plus attention is to the details, inadequacy of self-appraisal, feeling

of inferiority, an increase necessity is for control and lordship over

other, aggression (socially inadequate behavior, episodes of anger).

Conclusions

Psychopathological features presented in patients

with comorbidity of PTSD and TBI are not specific and can be within

the framework of other psychogenic, exogenous, organic, posttrau-

matic or neurological disorders and diseases. PTSD can combine

with other psychical and somatic disorders that caused chronolog-

ical and pathogenetical comorbidity in patients with both states.

Aim

Approximately 30–60% of the stroke survivors suffers from

depression. This, together with the physical changes after stroke

may lead to a decline in their quality of life (QOL). The aim of

this paper was to analyse the incidence of post-stroke depression,

associated risk factors and its influence on the QOL.

Material and methods

We carried out a prospective study on

stroke patients during a period of 6months. We excluded patients

with dysphasia and aphasia. For each patient, we collected socio-

demographic characteristics aswell as clinical and therapeutic data.

We used the Hamilton Depression Scale to screen for anxiety and

depression, the SF-36 scale to assess the quality of life andmodified

Rankin scale (mRS) to measure the degree of disability.

Results

We included 155 men and 143 women with stroke, with

mean age of 58.15 years. Out of 298 analysed patients, depression

was present in 147 (49.3%). Associated risk factors were hyperten-

sion, female gender and severity of stroke (

P

< 0.05). Themean score

of the SF-36 was 52.18. Impaired QOL was found in 221 (74.1%) and

mRS > 3 was found in 169 (57.1%) of the patients. Impaired men-

tal component of QOL significantly correlated with the presence

of depression (

P

< 0.05) and anxiety (

P

< 0.05). The severe degree of

disability had a significant negative impact on all areas of QOL.

Conclusion

Important effect after stroke is occurrence of depres-

sion which affects the QOL and functional outcome. All stroke

patients should be evaluated for depression through regular

interviews with them and their families or caregivers. Adequate

antidepressant treatment should be given, in order to improve the

QOL and physical rehabilitation.

Introduction

Extended brief interventions (EBIs) are effective in

targeting alcohol misuse in the general population. However, little

is known on the effects of EBI in adultswith intellectual (also known

as learning disabilities).

Objectives

In this feasibility trial we compared EBI with usual

care for alcohol misuse in adults with mild to moderate intellectual

disability (ID).

Methods

The study took place in three community ID services

in England. Participants aged 18–65 years with reported alcohol

problems, a score > 8 on the alcohol use disorder identification test

(AUDIT), and IQ < 70 (+/5% CI) were recruited and were randomly

allocated to either EBI (5 weekly sessions and 1 follow-up at 8

weeks) and usual care or usual care alone. Research assessments

took place at baseline, two and three months.

Results

Thirty individuals were randomised (15 in each arm).

In regard to harmful drinking, at baseline, all the participants

exceeded the relevant threshold. At 8 weeks, the proportion of

participants with harmful drinking decreased to 60% for both

groups, at 12 weeks it was decreased by 66.7% and 46.7% for the

intervention and the control group respectively. The unit cost for

the delivery of EBI is

£

430.

Conclusions

Recruitment to this trial has been proven challeng-

ing as prevalence of alcohol misuse in the targeted population was

lower than anticipated. EBI may provide an effective low intensity

treatment for this population. Participants’ and carers’ feedback on

their experience was overall positive.

Background

Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is

a neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by persistent dif-

ficulties with attention, increased impulsivity and hyperactivity.

Comorbidity is often reported in adults with ADHD with a range of

60–100% of patients having at least one co-morbid condition.

Objective

The purpose of this study is to determine the preva-

lence of ADHD among university students and to investigate some

co-occurring symptoms and disorders.

Aims

We aimed to raise awareness of adult ADHDandunderscore

its co-morbidity.

Method

486 undergraduate students at Bezmialem Vakif univer-

sity in Istanbul filled in the Adult ADHD Self-Report Scale (ASRS),

Beck Anxiety Scale (Beck-A), Beck Depression Scale (Beck-D) and a

purpose-designed structured socio-demographic form.

Results

Our results revealed that 6% of participants reported sig-

nificant ADHD symptoms using 1.5 standard deviation above mean

on the ASRS. 67% of students with significant ADHD symptoms

had a psychiatric history other than ADHD. History of depression,

anxiety and sleep problems were significantly higher in this group

(

P

< 0.05). They scored higher on Beck-A and Beck-D (

P

< 0.05). Stu-

dentswith significant ADHD symptoms reportedmore night eating,

binge eating behaviours andmore headache (

P

< 0.05). Therewas no

statistically significant difference in the history of epilepsy, asthma,

allergy and diabetes. Family history of psychiatric disorder partic-
