Engel's biopsychosocial model is still relevant todayEmail this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
Abstract: In 1977, Engel published the seminal paper, “The Need for a New Medical Model: A Challenge for Biomedicine” [Science 196 (1977) 129–136]. He featured a biopsychosocial (BPS) model based on systems theory and on the hierarchical organization of organisms. In this essay, the model is extended by the introduction of semiotics and constructivism. Semiotics provides the language which allows to describe the relationships between the individual and his environment. Constructivism explains how an organism perceives his environment. The impact of the BPS model on research, medical education, and application in the ...

Influence of sympathetic autonomic arousal on tics: Implications for a therapeutic behavioral intervention for Tourette syndromeEmail this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
Conclusion: These findings indicate that the conjunction of focused attention to task and reduced peripheral sympathetic tone inhibits tic expression and suggests a potential therapeutic role of biofeedback relaxation training for tic management in patients with TS.

Transcranial magnetic stimulation in Gilles de la Tourette syndromeEmail this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
Abstract: The cause of Gilles de la Tourette syndrome (GTS), a chronic motor and vocal tic disorder of childhood onset, remains unknown. Abnormalities in basal ganglia-thalamo-cortical circuits presumably play an important role in the pathophysiology underlying the involuntary tics. The use of transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS), a noninvasive and painless tool to examine the excitability of several different circuits in the human motor cortex has advanced our understanding of the pathophysiology. Motor thresholds are similar in GTS and healthy subjects; in the resting state, recruitment of motor evoked potentials (MEP...

Functional neuroimaging in Tourette syndromeEmail this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
Abstract: Functional neuroimaging of neuropsychiatric disorders is a complex discipline requiring skills in medical science, philosophy, and technical physics. This review first examines the broad categories of functional imaging studies that have been utilized in this area, comparing the strengths and weaknesses of each approach. This review then looks at much of the available literature on functional imaging in Tourette syndrome (TS) and provides a synthesis of data. The review will also examine the different methodologies employed and will suggest which methodologies are most likely to lead to elucidation of the pathoph...

The PANDAS subgroup of tic disorders and childhood-onset obsessive–compulsive disorderEmail this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
Abstract: Diagnosis and treatment of the PANDAS (pediatric autoimmune neuropsychiatric disorders associated with streptococcal infections) variant of Gilles de la Tourette syndrome (GTS) and childhood-onset obsessive–compulsive disorder (OCD) are still controversial issues. Most cross-sectional studies confirm a significant association between GTS and the development of an immune response against group A β-hemolytic streptococcus (GABHS). Moreover, longitudinal retrospective studies suggest that a recent exposure to GABHS might be a risk factor for the onset of tics and obsessive–compulsive symptoms. However, further ...

Tourette syndrome in children and adolescents: Special considerationsEmail this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
Abstract: Tourette syndrome (TS) affects people of all ages, with onset in early childhood and continuing through the different stages of the life cycle into adolescence and adults. This review focuses on barriers to diagnosis and challenges in the management of young patients with TS. Barriers to identification occur at multiple levels, including detection in the community setting (including schools), parents' help-seeking behavior, and cultural influences on such behavior, as well as diagnosis by the medical provider. Challenges to management include unfamiliarity of primary care providers, inconsistencies in the diagnos...

Tourette syndrome and comorbid early-onset schizophreniaEmail this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
Conclusions: The 2.5% prevalence of schizophrenia in our TS sample exceeds the 1% expected rate of schizophrenia in the general population (chi-square=9.14; P=.0025). The six cases of COS (before 13 years of age) exceeds the expected rate of 1–2 per 100,000 (chi-square=4499; P=.0001). The 752-fold increase in observed rates of comorbid TS and COS over expected rates suggests a role for unknown common underlying etiologic factors. Based on clinical features, patients with TS and comorbid COS, AdolOS, or AduOS do not have different conditions. We conclude with suggestions for further research.

Neuropsychological aspects of Tourette syndrome: A reviewEmail this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
Abstract: Tourette syndrome (TS) is assumed to result from frontostriatal dysfunction, which would be expected to result in impairments in neuropsychological functions. This possibility has been explored in a number of studies that have assessed the performance of patients with TS within major cognitive domains and on tests involving executive functioning. We aim to summarize the main findings of these studies while evaluating the influence of task limitations and potentially critical confounding factors such as the presence of comorbidity. Although there is clearly a need for improved study design, we tentatively suggest ...

Conclusion: Although tics are the sine qua non of TS, they are often not the most enduring or impairing symptoms in children with TS. Measures used to enhance self-esteem, such as encouraging strong friendships and the exploration of interests, are crucial to ensuring positive adulthood outcome in TS.

Clinical phenomenology and phenotype variability in Tourette syndromeEmail this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
Abstract: Tourette syndrome (TS) is a neurodevelopmental disorder with a rich phenomenology that includes simple and complex motor and vocal tics as well as multiple comorbidities. From a nosological perspective, it is evident that a continuum of tic severity exists, of which TS is the most severe and rare form, while transient tics and chronic tics represent milder forms. From a psychopathology perspective, TS is often concurrent with obsessive–compulsive disorder (OCD) and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD); these disorders appear to define TS “types” TS only, TS+OCD, and TS+OCD+ADHD. Additional clinic...

The many faces of Gilles de la Tourette syndromeEmail this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
Gilles de la Tourette syndrome (GTS) has come a long way since 1980 when the senior author began her ‘Tourette career.’ In the early days, case reports on the clinical phenomenology were being published, substantial cohorts were very rare, and the main treatment was haloperidol. Most of the publication originated from the USA. The only book published on GTS was that by Arthur Shapiro et al. in 1978. The then ‘high-powered’ investigations included EEGs, brain CT scans, and blood tests. Few clinicians understood the cause(s) and even fewer the prevalence and epidemiology. One has only to remember ploughing through In...

Can transcultural psychiatry help us to understand the predicament of C-L psychiatry?Email this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
Transcultural psychiatry is mainly devoted to two complementary objectives. The first, theoretical and epistemological, is to differentiate in psychopathology what is universal and what is influenced by, or even peculiar to each culture. The second, pragmatic and operational, is to pay more attention to factors of vulnerability and pathological manifestations of minority ethnic groups or patients of foreign origin.

The relationship between history of overdose and medically self-sabotaging behaviorsEmail this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
Few studies have examined relationships between potentially lethal behaviors, such as suicide attempts, and accompanying nonsuicidal self-destructive behaviors. As examples, Shah and Ganesvaran examined 60 completed suicides and found a significant association with a past history of “deliberate self-harm.” Safer reviewed the literature relating to adolescent populations and concluded that there was no convincing overlap between suicide attempts and “deliberate self-harm.” In a study of 107 psychiatric inpatients, we confirmed a relationship between a history of suicide attempts and a number of low-lethal self-harm ...

In the current issue of the Journal of Psychosomatic Research, three articles originating from the United Kingdom, Japan, and Spain all speak the same language—and I am not referring to English. Their words call attention to mind–body unity using different methodologies and various clinical and psychosocial measures with two distinct conditions: rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and fibromyalgia (FM). Implicitly, they remind us to consider the whole person rather than particular body parts (e.g., joints) or systems (e.g., immune). They ask us to incorporate patients' perspectives, including what is “on their minds” such as...

Imaging evidence for anatomical disturbances and neuroplastic compensation in persons with Tourette syndromeEmail this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
Conclusion: Although existing studies differ with respect to sample size, gender composition, quality of clinical characterization, pulse sequences, and methods of image analysis, the preponderance of evidence suggests that disturbances in the development of the motor portions of cortical–subcortical circuits likely predispose to the development TS and that neuroplastic changes in control systems of the brain help to modulate the severity of symptom expression. These findings from cross-sectional studies require confirmation in more representative populations within longitudinal studies. (Source: Journal of Psychosomatic Research)

Neurosurgical treatment for Gilles de la Tourette syndrome: The Italian perspectiveEmail this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
Abstract: Despite the availability of both pharmacological and behavioral therapies for Gilles de la Tourette Syndrome (GTS), a subgroup of patients suffer intractable disease and require treatment through non-conservative means. Since 1955, various neurosurgical procedures have been considered as a potential resort for this severely affected sub-group; this article reviews the neurosurgical treatment for GTS, with in-depth discussion on deep brain stimulation (DBS). Internationally, 39 cases of GTS undergoing DBS treatment have been published. Yet, despite the small numbers of patients assessed in centers involved and the...

The genetics of Tourette syndrome: A reviewEmail this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
Conclusion: The genetics of GTS are complex and not well understood. The Genome Wide Association Study (GWAS) design can hopefully overcome the limitations of linkage and candidate gene studies. However, large-scale collaborations are needed to provide enough power to utilize the GWAS design for discovery of causative mutations. Knowledge of susceptibility mutations and biological pathways involved should eventually lead to new treatment paradigms for GTS. (Source: Journal of Psychosomatic Research)

Abstract: Virtually no neurologist nor psychiatrist today can be unaware of the diagnosis of Gilles de la Tourette syndrome (GTS). Although the eponymous description by Dr. Georges Gilles de la Tourette was published in 1885, familiarity with this syndrome has been achieved only recently. In this article, the two most renown accounts of exceptional individuals retrospectively diagnosed with GTS are critically analyzed: British lexicographer Samuel Johnson and Austrian musician Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. In both cases, clinical descriptions have been retrieved from written documents predating Gilles de la Tourette's original ...
