    Forensic aspect of the frontal lobe syndrome: a case report
    (Cumhuriyet Univ Tip Fak Psikiyatri Anabilim Dali, 2011) Kartalci, Sukru; Unal, Suheyla; Ozdemir, Serdal
    In this case report, it is discussed a patient with frontal lobe syndrome (FLS) who was subjected to forensic and psychiatric observation. A 39 year-old woman have presented severe disabilities in daily life activities after traumatic brain injury. She showed slowness, reduction of emotion and apathy at her clinical evaluation. Despite the notably impairment in social behavior, she was unaware of this situation. Computerized tomography of head was conducted atrophy of frontal lobe. It was diagnosed as a FLS. FLS consists of two distinct clinical syndromes. The orbitofrontal syndrome is the most well known and consists of major antisocial behavior. Apathetic states lie at the other end of the syndrome. Psychiatry generally focuses to orbitofrontal syndrome in criminal behaviour. However in this case, it is discussed a patient with apathetic FLS in terms of forensic psychiatry.

    Oxytocin and Vasopressin Blood Levels in People with Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder
    (Aves, 2023) Zayman, Esra Porgali; Karabulut, Aysun Bay; Ozdemir, Serdal; Kartalci, Sukru
    Background: The neuroendocrine system and the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis are among the possible neurobiological factors that may be involved in the emergence and persistence of post-traumatic stress disorder. Here, we determined the levels of vaso-pressin and oxytocin in the peripheral blood of people with post-traumatic stress disorder, investigating their correlation with post-traumatic stress disorder symptoms. Methods: The study included patients with post-traumatic stress disorder according to the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders Version 4 and healthy controls. People who accepted to participate in the study, who did not have any additional diseases, who had the ability to understand the questionnaires, and who did not use medications during the 3 months preceding the study onset were enrolled. The levels of vasopressin and oxytocin were measured using the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Results:Twenty-eight subjects with post-traumatic stress disorder and 19 healthy controls were included. The 2 groups were not significantly different in terms of oxytocin blood levels (P = .481). However, subjects with post-traumatic stress disorder had a significantly lower vasopressin level than controls (P < .001). We found no significant correlations of trauma duration and scale scores with oxytocin or vasopressin levels. Conclusion: The findings of this study show that blood vasopressin may play a role in post-traumatic stress disorder. Prospective studies based on a larger number of partici-pants are warranted to clarify how neuromodulators may affect the pathogenesis of post -traumatic stress disorder.

    Pituitary volume in patients with panic disorder
    (Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2011) Kartalci, Sukru; Dogan, Metin; Unal, Suheyla; Ozcan, A. Cemal; Ozdemir, Serdal; Atmaca, Murad
    Panic patients have many functional deficiencies in the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis. Previous studies have shown changed pituitary gland volume in some psychiatric disorders that have functional deficiencies in the HPA axis: However, to date no study has evaluated the pituitary gland volume in patients with panic disorder (PD). We investigated the pituitary gland volume in patients with PD (n = 27) and age- and sex-matched healthy controls (n = 27), using 1.5-T magnetic resonance imaging in this study. Analysis showed that patients with PD had significantly smaller pituitary volume compared to healthy subjects. Patients with agoraphobia especially had a significantly smaller pituitary volume than patients without agoraphobia. There was a significant relationship between the pituitary volume and both the severity of symptoms and the illness duration in the patient group. The results show that patients with PD have reduced pituitary volume, which may reflect the functional abnormalities seen in this disorder. These findings may help us better understand the pathology of PD. (C) 2010 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.

    THE SOCIAL NETWORK HIERARCHY IN YOUNG ADULTHOOD: A RESEARCH TROUGH UNIVERSITY STUDENTS SAMPLES IN MALATYA, TURKEY WITHIN THE CONTEXT OF SOCIAL ATOM THEORY
    (Istanbul Univ, Methodology & Sociology Research Center, 2014) Kaya, Yasar; Unal, Suheyla; Ozdemir, Serdal; Erenkus, Zehra
    This study, carried out in Malatya province among 296 student samples aged between 20- 24, aims to reveal the effects of psychological and cultural factors on attachment hierarchy in young adulthood. The persons placed closest to the Me nucleus are the mother (76.4%), father (43.6%), sibling (36.5%) and friend (20.9%) respectively. Among those with a romantic partner, 31.9% place the romantic partner in the first circle. The avoidance levels of young females are statistically significantly higher than young males (chi(2) = 21.083 p=0.000). A separated family during childhood statistically significantly increase the attachment anxiety level (chi(2) = 10.078 p=0.002). The circle value the romantic partner is placed in and the numbers of friends in the social atom are significantly smaller in subjects with a high avoidance level. Increased attachment avoidance levels result in decreased number of persons in the first circle, thus, reducing significantly both placing friends in the first circle and having a romantic partner. The Social Atom Volume and avoidance of attachment, as our study demonstrate, are factors that influence having a romantic partner.
