The article is based on the concept of forming various stress-related disorders in crisis situations. It is proved that destructive informational effects in modern conditions are an integral part in the formation of crisis situation syndromes and posttraumatic stress disorder. In the course of research, the possibility of using the system of biological markers for timely detection and effective treatment of stress-associated and informational disorders was established (before other clinical symptoms or their reaching diagnostic threshold). It also allows timely assessment of the subjective adaptation threshold of people at risk, to identify and reduce the negative effects of stress-related disorders. The use of the biomarkers was also researched for the diagnosis, treatment, rehabilitation, prevention of stress-related disorders among participants of crisis situations.

Composite Scale

The aim of this study was to examine the effect of posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) on (a) neuropsychological test performance and (b) self-reported emotional complaints within individuals suffering from postconcussional disorder (PCD) after a mild traumatic brain injury (MTBI). A two-group comparative research design was employed. Two MTBI samples with and without PTSD were assessed with a neuropsychological test battery and the Ruff Neurobehavioral Inventory (RNBI). On the neurocognitive test performances no significant between group differences were found, but the MTBI group with PTSD endorsed a significantly greater number of emotional complaints, especially in the RNBI subscales of anxiety and depression. The patients with PTSD also endorsed a significantly greater number of premorbid sequelae in the RNBI emotional composite scale as well as the RNBI premorbid subscales of pain, anxiety and abuse. In sum, PTSD has a negative impact on emotional but not cognitive functioning within individuals suffering from PCD after a mild TBI.
