  • Risk and resilience factors associated with Traumatic Loss-related PTSD in U.S. military veterans: Results from the National Health and Resilience in Veterans Study.
    Psychiatry research, 2021
    Co-Authors: Ruth H Asch, Irina Esterlis, Steven M Southwick, Robert H Pietrzak
    Abstract:

    Sudden death of a loved one is the most prevalent potentially Traumatic event worldwide, yet little is known about risk and resilience factors associated with Traumatic Loss-related postTraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Data from a nationally representative sample of U.S. military veterans were analyzed to identify sociodemographic, military, health and psychosocial correlates of Traumatic Loss-related PTSD. Loneliness, somatic symptoms, and attachment style were the strongest correlates of PTSD symptom severity and positive screens for Traumatic Loss-related PTSD. Loneliness, somatic symptoms, and attachment style may represent therapeutic targets to help mitigate Traumatic Loss-related PTSD in U.S. veterans. Copyright © 2021. Published by Elsevier B.V.

  • Traumatic Loss of the talus treated with a talar body prosthesis and total ankle arthroplasty a case report
    Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery American Volume, 2004
    Co-Authors: Bruno Magnan, Elisa Facci, Pietro Bartolozzi
    Abstract:

    Total talar dislocation is a rare injury1-6 that usually occurs as a result of a high-energy continuation of extreme supination forces causing lateral subtalar dislocation or extreme pronation forces causing medial subtalar dislocation7. Most of these injuries are open and are associated with a high rate of postreduction complications, such as persistent infection (reported in up to 89% of patients2), shearing osteochondral fractures (45%3), osteonecrosis (33% to 50%1,8,9), and severe degenerative arthritis5,6. Prompt closed or open reduction of the talus, when possible, is the recommended treatment, in combination with soft-tissue debridement of open injuries3,10. However, the high rate of complications has led many authors to suggest that primary excision of the talus or tibiocalcaneal arthrodesis1,2,4,5,11 should be performed instead. Tibiotalar or pantalar arthrodesis has been recommended for any cases of osteonecrosis or arthritis that develop later. Primary open dislocation with Loss of the talus (“missing talus”)2, however, necessitates the performance of either a tibiocalcaneal arthrodesis or a resection arthroplasty, which is difficult to create and maintain. Both procedures often produce unwanted effects on the foot, particularly in young patients, because of Loss of function of the peritalar joints3,12-14. To avoid the necessity of performing these procedures and to preserve ankle function, the implantation of a talar body prosthesis has been proposed15. Because the long-term survival of such an implant, especially in active individuals, is not known, a total ankle arthroplasty coupled with a talar prosthesis fixed to the calcaneus and the navicular may be an alternative solution. We describe the case of a forty-five-year-old man in whom total ankle arthroplasty and …

  • My Future: Psychodrama and Meditation to Improve Well-Being Through the Elaboration of Traumatic Loss Among Italian High School Students
    Frontiers in psychology, 2021
    Co-Authors: Ines Testoni, Lucia Ronconi, Gianmarco Biancalani, Andrea Zottino, Michael Wieser
    Abstract:

    This study was designed as an action-research aimed to help students to elaborate their feelings of Traumatic grief, due to a car accident and a suicide of two of their classmates, in an Italian high school. A death education project was realized in order to prevent the Werther effect. The intervention was based on psychodramatic techniques and meditation with Tibetan bells to encourage reflection on the suffering of Traumatic Loss, the sense of life and their future. A total of 89 students from 4 classes (46 in the experimental group: 2 classes, 43 in the control groups: two classes) participated in the study, among which 82 (45 in the experimental group, 37 in the control group) completed the pre-test and the post-test survey. The intervention consisted of eight two-hour meetings, during which the themes of death and Loss were dealt with through theoretical discussions, dramatization and meditation. Two other classes which participated in the assessment as a control group did not attend the activities. The following instruments were used: Death Attitude Profile-Revised, which measures individual attitudes towards death; Psychological Well-being Scale, which measures a person’s psychological well-being; Resilience Scale for Adolescents, which measures the construct of resilience in adolescents; Self-Transcendence Scale, which measures self-transcendence; and Testoni Death Representation Scale, which measures the ontological representations of death. The results demonstrated that in the experimental group, there was a reduction in the fear of death and its avoidance, and that the students normalised the representation of death as something natural, thus improving their well-being. It is consequently possible to say that well-being is not simply the absence of suffering and worries, but rather, is rooted in the possibility of thinking of creative solutions to the trauma.
