The study investigated demographic, clinical and forensic characteristics of alleged offenders referred for forensic assessment. A data collection form was used to gather information from 155 offenders'' clinical records. The subjects were mainly young males, aged between 18 and 35 years, with low educational levels and high unemployment rate. The most common diagnoses were substance-related and addictive disorders, and schizophrenia spectrum and other psychotic disorders. A sizeable number of offenders were diagnosed with an intellectual disability. The comorbidity of other medical conditions such as epilepsy and HIV/AIDS was also noteworthy. In total, 55.5% of the offenders were found competent to stand trial, and 46.5% were declared criminally responsible. Offenders presenting with schizophrenia and intellectual disabilities were often declared incompetent to stand trial and were generally not responsible for alleged crimes. There was association between adjudicative competence and criminal responsibility. The results highlight effect of substances on mental illness and crime. Key words: clinical, competency, criminal responsibility, demographic, forensic, law, mental health, offenders 相似文献

OBJECTIVE: To describe the response to highly active antiretroviral treatment (HAART) in a public sector pilot antiretroviral (ARV) treatment program in Botswana. METHODS: The response to HAART is described in adult HIV-infected ARV-naive patients initiating treatment from April 2001 to January 2002 at Princess Marina Hospital in Gaborone, Botswana. Patients had medical and laboratory evaluations before initiating ARV treatment and were followed longitudinally. For analysis, data were collected from charts and patient management records. RESULTS: One hundred fifty-three ARV-naive patients initiated HAART. Most received didanosine plus stavudine (ddI + d4T) with efavirenz or nevirapine. The mean CD4 cell count increase was 149 cells/mm at 24 weeks and 204 cells/mm at 48 weeks. The percentage of patients with an HIV-1 RNA level < or =400 copies/mL was 87.0% at 24 weeks and 78.8% at 48 weeks. The Kaplan-Meier 1-year survival estimate was 84.7% (79.0%, 90.8%), with a 3.2-fold increased risk (P = 0.004) of mortality among patients with a CD4 cell count <50 cells/mm. The 1-year Kaplan-Meier estimate of toxicity-related drug switches was 32.2% (20.3%, 40.4%). The most common toxicity was peripheral neuropathy, occurring more frequently in patients with a preexisting diagnosis of peripheral neuropathy and among those placed on ddI + d4T-containing regimens. CONCLUSIONS: An excellent response to HAART was observed among HIV-1C-infected patients, paralleling those seen elsewhere. Despite excellent responses, high rates of toxicity were observed for ddI + d4T-containing regimens. 相似文献
