Abstract:
IntroductionAttention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is among the most common mental disorders in children and adolescents, and it is a strong risk factor for several adverse psychosocial outcomes over the lifespan. There are large between-country and within-country variations in diagnosis and medication rates. Due to ethical and practical considerations, a few studies have examined the effects of receiving a diagnosis, and there is a lack of research on effects of medication on long-term outcomes.Our project has four aims organised in four work packages: (WP1) To examine the prognosis

Abstract:
Background: Antipsychotics had been shown to cause erectile dysfunction (ED). This study aims to determine the rate and degree of ED in Chinese males who had chronic schizophrenia and were taking antipsychotic agents for at least four weeks in an outpatient psychiatric clinic in Hong Kong. Method: Seventy Chinese males with chronic schizophrenia attending the clinic were surveyed on the five aspects of erectile function using the International Index of Erectile Function Scale (IIEF-15). Their attitude on receiving treatment for any ED was also elicited using a standard attitude questionnaire.

Abstract:
The sparse literature on Posttraumatic Stress Disorder among older combat veterans has not explored individual personality styles. 120 older combat veterans who were treatment-seeking in medical and psychiatric outpatient clinics, were assessed whether two personality styles (identified in other research as potentially reflective of PTSD) added to the problems of PTSD beyond the information associated with the stressors of combat and aging. Analyses indicated that the personality style, Sensitivity, was significantly related to PTSD beyond these other factors.

Abstract:
In the past few decades, opioid use for the treatment of chronic noncancer pain has slowly gained acceptance. With this increase in prescription opioid use, there has also been an increase in prescription opioid abuse. To help detect aberrant drug related behaviors, clinicians have utilized urine drug screens to determine patient noncompliance in outpatient pain clinics. The primary objective is to determine how the use of urine drug testing (UDT) affects health care outcomes. The secondary outcome is to evaluate these findings as it relates to pharmacoeconomics and aberrant behaviors in an ou
