연구목적: 종합병원에서 정신과에 자문 의뢰된 입원 환자 및 그 자문의뢰의 특성을 살펴보고 이를 통해 정신과 치료의 순응도에 관련된 요인을 찾아보고자 하였다. 방 법: 2009년 9월 1일부터 2010년 8월 31일까지 고려대학교 안산병원에서 정신과에 자문 의뢰된 입원환자 333명을 대상으로 자문기록지와 의무기록을 참고하여 연구를 진행하였다. 기본적인 인구 역학적 정보, 자문을 의뢰한 임상 각과, 의뢰 요청자, 의뢰된 사유, 정신과적 진단과 과거력, 입원 중 정신과 치료의 시행 여부 및 추후 통원 치료의 여부 등을 조사하였다. 이들 중 정신과 치료의 시행 여부 및 통원 치료의 여부를 치료순응도로 정하였다. 순응도와 기타 변수간의 이분형로지스틱 회귀분석을 시행하여 순응도에 영향을 미치는 요인을 확인하였다. 결 과: 입원 중 정신과 치료를 권유 받은 310명의 환자들 중, 치료에 순응한 환자는 82.9%이었으며, 외래 통원치료를 권유 받은 111명의 환자들 중에는 통원치료에 순응한 환자가 55.8%이었다. 64세 이하 연령층보다 65세 이상의 노인에서 입원 중 치료에 대한 순응도가 높았다(OR=4.838, p=0.004). 외래 통원치료를 권유받은 환자들 중 내과적 질환으로 인해 이차적인 정신과적 증상이 나타난 경우가 외래 순응도가 더 높았다(OR=8.520, p=0.008). 결 론: 노인 환자는 입원중 정신과 치료에 대해서는 순응도가 높았으나 신체 질환의경과에 영향을 미치는 섬망 및 기분장애가 흔하므로 정신과적 증상에 대한 평가와 치료가 보다 적극적으로 이루어져야 할 것이다. 또한, 내외과적 질환과 관련이 없는 정신과 문제로 자문 의뢰된 환자들은 외래 통원치료 순응도가 낮으므로 치료순응도를 높이기 위해 다방면의 치료적 접근 방법을 모색하여야 할 것으로 판단된다.

This study sought to determine wether the reliability of the KIP-C is affected by mothers' scores on of MMPI. Particiapants in this study were 100 mothers whose children visited the a children's psychiatric hospital. They were sorted into two groups; diagnosis consistent group and diagnosis inconsistent groups. the diagnosis inconsistent group showed significantly higher scores on L(p<.001) and K(p<.001) scales, while the diagnosis consistent group had higher scores on F, Ma and Si scales. When comparing the KPI-C of the groups, the diagnosis consistent groups showed significantly higher scores in ANX, SOM and HPR scales(p<.05). A correlation analysis of the validity scales of MMPI and the scales of KPI-C also showed significant correlation. It was also shown that the characteristics of the mothers' personality have important effects on their perception of their children's problems. In particular, the stronger the mothers defensive characteristics, the lower the reliability of their perception of their children's problems. Reciprocally, reliability was higher when the mothers acknowledged their problems.

본 연구는 삼성의료원 소아정신과 학습장애 특수 클리닉에 내원한 학습부진 아동을 대상으로 학습부진의 원인이 되는 장애와 학습부진 아동에서 학습장애의 유병율을 알아보고자 하였다 이들은 $6{\sim}15$세 사이의 197명으로 구성되었으며 결과는 아래와 같았다. 1) 대상군중 우울증등의 정서장애가 33%로 가장 많았으며 주의력결핍 과잉황동장애가 31%로 두번째의 빈도를 나타내었다. 2) 대상군중 학습장애 환아는 41명으로 20.8%의 빈도율을 보였다. 3) 학습장애의 공존병리중 주의력결핍 과잉활동장애가 44%로 가장 높은 빈도를 나타내었다. 4) 주의력결핍 과잉활동장애가 공존하는 학습장애군과 학습장애만 있는 군에서는 성별이나 연령차이, 지능차이는 없었으며 뇌파의 이상 소견에 대해서도 차이가 없었다. 그러나 주의력결핍 과잉활동장애가 없는 단독 학습장애군은 주의력결핍 과잉활동장애가 공존하는 학습장애군보다 더 늦은 나이에 발병하였고 학업성취도 면에서 우수하였는데 특히 국어, 수학, 사회, 음악 과목에서 격차가 컸다.

Fibromyalgia is a syndrome characterized by chronic pain in the skeletal system accompanied by stiffness, sleep disturbance, fatigue, and psychiatric problems, such as anxiety and depression. Fibromyalgia commonly affects orofacial health, presenting with a variety of oral manifestations, including temporomandibular disorder, xerostomia, glossodynia, and dysgeusia. Therefore, oral healthcare providers need to be aware of this clinical entity to effectively manage oral symptoms and provide proper oral self-care modification and education on the nature of fibromyalgia. This review focuses on the epidemiology, pathophysiology, clinical manifestation, diagnosis, orofacial concerns, and treatment of fibromyalgia.

Objective : This study examined benzodiazepine prescription patterns of outpatients visiting the psychiatry department in a single general hospital in Korea. Methods : A retrospective descriptive analysis of benzodiazepine prescriptions was performed on a database from 2014 in a general hospital in Korea. We analyzed the following factors of adult outpatients: demographic factors such as sex and age, amount of benzodiazepine prescribed, treatment duration, and diagnosis based on the ICD-10. Results : In 2014, benzodiazepines were prescribed to 46.4% of the outpatients. Percentage of benzodiazepine prescription increased with age and was highest in the age group 40-59 years. Prescription was more prevalent in women and the prescription percentage increased by treatment duration. Patients with the F4 diagnosis (neurotic, stress-related and somatoform disorders) were the most highly prescribed group. For all diagnosis groups, prescription was more prevalent in females or similar for both sexes except for patients with F5 diagnosis (behavioral syndromes associated with physiological disturbances and physical factors), with males being more predominant. Conclusion : Despite the concern regarding the rate of benzodiazepine prescription and administration to geriatric patients, long-term prescription and usage among older patients is still prevalent.

There is considerable overlap in the clinical presentations of apathy and depression. However, differential diagnosis between apathy and other psychiatric conditions, including depression and dementia, is important. In this report, we present the case of a 67-year-old woman with a history of receiving selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) treatment for depression. Differential diagnosis between treatment-resistant depression and SSRI-induced apathy syndrome was required. The symptoms of her apathy syndrome were relieved after the discontinuation of SSRIs and the addition of olanzapine, methylphenidate, and modafinil. Furthermore, we briefly review related literature in this article.

1987년 1월 1일부터 1988년 8월 30일까지 서울대학 소아병원 임상 각과에 입원중 소아정신과에 자문이 의뢰되었던 환아를 대상으로 이들에 대한 임상적 특성 및 현 자문활동에 대해 살펴본바 1) 자문의뢰 환아의 평균연령은 10.9세로 국민학생이(57.6%) 가장 많았고 남녀 비는 1.4:1로 남아가 많았고 2) 자문의뢰된 임상각과 분포는 소아과(77.2%) 신경외과(8.9%), 정형외과(4.O%) 순이었고 3) 전체 입원환자에 대한 자문율은 0.81%였으며 소아과(1.4%), 신경외과(3.5%), 기타 임상각과는 0.3% 수준이었으며 1예의 자문도 없었던 과도 상당수 있었고 4) 정신과적 진단분포는 신체화장애(25.O%), 기질성뇌증후군(18.5%) 발달장애(14.1%), 행동장애(6.5%), 불안장애(6.5%) 순이었으며 의뢰 목적은 정신과적 치료보다는 진단적 평가의뢰가 많았고 5) 타과의사의 자문조치 및 진단에 대한 반영도는 본 병원 성인연구와 큰 차이는 없었다. 이상을 종합하여 볼 때 자문활동에 대한 소아정신과 내의 보다 큰 관심이 요하며 타과의사에 대한 정신과적 교육, 타과의사와의 공동연구 및 환자에 대한 상호이해, 성의있는 추적치료 둥의 보다 발전적 방안이 모색되어져야 하겠다.

Purpose: This study was conducted to analyze the features of poisoning in individuals aged 0-18 years to understand the characteristics of potential victims and eventually prevent poisoning. Methods: We retrospectively analyzed poisoned children and adolescents (0-18 years) who visited the emergency department of one tertiary hospital from January 2003 through December 2013. We collected data including their age, sex, reason for poisoning, components and dose of poison, results of treatment, and psychiatric diagnosis. Results: During the study period, there were 436 cases of poisoning (male 47.2% (n=206); female 52.8% (n=230)). Subjects were classified into four groups (0-1 years, 2-5 years, 6-12 years, 13-18 years). The most common cause of poisoning in all age groups was accidental poisoning (72.9%), but intentional poisoning increased as age increased (p<0.001). Moreover, females were more often subject to intentional poisoning than males (p<0.001). The most common poisoning material was drugs (41.7%). Among intentional poisoning patients, 62.7% patients had consulted a psychiatrist, and their most common diagnosis was adjustment disorder (44.6%). Conclusion: The most common cause of poisoning in individuals aged 0-18 years was accidental poisoning, while intentional poisoning was most common among adolescents. Guardians should take care to prevent accidental poisoning, while psychiatric consultation and national moderation will be needed to prevent intentional poisoning.

Leucine rich glioma inactivated (LGI1) encephalitis is an uncommon neurological disorder rarely encountered in clinical practice. However, it is a potentially fatal autoimmune syndrome that can decrease the level of consciousness, possibly progressing to coma. Additionally, unless diagnosed and promptly treated, it can cause permanent cognitive impairment. Since LGI1 encephalitis can initially present with psychiatric symptoms, there can be delays in reaching a proper diagnosis. This report describes a case of a 47-year-old woman with LGI1 antibodies-associated limbic encephalitis who initially presented with psychosis. Her blood tests were normal and no MRI and EEG abnormalities were found. Cerebrospinal fluid analysis was negative for other possible infectious causes. Three months after admission, she was found to be LGI1 antibody positive. LGI1 encephalitis should be suspected in patients with symptoms such as memory loss, confusion, seizures, and psychiatric symptoms. Prompt diagnosis and treatment of LGI1 encephalitis are warranted because prognosis becomes worse when such actions are delayed.
