Social–Emotional Profiles of PTSD,Complex PTSD,and Borderline Personality Disorder Among Racially and Ethnically Diverse Young Adults: A Latent Class Analysis

The debate around the construct validity of complex posttraumatic stress disorder (CPTSD) has begun to examine whether CPTSD diverges from posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) when it co‐occurs with the diagnosis of borderline personality disorder (BPD). The present study (a) examined the construct validity of CPTSD through a latent class analysis of a non–treatment‐seeking sample of young trauma‐exposed adults and (b) characterized each class in terms of trauma characteristics, social emotions (e.g., shame, guilt, blame), and interpersonal functioning. A total of 23 dichotomized survey items were chosen to represent the symptoms of PTSD, CPTSD, and BPD and administered to 197 trauma‐exposed participants. Fit statistics compared models with 2–4 latent classes. The four‐class model showed the best fit statistics and clinical interpretability. Classes included a “high PTSD+CPTSD+BPD” class, characterized by high‐level endorsement of all symptoms for the three diagnoses; a “moderate PTSD+CPTSD+BPD” class, characterized by endorsement of some symptoms across all three diagnoses; a “PTSD” class, characterized by endorsement of the ICD‐11 PTSD criteria; and a “healthy” class, characterized by low symptom endorsement overall. Pairwise comparisons showed individuals in the high PTSD+CPTSD+BPD class to have the highest levels of psychological distress, traumatic event history, adverse childhood experiences, and PTSD symptoms. Shame was the only social emotion to significantly differ between the classes, p = .002, η² = .16. The findings diverge from the literature, indicating an overlap of PTSD, CPTSD, and BPD symptoms in a non–treatment‐seeking community sample. Further, shame may be a central emotion that differentiates between presentation severities following trauma exposure.

The assessment of shoulder instability. The development and validation of a questionnaire

We have developed a 12-item questionnaire for completion by patients presenting with shoulder instability. A prospective study of 92 patients was undertaken involving two assessments, approximately six months apart, performed in an outpatient department. Each patient completed the new questionnaire and the SF36 form. An orthopaedic surgeon completed the Constant shoulder score and the Rowe assessment. The new questionnaire and the Rowe clinical score each achieved a large standardised effect size (> or = 0.8) and compared favourably with relevant items on the SF36. By contrast, the Constant score barely registered any effect, confirming that it may be relatively insensitive to changes in clinical status for this particular condition. The questionnaire provides a measurement of outcome for shoulder instability which is short, practical, reliable, valid and sensitive to changes of clinical importance.     

Making use of official statistics in research on gender and health status: recent British data

Macintyre et al. [Macintyre, S., Hunt, K., Sweeting, H., 1996. Gender differences in health: are things really as simple as they seem? Social Science and Medicine 42, 617-624] stated that the "whole topic of gender differences in health warrants periodic re-examination". In this paper we begin by presenting an overview of the main sources of national data that are available for monitoring patterns and trends in health by gender. We then give examples of a selection of indicators which contribute to the debate on the nature of differences between men and women in terms of their mortality. morbidity and health service utilisation. We conclude by urging readers to make more use of these sources of data to throw further light on the reasons for the differences and similarities in women's and men's experiences of health.     

Economic costs of functional dyspepsia

Dyspepsia is defined as chronic or recurrent symptoms believed to originate in the upper gastrointestinal tract. When routine investigation results in no identifiable explanation for those symptoms patients are labelled as having functional dyspepsia. In community-based surveys, approximately 30% of the otherwise apparently healthy population report dyspeptic symptoms and the majority are believed to have functional dyspepsia. Although only 1 in 4 or 5 patients make use of healthcare resources, this patient category is one of the largest in ambulatory care (1.6 to 5% of all consultations in general practice). The annual frequency of consultations for functional dyspepsia in Sweden has been estimated at 47 per 1000 population. In consequence of its high prevalence and associated absenteeism, the total costs of functional dyspepsia are considerable. In Sweden in 1981, the costs were estimated at $US55 000 per 1000 population ($US113 630 in 1991 dollars). The most cost-effective management strategy remains to be defined. Evidence is accumulating that the traditional 'wait-and-see' policy with initial empirical therapeutic trials without investigation may not be the most cost conserving strategy.     

Cultured epithelial autografts: three years of clinical experience with eighteen patients.

Eighteen patients with major burns (mean total body surface area burned was 49% and mean total body surface area with full-thickness burns was 38%) had cultured epithelial autografts applied to 2% to 35% of the body surface area. In six patients successful "take" of greater than 65% occurred, and in 12 patients less than 40% "take" occurred. Most wounds underwent early excision to subcutaneous fat or fascia, and the wounds of 16 patients had been treated previously with homograft. Cultured epithelial autografts were covered with either single or multilayered dressings. Perioperative wound cultures showed that all patients had microorganisms, and appropriate perioperative antibiotic coverage of Staphylococcus epidermidis and Pseudomonas aeruginosa was noted less frequently in the poor take group, which may have influenced subsequent cultured epithelial allograft take. Adherence and stability of cultured epithelial allografts lag behind adherence and stability of meshed split-thickness autograft. The anterior trunk and thighs are the best recipient sites. The number of autograft harvests that were required to close wounds and the length of hospital stay were not significantly decreased by the use of cultured epithelial allografts as compared with comparable full-thickness burns that were treated previously without cultured epithelial allografts. Presently, grafting with cultured epithelial allografts is an adjunct but not an alternative to conventional burn-wound coverage with split-thickness autograft, because engraftment is inconsistent.
