Abstract:
In the last decade or more there has been increasing interest in the mental health and wellbeing of practising lawyers, both in Australia and internationally. Research reports surveying lawyers’ perceptions of their work life have found an alarming rate of mental health problems such as depression and substance abuse (Kelk, et.al., 2010). One of the potential areas of concern for legal practice and the mental health of lawyers is exposure to potentially traumatic material. The empirical research to date has found that lawyers who report high levels of depression and psychological distress are

Abstract:
Re-experiencing symptoms are a hallmark feature of Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). They are postulated to result from the way in which a trauma memory is encoded, organised and retrieved (e.g. Ehlers, Hackmann, & Michael, 2004). Research has illustrated the effectiveness of exposure therapy (Foa et al., 1991) and Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (NICE, 2005) in the treatment of chronic PTSD, yet evidence for early intervention has been mixed. Reducing the fear response is a central aim in therapies for PTSD. Studies have shown that the fear response can be conditioned in hum

The purpose of this article is to review relevant literature on the effect of mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) and blast injury on the vestibular system. Dizziness and imbalance are common sequelae associated with mTBI, and in some individuals, these symptoms may last for six months or longer. In war-related injuries, mTBI is often associated with blast exposure. The causes of dizziness or imbalance following mTBI and blast injuries have been linked to white matter abnormalities, diffuse axonal injury in the brain, and central and peripheral vestibular system damage.

The development of Parkinson's disease (PD) in humans has been linked to genetic and environmental factors for many years. However, finding common single insults which can produce pathology in humans has proved difficult. Exposure to trichloroethylene (TCE) or traumatic brain injury (TBI) has been shown to be linked to PD and it has also been proposed that multiple insults may be needed for disease development. The present studies show that exposure to TCE prior to a TBI can result in pathology similar to early PD and that the interaction of both insults is required for impairment in behaviora

It has also been linked to the dysregulation of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis, an overactive sympathetic nervous system with elevated cortisol and norepinephrine levels.
