The purpose of this article is to describe the amendments made in the new version of DSM (fifth edition) as to understand not only main aspects of certain diseases and/or personality disorders, but also whether or not changes shifted focus to dimensional instead of categorical system or if in some aspects both are considered. Moving forward from a general overview of the handbook, the effective changes will be examined in detail. Attention will also be given to Personality Diseases, taking account of various studies on this subject and the most recent knowledge on “Borderline Disease” from a diagnostic standpoint. Considering the complex construction of such disease, will be firstly illustrated the assumption of first studies so as to cover the most recent clinical and theoretical contributions, together with a brief overview of some treatment approach such as psychodynamic, cognitive-behavioral and systemic-relational, principles of medical treatment, a summary on differential diagnosis and a representation of some clinical case as well. The article will be concluded by a brief discussion of future prospects able to provide the clinician with even more effective and safe operational strategies as to lead professionals towards more specific and less misleading assumptions for a better approach in any scope (therapeutic, forensic, etc.) and giving comfort to those who receive support as well. Everyone is a very unique individual, even if similar to others. That is why it is extremely important to clearly identify a disease and ensure an adequate treatment. RiassuntoL’obiettivo del presente lavoro, è quello  di descrivere le principali modifiche apportate nella nuova versione del DSM (quinta ed.) rispetto a quella precedente, per cercare di comprendere non solo gli aspetti  più significativi di determinate Patologie e/o Disturbi della Personalità, ma anche se nei suindicati cambiamenti, l’ottica si è spostata o meno ad un sistema dimensionale piuttosto che categoriale o se in alcuni aspetti, vengono considerati entrambi, partendo quindi da una panoramica generale sul Manuale, per poi affrontare nel dettaglio le reali modifiche. Verrà inoltre approfondita la tematica relativa ai Disturbi della Personalità, tenendo presenti  i vari studi e ricerche sull’argomento e quindi le acquisizioni più recenti in termini di strumenti operativi utili da un punto di vista diagnostico-clinico, con particolare riferimento al “Disturbo Borderline”, decisamente complesso nel suo costrutto, partendo dall’assunto relativo ai primi studi sul tema, fino a giungere ai vari contributi teorico-clinici più recenti, unitamente ai cenni su alcuni approcci terapeutici quali ad esempio, psicodinamico, cognitivo-comportamentale e sistemico-relazionale, principi sulla farmacoterapia ed una sintesi sulla diagnosi differenziale, nonché la rappresentazione di alcuni Casi clinici. Concludendo con un sintetico excursus su quelle che potrebbero essere le prospettive future in grado di fornire strategie operative sempre più fertili e sicure per il clinico, sia a conforto dello stesso che di chi usufruisce dell’aiuto, guidando gli operatori verso ipotesi più specifiche e meno devianti, per un migliore approccio in qualsiasi ambito di applicazione (terapeutico, forense ecc..). Ogni soggetto è un individuo a se stante, pur evidenziando caratteristiche simili. Per questo è estremamente importante per quanto più è possibile, riuscire nell’individuazione di una precisa patologia su cui va applicato un mirato processo trattamentale. ResumenEl propósito de este artículo es describir las enmiendas hechas en la nueva versión del DSM (quinta edición) para comprender no solo los aspectos principales de ciertas enfermedades y / o trastornos de la personalidad, sino también si los cambios cambiaron el enfoque a dimensional en lugar de categórico sistema o si en algunos aspectos se consideran ambos. Avanzando desde una descripción general del manual, los cambios efectivos serán examinados en detalle. También se prestará atención a las enfermedades de la personalidad, teniendo en cuenta varios estudios sobre este tema y el conocimiento más reciente sobre "Enfermedad límite" desde un punto de vista diagnóstico. Teniendo en cuenta la compleja construcción de dicha enfermedad, se ilustrará en primer lugar la suposición de los primeros estudios para cubrir las contribuciones clínicas y teóricas más recientes, junto con una breve descripción de algunos enfoques de tratamiento, tales como psicodinámico, cognitivo-conductual y sistémico-relacional, principios del tratamiento médico, un resumen sobre diagnóstico diferencial y una representación de algunos casos clínicos también. El artículo concluirá con una breve discusión de las perspectivas futuras capaces de proporcionar al clínico estrategias operativas aún más efectivas y seguras para guiar a los profesionales hacia suposiciones más específicas y menos engañosas para un mejor enfoque en cualquier ámbito (terapéutico, forense, etc.). y dar consuelo a quienes también reciben apoyo. Todos son individuos únicos, incluso si son similares a los demás. Por eso es extremadamente importante identificar claramente una enfermedad y garantizar un tratamiento adecuado.

Movie script is a narrative literary wok that has intrinsic elements in it, that the intrinsic elements are theme, setting, point of view, plot, moral value, and last but not least are character and characterization. Movie script that are visualized into movies are categorized as modern dramas. Nowdays, the movie is used as a medium of entertainment and as a medium for delivering messages. This research aims to find two things, that is the personality disorders experienced by the main character in “Inside Out” movie script by Pete Docter. In this research, the researcher uses Sigmun Freud’s psychoanalytic theory (1923), and assisted by other supporting theories. The result of the research found that there were eight types of personality disorders of ten types of personality disorders. This research uses DSM-V (2013) as a reference for discussion of personality disorders.Keywords: Personality Disorder, Main Character, Inside Out Movie, Riley, Author, Dialogue, Narration.

Acetoin is an important four-carbon compound that has many applications in foods, chemical synthesis, cosmetics, cigarettes, soaps, and detergents. Its stereoisomer (S)-acetoin, a high-value chiral compound, can also be used to synthesize optically active drugs, which could enhance targeting properties and reduce side effects. Recently, considerable progress has been made in the development of biotechnological routes for (S)-acetoin production. In this review, various strategies for biological (S)- acetoin production are summarized, and their constraints and possible solutions are described. Furthermore, future prospects of biological production of (S)-acetoin are discussed.

Within the field of Economics there is great interest in predicting the future. In creating Economic Models the rationale has been to create fixed equations that can account for all variables associated with the issues of capital, labor, wages, prices, tariffs and taxes but few models explored the human variable. Probability Statistics bases decision making models upon mathematical predictions. Game Theory is an economic model that begins to explain the rationale of human decision making, but fails to account for flawed thinking and pathology. Relational Dynamics attempts to provide a means of understanding the strategies used in communication and decision making. Within humanity, not all decisions are made rationally and to account for illogical choices, psychology has provided theories of pathology to explain human idiosyncrasies. This paper will explore personality disorders as described by the DSM V and Relational Dynamics in an attempt to understand how pathology influences relationships, decision making and behavioral economics.

Abstract Lilium is one of the most popular flower crops worldwide, and some species are also used as vegetables and medicines. The availability of and easy access to diverse Lilium genetic resources are essential for plant genetic improvements. Cryopreservation is currently considered as an ideal means for the long-term preservation of plant germplasm. Over the last two decades, great efforts have been exerted in studies of Lilium cryopreservation and progress has been made in the successful cryopreservation of pollen, seeds and shoot tips in Lilium. Genes that exist in Lilium, including those that regulate flower shape, color and size, and that are resistant to cold stress and diseases caused by fungi and viruses, provide a rich source of valuable genetic resources for breeding programs to create novel cultivars required by the global floriculture and ornamental markets. Successful cryopreservation of Lilium spp. is a way to preserve these valuable genes. The present study provides updated and comprehensive information about the development of techniques that have advanced Lilium cryopreservation. Further ideas are proposed to better direct future studies on Lilium cryobiotechnology.

In recent years, great progress has been made in hypernuclear physics through new experimental techniques as well as theoretical development. Precision γ-ray spectroscopy of hypernuclei has revealed fine structure of various light Λ hypernuclei. Introduction of the (π-, K+) reaction has opened a possibility of studying neutron-rich Λ hypernuclei. The J-PARC facility will allow us to accelerate these experimental studies of Λ hypernuclei and extend hypernuclear physics to double strangess nuclear systems.

Many psychiatrists have reconceptualized borderline personality disorder (BPD) as a variant of bipolar disorder and, consistent with the treatment of bipolar disorder, emphasize the use of mood stabilizers and atypical antipsychotics in treatment. This change in diagnostic practice is unfortunate. BPD is a distinct diagnostic construct, and clients who fit this pattern require a fundamentally different treatment approach than what is typically recommended for bipolar disorder. The purpose of this article is to update counselors on the expansion of bipolar disorder in the psychiatric literature, present evidence for the validity of BPD, discuss strategies for the differential diagnosis of it from bipolar disorder, review proposed changes in DSM-V, and integrate the literature into a mental health counseling framework.

Morningness-eveningness (M/E) is an important variable in individual differences and has an impact on many areas of life including general and mental health. In previous work eveningness has shown to correlate to personality disorders (PDs) and mental instability such as psychoticism, depression, and bipolar disorders. Therefore, a relationship between M/E and PDs can be assumed but has never been tested. The aim of this study was to assess a possible relationship between DSM-5-PDs and circadian timing (chronotype; M/E). We used the Morningness-Eveningness Stability Scale improved and clock time-based measurements, the PID-5 brief version, and the Big Five brief version. Sample: N = 630; mean age: 27.76 years, SD: 11.36 years; 137 male, 489 female, 4 diverse. In this short screening a relationship between eveningness and DSM-5-personality traits, (evening-oriented participants showing a higher PID-5 score: morningness -0.208/p < 0.001; eveningness: 0.153/p < 0.001) was found. Moreover, participants with high levels of distinctness (fluctuations of the perceived energy level during the day) are prone to PDs too, with distinctness being the best predictor for a high PID-5 score in this sample (0.299/p < 0.001). In the regression analysis, neuroticism, agreeableness, conscientiousness, and extraversion contributed significantly to the model with higher scores on extraversion, agreeableness and conscientiousness being related to lower scores on the PID-5. Neuroticism was positively related to PID-5 scores. Later midpoint of sleep (higher eveningness) was associated with higher PID-5 scores, as were higher fluctuations/amplitude during the day.
