Methods Thirty-three patients who sought treatment for NSSI
(NSSI group) were compared with 33 individuals without psychi-
atric disorder (control group). We also investigated Axis I disorders,
executive functions and problem solving capacity.
Results In both groups, the majority were women (77.25%) with
a mean age of 30 years, and the beginning of NSSI behavior of
16 years. The most common NSSI behaviour was skin cutting, and
the most common reason given for engaging in that behaviour
was “to stop negative feelings”. The most common psychiatric
comorbidities were major depressive disorder (60.6%). Compared
to controls, the group with NSSI showed lower results in rela-
tion to problem solving capacity (P = 0.000) and mental flexibility
(P = 0.007). Deficits in problem solving capacity may be a reflection
of lowmental flexibility of adultswithNSSI. Thismay be a risk factor
for the beginning of NSSI and the persistence of it in adulthood.
Conclusion Early identification and treatment focused on prob-
lem solving capacity during the adolescence may prevent the
chronicity of NSSI.

Background Patients with severe mental illness (SMI) suffer from
two to three times higher rates of obesity, and this has translated
into much higher rates of obesity-related morbidity and premature
mortality in this population.
Aims Measuring the frequency of obesity and its associations
with gender, and others socio-demographics factors among 115
adults psychiatric outpatients.
Methods A cross-sectional study, was conducted to assess fre-
quency of obesity among 115 adults attending publicmental health
department in the regional hospital of Gabes (south of Tunisia).
For the diagnosis of mental disorders, we used the diagnostic and
statistical manual of mental disorders (DSM-V). Obesity was esti-
mated by body mass index (BMI). This index is defined as the ratio
of weight (kg) to squared size (m2). Overweight is defined as a
BMI between 25 and 29.9 kg/m2 and obesity by a BMI ≥ 30 kg/m2.
BMI was measured directly and other information was gathered by
interview.
Results The mean BMI was 25. In our patients, 40.9% were over-
weight, 49.6% (n = 57) were obese including 8.7% ( n = 10) who were
morbidly obese. Obesity was significantly more frequent in women
(63.8% vs 39.7%, P= 0.009), living in a couple (60.9% vs 42%, P = 0.03)
and having a medium or high socioeconomic level (53.3% vs 30.4%,
P = 0.03). There were no differences between obese and non-obese
regarding age, level of education and professional status.
Conclusion The high prevalence of obesity among women sug-
gests that targeted approaches are needed to promote optimal
physical health in this population.

Introduction Music is claimed to improve mental function and
many researchers claim that this effect related to Mozart’s music is
limited to enhancement of the spatial temporal reasoning and not
to other cognitive functions.
Objectives To explore the influence of Mozart’s music on visuo-
spatial memory.
Methods Sixty adults (37women and23men), withMage = 21.83,
SDage = 2.38, Meducation = 14.03, SD education = .99, and without any
formal musical education were examined through an experimental
process. Participants in groups of ten listened to Mozart’s sonata
for two pianos in D major, K.448, to Mozart’s violin concerto No.3
in G major, K.216, and to a no sounds condition in varying order.
The participants after listening to each 10-minute condition were
presented with a series of randomly generated patterns made up of
black squares on a chess-like surface. This was used in order to test
the storage capacity of their visuospatial memory. After 3 seconds
of presentation for each drawing, they were asked to reproduce by
drawing these patterns that progressively got bigger.
Results Results revealed for all three conditions that the num-
ber of correct grid drawings made by the participants was not
significantly statistically different ( P> 05), and therefore their vis-
uospatial memory retention was not influenced by any kind of
music.
Conclusions Future research could examine in more detail the
retention and manipulation of visuospatial information not only in
tasks similar to the visual patterns test, but also in different tests
used for clinical and non-clinical populations.

Introduction Psychiatric patients tend to have severe metabolic
alterations of multifactorial causes, lifestyle, diet, drug use and
psychopharmacological treatment, especially antipsychotic drugs
which act as risk factors for cardiovascular disease, strokes, infec-
tions and complications of diseases basal negatively influencing its
evolution and prognosis.
