Item The relationship between schizophrenia and kavum septum pellucidum: A case study(Yerkure Tanitim ve Yayincilik, 2014) Ascibasi K.; Aydin O.; Kuzu D.; Deveci A.Septum pellucidum that forming the medial wall of the lateral ventricles, a thin layer is formed by two laminae. Cavum septum pellucidum (CSP), a space between the two leaflets of the septi pellucidi, is thought to be a neurodevelopmental anomaly associated with schizophrenia. In normal fetal development, the formation of septum pellucidum occurs at the same time with the development of the neighboring limbic system structures such as hippocampus, amygdala, corpus callosum, septal nucleus. Therefore, the anatomical differences that are detected in the septum pellucidum may reflect the embryonal development disorders of the adjacent anatomical structures. Several magnetic resonance imaging studies have reported a higher prevalence of enlarged CSP in patients with schizophrenia than in normal subjects. In the literature of psychiatric disorders, CSP is most associated with schizophrenia. Wide CSP may support the neurodevelopmental etiology of schizophrenia. In this report we present a schizophrenia case. And we tried to discuss the patient's clinical appearance and neurocognitive disability.Item Relation of the nine types of temperament model with personality disorders(Yerkure Tanitim ve Yayincilik, 2016) Yilmaz E.D.; Gencer A.G.; Unal O.; Palanci M.; Kandemir M.; Selcuk Z.; Aydemir O.Objective: Aim of this study is to determine the correspondence between personality categories and the types making up the Nine Types of Temperament Model (NTTM)-a new temperament model which evaluates personality disorders within the context of temperament traits and maladaptive personality features-and conceptualization of NTTM types. Method: The sample group is composed of 117 participants with a personality disorder. SCID II and Nine Types of Temperament Scale (NTTS) were applied to participants. Results: According to the findings, all NTTM types have shown significant correlation with at least one personality disorder. According to the regression analysis results, it was determined that the NTTM types were explained by personality disorders at a rate of 19-41%. Conclusions: In this study, it is found that knowing the temperament features that form the basis of an individual's personality structure is helpful to diagnose and to determine the tendency to develop personality disorders that are pathological responses to personality characteristics. In addition, this study brings up questions such as whether the individual differences between patients with the same personality disorders can be evaluated on the basis of temperament and whether it is possible to determine therapy and treatment approaches according to an individual's temperament type.Item Manifestation of hashimoto's encephalopathy with psychotic signs: A case presentation(Yerkure Tanitim ve Yayincilik, 2016) Kisabay A.; Balikci K.; Sari S.; Selcuki D.Hashimoto's encephalopathy (HE) is a rare autoimmune disease with unclear pathophysiology, developing on the basis of Hashimoto's thyroiditis (HT), associated with antithyroid antibodies, that presents with autoimmune, neuroendocrine, and neuropsychiatric findings. The disease is characterized by generalized or focal slowing in the EEG, elevated antithyroid antibody titration in the serum, elevated cerebrospinal fluid protein level, and the presence of antithyroid antibodies. HE is known as an autoimmune disorder of the central nervous system. With this feature, it is differentiated from cognitive alterations observed in hypothyroidism or hyperthyroidism. The response to treatment with corticosteroids in line with the autoimmune nature of HE supports this diagnosis. This report shows a case presenting with neuropsychiatric symptoms, elevated antithyroid antibody titration in the serum, and complete response to steroid therapy. A clear indicator for the diagnosis of HE has not yet been found. Therefore, other potential causes need to be considered in the differential diagnosis of this clinical picture until they can be excluded after investigations. With this case report, we want to emphasize that in differential diagnosis of patients presenting with a variety of neuropsychiatric symptoms, Hashimoto's encephalopathy-though being seen quite rarely-should not be disregarded, given the dramatic improvement of patients receiving a correct diagnosis and appropriate treatment.Item Functioning and quality of life in bipolar disorder(Yerkure Tanitim ve Yayincilik, 2016) Aydemir O.[No abstract available]Item Validity and reliability of the Turkish version of the DSM-5 "Severity Measure for Agoraphobia-Child Age 11-17"(Yerkure Tanitim ve Yayincilik, 2017) Sapmaz S.Y.; Erkuran H.O.; Ergin D.; Ozturk M.; Celasin N.S.; Karaarslan D.; Koroglu E.; Aydemir O.Objective: This study aimed to assess the validity and reliability of the Turkish version of the DSM-5 "Severity Measure for Agoraphobia-Child Age 11-17". Method: Study group consisted of 36 patients, who have been treated in a child psychiatry unit and diagnosed with agoraphobia, and 100 healthy volunteers who have been secondary and highschool students. For the assessment, the Screen for Childhood Anxiety and Related Emotional Disorders (SCARED) was used along with the DSM-5 "Severity Measure for Agoraphobia-Child Age 11-17". Results: Regarding reliability analyses, Cronbach's alpha internal consistency coefficient was calculated as 0.929. Test-retest correlation coefficient was 0.566. For concurrent validity, the measure showed a high correlation with the SCARED. In ROC analysis, area under ROC curve was calculated as 0.934. Conclusion: It was concluded that Turkish version of the DSM-5 "Severity Measure for Agoraphobia-Child Age 11-17" could be used as a valid and reliable tool both in clinical practice and for research purposes.Item Validity and reliability of the Turkish version of DSM-5 "Severity of Acute Stress Symptoms-Child Age 11-17" Form(Yerkure Tanitim ve Yayincilik, 2017) Sapmaz S.Y.; Erkuran H.O.; Ergin D.; Celasin N.S.; Karaarslan D.; Ozturk M.; Koroglu E.; Aydemir O.Objective: This study aimed to assess the validity and reliability of the Turkish version of DSM-5 "Severity of Acute Stress Symptoms-Child Age 11-17" Form. Method: The scale was prepared by carrying out the translation and back- translation of DSM-5 "Severity of Acute Stress Symptoms-Child Age 11-17" Form. Study group consisted of 30 patients that have been treated in a child psychiatry clinic and diagnosed with posttraumatic stress disorder and 40 healthy volunteers that attended middle or high school at the study period. For the assessment, Child Posttraumatic Stress Reaction Index was also used along with DSM-5 "Severity of Acute Stress Symptoms-Child Age 11-17" Form Results: Regarding reliability analyses, Cronbach alpha coefficient for internal consistency was calculated as 0.918 while item- total score correlation coefficients ranged 0.595-0.837. Test-retest correlation coefficient was calculated as r=0.651. Concerning construct validity, one factor that could explain 67.7% of the variance was obtained. With respect to concurrent validity, the scale showed a high correlation with Child Posttraumatic Stress Reaction Index. Conclusion: It was concluded that Turkish version of DSM-5 "Severity of Acute Stress Symptoms-Child Age 11-17" Form could be used as a valid and reliable tool both in clinical practice and for research purposes.Item Validity and reliability of the Turkish version of the severity measure for specific phobia - child form according to DSM-5(Yerkure Tanitim ve Yayincilik, 2018) Sapmaz S.Y.; Erkuran H.O.; Ergin D.; Ozturk M.; Celasin N.S.; Karaarslan D.; Koroglu E.; Aydemir O.Objective: This study aimed to assess the validity and reliability of the Turkish version of the Severity Measure for Specific Phobia - Child Form according to DSM-5. Method: The study group consisted of 50 patients treated in a child psychiatry unit and diagnosed with any specific phobia and 100 healthy volunteers. For the assessment, the Screen for Childhood Anxiety and Related Emotional Disorders (SCARED) was used along with the Severity Measure for Specific Phobia - Child Form according to DSM-5. Results: For reliability, Cronbach's alpha internal consistency coefficient was calculated to be 0.961. Test-retest correlation coefficient was calculated r=0.750. As for construct validity, one factor that could explain 74.1% of the variance was obtained, which is consistent with the original structure of the scale. As for concurrent validity, the correlation coefficient with the SCARED in children is r=0.480. Conclusion: It was concluded that the Turkish version of the DSM-5 Severity Measure for Specific Phobia - Child Form can be utilized as a valid and reliable tool both in clinical practice and for research purposes. © 2018 Dusunen Adam.
