ABSTRACT

Child sexual abuse (CSA) is a frequent phenomenon, and women who report it are at a higher risk of mental disorders and sexual dysfunction. The application of a brief questionnaire could help gynecologists assessment of CSA history in women. This study was carried out including women (n = 593) who had been victims of CSA before the age of 18 years. We used the Early Trauma Inventory Self Report-Short Form (ETISR-SF) Part 4, the Female Sexual Function Index (FSFI), the Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9), the Generalized Anxiety Disorder-7 (GAD-7), the Posttraumatic Stress Disorder Checklist for DSM-5 (PCL-5), and a semi-structured instrument to assess CSA. Among the 593 women included, 77 agreed to answer the questionnaires, 62(80.5%) had traumatic sexual events, 53(68.8%) had a total FSFI score ≤ 26.55, and 64(84.2%) considered themselves victims of CSA. There was an association regarding the belief that CSA influenced their sex life and their being at risk for GAD (p = 0.001), PTSD (p = 0.02), and sexual abuse by a family member (p = 0.01). The risk factors were the presence of risk for GAD (OR = 5.88[1.3-27.03]) and CSA by a family member (OR = 5.78[1.57-21.28]). This methodology can assist gynecologists in assessing a patient's history of CSA.

ABSTRACT

Social anxiety (SA) has as its main feature the fear of social situations, being characterized as social phobia or social anxiety disorder when functional impairment emerges as a result of that fear. Although the recognition of the condition has increased in recent years, it is believed that many patients and physicians still take the symptoms of the disorder for personality traits with no need for treatment. There is evidence that people with SA display abnormal patterns of facial emotion processing that could account for the onset and maintenance of the disorder. The objective of this review is to describe, compare, and discuss the methods used to study facial emotion processing in SA with an emphasis on the tasks and stimuli employed. Articles were searched for on online scientific databases. Forty research articles were selected according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria established. The articles were read and information from them was gathered on a comparative table for analysis. Evidence available to date suggests that SA individuals have abnormal patterns of facial information processing characterized by a bias for negative emotions. The results of the articles analyzed have a high degree of concordance, in spite of the variety of tasks and stimuli employed. The similarity between results from non-clinical samples with SA and patients affected by social phobia speaks in favor of the current view that SA occurs as a continuum of severity, rather than a clearly circumscribed nosological entity.

ABSTRACT

Objetivos: Verificar a confiabilidade da "Entrevista Clínica Estruturada para o DSM-IV - Versäo Clínica (SCID-CV)" traduzida para o português. Métodos: Foram submetidos, a duas entrevistas independentes (teste-reteste), 45 pacientes psiquiátricos em seguimento no Hospital das Clínicas da Faculdade de Medicina de Ribeiräo Preto da Universidade de Säo Paulo (HC-FMRP/USP). Os dados foram analisados pelo Coeficiente Kappa (K). Resultados: O Kappa ponderado foi excelente (Kw=0,83). A confiabilidade foi estatisticamente significante em transtorno do humor (K=0,87); transtornos psicóticos (K=0,90); transtornos relacionados ao uso de substância (K=0,76); transtornos de ansiedade (K=0,61); e nas categorias diagnósticas específicas analisadas, exceto em agorafobia sem história de transtorno do pânico (K=0,04). Conclusões: A SCID-CV traduzida e adaptada para o português apresenta, em geral, boa confiabilidade, mas a ausência de questões e critérios diagnósticos específicos no próprio instrumento em diagnósticos, como agorafobia sem história de transtorno de pânico, diminuiu sua confiabilidade
