Borderline Personality Disorder and Posttraumatic Stress Disorder: Unique Patterns of Emotion Reactivity and RegulationDeFontes, Clara 28 October 2022 (has links) (PDF)
Both borderline personality disorder (BPD) and posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) are associated with emotion dysfunction and often co-occur. Emotional reactivity is also evident in some studies in BPD and PTSD. Despite the frequent co-occurrence of these diagnoses, only a few studies have examined the independent and joint effects of BPD and PTSD on emotional functioning. Some data suggest that co-occurring PTSD may drive discordance between domains of emotional reactivity in BPD, dampening physiological reactivity but increasing subjective reactivity. Low reliance on acceptance-based emotion regulation may also account for this divergence. The current study examined the independent and interactive effects of BPD and PTSD on emotional reactivity, regulation, and concordance across physiological and subjective measures. We also examined the role of acceptance in driving concordance across physiological and subjective measures. Participants (N = 195) underwent a diagnostic interview and completed a computerized task including neutral and negative emotion inductions. We examined subjective and physiological outcomes after both inductions. Linear regressions were used to examine relationships between diagnostic group and self-reported reactivity and regulation outcomes, as well the mediating role of acceptance on discordance. Multilevel models were used to examine the associations between diagnostic criteria and time on reactivity and regulation outcomes. We found that BPD and BPDxPTSD, but not PTSD, were significantly associated with greater difficulty regulating and accepting emotions. No significant differences in physiological reactivity and regulation were present across diagnostic groups, and acceptance was not found as a mediator between diagnostic groups and discordance indices. We discuss possible interpretations of our reactivity and regulation findings. Investigating BPD and PTSD’s association with reactivity and regulation, along with the role of emotional acceptance on these outcomes, will extend our understanding of diagnostic profiles and potentially pinpoint how acceptance can be utilized to influence emotional concordance.

Léčba posttraumatické stresové poruchy a závislosti na návykových látkách: přehled zahraničních modelů integrované léčby / Integrated Treatment for Co-occuring Posttraumatic Stress Disorder and Substance Use Disorder: Review of International ExperiencesKamenová, Sabina January 2017 (has links)
Introduction: There is a frequent incidence of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) in people with substance use disorder (SUD) and there is also a frequent occurrence of substance use in people with PTSD. Many foreign authors highlight the complications that occur in individuals with this dual diagnosis: higher risk of drop-out from treatment, a higher number of suicide attempts, more serious consequences of substance use, more frequent relapses of both of two diagnoses, etc. The negative impact of this comorbidity on treatment outcomes, highlights the need to focus on improving procedures in the diagnosis of PTSD in people treating from SUD and a need of integrated treatment of both disorders. Many studies also suggest that improving the condition of PTSD increases the likelihood of improvement in substance use. In the Czech Republic, there is a lack of sources that focus on the relationship of these comorbidities and their treatment. Examples of a good practice are also missing. Aims: The aim of this thesis is to introduce the issue of dual diagnosis - PTSD and SUD. The intention of the theoretical part is to present the relationship of these two disorders, with a focus on possible etiology and treatment options. The aim of the practical part is to introduce specific models of integrated...

Trauma and PTSD – An overlooked pathogenic pathway for Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder?Wittchen, Hans-Ulrich, Perkonigg, Axel, Pfister, Hildegard January 2003 (has links)
Background: A recent epidemiological analysis on premenstrual dysphoric disorder (PMDD) in the community revealed increased rates of DSM-IV posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) among women suffering from PMDD. Aims: To explore whether this association is artifactual or might have important pathogenic implications.
Methods: Data come from a prospective, longitudinal community survey of an original sample of N¼1488 women aged 14–24, who were followed-up over a period of 40 to 52 months. Diagnostic assessments are based on the Composite International Diagnostic Interview (CIDI) using the 12-month PMDD diagnostic module. Data were analyzed using logistic regressions (odds ratios) and a case-by-case review.
Results: The age adjusted odds ratio between PTSD and threshold PMDD was 11.7 (3.0–46.2) at baseline. 10 women with full PTSD and at least subthreshold PMDD were identified at follow-up. Most reported an experience of abuse in childhood before the onset of PMDD. Some had experienced a life-threatening experience caused by physical attacks, or had witnessed traumatic events experienced by others. 3 women reported more than one traumatic event.
Conclusions: A case-by-case review and logistic regression analyses suggest that women with traumatic events and PTSD have an increased risk for secondary PMDD. These observations call for more in-depth analyses in future research.
