Methods: This study was conducted as a part of the “The Epidemiology of Childhood Psychopathology in Turkey” (EPICPAT-T) Study, which was designed by the Turkish Association of Child and Adolescent Mental Health. The inclusion criterion was being a student between the second and fourth grades in the schools assigned as study centers. The assessment tools used were the K-SADS-PL, and a sociodemographic form that was designed by the authors. Impairment was assessed via a 3 point-Likert type scale independently rated by a parent and a teacher. Results: A total of 5842 participants were included in the analyses. The prevalence of affective disorders was 2.5 % without considering impairment and 1.6 % when impairment was taken into account. In our sample, the diagnosis of bipolar disorder was lacking, thus depressive disorders constituted all the cases. Among depressive disorders with impairment, major depressive disorder (MDD) (prevalence of 1.06%) was the most common, followed by dysthymia (prevalence of 0.2%), adjustment disorder with depressive features (prevalence of 0.17%), and depressive disorder-NOS (prevalence of 0.14%). There were no statistically significant gender differences for depression. Maternal psychopathology and paternal physical illness were predictors of affective disorders with pervasive impairment. Conclusion: MDD was the most common depressive disorder among Turkish children in this nationwide epidemiological study. This highlights the severe nature of depression and the importance of early interventions. Populations with maternal psychopathology and paternal physical illness may be the most appropriate targets for interventions to prevent and treat depression in children and adolescents. © 2018Item Effect of Impairment on the Prevalence and Comorbidities of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder in a National Survey: Nation-Wide Prevalence and Comorbidities of ADHD(SAGE Publications Inc., 2022) Ercan E.S.; Unsel-Bolat G.; Tufan A.E.; Karakoc Demirkaya S.; Bilac O.; Celik G.; Kılıç B.G.; Akyol Ardic U.; Yalin Sapmaz S.; Aksu H.; Yolga Tahiroglu A.; Karacetin G.; Tural U.; Aktepe E.; Rodopman Arman A.; Başgül S.; Coşkun M.; Dursun O.B.; Durukan İ.; Perdahli Fiş N.; Gençoğlan S.; Gökçen C.; Sarı Gokten E.; Görker I.; Görmez V.; Yıldız Gündoğdu Ö.; Hesapçioğlu S.T.; Kandemir H.; Mutluer T.; Nasiroğlu S.; Özcan Ö.; Şahin N.; Toros F.; Perçinel Yazici İ.; Yazici K.U.; Yulaf Y.; Yüksel T.; Bilgic A.; Altun H.; Akdemir D.; Mazlum B.; Çakın Memik N.; Foto Özdemir D.; Üneri Ö.; Ünal F.Objective: This study aimed to determine the prevalence and comorbidities of attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) by evaluating a large-scale nation-wide sample of children. Method: The inclusion criterion was being enrolled as a 2nd, 3rd, or 4th-grade student. A semi-structured diagnostic interview (K-SADS-PL), DSM-IV-Based Screening Scale for Disruptive Behavior Disorders, and assessment of impairment (by both parents and teachers) were applied to 5,842 participants. Results: The prevalence of ADHD was 19.5% without impairment and 12.4% with impairment. Both ADHD with and without impairment groups had similar psychiatric comorbidity rates except for oppositional defiant disorder (ODD) and conduct disorder (CD) diagnoses. Impairment in the ADHD group resulted in significantly higher ODD and CD diagnoses. Conclusion: Even when impairment is not described, other psychiatric disorders accompany the diagnosis of ADHD and may cause impairment in the future. Impairment in the diagnosis of ADHD significantly increases the likelihood of ODD and CD. © ©The Author(s) 2021.Item Index depressive episode and antidepressant exposure were associated with illness characteristics of pediatric bipolar disorder(John Wiley and Sons Inc, 2022) Inal N.; Ermis C.; Koc D.; Aksoy S.; Karacetin G.; Tuncturk M.; Eray S.; Karabina B.; Faruk Akca O.; Ozgul D.; Gunay Kilic B.; Cikili Uytun M.; Besenek M.; Kavurma C.; Bilac O.; Gokcen C.; Topal Z.; Percinel Yazıcı I.; Sapmaz S.Y.; Ozyurt G.; Diler R.S.Objective: Pediatric bipolar disorder (PBD) is a serious, recurrent disorder leading to severe functional impairment. As a first mood episode, index episode could affect the long-term course of the illness. This study aimed to investigate the clinical characteristics of youth with PBD from our multicenter, nationwide, naturalistic follow-up samples and to identify (i) the effects of index mood episode and (ii) the effect of previous antidepressant treatments on the age at mania onset of PBD. Method: The study sample consisted of 271 youth with BD-I followed by the child and adolescent psychiatry clinics of seven different university hospitals and three research state hospitals, representing six geographic regions across Turkey. All diagnoses were made according to structured interviews, and all data were retrospectively obtained from clinical records by the clinicians. Results: When patients with index depressive/mixed episodes (IDE, n=129) and patients with index (hypo)manic episodes (IME, n=142) were compared, the total number of mood episodes and rapid cycling feature were significantly higher in the IDE group than in the IME group. The Cox regression analysis adjusted for sociodemographic and illness characteristics revealed female adolescents in the IDE group treated with antidepressants were more likely to have an earlier onset of mania (hazard ratio=2.03, 95% confidence interval=1.31–3.12, p=0.001). Conclusion: This is the first large-scale nationwide follow-up study in Turkey that indicated prior antidepressant treatments were associated with an earlier onset of mania in youth, particularly in adolescent females. Larger prospective studies are needed to identify neurodevelopmental processes underlying PBD and initiate prevention approaches. © 2021 John Wiley & Sons A/S. Published by John Wiley & Sons LtdItem Prevalence, comorbidities and mediators of childhood anxiety disorders in urban Turkey: a national representative epidemiological study(Springer Science and Business Media Deutschland GmbH, 2023) Mutluer T.; Gorker I.; Akdemir D.; Ozdemir D.F.; Ozel O.O.; Vural P.; Tufan A.E.; Karacetin G.; Arman A.R.; Fis N.P.; Demirci E.; Ozmen S.; Hesapcioglu S.T.; Oztop D.; Tural U.; Aktepe E.; Aksu H.; Ardic U.A.; Basgul S.; Bilac O.; Coskun M.; Celik G.G.; Demirkaya S.K.; Dursun O.B.; Durukan I.; Fidan T.; Gokcen C.; Gormez V.; Gundogdu O.Y.; Herguner S.; Kandemir H.; Kilic B.G.; Kilincaslan A.; Nasiroglu S.; Sapmaz S.Y.; Sahin N.; Tahiroglu A.Y.; Toros F.; Unal F.; Yazici I.P.; Yazici K.U.; Isik U.; Ercan E.S.Purpose: The aim of this study is to evaluate the prevalence of anxiety disorders, its correlation with sociodemographic characteristics, its comorbidities with other psychiatric disorders and its predictors in school-aged children. Methods: This study is part of a representative, multi-centered national study that is planned by the Turkish Association of Child and Adolescent Mental Health to evaluate the prevalence of psychopathology among elementary school students in Turkey between the years 2014–2015. Children are screened via Kiddie Schedule for Affective Disorders and Schizophrenia for School Age Children Present and Lifetime Version. Impairment is assessed by a 3-point Likert type scale independently by the parent and the teacher. The final sample included 5842 children with the mean age of 8.7 years. Results: The prevalence of any anxiety disorder without considering impairment is 16.7% and considering impairment is 5.2% in children according to our study. We found significant differences for comorbid Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, Disruptive Behavior Disorder, Mood Disorders, Tic Disorders, Obsessive Compulsive Disorder, Enuresis Nocturna, Encopresis, and Intellectual Disability. Having a history of paternal physical disorder, living in the regions of Marmara, Mediterranean and Black Sea were found to be the main predictors of having childhood anxiety disorders according to the logistic regression analysis. Conclusion: Better understanding of childhood anxiety disorders, comorbid conditions and predictors will result in earlier diagnosis and more appropriate treatment. © 2022, The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer-Verlag GmbH Germany.Item Rate of Overlap between ICD-11 Gaming Disorder and DSM-5 Internet Gaming Disorder along with Turkish Reliability of the Gaming Disorder Scale for Adolescents (GADIS-A)(S. Karger AG, 2023) Tuncturk M.; Karacetin G.; Ermis C.; Ciray R.O.; Can M.; Yesilkaya C.; Atay A.; Alkas G.E.; Kasap D.; Guney O.; Alarslan S.; Cakir B.; Halac E.; Tonyall A.; Elmas F.N.; Turan S.Introduction: The main aims of the current study were (i) to explore the overlap between Internet gaming disorder (IGD) and gaming disorder (GD) diagnoses, (ii) to identify clinical characteristics in clinical settings, and (iii) to measure psychometric properties of the Gaming Disorder Scale for Adolescents (GADIS-A). Methods: 222 adolescents who were followed up within a tertiary-care mental health hospital, were included (IGD/GD group [n = 111], clinical comparison group [n = 90], healthy controls [n = 21]). The tools used were the GADIS-A, Internet Gaming Disorder Scale-Short-Form, The Difficulties in Emotion Regulation Scale (DERS-36), Children's Global Assessment Scale, and a semistructured interview for DSM-5 diagnoses. Results: The overlap rate of IGD and GD is 73%. Comorbid ADHD diagnoses were more commonly found in the IGD group compared to the clinical comparison group. Patients who met GD and IGD diagnoses revealed higher scores in DERS-36. Turkish GADIS-A Item-Total score correlation coefficients were between 0.627 and 0.860. In the sample, there was a high level of correlation between the number of DSM-5 and ICD-11 diagnostic criteria met and GADIS-A scale scores. The Cronbach's alphas if item deleted ranged between 0.942 and 0.954. In addition, treatment refusal was more frequent in the IGD group than in the clinical comparison group. Conclusion: The GADIS-A had good to excellent psychometric properties in Turkish adolescents. Despite having a stricter diagnostic criterion, GD overlapped with IGD in a clinical population. © 2023 S. Karger AG. All rights reserved.
