This document discusses classification in psychiatry and the goals and challenges of developing a psychiatric classification system. It addresses what constitutes normal versus abnormal behavior and the definition of a mental disorder. It describes the multiaxial system used in the DSM and provides examples of diagnostic groupings. It also discusses issues regarding reliability and validity in psychiatric diagnosis and controversies surrounding classification.
Classification in Psychiatry
The concept, reliability, validity, advantages and disadvantages of different classification systems, controversies in psychiatry classification
The DSM-5: Overview of Main Themes and Diagnostic RevisionsJames Tobin, Ph.D.
DSM-5 represents the field’s most recent attempt at revising the DSM-IV-TR diagnostic nomenclature. In this presentation, I will outline the primary efforts of the DSM-5 Task Force and the major diagnostic changes that were incorporated in the new manual, with an emphasis on the disorders of adulthood. The most promising changes are the organization of mental illness as a spectrum, the addition of dimensionality to specifier descriptions, lifespan/development and cultural refinements, and the articulation of a new hybrid model of mental illness. In the context of these gains, I also will provide a summary of the major controversies surrounding the DSM-5, including misgivings about lower thresholds to qualify for numerous diagnoses and the related concern that we may now run the risk of pathologizing “normal” human functioning.

Fears and Phobias
A significant change to the DSM-5 is the separation of diagnoses formerly grouped together in
the DSM-IV. Anxiety disorders no longer include obsessive-compulsive disorders, which are
now their own classification (obsessive-compulsive and related disorders). Also separated from
anxiety disorders are posttraumatic stress disorder and acute stress disorder, which are now
included in the classification of trauma- and stressor-related disorders.
Anxiety Disorders
There are few changes to the diagnoses in this classification that directly impact individuals
under the age of 18. In fact, the primary change has been the re-grouping of disorders to more
accurately reflect associations in diagnostic criteria. This revised classification includes
separation anxiety disorder, selective mutism (formerly included in disorders usually first
diagnosed in infancy, childhood, or adolescence in the DSM-IV), specific phobia, social anxiety
disorder (formerly social phobia), panic disorder, agoraphobia, generalized anxiety disorder,
anxiety due to another medical condition, other specified anxiety disorder, and unspecified
anxiety disorder.
The diagnosis anxiety disorder not otherwise specified has been removed, and two new
diagnoses added: other specified anxiety disorder and unspecified anxiety disorder. Both of these
diagnoses represent significant clinical distress or impairment based on anxiety disorder
diagnostic criteria, but do not meet full criteria for a specific diagnosis. Clinicians should use
other specified anxiety disorder and add the specific reason for the more general diagnosis (e.g.,
short duration of symptoms or cultural association). The latter diagnosis—unspecified anxiety
disorder—is used when clinicians cannot (or choose not to) identify reasons for an inability to
make a more specific diagnosis, yet clearly observe multiple criteria from the anxiety disorders
classification.
Below is a summary of additional changes to the diagnoses in this classification that may impact
individuals under the age of 18.
Social Anxiety Disorder (Social Phobia)
The preferred diagnostic descriptor is now social anxiety disorder, reflecting a more specific
association with symptomology. Wording of criteria has been altered to be more clear and
applicable across social situations and age ranges. For children, anxiety must occur in peer
settings (i.e., not exclusively with adults); the requirement that the child must exhibit a capacity
for age-appropriate social interaction with familiar people has been removed. Also, consistency
across ages has been supported by the requirement of duration to be at least six months (for all
ages) and by the deletion of the need for individuals over 18 to recognize the fear is
unreasonable.
Separation Anxiety Disorder
This disorder—formerly included in disorders usually first diagnosed in infancy, childhood, or
adolescence—has been moved to the anxi.

Patients in medical rehabilitation (such as for stroke or spinal cord injury) often have many medical problems that reduce their energy and cognition. If their team decides they are 'psychologically unmotivated' they are discharged prematurely to nursing homes. Appropriate medical intervention can restore 'motivation' as well.
Antimicrobial stewardship to prevent antimicrobial resistanceGovindRankawat1
India is among the nations with the highest burden of bacterial infections.
India is one of the largest consumers of antibiotics worldwide.
India carries one of the largest burdens of drug‑resistant pathogens worldwide.
Highest burden of multidrug‑resistant tuberculosis,
Alarmingly high resistance among Gram‑negative and Gram‑positive bacteria even to newer antimicrobials such as carbapenems.

Title: Sense of Smell
Presenter: Dr. Faiza, Assistant Professor of Physiology
Qualifications:
MBBS (Best Graduate, AIMC Lahore)
FCPS Physiology
ICMT, CHPE, DHPE (STMU)
MPH (GC University, Faisalabad)
MBA (Virtual University of Pakistan)
Learning Objectives:
Describe the primary categories of smells and the concept of odor blindness.
Explain the structure and location of the olfactory membrane and mucosa, including the types and roles of cells involved in olfaction.
Describe the pathway and mechanisms of olfactory signal transmission from the olfactory receptors to the brain.
Illustrate the biochemical cascade triggered by odorant binding to olfactory receptors, including the role of G-proteins and second messengers in generating an action potential.
Identify different types of olfactory disorders such as anosmia, hyposmia, hyperosmia, and dysosmia, including their potential causes.
Key Topics:
Olfactory Genes:
3% of the human genome accounts for olfactory genes.
400 genes for odorant receptors.
Olfactory Membrane:
Located in the superior part of the nasal cavity.
Medially: Folds downward along the superior septum.
Laterally: Folds over the superior turbinate and upper surface of the middle turbinate.
Total surface area: 5-10 square centimeters.
Olfactory Mucosa:
Olfactory Cells: Bipolar nerve cells derived from the CNS (100 million), with 4-25 olfactory cilia per cell.
Sustentacular Cells: Produce mucus and maintain ionic and molecular environment.
Basal Cells: Replace worn-out olfactory cells with an average lifespan of 1-2 months.
Bowman’s Gland: Secretes mucus.
Stimulation of Olfactory Cells:
Odorant dissolves in mucus and attaches to receptors on olfactory cilia.
Involves a cascade effect through G-proteins and second messengers, leading to depolarization and action potential generation in the olfactory nerve.
Quality of a Good Odorant:
Small (3-20 Carbon atoms), volatile, water-soluble, and lipid-soluble.
Facilitated by odorant-binding proteins in mucus.
Membrane Potential and Action Potential:
Resting membrane potential: -55mV.
Action potential frequency in the olfactory nerve increases with odorant strength.
Adaptation Towards the Sense of Smell:
Rapid adaptation within the first second, with further slow adaptation.
Psychological adaptation greater than receptor adaptation, involving feedback inhibition from the central nervous system.
Primary Sensations of Smell:
Camphoraceous, Musky, Floral, Pepperminty, Ethereal, Pungent, Putrid.
Odor Detection Threshold:
Examples: Hydrogen sulfide (0.0005 ppm), Methyl-mercaptan (0.002 ppm).
Some toxic substances are odorless at lethal concentrations.
Characteristics of Smell:
Odor blindness for single substances due to lack of appropriate receptor protein.
Behavioral and emotional influences of smell.
Transmission of Olfactory Signals:
From olfactory cells to glomeruli in the olfactory bulb, involving lateral inhibition.
Primitive, less old, and new olfactory systems with different path

3. Goals of a Classification
System
Communication: among clinicians, between
science and practice
Clinical: facilitate identification treatment, and
prevention of mental disorders
Research: test treatment efficacy and
understand etiology
Education: teach psychopathology
Information Management: measure and pay
for care
6. What is abnormal?
Your uncle consumes a quart of
whiskey each day; he has trouble
remembering the names of people
around him
Your friend complains of many physical
problems and sees 2-3 doctors each
week
7. What is abnormal?
Your neighbor sweeps, washes, and
scrubs his driveway daily
Your cousin is pregnant and she is
dieting so that she will not get “too fat”.
8. What is Abnormal?
Possible definitions:
Statistical deviation
Violation of social norms
Subjective distress
Disability or dysfunction
Abnormal behavior does not necessarily
indicate mental illness
9. Definition of a Mental Disorder
Clinically significant ….
Behavioral or psychological….
Pattern or syndrome….
Associated with….
Present Distress OR ….
Disability/impairment Or….
With significantly increased risk of….
Suffering death, pain, disability or an
important loss of freedom
10. Definition of a Mental DisorderII
This syndrome or pattern…
Must not be merely an expectable/culturally
sanctioned response to particular event (death of a
loved one)
Considered a manifestation of a behavioral,
psychological or biological dysfunction in the
individual
Neither deviant behavior (e.g political. Releigeous or
sexual) nor conflicts between individual and society
are mental disorders
Unless they represent a dysfunction in the individual
12. From syndrome to disease
Syndrome – a set of signs and symptoms that
co-occure at a greater than chance frequency
Disorder – conjunction of a syndrome with a
clinical course
Disease – conjunction of etiology and
pathology. True disease: symptoms,
pathology, pathophysiology and underlying
causes are known as well as the relationship
between them
Illness- the psychosocial aspect of being sick
13. Psychiatric Diagnosis
Step I: Normal vs. Abnormal -Concepts
of health and disease
Step II: how to build a diagnosis
What is DSM IV and how does it work?
Controversies/Polemics/Hype
14. First Step
Determine that this is a Dis-Order: what
are the boundaries between “this” what
is presented, and normal behavior
Symptoms cause a subjective distress
and/or a clinically significant
disturbance. Discuss: Homosexuality,
Grief vs. Pathological Grief, Fetishism,
Voyerism, transverstism, Exhibitionism
15. First Step II
The boundaries from
normality: Sex
Paraphilia as an
example: recurrent,
intensely sexually
arousing fantasies,
sexual urges or sexual
behaviors that involve
nonhuman objects, the
suffering of self or
partner, children or non
consenting partner.
16. First Step II
To qualify as a DSM-IV
diagnosis these
patterns must have
existed at least six
months and they have
cause clinically
significant impairment in
social, occupational or
some other important
area of functions,
subjective disress or
danger
17. Second Step
Determine what are the symptoms and
signs and their temporal relationship:
are the symptoms cluster belong to
psychosis, affective disorder, cognitive
impairement, etc
Course
Axis: II personality, mental retardation,
axis III, stressors (Axis IV), GAF
19. DD of Psychosis with Mood
Disorder
Psychosis
medical substance
Symptoms of sc
Lasting 1 m.
Depression or mania

21. Another Practical approach to
Mental Disorders
Organic (medical or substance) vs. non
organic
Psychotic vs. non psychotic
If Psychotic with or without affective
symptoms
Or Affective with or without psychotic
symptoms
Severe Mental Disorders vs. “Soft Psychiatry
22. Definitions of Depression
Symptoms
Episodes
Disorders
Major Depressive Disorder
Bipolar Disorder
Dysthymia
Depressive Disorder NOS (e.g. subthreshold
depression)
23. Symptoms of Depression
Mood Symptoms
- Depressed mood or
irritability
- Loss of interest or
pleasure in most
activities
- Feelings of worthlessness
or guilt
- Thoughts of death or a
desire to die
• Cognitive Symptoms
- Difficulty thinking,
concentrating, or making
decisions
24. Symptoms of Depression,
cont.
Physical Symptoms
Weight loss or
weight gain
Psychomotor
agitation or
retardation
Insomnia or
hyposomnia
Fatigue or loss of
energy
25. Depressive Episodes
Major Depressive Episode
Depressed mood or loss of interest or
pleasure in most activities, plus 5 of 9
symptoms
Most of the day, nearly every day for a
minimum of 2 weeks
Combinations of symptoms may vary
significantly from individual to individual
Significant functional impairment or
interference
Manic, Mixed, and Hypomanic Episodes
27. DSM-III Advantages
• Improved reliability
• Facilitated communication within and
between research and clinical communities
• Wide use by clinicians, researchers,
educators, trainees
• Promoted emphasis on empirical data
• Methodological and content innovations

29. Categorical and Dimensional
Systems
DSM-IV is a categorical system:
categories may share features (criteria)
and may share members (both
diagnoses in the same individual)
Dimensional: no discrete categories.
Pathology represent a statistical
deviation from the norm.
Combination of the two: severity, GAF

34. Diagnostic Approach
Presenting symptom - e.g. depressed mood
Rule out disorder due to general medical
condition – e.g. due to hypothyroidism
Rule out disorder due to direct effects of a
substance - e.g. alcohol induced, reserpine
induced
Determine specific primary disorder(s)
Multiple diagnoses
Some hierarchies
“Not better accounted for…”
35. Diagnostic Approach
Distinguishing Adjustment Disorder from Not
Otherwise Specified (NOS) – e.g. response to
stressor
Establishing boundary with no mental
disorder - i.e. clinical significance/cultural sanction,
i.e. bereavement
Add subtypes/specifiers
severity (mild moderate, severe – with or without
psychotic features)
treatment relevant (melancholic, a typical, etc.)

Editor's Notes
Most psychiatric illnesses and many medical illnesses are not disease in the strict sense of the word.
Understanding the syndrome and cause facilitate the discovery of etiology. For example the separation of Down Syndrome from the rest of Mental Disorders facilitate the discovery of the Trisomy 21.
A similar relation is seen between the disorder dementia paralytica and the discovery of the causative agent of the disease syphilis: Treponema Pallidum
In DSM-III there was “ego-dystonic homosexuality” and DSM-III-R excluded it totally. This exempliffied a social change in the american society and to view homosexuality as a normal variant of human behavior.
