Timotijevic1, K. Crnic2 1Outpatient Clinik, GH Euromedik, Belgrade, Serbia ; 2Clinical Ward for alcocholics, Hospital for addiction, Belgrade, Serbia Affective spectrum disorders include mood and anxiety disorders, while term functional somatic syndrome describes disorders with chronic pain as dominant symptom, without patognomonic tissue damage, such as fibromialgia, irritable bowel syndrome, headache. Hypothesis of central neuropathic pain explains possibility of descendent inhibitor mechanism of pain deficiency, including noradrenergic and serotonergic projections, or possibility that central suprasegmental sensitisation within the nociceptive pathway, triggered by emotional stressors can caused pain symptoms in both. Serotonergic and noradrenergic pathways and voltage sensitive channels are include in that mechanism. Modern psychopharmacology can improve treatment fot both.Therapeutic action of SSRI's, SNRI's and alfa 2 delta ligands succesfully can increase neurotransmission in malfunctioning CNS pathways and reduce symptoms. Our clinical trial was conducted during 2013/2014. with 57 patient 32 female, 25 male, diagnosed as tension headache, without brain damage or disease, with depressive symptoms. Aim of the trial was to explore usefulness of antidepressant treatment for one of the common functional somatic syndromes as headache.Diagnostic instruments used were HAM-D 17 , CGI, personal diary with registered frequency of headache attakcs were sour documents also. Patient treated with fluoxetine 20 mg daily, during 6 month and instructed to use personal diaries to. Diagnostic instruments were used at base line and after the treatment , when diaries reviewed also. Results showed that iimprovement in scores at HAM-D and CGI's scales was remarkable and frequency of headache attacks lowered. Conclusion was that antidepressants can bee effective in an typical functional somatic syndrome and can improve therapeutic approaches for remarkable large group of patients..

SUMMARY We assess the number of patients who we have on the Database of a Community Mental Health Team in the UK who have Bipolar Disorder and Borderline Personality Disorder. We report how many of these have been seen as having both disorders. Hence we discuss the issue as to whether Borderline Personality disorder is to be placed within the bipolar spectrum. We note the difficulties regarding the use of phenomenology alone to decide this problem, and we note the similarities in genetics, neuroimaging observations and neurobiological mechanisms among the following conditions; Bipolar Disorder, Unipolar Depression, Post- traumatic Stress Disorder, and Borderline Personality Disorder. Ethiologies such as Trauma, Abuse, Childhood adversity and exposure to War appear to influence all these conditions via epigenetic mechanisms. Hence we argue that for a spectrum to be proposed, conditions in the spectrum need to be underpinned by similar or common Neuroimaging and neurobiological mechanisms.On this basis, it may be reasonable to include Borderline Personality Disorder within a broadly described bipolar

There can be no professional care without a solid foundation centered on trust and assertive communication. It is only then that competences such as Social Intelligence (SI) can play a defining role since they provide the physician with the practical skills, theoretical knowledge, and relevant attitudes to establish a professional relationship with the patient. Daniel Goleman presents the concept of SI as a continuation of his work on EI, where the whole cognitive process arises from self-knowledge, the ability to delve into the different spheres of the emotional-affective spectrum and self-regulation. Later, the social relationship is reached when the emotional recognition of others is based on the individual capacity for empathy which, together with a harmonized regulation, leads to the development of healthy social skills.

Aspects of the Affective Disorders and the Affective Temperaments in Medical Students from Rostov-On-Don, Russia
E3S Web of Conferences 210, 19022 (2020) https://doi.org/10.1051/e3sconf/202021019022 ITSE-2020 Aspects of the affective disorders and the affective temperaments in medical students from Rostov-on-Don, Russia Maxim Dmitriev1,2,*, Ekaterina Nikitenko3, Maria Mamedova2, Nikita Spryshkov2 1Don State Technical University, Rostov-on-Don, 344010, Russia 2Rostov State Medical University, Rostov-on-Don, 344022, Russia 3School 499, Saint-Petersburg, 195112, Russia Abstract. Affective disorders are widespread among student youth. Anxiety and depression are the most common disorders, but thorough diagnostics reveals other emotional disturbances as well, which may imply bipolar disorder (BD). BD is associated with a wide range of adverse outcomes; therefore, it is important to identify masking symptoms that predict the onset and course of BD. One of the predictors of bipolar disorder is the temperament. The present study aimed to analyze the entire spectrum of affective disorders and determine the correlation between them and the affective temperaments. The study involved 106 medical students. They completed the following autoquestionnaires: PHQ-9, ASRM, GAD-7, ShARS, HCL-32 and TEMPS-A. Conducting analyses, the results of the HCL-32 questionnaire were statistically significantly correlating with the results of GAD-7 (p = 0.034) and the hyperthymic (p = 0.000), cyclothymic (p = 0.000) and excitable (p = 0.004) temperaments according to TEMPS- A. When dividing the total sample into two groups, based on the HCL-32 questionnaire data, a higher incidence of depressive disorders on the PHQ- 9 scale (p = 0.023) was found among respondents who scored more than 14 points on the HCL-32.

The ICD-10 Classification of Mental and Behavioural Disorders
The ICD-10 Classification of Mental and Behavioural Disorders Clinical descriptions and diagnostic guidelines World Health Organization -1- Preface In the early 1960s, the Mental Health Programme of the World Health Organization (WHO) became actively engaged in a programme aiming to improve the diagnosis and classification of mental disorders. At that time, WHO convened a series of meetings to review knowledge, actively involving representatives of different disciplines, various schools of thought in psychiatry, and all parts of the world in the programme. It stimulated and conducted research on criteria for classification and for reliability of diagnosis, and produced and promulgated procedures for joint rating of videotaped interviews and other useful research methods. Numerous proposals to improve the classification of mental disorders resulted from the extensive consultation process, and these were used in drafting the Eighth Revision of the International Classification of Diseases (ICD-8). A glossary defining each category of mental disorder in ICD-8 was also developed. The programme activities also resulted in the establishment of a network of individuals and centres who continued to work on issues related to the improvement of psychiatric classification (1, 2). The 1970s saw further growth of interest in improving psychiatric classification worldwide. Expansion of international contacts, the undertaking of several international collaborative studies, and the availability of new treatments all contributed to this trend. Several national psychiatric bodies encouraged the development of specific criteria for classification in order to improve diagnostic reliability. In particular, the American Psychiatric Association developed and promulgated its Third Revision of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual, which incorporated operational criteria into its classification system.

Barlow1, Shannon Sauer-Zavala1, Jenna R. Carl1, Jacqueline R. Bullis1, and Kristen K. Ellard2,3 1Department of Psychology, Boston University; 2Massachusetts General Hospital, Boston, Massachusetts; and 3Harvard Medical School Abstract We highlight the role of neuroticism in the development and course of emotional disorders and make a case for shifting the focus of intervention to this higher-order dimension of personality. Recent decades have seen great emphasis placed on differentiating disorders into Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders diagnoses; however, evidence has suggested that splitting disorders into such fine categories may be highlighting relatively trivial differences. Emerging research on the latent structure of anxiety and mood disorders has indicated that trait neuroticism, cultivated through genetic, neurobiological, and psychological factors, underscores the development of these disorders. We raise the possibility of a new approach for conceptualizing these disorders—as emotional disorders. From a service-delivery point of view, we explore the possibility that neuroticism may be

The Role of Emotional Schemas in Anxiety and Depression Among
Psychology in Russia: State of the Art Russian Lomonosov Psychological Moscow State Volume 11, Issue 4, 2018 Society University Te Role of Emotional Schemas in Anxiety and Depression among Russian Medical Students Natalya A. Sirota, Denis V. Moskovchenko*, Vladimir M. Yaltonsky, Alexandra V. Yaltonskaya A.I. Yevdokimov Moscow State University of Medicine and Dentistry, Moscow, Russia Corresponding author. E-mail: [email protected] Background. Academic success in a higher education institution requires the ability to process large amounts of information in a relatively short period of time, including hav- ing profciency at a high level of basic knowledge, and an ability to cope with stress. Continual study overload, a competitive environment, and ethical dilemmas (e.g. “How should I deal with human sufering?”, “How should I convey the diagnosis?”, “How should I tell someone that palliative treatment is the only option?”, “What if I make a mistake?”) can all result in anxiety and depression. Research has shown that students who show signs of anxiety and depression may have maladaptive cognitive strategies for processing their emotional experiences. In the medical community, the rules concerning one’s own emotions are, on one hand, determined by specifc ethical standards (e.g., the idea that physicians should not show their emotions), and on the other, by the stressful situation itself, which requires taking responsibility for another person’s life. Te additional stress point is the need for constant study, which requires a pro-active attitude and learning more and more skills. A signifcant number of physicians tend to ignore their own emo- tional experiences, or suppress them.

Berner ✉ , Ofer Perl , Matthew He in , Kaustubh Kulkarni , Dongil Chung 4, Soojung Na2, Vincenzo G. Fiore1 and Xiaosi Gu 1,2 © The Author(s) 2021 Crises such as the COVID-19 pandemic are known to exacerbate depression and anxiety, though their temporal trajectories remain under-investigated. The present study aims to investigate ﬂuctuations in depression and anxiety using the COVID-19 pandemic as a model crisis. A total of 1512 adults living in the United States enrolled in this online study beginning April 2, 2020 and were assessed weekly for 10 weeks (until June 4, 2020). We measured depression and anxiety using the Zung Self-Rating Depression scale and State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (state subscale), respectively, along with demographic and COVID-related surveys. Linear mixed-effects models were used to examine factors contributing to longitudinal changes in depression and anxiety. We found that depression and anxiety levels were high in early April, but declined over time. Being female, younger age, lower-income, and previous psychiatric diagnosis correlated with higher overall levels of anxiety and depression; being married additionally correlated with lower overall levels of depression, but not anxiety. Importantly, worsening of COVID-related economic impact and increase in projected pandemic duration exacerbated both depression and anxiety over time. Finally, increasing levels of informedness correlated with decreasing levels of depression, while increased COVID-19 severity (i.e., 7-day change in cases) and social media use were positively associated with anxiety over time.
