“…The majority of publications comparing DSM-IV to DSM-5 report no differences (Carmassi et al, 2013; Elhai, Ford, Ruggiero, & Christopher Frueh, 2009; Elhai et al, 2012; Gentes et al, 2014; Kilpatrick et al, 2013; Miller et al, 2013; O’Donnell et al, 2014), with the exception of Forbes et al (2011) who found lower PTSD prevalence under DSM-5. Of those who reported consistency (Carmassi et al, 2013; Elhai et al, 2009; Gentes et al, 2014; Kilpatrick et al, 2013), all reported satisfying high agreement between both versions of the DSM. Comparing the proposed ICD-11 to DSM-IV criteria, Stammel, Abbing, Heeke, and Knaevelsrud (2015) reported reduced PTSD prevalence according to the proposed ICD-11 criteria.…”

“…Whereas Stein et al (2014) found no differences in PTSD prevalence at all, O’Donnell et al (2014) reported no differences between DSM-5 and DSM-IV, but lower PTSD prevalence under the proposed ICD-11 compared to DSM-IV, DSM-5, and ICD-10. Notably, although interpretation of prevalence differences between different diagnostic systems is limited when no consistency is reported, analyses of agreement between the diagnostic systems are provided only by some authors (Carmassi et al, 2013; Elhai et al, 2009; Gentes et al, 2014; Kilpatrick et al, 2013; Morina et al, 2014; Stammel et al, 2015). …”

Background: Recently, changes have been introduced to the diagnostic criteria for posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) according to the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM) and the International Classification of Diseases (ICD). Objectives:This study investigated the effect of the diagnostic changes made from DSM-IV to DSM-5 and from ICD-10 to the proposed ICD-11. The concordance of provisional PTSD prevalence between the diagnostic criteria was examined in a convenience sample of 100 members of the German Armed Forces. Method: Based on questionnaire measurements, provisional PTSD prevalence was assessed according to DSM-IV, DSM-5, ICD-10, and proposed ICD-11 criteria. Consistency of the diagnostic status across the diagnostic systems was statistically evaluated. Results: Provisional PTSD prevalence was the same for DSM-IV and DSM-5 (both 56%) and comparable under DSM-5 versus ICD-11 proposal (48%). Agreement between DSM-IV and DSM-5, and between DSM-5 and the proposed ICD-11, was high (both p < .001). Provisional PTSD prevalence was significantly increased under ICD-11 proposal compared to ICD-10 (30%) which was mainly due to the deletion of the time criterion. Agreement between ICD-10 and the proposed ICD-11 was low (p = .014). Conclusion: This study provides preliminary evidence for a satisfactory concordance between provisional PTSD prevalence based on the diagnostic criteria for PTSD that are defined using DSM-IV, DSM-5, and proposed ICD-11. This supports the assumption of a set of PTSD core symptoms as suggested in the ICD-11 proposal, when at the same time a satisfactory concordance between ICD-11 proposal and DSM was given. The finding of increased provisional PTSD prevalence under ICD-11 proposal in contrast to ICD-10 can be of guidance for future epidemiological research on PTSD prevalence, especially concerning further investigations on the impact, appropriateness, and usefulness of the time criterion included in ICD-10 versus the consequences of its deletion as proposed for ICD-11.

“…Growing evidence suggests that psychosocial factors, such as depression, which have been linked to cardiovascular risk more broadly, are also associated with VTE risk in particular 9, 10. The majority of individuals in the general population (at least 60% according to most studies11, 12) are exposed to 1 or more traumatic events (eg, sexual assault, physical assault, combat, natural disasters) during their lifetime. Posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a psychological consequence of exposure to such traumatic events, and is characterized by symptoms of re‐experiencing of the trauma, avoidance of trauma reminders, negative alterations in mood and thinking, and hyperarousal.…”

BackgroundTrauma exposure and posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) have been linked to myocardial infarction and stroke in women, with biological and behavioral mechanisms implicated in underlying risk. The third most common cardiovascular illness, venous thromboembolism (VTE), is a specific health risk for women. Given previous associations with other cardiovascular diseases, we hypothesized that high levels of trauma and PTSD symptoms would be associated with higher risk of incident VTE in younger and middle‐aged women.Methods and ResultsWe used proportional hazards models to estimate hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% CIs for new‐onset VTE (960 events) over 22 years in 49 296 women in the Nurses’ Health Study II. Compared to no trauma exposure, both trauma exposure and PTSD symptoms were significantly associated with increased risk of developing VTE, adjusting for demographics, family history, and childhood adiposity. Women with the most PTSD symptoms exhibited the greatest risk elevation: trauma/6 to 7 symptoms: HR=2.42 (95% CI, 1.83–3.20); trauma/4 to 5 symptoms: HR=2.00 (95% CI, 1.55–2.59); trauma/1 to 3 symptoms: HR=1.44 (95% CI, 1.12–1.84); trauma/no symptoms: HR=1.72 (95% CI, 1.43–2.08). Results were similar, although attenuated, when adjusting for VTE‐relevant medications, medical conditions, and health behaviors.ConclusionsWomen with the highest PTSD symptom levels had nearly a 2‐fold increased risk of VTE compared to women without trauma exposure in fully adjusted models. Trauma exposure alone was also associated with elevated VTE risk. Trauma and PTSD symptoms may be associated with a hypercoagulable state. Treatment providers should be aware that women with trauma exposure and PTSD symptoms may be vulnerable to VTE.

“…A majority (60–90%) of individuals will experience a traumatic event in their lifetime (Kessler et al, 2017; Kilpatrick et al, 2013; Thordardottir et al, 2015). While most individuals adjust to the trauma and recover from the emotional strain that follows, it remains unexplained why some suffer more than others and experience mental health decline, even to the point of suicidal risk .…”

Background: Traumatic life events have been associated with increased risk of various psychiatric disorders, even suicidality. Our aim was to investigate the association between different traumatic life events and suicidality, by type of event and gender. Methods: Women attending a cancer screening programme in Iceland (n = 689) and a random sample of men from the general population (n = 709) were invited to participate. In a web-based questionnaire, life events were assessed with the Life Stressor Checklist – Revised, and the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fifth Edition (DSM-5) criterion was used to identify traumatic life events. Reports of lifetime suicidal thoughts, self-harm with suicidal intent and suicide attempt were considered as lifetime suicidality. We used Poisson regression, adjusted for demographic factors, to express relative risks (RRs) as a measure of the associations between traumatic events and suicidality. Results: Response rate was 66% (922/1398). The prevalence of lifetime traumatic events was 76% among women and 77% among men. Lifetime suicidality was 11% among women and 16% among men. An overall association of having experienced traumatic life events with suicidality was observed [RR 2.05, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.21–3.75], with a stronger association for men (RR 3.14, 95% CI 1.25–7.89) than for women (RR 1.45, 95% CI 0.70–2.99). Increased likelihood for suicidality was observed among those who had experienced interpersonal trauma (RR 2.97, 95% CI 1.67–5.67), childhood trauma (RR 4.09, 95% CI 2.27–7.36) and sexual trauma (RR 3.44, 95% CI 1.85–6.37), with a higher likelihood for men. In addition, an association between non-interpersonal trauma and suicidality was noted among men (RR 3.27, 95% CI 1.30–8.25) but not women (RR 1.27, 95% CI 0.59–2.70). Conclusion: Findings indicate that traumatic life events are associated with suicidality, especially among men, with the strongest association for interpersonal trauma.
