- | The concept of post-traumatic stress is not a new one. War veterans returning from battle have been reporting symptoms of flashbacks, hyper-arousal, anxiety and depression, for hundreds of years (Malia S). When Civil war veterans were first diagnosed, physicians referred to it as “Soldier’s Heart”, “Shell Shock” or “Combat Fatigue”. It wasn’t until 1980, that the American Psychiatric Association (APA) added Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) to the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-III). | + | The concept of post-traumatic stress is not a new one.

- | PTSD is broadly characterized by an extreme reaction to trauma that changes how a person thinks, feels and behaves (Maria, S). This can present in a variety of different ways, of varying severity, and causes considerable distress to the individual, usually affecting their ability to function normally. An individual who develops PTSD hasn't necessarily gone through a traumatic event, but may experience symptoms of traumatic stress indirectly from a trauma affecting close friends or family (Nih, 2016). The proximity, duration and severity of trauma exposure can affect whether or not you develop symptoms. For example, you are more likely to develop symptoms if you personally experience chronic, severe trauma such as childhood abuse, rather than an individual who witnesses one-time experience, such as a robbery (APA, 2013). | + | PTSD is broadly characterized by an extreme reaction to trauma that changes how a person thinks, feels and behaves (Malia, 2014).

- | Normally, when an individual is exposed to a threat, their sympathetic nervous system (fight or flight response) will be activated (APA, 2013). The sympathetic nervous system will release epinephrine & norepinephrine; pupils dilate, mouth dries, adrenal glands release norepinephrine, liver releases glucose, bladder inhibits urination and skin increases sweat production. The brain will release ACTH, cortisol and adrenaline, and heart rate will increase (APA, 2013). When you are no longer exposed to the threat, the parasympathetic nervous system will kick in and all of these processes will reverse. | + | Normally, when an individual is exposed to a threat, their sympathetic nervous system (fight or flight response) will be activated (American Psychiatric Association, 2013).

- | {{::picture1.png?200|}} | + | Post-traumatic stress disorder is characterized by four main types of symptoms: reliving the trauma through intrusive memories, experiencing emotional numbness and avoidance behaviour, portraying negative changes in thinking and mood as well as changes in physical and emotional reactions (PTSD Mayo Clinic, 2017). |
- | **1. Intrusive memories** | + | The first set of symptoms are displayed as recurrent, unpleasant and distressing memories of the traumatic event. These could occur through reliving the traumatic event as if it were happening again. Intrusive memories could take a form of distressing dreams or nightmares about the traumatic event. The individual could also experience severe emotional distress or physical reactions to something that recalls the traumatic event. Individuals suffering with PTSD could also display avoidance behaviour. This behaviour is displayed through avoidance of talking about the traumatic event as well as avoidance of activities or people that recall the traumatic event. The third set of symptoms are characterized by negative changes in thinking and mood. These symptoms might include having negative thoughts about oneself, other people or the world as well as being hopeless about the future. Individuals could also experience memory problems, including not remembering important aspects of the traumatic event. It might also be difficult to maintain close relationships and feeling detached from family and friends. PTSD patients may also lack interest in activities once enjoyed and have difficulty experiencing positive emotions. This is often described as being emotionally numb. The last set of symptoms often displayed are changes in physical and emotional reactions. Changes in physical reactions might include being easily startled or frightened, being on guard or feeling in danger most of the time as well as displaying self-destructive behaviour (e.g., excess drinking, driving too fast). Changes in emotional reactions could display as being unable to concentrate or focus, being easily irritable, displaying angry outburst or aggressive behaviour as well as displaying overwhelming guilt or shame. Children of six years of age and older could display PTSD by re-enacting the traumatic event or aspects of the traumatic event through play. They could also experience frightening dreams that may or may not include aspects of the traumatic event (PTSD Mayo Clinic, 2017). |

===== Etiology ===== | ===== Etiology ===== | ||
- | PTSD can develop in war veterans, children, and victims of natural disasters, sexual or physical abuse, family violence, and torture (The National Institute of Mental Health, 2016). If a person directly experiences the traumatic event and there is bodily harm involved, the risk of PTSD is significantly higher (Ford et al., 2015). If a person witnesses the traumatic event taking place, and the event is on a large scale like instances of war and genocide, this can lead to a greater likelihood of developing PTSD. Repeated exposure to traumatic stressors, known as “retraumatization”, has proven to increase PTSD risk in individuals. This is still being debated as the criteria for what should be considered retraumatization has not been defined. PTSD is not triggered exclusively by traumatic experiences (Ford et al., 2015). Approximately 80-90% of people exposed to traumatic events do not develop PTSD. If the traumatic event occurs during one’s developmental years, the risk of developing PTSD is greater by 75% or more (Ford et al., 2015). | + | PTSD can develop in war veterans, children, and victims of natural disasters, sexual or physical abuse, family violence, and torture (National Institute of Mental Health, 2016).

- | PTSD can develop at any age however, adolescents and young to midlife adults have a greater risk compared to children and elderly populations(Ford et al., 2015). Females and ethnic-racial minorities are also more susceptible to developing PTSD, the latter being a result of social and economic factors like racial stigma, discrimination, and poverty (Ford et al., 2015). Additional determinants that increase one’s likelihood of developing PTSD are childhood trauma, poverty, living through dangerous events, dealing with physical injuries and having a history of mental illness or substance abuse (The National Institute of Mental Health, 2016). The type of response that follow these traumatic events are also risk factors, known as “peritraumatic” risk factors (Ford et al., 2015). Some of the main peritraumatic risk factors include high levels of initial distress characterized by increases in blood pressure, as well as dissociation and disorientation (Ford et al., 2015). | + | PTSD can develop at any age however, adolescents and young to midlife adults have a greater risk compared to children and elderly populations(Ford et al., 2015).

- | Few research studies have been conducted on the genetics of PTSD and findings have generally produced inconclusive results (Sareen, 2017). A study analyzing the stress-related gene FKBP5 found that the presence of one of four polymorphisms on the gene was linked to an increased risk of PTSD in patients who had suffered child abuse. Patients without a history of child abuse did not show an increased risk (Sareen, 2017). | + | Few research studies have been conducted on the genetics of PTSD and findings have generally produced inconclusive results (Sareen, 2017).

- | The amygdala is responsible for stimulating the hippocampus to allow the brain to learn and create memories pertaining to specific threats (Vieweg, 2006). The initial reaction to a traumatic stressor is triggered by the amygdala. The prefrontal cortex is responsible for maintaining a cognitive understanding of the stimulus, including the event itself and the biopsychosocial responses of the traumatic event in the short and long-term (Vieweg, 2006). In a study comparing a PTSD patient population and a control population, individuals with PTSD showed reduced volume of the hippocampus, left amygdala, and anterior cingulate cortex compared to matched controls (Sareen, 2017). Other research has shown the decreased function of the left hemisphere, which may explain the confusion associated when recalling the sequence of traumatic events (Sareen, 2017). Findings have demonstrated greater central norepinephrine levels with down-regulation of central adrenergic receptors in PTSD individuals. PTSD individuals have also shown reduced glucocorticoid levels and up-regulation of their receptors (Sareen, 2017). | + | The amygdala is responsible for stimulating the hippocampus to allow the brain to learn and create memories pertaining to specific threats (Vieweg, 2006).

- | A recent study compared fMRI reactions between PTSD individuals and trauma-exposed healthy control individuals at different stages of a two-day fear conditioning and extinction paradigm (Hayes et al., 2012). The findings demonstrated that the PTSD group had greater amygdala activity to the shock stimulus compared to the trauma-exposed control group. Demonstration of the conditioned stimulus during the extinction phase, when the stimulus was deemed not threathening, also led to increased amygdala levels and reduced ventral medial prefrontal cortex (vmPFC) activity in the PTSD group. (Hayes et al., 2012). | + | A meta-analysis of imaging studies in PTSD was conducted. The observations found that the amygdala and mid-anterior cingulate cortex(ACC) was hyperactive, and the lateral and medial prefrontal cortex was hypoactive in PTSD for negative stimuli as opposed to neutral and positive stimuli (Hayes et al., 2012). A neurocircuitry model of PTSD suggests that abnormality in the ventromedial prefrontal cortex (vmPFC) causes overactivation of the amygdala. This progresses to an inflated fear response and weakened fear extinction learning. The dorsal anterior cingulate cortex (dACC), anterior insula, and amygdala contain a salience network that manages information of personal significance and is hyperresponsive in persons with anxiety (Hayes et al., 2012). |

- | In the brain, specifically in the brainstem medical and dorsal raphe nuclei, serotonin cell bodies (5-HT) regulate important functions (Kelmendi et al., 2016). Some vital roles that the 5-HT regulates include sleep, motor function, cognition and aggression (Sherin & Nemeroff, 2011). Previous research indicated that 5-HT is involved in stress response in patients with PTSD since the 5-HT neurons mediate anxiety producing effects on individuals through the 5-HT2 receptors (Sherin & Nemeroff, 2011). On the other hand, the 5-HT1A receptors regulate anti-anxiety producing effects from the median raphe. The5-HT1A and 5-HT1B receptors have been associated with disorders including PTSD (Bailey et al., 2013). Any changes in the functional 5-HT pathway may contribute to intrusive memories and impulsivity that is associated with PTSD symptoms PTSD (Bailey et al., 2013). Furthermore, Sari identifies the 5-HT1B receptor to be associated with PTSD.
