This enjoyable journey has been rewarding, resulting in the first edition of this book being published in 2013.We have gained largely by this process & enjoyed the venture immensely. A revised free e-edition of this book was planned, to enable easy access to psychiatric knowledge. The contents are presented in diverse ways - concise articles, narratives from senior consultants, Myths & Facts, MCQs, Crosswords & chapters on core psychiatric issues. Obviously this is not a textbook on psychiatry as the title rightly conveys "glimpses of psychiatry…" This revised edition commemorates our fourth year in this venture. Although the revised edition does not see very major changes, some chapters have been added on. The editorial team saw an additional member, Dr Naresh Nebhinani, who invested a great deal of time and energy into this edition. Availability of an electronic version makes access to information much easier, and thankfully "Minds United for Health Sciences & Humanity", which had the copyright, agreed to release it for free. The free e-copy thus compliments the availability of the hard copy. With the support of many we have succeeded in delivering a copy of the book to all medical colleges in India, and a few to Nepal & Sri Lanka. Mr Vinayaka Murthy M. and his son Dr. Arunkumar V. played a key role in this process and we are thankful to them. We are thankful to all authors for their contribution and consent to release this free edition. Dr Shubhangi Dere has taken up the task of leading MINDS for the year 2014-15, she will continue to update the readers. Once again thanks to all of you, please continue your support & send us your feedback, suggestions & corrections to [email protected] Happy Reading Dr Kishor M Dr Vinay HR Dr Kiran Kumar K Dr Lakshmi V Pandit Dr Naresh Nebhinani iv 6 Glimpses of Psychiatry for Doctors & Medical Students Preface to the First Edition For majority of the medical profession, Psychiatry has largely remained a subject where myths and misconceptions have overshadowed scientific knowledge. Numerous issues have contributed to this status: a possible confusion in the delineation of normality from abnormality, a lack of objective signs and symptoms or diagnostic investigations, and an inadequate exposure & training in psychiatry during the undergraduate course, to state a few. This has a negative impact on the ability of the medical fraternity to handle psychiatric morbidity efficiently, exposing individuals with psychiatry disorder to be exploited by those who are not qualified. With this background, the book has been compiled in order to make an attempt to create awareness among doctors and medical students, regarding psychiatric illnesses. Information has been presented in a simple & educative manner, using an easy and attractive format , for diverse groups of readers in the medical fraternity, ranging from medical students to practitioners in all branches. It also contains a compilation of the issues of 'MINDS' that have been released over the past two years. This unique book has over 20 specialty articles spanning Anatomy to Cardiology in the section on consultation liaison psychiatry written by experts in those fields, stressing the importance of psychiatry in all areas of medical science. Probably, the real joy of the book presentation is the cafeteria approach, wherein readers will have a large variety of material to choose from, ranging from specific chapters, articles, multiple choice questions, solving crosswords, or reading the experiences of experts in the section aptly named 'Down the memory lane…' This will also be, probably for the first time, that this entire book will be avilable in an exclusive website www.psychiatry4u.com, www.mindsnewsletter.com We are also happy to inform all the authors who have contributed to this book and the readers, that the proceedings from the sale of this book will be utilized to strengthen our continued efforts to provide knowledge and create awareness about psychiatry, without any fee. v Glimpses of Psychiatry for Doctors & Medical Students 7 We look forward to your feedback and support, as always.

  • INSTRUMENTAL CONDITIONED REFLEXES with SEXUAL REINFORCEMENT in RATS the Purpose of the Present Work Was to Elaborate a Method Of
    ACTA NEUROBIOL. EXP. 1971, 31: 251-262 INSTRUMENTAL CONDITIONED REFLEXES WITH SEXUAL REINFORCEMENT IN RATS Jozef BECK Department of Mother Welfare, Research Institute of Mother and Child Health, Warsaw 20. Poland The purpose of the present work was to elaborate a method of in- vestigation of the instrumental CRs with sexual reinforcement. The examination of such reflexes in various experimental situations gives more precise information about sexual drive levels than simple observa- tion of sexual behavior. Moreover, this is the only way for obtaining exact data concerning the changes in the drive level in females during the mating behavior. As in natural conditions the intervals between copulations, which can be treated as the indicator of these changes, are imposed by the male. There is a small number of findings concerned with instrumental sexual reflexes (Sheffield et al. 1951, Denniston 1954, Kagan 1955, Beach and Jordan 1956, Bermant 1961, Peirce and Nuttall 1961, Bolles et al. 1968) in comparison to those which concern instrumental alimentary or defensive reflexes. Therefore, a comparison between unconditioned ali- mentary and sexual reflexes seems desirable and scientifically interesting. Both reflexes belong to the group of preservative reflexes (Konorski 1970). While the biological role of the unconditioned alimentary reflex is preservation of individual life, the sexual reflex is responsible for con- tinuation of the life of the species. In both unconditioned reflexes two components are observed: the drive and the consummatory responses. For the unconditioned alimentary reflex the drive is hunger, manifested by behavior directed to reach food and the consummatory reaction is the act of food digesting.

  • The Rare Phenomenon of Consecutive Ejaculations in Male Rats
    Brief Report The Rare Phenomenon of Consecutive Ejaculations in Male Rats Joanna M. Mainwaring 1, Angela C. B. Garcia 1, Elaine M. Hull 2 and Erik Wibowo 1,* 1 Department of Anatomy, University of Otago, Dunedin 9016, New Zealand; [email protected] (J.M.M.); [email protected] (A.C.B.G.) 2 Department of Psychology, Florida State University, Tallahassee, FL 32306, USA; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] Abstract: Mounting, intromission and ejaculation are commonly reported sexual behaviours in male rats. In a mating session, they can have several copulatory series with post-ejaculatory intervals in between ejaculations before they reach sexual satiety. Here, we describe a phenomenon where male rats displayed consecutive ejaculations (CE) with a short inter-ejaculatory interval (IEI). Male rats were daily mated with a sexually receptive female rat. Two out of 15 rats displayed CE in one of their mating tests. The first rat had CE at 9.9 and 10.1 min (IEI = 16.3 s) after the start of the test. The second rat showed CE at 28.1 and 28.5 min (IEI = 18.7 s) after the test onset. During the IEI, the rats did not show any mounting or intromission. Keywords: multiple ejaculations; male rodents; male sexual behaviour; multiple orgasms; consum- matory behaviour; refractory period Citation: Mainwaring, J.M.; Garcia, 1. Introduction A.C.B.; Hull, E.M.; Wibowo, E. The Male sexual behaviours in rodents are characterised by three distinct behaviours: Rare Phenomenon of Consecutive mounting, intromission, and ejaculation [1,2].
