Disorders of the Nervous Tissue01:28

Disorders of the Nervous Tissue

Nervous tissue is a vital component of the human body's communication system, enabling us to perceive and respond to stimuli. However, like all other tissues, it is vulnerable to disorders and diseases that can significantly impact our neurological functioning.
Homeostatic Imbalances:
Alzheimer's disease manifests as a gradual decline in memory and cognitive abilities, attributed to the buildup of amyloid plaques and neurofibrillary tangles in the brain.
Parkinson's disease arises from the...

Psychosis: Pathophysiology of Schizophrenia and Other Psychotic Disorders

Schizophrenia is a neurodevelopmental disorder whose origins are rooted in complex genetic components. Despite our burgeoning understanding, the pathophysiology of this disorder remains incompletely deciphered.
Researchers have identified genetic factors that increase susceptibility to schizophrenia, underscoring the intricate interplay between genetics and environment in disease development. At the core of schizophrenia's pathophysiology is excessive dopaminergic neurotransmission within the...
Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM)01:27

Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM)

The Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM) serves as the primary classification system for mental health disorders, providing standardized diagnostic criteria for clinicians and researchers. First published by the American Psychiatric Association (APA) in 1952, the DSM has undergone several revisions to reflect evolving psychiatric understanding. The fifth edition, DSM-5, released in 2013, introduced key updates that expanded diagnostic categories and modified diagnostic...
Introduction to Psychological Disorders01:19

Introduction to Psychological Disorders

Abnormal behavior, often referred to as mental illness, results from changes in brain function that influence thought patterns, behaviors, and social interactions. Psychologists and psychiatrists typically assess abnormal behavior using three primary criteria: deviance, maladaptation, and personal distress, particularly when these traits persist over long periods.
Deviant Behavior
Deviance in behavior refers to actions or thought patterns that significantly diverge from societal norms or...
Theoretical Approaches to Psychological Disorder01:29

Theoretical Approaches to Psychological Disorder

The development of psychological disorders, which are characterized by deviant, maladaptive, and personally distressing behaviors, has been explored through several theoretical approaches.
Biological approach
The biological approach posits that internal, organic factors are the primary causes of such disorders. This perspective emphasizes brain structure and function, genetic predispositions, and neurotransmitter imbalances. For example, schizophrenia has been associated with both genetic...
Parkinson's Disease: Overview01:15

Parkinson's Disease: Overview

Neurodegenerative disorders are progressive diseases that cause irreversible damage and loss to neurons in specific brain areas. Examples of these disorders include Parkinson's disease, Alzheimer's disease, Multiple Sclerosis (MS), and Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS). These disorders share characteristics such as proteinopathies, selective neuronal vulnerability, and a complex interplay between genetic and environmental factors. The primary therapeutic goal for these conditions is to...

Summary

Psychiatric disorders are common in neurological conditions and often overlooked. Early recognition and integrated treatment of these psychiatric symptoms are crucial for better patient outcomes.

Area of Science:

  • Neurology
  • Psychiatry

Background:

  • Psychiatric disorders (PDs) are frequently underestimated in neurological conditions across all healthcare settings.
  • Psychiatric symptoms (PSs) in neurological disorders (NDs) are often neglected by physicians outside of psychiatry.
  • Anxiety and depression are common, but other PSs like hallucinations and delirium also frequently co-occur with NDs.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To highlight the prevalence and types of psychiatric symptoms in neurological disorders.
  • To emphasize the necessity of recognizing and treating these comorbid conditions in routine neurological examinations.
  • To underscore the bidirectional relationship between depression and neurological disorders.

Main Methods:

  • The study provides an overview of the frequency and types of psychiatric symptoms in neurological patients.

  • It reviews the literature on the comorbidity of psychiatric disorders with various neurological conditions.
  • Discussion includes the bidirectional relationship between depression and neurological disorders.

    • Main Results:

    • Psychiatric disorders are more common in neurology than typically recognized.
    • Common comorbidities include anxiety, depression, hallucinations, delusions, and cognitive impairment (dementia).
    • Neurological disorders like stroke, epilepsy, multiple sclerosis, and Parkinson's disease are frequently associated with PSs.

    Conclusions:

    • There is a significant need to recognize and treat psychiatric symptoms in patients with neurological disorders.
    • Integrated treatment approaches, including pharmacotherapy and psychiatric care, are essential.
    • Addressing PSs is critical for comprehensive patient management in neurology.
