AI Article Synopsis
- Borderline personality disorder (BPD) is a complex medical issue that is gaining more attention among adolescents, but there is still a lack of comprehensive data on it.
- * The causes and ongoing factors of BPD remain unclear, although neuropeptides like oxytocin and vasopressin may play a role in its development.
- * The goal of the research is to gather and evaluate existing studies and ideas about how these neurohormones affect adolescents with borderline personality disorder.*
Article Abstract
Borderline personality disorder constitutes a significant medical challenge. Despite the fact that its occurrence among adolescents is currently attracting increasing interest from both clinicians and researchers, there is still insufficient data on this phenomenon. The etiology and maintenance of borderline personality disorder are not yet fully comprehended. Neuropeptides, including oxytocin and vasopressin, are considered to be involved in the development of this condition. The mechanism behind the actions of these neurohormones requires further investigation. Our work aims to collect and analyze the available research and existing hypotheses on the role of oxytocin and vasopressin in people with borderline personality disorder, with special attention drawn to adolescents suffering from this condition.

Background: Bulimia nervosa (BN) is a serious mental illness with impulsivity as a cardinal symptom. Impulsivity contributes to various other, often comorbid, mental disorders, such as attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and borderline personality disorder (BPD). The aim of this study was to explore comorbidities of BN with ADHD and BPD as well as the contribution of impulsivity as an underlying trait linking these disorders.

Borderline personality disorder (BPD) is a complex psychiatric condition characterized by pervasive patterns of instability in emotions, interpersonal relationships, and self-image. This comprehensive review explores the current diagnostic practices, treatment modalities, and ongoing controversies surrounding BPD. We discuss established and proposed diagnostic criteria, highlight the limitations of current assessment tools, and examine the epidemiology of the disorder, including its prevalence and comorbidities.

Background: Dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT) and repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) are both effective in treating borderline personality disorder (BPD). Impulsivity and impaired decision-making are prominent features of BPD, and therapeutic interventions targeting these symptoms could lead to significant improvements.
Objective/hypothesis: We hypothesized that intermittent theta burst stimulation (iTBS), a modified rTMS protocol that targets the left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex, would enhance the therapeutic effects of DBT, leading to greater improvements in impulsivity and decision-making compared with sham stimulation.
Introduction The construct of epistemic trust (ET) has gained wide acceptance and support in the field, although there is little empirical evidence to substantiate the theoretical assumed model. Studies of the assessment of ET were conducted in community samples only and the mediating role of attachment and mentalizing in addition to ET was not investigated. This study examines the theoretical assumed relationships between ET and attachment and mentalizing as well as the mediating role of attachment, mentalizing and ET in the association between childhood adversity and borderline personality disorder (BPD) in a heterogeneous sample containing also patients.
