Complex posttraumatic stress disorder: The need to consolidate a distinct clinical syndrome or to reevaluate features of psychiatric disorders following interpersonal trauma?

Complex posttraumatic stress disorder (Complex PTSD) has been recently proposed as a distinct clinical entity in the WHO International Classification of Diseases, 11 version, due to be published, two decades after its first initiation. It is described as an enhanced version of the current definition of PTSD, with clinical features of PTSD plus three additional clusters of symptoms namely emotional dysregulation, negative self-cognitions and interpersonal hardship, thus resembling the clinical features commonly encountered in borderline personality disorder (BPD). Complex PTSD is related to complex trauma which is defined by its threatening and entrapping context, generally interpersonal in nature.

Ni(II)20 "Bowls" from the Use of Tridentate Schiff Bases.

The reactions of N-salicylidene-o-aminophenol or its derivatives and excess of nickel(II) acetate in alcohols have led to Ni(II)20 clusters with an unprecedented "bowl" metal topology.

Structural and magnetic variations in tetranuclear Ni(II) clusters: the effect of the reaction solvent and ligand substitution on product identity.

Three structurally and magnetically different tetranuclear Ni(II) complexes have been isolated and magnetically characterized, emphasizing the effect of the reaction solvent and organic ligand substitution on the chemical identity of cluster compounds.

Mononuclear anionic octahedral cobalt(III) complexes based on N-salicylidene-o-aminophenol and its derivatives: synthetic, structural and spectroscopic studies.

The reactions of Co(II) sources with N-salicylidene-o-aminophenol (H2saph), N-salicylidene-o-amino-4-methylphenol (H2saph-4Me) and N-salicylidene-o-amino-4-chlorophenol (H2saph-4Cl) were studied in MeOH. The new solid complexes (Bu4(n)N)[Co(III)(saph)2] (1), (Et3NH)[Co(III)(saph-4Me)2]⋅MeOH⋅MeCO2H (2⋅MeOH⋅MeCO2H) and (Et3NH)[Co(III)(saph-4Cl)2]⋅MeOH⋅MeCO2H (3⋅MeOH⋅MeCO2H) have been isolated and their structures determined by single-crystal, X-ray crystallography. The three compounds contain the mononuclear, low- spin octahedral anion [Co(III)L2](-) (H2L=H2saph, H2saph-4Me, H2saph-4Cl), in which both L(2)(-) ligands act as tridentate chelating, meridional ONO donors.

Report of two cases of endobronchial metastases secondary to colorectal cancer.

Two cases of endoluminar/endobronchial metastases (EEM) from a secondary extrathoracic tumour are reported. The patients, eight years after the curative treatment of colorectal adenocarcinoma, were examined exhibiting pulmonary symptoms with radiological findings in the chest and endobronchial lesions as an initial presentation. The use of fiberoptic bronchoscopy of endoluminar/endobronchial lesions may help in diagnosing the origin of metastatic spread in the presence or absence of a primary tumour.
