取首都医科大学附属北京天坛医院神经外科自2019年7月至2020年1月就诊的85例TBI患者为研究对象,使用创伤后成长评定量表(PTGI)、创伤后应激障碍量表平民版(PCL-C)调查TBI患者的PTG水平、PTSD情况,并进一步分析TBI患者PTG的影响因素。
结果TBI患者PTGI总分为(58.41±23.05)分,处于低水平。PCL-C得分为(36.18±16.52)分,PCL-C阳性症状检出率为41.2%。多元线性回归分析结果显示,文化程度、性格类型、社会支持、警觉性增高、创伤再体验是TBI患者PTG的影响因素。TBI患者文化水平低、外向型性格、社会支持水平越高其PTG水平越高。TBI事件后警觉性反应低者,PTG水平较高,创伤再体验症状促进PTG的发生。
结论TBI患者创伤后早期同时出现PTG及PTSD,通过调动患者个体内部因素及外在社会联系等方面积极因素,可能提高患者PTG水平。 相似文献

Fluvoxamine treatment in veterans with combat-related post-traumatic stress disorder 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
This study was designed to investigate the efficacy of the antidepressant fluvoxamine in the treatment of combat-related post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Fifteen veterans with combat-related PTSD and no other psychiatric diagnosis except depression were recruited to participate in a 14-week open-label study of fluvoxamine. Patients underwent a 30-day washout period and were rated with the Clinician Administered PTSD Scale (CAPS), Mississippi Scale, Beck Depression Inventory (BDI), Hamilton Rating Scale for Depression (HAM-D) and Hamilton Rating Scale for Anxiety (HAM-A) at baseline, and every 2 weeks until week 14. Three patients stopped fluvoxamine prematurely due to side effects and 7 withdrew consent before completing the 14-week trial. Eight patients completed at least 8 weeks of treatment. The total daily dose of fluvoxamine ranged from 100 to 300 mg with a mean daily dose of 150 mg at week 14. Intent-to-treat analysis revealed a significant improvement in total CAPS scores, and in the intrusion and the avoidance/numbing subscales. The CAPS hyper-arousal scores did not change significantly. HAM-A score also improved significantly. No significant changes were seen on the Mississippi scale, HAM-D, or Beck Depression Inventory in the intent-to-treat analysis. In summary, our study shows that fluvoxamine appears to improve combat-related PTSD symptoms but not depressive symptoms. The high attrition rate and lack of a placebo group limits the conclusions of our study. Controlled studies of fluvoxamine in the treatment of PTSD are warranted. 相似文献

The present study examined whether post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and comorbid substance use disorder (SUD) is associated with greater social and health morbidity than PTSD without SUD in a sample of female primary care patients. Participants were administered diagnostic interviews and assessed for work productivity, quality of interpersonal relationships, and degree of health functioning. No significant differences were found between the women with current PTSD and a comorbid lifetime substance use disorder (N = 56) and those with current PTSD and no lifetime substance use disorders (N = 60) in degree of work productivity, interpersonal functioning, and overall well-being and health, as well as number of lifetime medical illnesses. These findings suggest that the presence of comorbid SUD may not explain the level of social and health difficulties associated with the dual diagnosis of PTSD and SUD. 相似文献

Over the past 2-3 years, clinical practice guidelines (CPGs) for post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and acute stress disorder (ASD) have been developed in the USA and UK. There remained a need, however, for the development of Australian CPGs for the treatment of ASD and PTSD tailored to the national health-care context. Therefore, the Australian Centre for Posttraumatic Mental Health in collaboration with national trauma experts, has recently developed Australian CPGs for adults with ASD and PTSD, which have been endorsed by the National Health and Medical Research Council (NHMRC). In consultation with a multidisciplinary reference panel (MDP), research questions were determined and a systematic review of the evidence was then conducted to answer these questions (consistent with NHMRC procedures). On the basis of the evidence reviewed and in consultation with the MDP, a series of practice recommendations were developed. The practice recommendations that have been developed address a broad range of clinical questions. Key recommendations indicate the use of trauma-focused psychological therapy (cognitive behavioural therapy or eye movement desensitization and reprocessing in addition to in vivo exposure) as the most effective treatment for ASD and PTSD. Where medication is required for the treatment of PTSD in adults, selective serotonin re-uptake inhibitor antidepressants should be the first choice. Medication should not be used in preference to trauma-focused psychological therapy. In the immediate aftermath of trauma, practitioners should adopt a position of watchful waiting and provide psychological first aid. Structured interventions such as psychological debriefing, with a focus on recounting the traumatic event and ventilation of feelings, should not be offered on a routine basis. 相似文献
