DETAILED CASE HISTORIES

We report the treatment of a family in which both spouses developed panic disorder, and their son school phobia, soon after the death of a close relative. The interactional style observed within this family suggested that interpersonal factors were important in the generation of anxiety in each member. Detailed case histories such as the one we report underscore the importance of a systemic perspective when assessing individuals who present with anxiety disorders.

The Impact

The purpose of this study was to fill a gap in existing literature on scholar-administrators and understand the lived experience of scholar-administrators who published. Using an interpretative phenomenological approach to extract themes from detailed case studies of five senior academic administrators who have published, the researchers’ empirical inferences from the five detailed case histories reveal the challenges and rewards of producing scholarship as a scholar-administrator. Their findings show that the administrators were more connected to the people within and outside the university, their own field of practice, and with the university. The impact of scholarship on scholar-administrators goes beyond publications. Continuation of being a scholar-practitioner has significant impact on networking scope of administrators keeping the educational entities they lead abreast of environmental trends to adapt to. Future research should replicate our study to increase the generalizability of its findings.

Overdose Deaths

Abstract The detection of fentanyl and fentanyl analogs has been widely communicated throughout the scientific community. While most of the reporting has been in relation to overdose deaths, these drugs are commonly detected in impaired driving cases. A retrospective study of impaired driving cases analyzed between 2017 and 2019 produced 270 cases positive for fentanyl, carfentanil, and/or acetylfentanyl. Fentanyl was the predominant drug found in these 270 cases (65.5%) with concentrations ranging from less than 1.0 ng/mL to 64 ng/mL. Carfentanil was found alone in 6.6% cases with three concentrations above 1.0 ng/mL. Acetylfentanyl was always found when fentanyl was positive with concentrations ranging from less than 1.0 ng/mL to 9.2 ng/mL. Detailed case histories are provided with corresponding toxicology results. Toxicology results show impaired drivers using multiple drugs with a wide range of observed behaviors. The inclusion of these drugs in routine impaired driver toxicology testing is extremely important when attempting to determine their overall prevalence.

Psychosomatic Aspects

In December, 1961, a symposium concerning the psychosomatic aspects of asthma in childhood was held at Downstate Medical Center, State University of New York, College of Medicine. That symposium forms the basis of this book, in which 18 authors, mainly psychiatrists, have contributed to a survey of the psychiatric knowledge of the asthmatic child. Detailed case histories are included in 10 of the 15 papers that comprise this volume. These histories provide interesting and generally well-written vignettes of certain asthmatic children. In many cases the mother-child relationships are manifestly disturbed.

Mass Lesions

This is a comprehensive monograph dealing with mass lesions of the spinal axis in childhood. Although the title reads "Intraspinal Tumors of Childhood," the authors have included their experience with 64 tumors and 8 non-tumors; the latter include vascular anomalies, herniated intervertebral disks, a dermal sinus and an extradural cyst. They state in their introduction that the latter are included because they gave symptoms closely simulating those of tumors of the spinal cord. Although this book is 560 pages in length, much of the text is taken up with detailed case histories, not only of the 72 patients in the author's series but also of many from the literature. The book is profusely and beautifully illustrated with clinical, roentgenographic, operative, and gross and microscopic pathological photographs.
