Chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE) is a neurodegenerative disease associated with repeated head injury. The common presenting neuropsychiatric manifestations and diagnostic strategies for early diagnosis and subsequent treatment will be reviewed. This article discusses methods for injury prevention, risk assessment, and methods for supportive symptom management including lifestyle modifications, physical, occupational, and neurorehabilitation, and pharmaceutical management. Lastly, we propose the use of assessment tools validated for other neurodegenerative disorders in CTE to establish a baseline, track outcomes, and measure improvement in this population.

Objective: The aim of this study is to evaluate the comorbid psychiatric disorders, psychiatric signs and symptoms of the mother and family functionality in children with epilepsy, as well as to examine the relationship between the mentioned variables and quality of life. Methods: The study was conducted with 31 children between the ages 8-11 with a diagnosis of epilepsy for at least 6 months and their mothers; and 30 healthy children of the similar age group and their mothers as the control group. Childhood Depression Inventory (CDI), Children State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI-CH), Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory (PedsQL) was used for children in the Epilepsy and control groups, State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI), Symptom Checklist-90-Revised (SCL-90-R) and Family Assessment Device (FAD) was used for mothers in both groups. Results: According to the results of our study the CDI scores of children in the epilepsy group were found to be significantly higher than of those in the control group. No significant difference was found between both groups in terms of their STAI-CH scores, as well as in terms of total STAI and SCL-90-R scores of mothers in both groups. However, the Ange and Hostility subscale scores of mothers in the epilepsy group were found to be significantly higher than of those in the control group. In addition, the PedsQL total and subscale points of children in the epilepsy group were found to be significantly lower than of those in the control group. Finally, a negative correlation has been detected between the PedsQL scores of the epilepsy group and the children's CDI and STAI-CH scores, the STAI and SCL-90-R scores of the mothers and the FAD scores. Moreover, it was determined that the depression level of the children in the epilepsy group had a significant effect on the quality of life. Conclusion: Our findings suggest a correlation between the quality of life in children with epilepsy and the psychiatric symptoms of children and mothers as well as family functionality.

Objective: Antisocial personality disorder (ASPD) is a mental disorder with impaired psychosocial functioning and carries a high risk for suicide. Previous studies have investigated the role of metacognitive considerations in individual behavioral differences and provided ample evidence of significant relationships between emotional processes, cognition, metacognitive beliefs, and behavior. A close relationship between metacognitive functions and personality disorders was suggested. This study investigated the relationship between the metacognitive characteristics of male patients with ASPD and suicidal behavior. Method: We included seventy-four patients diagnosed with ASPD according to DSM-5 criteria, who applied to Çukurova University Faculty of Medicine Balcalı Hospital, Department of Psychiatry, as the patient group and 74 healthy volunteers as the control group. Sociodemographic data form, Metacognition Questionnaire (MCQ), Beck Suicidal Ideation Scale (BSIS), Suicidal Behaviors Questionnaire (SBQ), Beck Depression Inventory (BDI), and Beck Anxiety Inventory (BAI) were administered to the participants. Results: The control and ASPD groups were similar in terms of age, years of education, educational and marital status, and place of residence (p>0.05 for each). The MCQ and its subscales, BSIS, SBQ, BDI, and BAI scale scores, were significantly higher in the patient group (p<0.05 for each). Patients who have previously attempted suicide have significantly higher MCQ- uncontrollability and danger (p=0.028), MCQ- need to control thoughts subscales (p=0.016), and BSIS, SBS, BDI, BAI (p<0.001 for each) mean scores than those who have not attempted suicide. There was a positive correlation between SBQ and MCQ-cognitive confidence (p=0.04) and MCQ- need to control thoughts (p=0.01) subscales in the patient group. Conclusions: Metacognitive beliefs may be associated with the severity of suicidal behavior, depression, and anxiety symptoms in male patients with ASPD. The negative metacognitive functions, especially beliefs about the need to control thoughts, may help determine the risk of suicide in individuals with ASPD, and metacognitive therapy methods may be beneficial for those patients.
