Significant differences in clinical features have been reported in women with substance use disorders (SUDs) between those with the dissociative subtype of posttraumatic stress disorder (D-PTSD) compared to those without, namely more severe trauma histories, PTSD symptoms, and general psychopathology. This presentation reports on a group of 88 women with PTSD and SUD taking part in a research treatment study. All women were assessed using the Clinician Administered PTSD Scale for DSM-5 (CAPS-5) and were categorized into those with (n = 23, 26%) and without (n = 65, 74%) D-PTSD. Assessments for SUDs were via the Multi-International Neuropsychiatric Inventory, Seventh Version (MINI-7). Compared to those without D-PTSD, those with D-PTSD had significantly higher CAPS-5 scores (50.5 ± 9.9 v. 39.6 ± 8.8), greater number of PTSD symptoms (16.4 ± 2.6 v. 14.2 ± 2.4), more alcohol use disorder (AUD) (65.2% v. 30.8%), and more non-cocaine stimulant use disorder (34.8% v. 12.3%). No significant differences were found for other SUDs. These women with SUDs and D-PTSD have higher degrees of PTSD severity as well as unique clinical presentations. Future research is needed to explore the significance of these findings for clinical assessment and treatment.
与没有分离型创伤后应激障碍(D-PTSD)的患者相比,患有物质使用障碍(SUD)的女性患者中,D-PTSD 患者的临床特征存在显著差异,例如更严重的创伤史、创伤后应激障碍症状和一般精神病理学。本报告介绍了一项对 88 名患有 PTSD 和 SUD 的女性进行的研究治疗研究。所有女性均使用 DSM-5 临床医生管理 PTSD 量表(CAPS-5)进行评估,并分为患有(n=23,26%)和不患有(n=65,74%)D-PTSD 的患者。通过第七版多国际神经精神疾病问卷(MINI-7)评估 SUD。与不患有 D-PTSD 的患者相比,患有 D-PTSD 的患者的 CAPS-5 评分明显更高(50.5±9.9v.39.6±8.8),创伤后应激障碍症状更多(16.4±2.6v.14.2±2.4),酒精使用障碍(AUD)更多(65.2%v.30.8%),非可卡因兴奋剂使用障碍更多(34.8%v.12.3%)。其他 SUD 无显著差异。这些患有 SUD 和 D-PTSD 的女性患者具有更高程度的 PTSD 严重程度和独特的临床表现。需要进一步研究探讨这些发现对临床评估和治疗的意义。
