Responses of 108 women in the first 5 months of pregnancy were compared to those given by expectant fathers, nonpregnant women, and nonexpectant men on two measures: a 55-item symptom checklist and the Beck Depression Inventory. Responses to the symptom checklist were factor analyzed to produce six factors accounting for 40.5% of the total variance. On only two of the six factors was there a significant tendency for the pregnant women to score higher than the other three groups: the factors labeled "Feeling ill" and "Feeling overweight." No significant impact of pregnancy was noted on the Beck Depression Inventory scores. It was concluded that a small group of reported physical symptoms but no common core of emotional symptoms characterizes the experience of early pregnancy.

Background: Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is a complex neurodevelopmental condition emerging in early childhood, characterized by core features such as sociocommunicative deficits and repetitive, rigid behaviors, interests, and activities. In addition to these, disruptive behaviors (DB), including aggression, self-injury, and severe tantrums, are frequently observed in pediatric patients with ASD. The atypical antipsychotics risperidone and aripiprazole, currently the only Food and Drug Administration-approved treatments for severe DB in patients with ASD, often encounter therapeutic failure or intolerance.

Department of Psychiatry, University of Arkansas Medical Sciences, Little Rock, Arkansas, US.
Purpose: Trauma disorders are prevalent and confer high rates of psychiatric comorbidity and functional impairment. Women are more likely to be affected by trauma disorders; however, rates and symptom burden in women's inpatient psychiatric units remains understudied. We hypothesized the prevalence of probable posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) would be higher among women admitted to a women's inpatient unit compared to women in the general population and mixed gender units.
