Abstract:

Psychogenic nonepileptic seizures (PNES) can stop after the communication of the diagnosis by a healthcare professional, or PNES disorders can become more entrenched and patients are less able to control their seizures. This chapter addresses strategies for the explanation of the diagnosis of PNES, compares their effectiveness, and offers recommendations for delivering the diagnosis. A “positive” diagnostic label (such as “dissociative attacks”) may have advantages over a “negative” label (stating what the problem is not). Explaining PNES as a reflex response to potentially threatening triggers may be acceptable to PNES patients, who tend to experience PNES as a “physical” problem, while providing a rationale for psychological treatment interventions. However, PNES are a heterogeneous disorder and explanations have to be adapted to fit particular patients’ circumstances. How the diagnosis is communicated may be more important than what words are used for the disorder. Additional resources such as leaflets or websites may help patients understand their problem better. The explanation to patients should be followed by clear communication of the diagnosis to other health professionals involved in the patient’s care.

Abstract:

Stroke in the young is different, complex, and challenging. This book delivers a comprehensive review of the different aspects of young ischaemic stroke. Incidence, risk factors, and aetiology differ notably from those seen in the elderly. There is an increased prevalence of traditional risk factors already at a young age, but the book also focuses on special risk factors in young stroke patients. In many young stroke patients, aetiology remains unclear. The book outlines an extensive diagnostic workup and a stroke subtype classification adapted for young strokes. Gender differences are prevalent in young stroke. The book describes risk factors that are either unique or more prevalent in women and the importance of treating them aggressively. Stroke symptoms in children are comparable to those in adults, but there is a dramatic bystander delay in diagnosing the stroke. The text therefore also deals with rapid stroke recognition and adaption to the special needs in children. Young stroke patients are under-represented in randomized controlled treatment trials. In the emergency setting, unusual clinical findings and off-label situations may be faced and the decision-making process may be challenging. Recommendations for secondary prevention are also mainly extrapolated from studies in older individuals. The authors extrapolate data and draw conclusions on the acute and prophylactic treatment of young stroke. Prognosis after young stroke is poor. Even minor stroke may have devastating life-long consequences for quality of life, education, and working capacity. The book points to the opportunity for lifelong prevention of vascular events.

Abstract:

Cognitive impairment is common following stroke. The clinical course and presentation are variable in vascular dementia, but the diagnosis can often be tied to recent vascular events or to progressive white matter lesions on MRI. Because there is considerable overlap between patients with vascular and Alzheimer’s type dementia, both acetylcholinesterase inhibitors and memantine have been tried off-label to treat the cognitive symptoms of vascular dementia with mixed results.

Abstract:

There are people where two or more personalities seem to have independent-and sometimes mutually forgetful-control of the same bodily individual. This chapter gives a brief account of the history of the diagnosis of "Multiple Personality Disorder" or (the more recent label) "Dissociative Identity Disorder", and the conflicting judgment of therapists, lawyers, and philosophers as to whether this is a real syndrome. It is suggested that the diagnosis may be therapeutically helpful for some other disturbances, including anorexia, even if it does not carry the strong metaphysical moral that some have supposed. The cases are of interest to philosophers as they purport to represent "real -life" difficulties for standard theories of "personal identity." The chapter argues that the diagnosis (and its rejection) depend on prior assumptions about such identity, and so don't easily confirm or rebut any available theory, including more ancient theories about demonic possession.

Abstract:

Making a diagnosis in dermatology may seem daunting when there are 6 000 or more possibilities, and the terminology seems so complex. This chapter suggests a systematic approach to picking up clues from symptoms and signs, and understanding how to describe skin disease; this approach, together with experience (obtained through seeing patients, asking more experienced colleagues, and reading) will help with pattern recognition and, sometimes, lead to the answer. The skin has such a wide range of structural and functional varieties that disorders of the skin are not only common but also very variable. However, it is important to be able to give a patient a diagnosis. This ‘working label’ means that the patient fits into a known group not only in their typical presentation but also as a guide for response to treatment, prognosis, and, sometimes, for explanation of etiology and whether genetic or infective factors are important; that is, it is helpful in explaining the disease to the patient. Despite the complexity of the skin, making a diagnosis in dermatology is no different from making a diagnosis in other areas; it is based on taking a history, examining the patient, and performing investigations, if indicated.

Abstract:

Rates of diagnosis of attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) are skyrocketing, throughout America and the rest of the world. U.S. rates of youth diagnosis have increased 40% from just a decade ago. Adults with ADHD are now the fastest-growing segment of the population receiving diagnosis and medication. The disorder is painful and sometimes disabling for individuals and tremendously costly for society; yet, widespread misinformation, skepticism, and unanswered questions have jeopardized effective diagnosis and treatment. Researched and written by Stephen Hinshaw, an international expert on ADHD, and Katherine Ellison, a Pulitzer-Prize winning journalist and author, ADHD: What Everyone Needs to Know is the go-to book for authoritative, current, accurate, and compelling information about the global ADHD epidemic. This book addresses questions such as: • Is ADHD a genuine medical condition or a means of pathologizing active and exploratory behavior? • Do medications for ADHD serve as needed treatments, or are they attempts at social control, designed to bolster profits of pharmaceutical firms? • Has the ADHD label become a ruse by which parents can game the educational system for accommodations? • How do symptoms and impairments related to ADHD differ between girls and women and boys and men? • Why are ADHD medications often used as performance enhancers by college and high-school students? ADHD: What Everyone Needs to Know® clears the air of the most polarizing and misleading information that abounds, providing straight talk and sound guidelines for educators, policymakers, health professionals, parents, and the general public. It shows the reality of ADHD but does not ignore the forces that have pushed up rates of diagnosis to alarmingly high levels.

Abstract:

Influential guidelines on rheumatoid arthritis (RA) management agree on most key recommendations. Early diagnosis of persistent synovitis, and identification of poor prognostic markers, is essential. Rapid intervention is vital with drugs to suppress inflammation, slow down damaging disease components, and prevent disability. The label of RA covers a broad spectrum of disease severity, and there is controversy on: • whether the same interventions are needed for all patients • whether monotherapy or combination treatment is appropriate • the role of steroids in RA • the appropriate introduction of biological therapies. Treating to specified targets is optimal evidence-based practice, where patients are reviewed regularly for disease activity assessments, and inadequate control rectified. Aiming for remission is the ultimate goal, though for some patients minimal disease activity may be appropriate. Patient education addressing self-management is important, and the multidisciplinary team (MDT: specialist nurses, physiotherapists, occupational therapists, podiatrists, psychologists) needs to be involved from the start to minimize the impact on quality of life of the patient. For established disease, rapid access is important for flares, and to consider whether disease management could be improved. An intermittent overview of established disease is important with access to the MDT, and assessments for comorbidities such as ischaemic heart disease, osteoporosis, and depression, as well as complications of the disease itself such as cervical spine disease, vasculitis, and lung and eye complications. An informed patient needs to be central to all decision making.

Abstract:

The application of nuclear medicine techniques in the diagnosis and management of rheumatological conditions relies on its ability to detect physiological and pathological changes in vivo, usually at an earlier stage compared to structural changes visualized on conventional imaging. These techniques are based on the in-vivo administration of a gamma-emitting radionuclide whose distribution can be monitored externally using a gamma camera. To guide a radionuclide to the area of interest, it is usually bound to a chemical label to form a 'radiopharmaceutical'. There are hundreds of radiopharmaceuticals in clinical use with different 'homing' mechanisms, such as 99 mTc HDP for bone scan and 99 mTc MAA for lung scan. Comparing pre- and posttherapy scans can aid in monitoring response to treatment. More recently, positron emission tomography combined with simultaneous computed tomography (PET/CT) has been introduced into clinical practice. This technique provides superb spatial resolution and anatomical localization compared to gamma-camera imaging. The most widely used PET radiopharmaceutical, flurodeoxyglucose (18F-FDG), is a fluorinated glucose analogue, which can detect hypermetabolism and has therefore been used in imaging and monitoring response to treatment of a variety of cancers as well as inflammatory conditions such as vasculitis, myopathy, and arthritides. Other PET radiopharmaceuticals targeting inflammation and activated macrophages are becoming available and could open new frontiers in PET imaging in rheumatology. Nuclear medicine procedures can also be used therapeutically. Beta-emitting radiopharmaceuticals, such as yttrium-90, invoke localized tissue damage at the site of injection and can be used in the treatment of synovitis.
