    Abstract Secondary psychiatric symptoms are usually suspected when there is an atypical presentation of the symptoms or a lack of response to psychotropic medication.
    Case presentation: Our case is about a woman aged 62 years old, with a history of mental disorder who presented psychiatric symptomatology after years of being stabilized by antipsychotics. She was later investigated due to a mass in her breast. Carcinoma was diagnosed, and her psychiatric symptomatology was resolved after the tumerectomy.
    Discussion: The therapeutic difficulty is the major problem of psychic disorders in the context of paraneoplastic syndrome. Several literature review have suggested a relationship between schizophrenia and antineuronal antibodies in the context of paraneoplastic syndrome. Treating the tumor can solve psychiatric symptoms better than psychotic treatment.
    Conclusions: The aim of our study is to highlight the importance of a complete medical evaluation to identify the psychiatric presentations of organic disorders associated with psychiatric manifestation and to ensure an early diagnosis.

    Abstract Background: Sexuality is a natural component of human behavior. The general population has been extensively studied since the first half of the 20th century. On the other hand, regarding patients treated for schizophrenia, discussing sexual disorders was initially considered inappropriate because it was believed they should not be sexually active. Given these findings, this work proposes to study the sexuality of patients with schizophrenia.
    Objectives: Our objectives were to assess the sexuality of patients with schizophrenia, to identify factors associated with sexual dysfunction among these patients, and to determine practitioners' attitudes toward the sexuality of our study population.
    Methods: This is a cross-sectional study carried out in the Psychiatry Department of Kairouan (outpatient department), including 46 patients diagnosed with schizophrenia. A pre-established information sheet was completed for each patient recruited, including sociodemographic and clinical data; on the other hand, 3 scales ensured a sexual psychometric evaluation: Psychotropic-Related Sexual Dysfunction Questionnaire, Arizona Sexual Experiences Scale, and Changes in Sexual Functioning Questionnaire-Male Clinical Version.
    Results: Concerning the evaluation of sexuality according to the scales used, sexual dysfunction according to Psychotropic-Related Sexual Dysfunction Questionnaire scores was observed in 31 patients (67.4%). According to Arizona Sexual Experiences Scale scores, 24 patients (52%) had a sexual dysfunction, and for the total score of the Changes in Sexual Functioning Questionnaire-Male Clinical Version, 27 patients (58.7%) had a sexual dysfunction. We cannot confirm the existence of a relationship between the dose of the current treatment (in chlorpromazine equivalent) used and the results of the test assessing sexuality. In addition to these results, we can deduce the existence of a statistically significant association between the antipsychotic agent used and the results of the Psychotropic-Related Sexual Dysfunction Questionnaire only.
    Conclusions: We recommend that screening for sexual dysfunction in patients followed for schizophrenia should be systematic, regardless of the antipsychotic molecule type and dosage. In this regard, we recommend the establishment of a better therapeutic relationship between caregivers and patients with schizophrenia, based on empathy and trust, so that the latter feel comfortable enough to address the sexual dimension in general and sexual dysfunction in particular.

  6. Article: "To fast or not to fast?" Ramadan and religiosity through the eyes of people with bipolar disorder: an exploratory study.

    Abstract Background: The month of Ramadan, due to its changes in social rhythms, can seriously affect the course of bipolar disorder (BD). Therefore, psychiatrists sometimes find it necessary to discourage Ramadan practices, especially fasting, although taking part in this practice can give a sense of belonging and accomplishment to patients. Research on this subject is limited.
    Aim: The aim of the present work was to explore: (i) religious practices with special attention to Ramadan before and after the onset of BD, (ii) the perceptions and behaviors related to not fasting during Ramadan in patients with BD and their families' attitudes, (iii) religiosity and self-stigmatization and their relationships with religious practices, and (iv) the doctor-patient relationship around fasting.
    Methods: We conducted a retrospective, cross-sectional and descriptive study in clinically stabilized patients with BD in a public mental hospital and in a private psychiatric practice in Tunis, Tunisia. Socio-demographic and clinical data, as well as data related to general religious practices and Ramadan practices were collected using a self-established questionnaire. We assessed (i) religiosity of the patients with the Duke University Religion Index and (ii) self-stigma using the Internalized Stigma of Mental Illness scale.
    Results: Our sample consisted of 118 patients of whom 65.3% were fasting regularly before BD onset. More than half had stopped this practice following BD onset. Of the patients who did not fast, 16% felt guilty about this and 4.9% reported receiving negative remarks from their surroundings. High self-stigma scores were observed in 11% of the patients. Self-stigma was associated significantly with negative perception of not fasting, negative remarks regarding not fasting and taking both meals at regular times during Ramadan. The decision whether to fast or not was taken without seeking medical advice in 71.2% of the sample, and 16.9% of the sample reported that their psychiatrist had spontaneously approached the issue of Ramadan fasting.
    Conclusion: Religiosity and more specifically the practice of Ramadan remains an important point that should be considered when treating patients with psychiatric problems. It seems necessary that healthcare professionals should integrate the positive and the negative side of fasting into their reflections. Our results remain exploratory and encourage further work on the subject.

    Abstract Objectives: Mental illness affects one in eight people in the world according to the WHO. It is a leading cause of morbidity and a major public health problem. Stigma harms the quality of life of people with mental illness. This study aimed at validating the Arabic version of the Mental Health Knowledge Schedule (MAKS) and the Reported and Intended Behavior Scale (RIBS) in a sample of Tunisian students and determining socio-demographic and clinical factors correlated with stigma.
    Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted on 2,501 Tunisian students who filled in the MAKS, the RIBS, and a sociodemographic and clinical questionnaire. The validation of the questionnaires in Arabic was carried out using the validity criteria: face and content validity, reliability, and construct validity. Next, the associations between stigma and sample characteristics have been studied using multivariate linear regression.
    Results: Face and content validity of the measures MAKS and RIBS were satisfactory, with adequate internal consistency. There were significant positive correlations between the items and scales, and test-retest reliability was excellent. The internal validity showed that the items were well-aligned with the intended factors, and the external validity revealed a significant positive relationship between the MAKS and RIBS. Besides, gender, the field of study, psychiatric history, and contact with someone with a mental illness were all contributing factors to mental illness stigma. Additionally, men performed better than women in terms of behavior toward people with mental illness, while women had a greater level of knowledge about mental health.
    Conclusion: The Arabic versions of the MAKS and RIBS have appropriate psychometric properties, making them effective tools for evaluating mental illness stigma. With multiple factors contributing to this issue, these instruments can help focus anti-stigma efforts and promote a more inclusive society.

    Abstract Introduction: In spite of several approaches and therapeutic measures, treatment-resistant depression (TRD) continues to inflict serious, individual and collective consequences. Therefore, there is a persistent need to scrutinize the concept of TRD in order to adapt the therapeutic strategies.
    Aim: To estimate the incidence of TRD in patients with a first major depressive episode (MDD), and study factors associated with resistance.
    Methods: A descriptive prospective longitudinal study of outpatients with a first MDD, was conducted. Patients with a history of subthreshold hypomania were excluded. Eligible patients were put on a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI), either fluoxetine or sertraline. Participants were followed regularly until they had a therapeutic response or they met the criteria for TRD.
    Results: The study involved 82 adults. The incidence of treatment-resistant depression was 19.4% CI95%=[5.5-33.3]. Among the sociodemographic and clinical factors, family history of psychosis (p=0.038) and chronic respiratory comorbidities (p=0.016) were associated with TRD. The small size of the sample is a potential limitation of this study. Besides, the use of only two SSRIs could influence the results.
    Conclusion: In this study, the incidence of TRD was at the lower limit of the rates reported in clinical studies. Clinical factors associated with TRD suggest the relevance of genotype analysis to identify patients with TRD. Furthermore, our results highlight the importance of heeding comorbidities to optimize care. Larger multicenter studies are needed to generalize.

    Abstract Neuropsychiatric manifestations in Sjögren's syndrome are common and can occur not only during its course, but also at the onset of the disease. Depression and anxiety were the most frequently described symptoms. However, the association with bipolar disorder seems to be rare and not well documented. This case report presents a patient with bipolar disorder as comorbidity with Sjögren's syndrome, suggesting that bipolar disorder could be associated with this autoimmune disease, which could lead to delaying diagnosis and treatment. A better analysis of the clinical background should be done by psychiatrists so to help early diagnosis and adapting prescription. Corticosteroids indicated in Sjögren's syndrome should be prescribed with caution in bipolar disorder.
