“…In theory, any therapy that can affect any of these three features, which can lead to the highly negative emotions, should be effective treatments for PTSD. One way to view cognitive therapies is that they are effective in part because they can alter the first feature (Yadin & Foa, 2007). One way to view exposure therapies is that they are effective in part because they can reduce the second feature (Institute of Medicine, 2008).…”

The current study examined cognitive-emotional distinctiveness (CED), the extent to which emotions are linked with event information, in memories associated with PTSD. Participants either with PTSD (n=68) or without PTSD (n=40) completed a modified multidimensional scaling technique to measure CED for their most negative and most positive events. The results revealed that participants in the PTSD group evidenced significantly lower levels of CED. This group difference remained significant when we limited the analysis to traumatic events that led to a PTSD diagnosis (n=33) in comparison to control participants who nominated a traumatic event that did not result in PTSD (n=32). Replicating previous findings, CED levels were higher in memories of negative events, in comparison to positive events. These results provide empirical evidence that memories associated with PTSD do contain special organizational features with respect to the links between emotions and memory. Implications for understanding and treating PTSD are discussed.

The analysis of high explosives by liquid chromatography/electrospray ionization mass spectrometry: multiplexed detection of negative ion adducts

The negative ion electrospray ionization mass spectrometric (ESI-MS) detection of adducts of high explosives with chloride, formate, acetate, and nitrate was used to demonstrate the gas-phase interaction of neutral explosives with these anions. The relative intensities of the adduct species were determined to compare the competitive formation of the selected high explosives and anions. The relative stability of the adduct species varies, yielding preferential formation of certain anionic adducts with different high explosives. To exploit this effect, an isocratic high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC)/ESI-MS method was developed and used for the simultaneous analysis of high explosives using two different techniques for the addition of the anionic additives; pre- and post-column. The results show that the pre-column approach provides similar results with improved selectivity for specific explosives. By detecting characteristic adduct species for each explosive, this method provides a qualitative and quantitative approach for the analysis and identification of high explosives.

“…In a meta-analysis of treatment outcomes for CBT, robust effect sizes were found for the CBT treatment of generalized anxiety disorder, PTSD, and other anxiety disorders (Butler, Chapman, Forman, & Beck, 2006). A number of other empirically supported treatments currently exist for the treatment of PTSD (Foa et al, 1999), including anxiety management (i.e., progressive muscle relaxation [PMR]), eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR), and exposure therapy (Yadin & Foa, 2007).…”

Experimental Exposure Therapy for Posttraumatic Nightmares

Nightmares are one of the most troubling features of posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), yet imagery rehearsal training (IRT) is currently the only empirically supported treatment for posttraumatic nightmares. Although IRT is effective, it is unknown whether IRT or the exposure, which is inherent in this procedure, causes the decrease in nightmares. This study will attempt to clarify this issue by using exposure therapy alone to treat a patient with PTSD. The participant is a 39-year-old male who experienced a single traumatic event. Data were collected on his sleep habits, as well as on the frequency and intensity of the nightmares. Results indicate that exposure-based nightmare treatment for PTSD sufferers should be considered in conjunction with standard treatment packages.
