Dickstein, M.D., M.A. Amir Garakani, M.D. April 2007 1 PREFACE TO THE SECOND EDITION Tonya Foreman, M.D. In the spring of 1999, twenty-five psychiatry residents met in White Plains, New York, to begin a two-year term as Sol Ginsburg Fellows with the Group for the Advancement of Psychiatry (GAP). As Ginsburg Fellows, we were invited to attend biannual meetings of the GAP and serve on standing GAP committees with distinguished psychiatrists from around the United States. In addition, we were asked to develop a Ginsburg Fellows’ project. We spent several hours scratching our heads and wondering what we, as psychiatry residents, could contribute to an organization filled with the nation’s psychiatric leaders. “We’re not experts at anything yet,” we told each other. “We don’t have anything to contribute.” Then it dawned on us – we were experts at being psychiatric residents! We represented training programs from Hawaii to Kansas to Canada. Collectively, we formed a rich tapestry of experiences as psychiatric residents and as individuals. During the evolution of this project, members of our group completed a variety of fellowships, discovered the challenges of parenthood, struggled through divorces, and graduated from residency to take "real jobs!” And yes, we are even paying back our student loans. As this book progressed, we collaborated with members of the American Psychiatric Association’s Committee on Women in order to insure that our project addressed the needs of women and minorities. We are grateful for their assistance and for their sensitivity to issues that affect many residents. In 2006, Amir Garakani, M.D., an APA/GlaxoSmithKline fellow, approached staff at the APA about producing a second edition of the book. He believed strongly that in addition to using excellent on-line resources, psychiatric residents wanted a handbook that they could actually hold in their hands, drop in their pockets, and read at their leisure. His tireless pursuit of the project led to the publication of this, the second edition of The Resident’s Guide to Surviving Psychiatric Training. Dr. Garakani’s thoughtful appraisal of the first edition prompted the creation of several chapters that make this edition more timely and complete. The authors who contributed to this book realize from firsthand experience that the vicissitudes of everyday life do not stop because you are a struggling resident. Even though you are emotionally, intellectually, and physically exhausted by the demands of training, your dog will still have to go to the vet, your car will break down, and the dirty laundry will inexplicably multiply in your hamper. As a 2 resident, you will be asked to spend much of your time and energy tending to the needs of others. As some of your own needs go unmet, you may become disillusioned or cynical. In order to complete residency and become the physician you envisioned when you filled out your medical school application, you will have to develop skills and coping mechanisms that allow you to manage your own life as you take care of others. This book was written by psychiatric residents for psychiatric residents. We tried to pool our collective experiences to produce a handbook that would help you with the day-to-day challenges of psychiatric residency. This is not a clinical handbook – many excellent clinical handbooks already exist. This book contains the kind of advice we’d give to you if we could sit together over a cup of coffee and a stale donut in the hospital cafeteria. We have traveled the path you are now taking. We hope that we can provide some encouragement and advice to make your trip a bit easier.

  • Autism Practice Parameters
    American Academy of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry AACAP is pleased to offer Practice Parameters as soon as they are approved by the AACAP Council, but prior to their publication in the Journal of the American Academy of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry (JAACAP). This article may be revised during the JAACAP copyediting, author query, and proof reading processes. Any final changes in the document will be made at the time of print publication and will be reflected in the final electronic version of the Practice Parameter. AACAP and JAACAP, and its respective employees, are not responsible or liable for the use of any such inaccurate or misleading data, opinion, or information contained in this iteration of this Practice Parameter. PRACTICE PARAMETER FOR THE ASSESSMENT AND TREATMENT OF CHILDREN AND ADOLESCENTS WITH AUTISM SPECTRUM DISORDER ABSTRACT Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is characterized by patterns of delay and deviance in the development of social, communicative, and cognitive skills which arise in the first years of life. Although frequently associated with intellectual disability, this condition is distinctive in terms of its course, impact, and treatment. ASD has a wide range of syndrome expression and its management presents particular challenges for clinicians. Individuals with an ASD can present for clinical care at any point in development. The multiple developmental and behavioral problems associated with this condition necessitate multidisciplinary care, coordination of services, and advocacy for individuals and their families. Early, sustained intervention and the use of multiple treatment modalities are indicated. Key Words: autism, practice parameters, guidelines, developmental disorders, pervasive developmental disorders.

  • Specificity of Psychosis, Mania and Major Depression in A
    Molecular Psychiatry (2014) 19, 209–213 & 2014 Macmillan Publishers Limited All rights reserved 1359-4184/14 www.nature.com/mp ORIGINAL ARTICLE Specificity of psychosis, mania and major depression in a contemporary family study CL Vandeleur1, KR Merikangas2, M-PF Strippoli1, E Castelao1 and M Preisig1 There has been increasing attention to the subgroups of mood disorders and their boundaries with other mental disorders, particularly psychoses. The goals of the present paper were (1) to assess the familial aggregation and co-aggregation patterns of the full spectrum of mood disorders (that is, bipolar, schizoaffective (SAF), major depression) based on contemporary diagnostic criteria; and (2) to evaluate the familial specificity of the major subgroups of mood disorders, including psychotic, manic and major depressive episodes (MDEs). The sample included 293 patients with a lifetime diagnosis of SAF disorder, bipolar disorder and major depressive disorder (MDD), 110 orthopedic controls, and 1734 adult first-degree relatives. The diagnostic assignment was based on all available information, including direct diagnostic interviews, family history reports and medical records. Our findings revealed specificity of the familial aggregation of psychosis (odds ratio (OR) ¼ 2.9, confidence interval (CI): 1.1–7.7), mania (OR ¼ 6.4, CI: 2.2–18.7) and MDEs (OR ¼ 2.0, CI: 1.5–2.7) but not hypomania (OR ¼ 1.3, CI: 0.5–3.6). There was no evidence for cross-transmission of mania and MDEs (OR ¼ .7, CI:.5–1.1), psychosis and mania (OR ¼ 1.0, CI:.4–2.7) or psychosis and MDEs (OR ¼ 1.0, CI:.7–1.4).

  • 2021 Psychiatry CERT Content Specifications
    CERTIFICATION EXAMINATION IN PSYCHIATRY Beginning in 2017, the American Board of Psychiatry and Neurology, Inc. (ABPN) issued two- dimensional content specifications for the psychiatry, neurology and child neurology certification examinations. Questions for the September 2021 psychiatry, neurology and child neurology certification examinations will conform to these content specifications. Within the two-dimensional format, one dimension is comprised of disorders and topics while the other is comprised of competencies and mechanisms that cut across the various disorders of the first dimension. By design, the two dimensions are interrelated and not independent of each other. All of the questions on the examination will fall into one of the disorders/topics and will be aligned with a competency/mechanism. For example, an item on substance use could focus on treatment, or it could focus on systems-based practice. The psychiatry, neurology and child neurology content specifications can be accessed from the specialty certification section of our website. Candidates should use the detailed content specifications as a guide to prepare for a certification examination. Scores for these examinations will be reported in a standardized format rather than the previous percent correct format. Starting in 2018, all future examinations given by the ABPN will gradually conform to the two- dimensional content specification. The American Board of Psychiatry and Neurology, Inc. is a not-for-profit corporation dedicated to serving the public interest and the professions of psychiatry and neurology by promoting excellence in practice through certification and continuing certification processes.

  • From Sacred Plants to Psychotherapy
    From Sacred Plants to Psychotherapy: The History and Re-Emergence of Psychedelics in Medicine By Dr. Ben Sessa ‘The rejection of any source of evidence is always treason to that ultimate rationalism which urges forward science and philosophy alike’ - Alfred North Whitehead Introduction: What exactly is it that fascinates people about the psychedelic drugs? And how can we best define them? 1. Most psychiatrists will define psychedelics as those drugs that cause an acute confusional state. They bring about profound alterations in consciousness and may induce perceptual distortions as part of an organic psychosis. 2. Another definition for these substances may come from the cross-cultural dimension. In this context psychedelic drugs may be recognised as ceremonial religious tools, used by some non-Western cultures in order to communicate with the spiritual world. 3. For many lay people the psychedelic drugs are little more than illegal and dangerous drugs of abuse – addictive compounds, not to be distinguished from cocaine and heroin, which are only understood to be destructive - the cause of an individual, if not society’s, destruction. 4. But two final definitions for psychedelic drugs – and those that I would like the reader to have considered by the end of this article – is that the class of drugs defined as psychedelic, can be: a) Useful and safe medical treatments. Tools that as adjuncts to psychotherapy can be used to alleviate the symptoms and course of many mental illnesses, and 1 b) Vital research tools with which to better our understanding of the brain and the nature of consciousness. Classifying psychedelic drugs: 1,2 The drugs that are often described as the ‘classical’ psychedelics include LSD-25 (Lysergic Diethylamide), Mescaline (3,4,5- trimethoxyphenylathylamine), Psilocybin (4-hydroxy-N,N-dimethyltryptamine) and DMT (dimethyltryptamine).

However, the application of epigenetic principles to the study of human behavior is a relatively new endeavor. In this paper we discuss the ‘Developmental Origins of Health and Disease’ including the role of fetal programming. We then review epigenetic principles related to fetal programming and the recent application of epigenetics to behavior. We focus on the neuroendocrine system and develop a simple heuristic stress-related model to illustrate how epigenetic changes in placental genes could predispose the infant to neurobehavioral profiles that interact with postnatal environmental factors potentially leading to mental health disorders.
