Abstract

Comparing serial and nonserial sexual offenders: alcohol and street drug consumption, impulsiveness and history of sexual abuse Comparando agressores sexuais seriais e não seriais: consumo de álcool e outras drogas, impulsividade e história de abuso sexual

Caracterización de los casos de abuso sexual valorados en los servicios de urgencias y consulta externa de una institución hospitalaria de primer nivel en el Departamento del Cauca, 2007 - 2015

“…Valdría la pena explorar esta variable de manera más sistemática para evaluar si en el contexto local el abuso sexual si tiene como factor de riesgo el abuso del consumo de alcohol o si por el contrario el delito se está cometiendo con plena consciencia. Esto se refuerza con los resultados de Baltieri y Guerra (32) , quienes indicaron que el consumo de alcohol y los problemas asociados con su uso no fueron diferentes entre los delincuentes sexuales seriales y los no seriales.…”

Serial Domestic Abuse in Wales: An Exploratory Study Into its Definition, Prevalence, Correlates, and Management

“…Research on other serial violent offenders suggests that what distinguishes them from nonserial offenders is a "particular type of propensity to re-offend" based on psychological factors (Kocsis & Irwin, 1998, p. 201), such as impulsivity (Baltieri & De Andrade, 2007). However, extant research on domestic abuse has found that abusers who go on to abuse new partners are not substantially different from those who reabuse the same partner (i.e., the profiles of serial and repeat abusers are more alike than different).…”

“…2 It has also been demonstrated that serum levels of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), which is a protein related to neuroplasticity, are decreased during BD mood episodes. 3 The adjunctive use of amantadine, a memantine derivative, has shown to be conducive to cognitive improvement in subjects with SZ 4 and BD. 5 This is so because amantadine has several properties: a) it increases the monoaminergic tonus via dopamine, norepinephrine, and serotonin in the amygdala and hippocampus b) has an antidepressant activity c) directly modulates glutamate as a partial agonist of N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptors, and d) contributes to BDNF increase and stabilizes the neuronal membrane.…”
