Continuation of Treatment in Children With ADHD: A Multicenter Turkish Sample Study

OBJECTIVES

The aim of this study was to investigate the variables that may affect treatment continuation in children aged 6 to 12 years who were newly diagnosed with ADHD.

METHODS

A total of 132 children diagnosed with ADHD and their parents participated in the study. Sociodemographic and clinical risk factors affecting continuation of treatment were examined using logistic regression analysis.

RESULTS

Multiple model examination revealed that greater age increased the risk of treatment discontinuation 1.824 times (p = .003) while a lower total length of paternal education increased the risk of discontinuation (1/0.835) 1.198 times (p = .022). Other variables emerging as significant in the univariate model lost that significance in the multiple model.

CONCLUSIONS

Understanding the variables associated with medication discontinuation in ADHD in different populations and taking these variables into account in the development of health policies, will be useful in improving the long-term devastating effects of the disorder.

Evaluation of carotid intima media thickness as an early marker of atherosclerosis in children and adolescents with autism spectrum disorder: a case-control study

There are studies reporting different results on whether there is an increased incidence of cardiovascular problems in autism spectrum disorder (ASD). The aim of this study was to examine carotid intima-media thickness (cIMT), an early marker of atherosclerosis in children and adolescents with ASD. This single-center case-control study was conducted in a tertiary care hospital. Eighty-five children (36 children with autism and 49 healthy controls) aged 6-18 were enrolled. After a clinical interview, Children's Global Assessment Scale (CGAS) and Autism Behavior Checklist (ABC) were filled out and laboratory measures were collected for ASD group. Anthropometric measurements (height, weight, waist and hip) of each participant were assessed. The cIMT was measured with an ultrasound probe on both sides of the neck. Age, gender, body mass index percentile and waist/hip ratio adjusted right/left common carotid arteries IMT and right/left bulb IMT were statistically significantly higher in the autism group than controls (0.45 ± 0.01 mm and 0.55 ± 0.01 mm, respectively, p < 0.001). We performed multiple linear regression analysis to determine statistically significant related factors of the cIMT in ASD. Early onset of autism symptoms were related with high carotid IMT (β = -0.496, p = 0.01). These findings suggest that atherosclerosis may begin earlier in children with ASD, which is one of the most common neurodevelopmental disorders in childhood. The cIMT measurement, which is an easy and noninvasive method in the cardiovascular assessment and follow-up can be recommended for clinical use for individuals with ASD.

The effects of the age of male early life circumcision on sexual functions later in life

Introduction

According to psychoanalytic theory performing circumcision on a boy in phallic phase may aggravate this fear and cause sexual dysfunctions later in life. However this hypothesis is an unverified common-view rather than a scientifically proven conclusion.

Objectives

We hypothesized that being circumcised during phallic phase is not a risk factor for sexual dysfunction. We also took a peak at how the experience of circumcision is being perceived and its psychological effects. Our secondary hypothesis was, sexual dysfunctions are more frequent among men who had a traumatic circumcision experience.

Methods

For this cross-sectional study, a total of 2768 sexually active, circumcised and voluntary men were recruited from 20 different urology outpatient clinics around Turkey.

Results

There was no significant difference for PEDT and IIEF scores between participants who were circumcised at different ages (Graph-1,2). When participants were divided into 3 groups according to their circumcision age in accordance with psychoanalytic theory (before, after and during phallic phase) mean IIEF and PEDT scores did not differ. PEDT scores did not differ either by which emotion the participant describe their experience of circumcision or how vividly he remembered it. However participants who remembered their circumcision experience more vividly and had who describe their circumcision experience with fear/anxiety had a higher IIEF score (Graph-3).

Conclusions

The age of circumcision does not affect the risk of PE. This is one of the very few studies that challenges psychoanalytic theory with a scientific method. Remembering the circumcision experience with fear or anxiety did not increase the risk of sexual dysfunctions.

Drainless resection of the submandibular gland with facial vessel preservation: A comparative study

OBJECTIVE

Resection of the submandibular gland (SMG) is a common surgery and many surgeons leave a drainage system in the surgical field. However, surgical drain may increase risk of complication and related prolonged hospitalization time. The purpose of this study was to investigate the safety of SMG resection without any surgical drainage system.

METHODS

This retrospective trial on SMG surgery was conducted between 2016 and 2019. Patients were assigned into one of two main groups: surgical drain (+) (n=20) and surgical drain (-) (n=17). All surgical procedures were done via a standardized surgical technique. Facial vessels were dissected and only glandular branches were ligated. Also, non-identification method was applied for marginal mandibular nerve (MMN) protecting. In surgical drain (-) group, before the wound closure, oxidized regenerated cellulose (ORC) was placed in the surgical field. Moreover, a closed suction drain was inserted in surgical drain (+) group.

RESULTS

A total of 37 SMG resections were performed: 15 patients had sialolithiasis, 14 patients had pleomorphic adenoma and 8 patients had chronic sialadenitis. There were 20 women (54%) and 17 men (46%), with an age range of 23-70 years. No major complications were observed in surgical drain (-) group. There were two cases with minor complications. One patient (5.8%) occurred transient paralysis of the MMN. Other patient developed seroma and it was easily managed with repeated punctures. ORC related allergic reaction or adverse incident were not detected in any of the patients. On the other hand, in surgical drain (+) group, 2 patients (10%) developed a hematoma on the first postoperative day and local wound infection was detected in 4 patients (20%). We found that the surgical drain usage was related to prolonged hospitalization, worse wound healing and problems with scarring.

CONCLUSION

Our findings provide evidence for the safe drainless resection of the SMG using ORC. It may be possible to prevent all of these undesirable conditions by a surgery which performed without drain insertion.

The Relationship of Clinical Symptoms with Social Cognition in Children Diagnosed with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, Specific Learning Disorder or Autism Spectrum Disorder

OBJECTIVE

One of the areas of social cognition is Theory of Mind (ToM) is defined as the capacity to interpret, infer and explain mental states underlying the behavior of others. When social cognition studies on neurodevelopmental disorders are examined, it can be seen that this skill has not been studied sufficiently in children with Specific Learning Disorder (SLD).

METHODS

In this study, social cognition skills in children diagnosed with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), SLD or Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) evaluated before puberty and compared with controls. To evaluate the ToM skills, the first and secondorder false belief tasks, the Hinting Task, the Faux Pas Test and the Reading the Mind in the Eyes Task were used.

RESULTS

We found that children with neurodevelopmental disorders as ADHD, ASD, and SLD had ToM deficits independent of intelligence and language development. There was a significant correlation between social cognition deficits and problems experienced in many areas such as social communication and interaction, attention, behavior, and learning.

CONCLUSION

Social cognition is an important area of impairment in SLD and there is a strong relationship between clinical symptoms and impaired functionality.

Basal blood DHEA-S/cortisol levels predicts EMDR treatment response in adolescents with PTSD

OBJECTIVE

In literature, recent evidence has shown that the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis can be dysregulated in patients with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and HPA axis hormones may predict the psychotherapy treatment response in patients with PTSD. In this study, it was aimed to investigate changing cortisol and DHEA-S levels post-eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR) therapy and the relationship between treatment response and basal cortisol, and DHEA-S levels before treatment.

METHOD

The study group comprised 40 adolescents (age, 12-18 years) with PTSD. The PTSD symptoms were assessed using the Child Depression Inventory (CDI) and Child Post-traumatic Stress Reaction Index (CPSRI) and the blood cortisol and DHEA-S were measured with the chemiluminescence method before and after treatment. A maximum of six sessions of EMDR therapy were conducted by an EMDR level-1 trained child psychiatry resident. Treatment response was measured by the pre- to post-treatment decrease in self-reported and clinical PTSD severity.

RESULTS

Pre- and post-treatment DHEA-S and cortisol levels did not show any statistically significant difference. Pre-treatment CDI scores were negatively correlated with pre-treatment DHEA-S levels (r: -0.39). ROC analysis demonstrated that the DHEA-S/cortisol ratio predicts treatment response at a medium level (AUC: 0.703, p: .030, sensitivity: 0.65, specificity: 0.86).

CONCLUSION

The results of this study suggested that the DHEA-S/cortisol ratio may predict treatment response in adolescents with PTSD receiving EMDR therapy. The biochemical parameter of HPA-axis activity appears to be an important predictor of positive clinical response in adolescent PTSD patients, and could be used in clinical practice to predict PTSD treatment in the future.
