IntroductionIn the medical field, work addiction is a double-edged phenomenon. It can be regarded as a positive addiction leading to high motivation to work, but it can also have adverse mental, physical, and social consequences.ObjectivesTo assess the relationship between work addiction and perfectionism in trainee doctors.Methods
We conducted a cross-sectional descriptive and analytical study among trainee doctors. We used the “Work Addiction Risk Test” (WART), and “The Big Three perfectionism scale short form”.ResultsA total of 99 doctors were included. The mean age of participants was 27.6 years, with a sex ratio (M/F) of 0.33. The doctors in our study worked 5.39±1.6 hours a day and were on call 3.84±2.87 times a month. Their average number of hours of sleep was less than 7 hours in 43.4 % of participants. The mean score of the WART was 61.2±14.83. Among the trainee doctors surveyed 39% were considered at high risk of workaholism. The mean WART score was significantly higher among female physicians and those who slept less than 7 hours per day on average. In addition, the average score on the WART scale was significantly associated with the number of calls per month. We found a statistically significant association between perfectionism scores and work addiction scores.ConclusionsOur study showed that work addiction is common among doctors in training and is favored by high levels of perfectionism. It is therefore essential to explore and define preventive measures to help them find a balance allowing them to aim for high standards and be able to progress, without setting unrealistic expectations, which can lead to work addiction.Disclosure of InterestNone Declared

Published: August 2024

IntroductionLow back pain (LBP) is common among electricians caused by work conditions. Even when symptoms are short-term and not medically serious, LBP can be associated with psychological distress.ObjectivesThis study aimed to assess the link between LBP and psychological distress according to the job tenure among electricians.Methods
The study was conducted in a group from a Tunisian Electricity society. Data were gathered between January-June 2022 using a self-administered questionnaire including socio-professional characteristics, the Nordic musculoskeletal questionnaire during the last 12 months and Kessler Psychological Distress Scale (K6). Our population was divided into two groups according to job tenure. The first group (G1) consisted of electricians with less than ten years of job tenure and the second (G2) consisted of electricians with more than ten years of seniority.ResultsG1 consisted of 10 participants with a mean age of 30.6 ± 6.7 years and with average job tenure of 3.3 ± 1.1 years. G2 consisted of 64 participants with a mean age of 40.7 ± 10.3 years and average job tenure of 17.4 ± 10.9 years. According to the Nordic musculoskeletal questionnaire, LBP during the last 12 months was present in the first and the second group in 30.8% and 14.3% of participants, respectively.The proportion of respondents with high levels of psychological distress (K6 score of 13 or greater) in the first and the second groups was 10 % and 9.4% of participants, respectively. The presence of low back pain during the last 12 months was significantly associated with a high score of K6 in the second group (p < 0.05).ConclusionsFrom the results of this study, we conclude that LBP was associated with psychological distress when the job tenure is high. Therefore, the prevention of LBP should go through programmes to build ergonomically safe working conditions to enhance the mental health of electricians.Disclosure of InterestNone Declared

Assessment of the Capability of Artificial Intelligence for Psychiatric Diagnosis
Authors: Laherrán N. , Palacios R. , Vázquez A. 
Published: August 2024

IntroductionPsychopathological exploration (PPE) involves an assessment of the mental state of patients, where psychological signs and symptoms are analyzed, which collectively form a syndrome. To conduct this assessment, the clinician must utilize their expertise to identify the presence and authenticity of a series of symptoms that, once recognized, allow for a diagnosis (1). The presence of this subjective component could explain why, despite the continuous growth of artificial intelligence (AI), its application in clinical psychiatry practice remains limited. However, the combination of the clinician&#39;s work with AI could enhance diagnostic accuracy and our understanding of diseases (2).ObjectivesThe objective of this study is to investigate whether AI can make accurate diagnoses through an initial psychopathological evaluation.MethodsA random sample was selected from our medical records of all patients admitted to our acute mental health inpatient unit through the hospital&#39;s emergency services in the year 2022. An anonymized database was created, including sociodemographic information, the results of the psychopathological assessment in the emergency department, and the diagnosis at the time of discharge. The psychopathological assessment conducted in the emergency department was provided to the AI chatbot ChatGPT, with a request to establish a diagnosis according to the DSM-5. Diagnoses such as brief psychotic disorder, schizophreniform disorder, and schizophrenia were considered, given their acute symptom similarities, as well as major depressive disorder (unipolar) and bipolar disorder. The level of agreement between both diagnoses was evaluated using the kappa coefficient.ResultsThe sample consisted of 15 patients, of whom 60% were male, with a mean age of 45 years (standard deviation = 15.6). 73.3% of the patients had prior mental health follow-up, and 66.7% had been previously hospitalized. Diagnoses included psychotic disorder in 33.3% of cases, bipolar disorder with manic episode in 26.7%, depressive disorder in 13.3%, delusional disorder in 13.3%, schizoaffective disorder in 6.7%, and borderline personality disorder in 6.7%. A kappa value of 0.561 was obtained, indicating a moderate degree of agreement between the diagnoses.ConclusionsDespite the inherent subjectivity in psychopathological assessment, this study suggests that AI, in the form of natural language processing chatbots like ChatGPT, can be a useful tool to assist mental health professionals in the diagnostic process. While AI shows promising potential, it should not entirely replace the experience and clinical judgment of mental health professionals. Instead, the importance of potential collaboration between AI and clinicians for achieving more precise and comprehensive diagnoses is highlighted.Disclosure of InterestNone Declared
Dermatitis artefacta in a 60 year old man: a case report
Authors: Setién Preciados P. , Díaz Mayoral C. , Arroyo Sánchez E. 
Published: August 2024

IntroductionDermatitis artefacta (DA), also known as factitial dermatitis, is a condition among factitious disorders, whereby self-induced skin damage is the means used to satisfy a conscious or unconscious desire to assume the sick role, particularly in those with an underlying psychiatric diagnosis or external stress. DA should be distinguished from malingering, in which skin damage may be inflicted for the purpose of secondary gain.ObjectivesReview what dermatitis artefacta and factitious disorders in general consist of and the challenges they present.Methods
Presentation of a patient’s case and review of existing literature, in regards to factitial dermatitis and factitious disorders.Results
In general, in regards to factitious disorders in literature, the majority of patients were female with mean age at presentation at thirty. A healthcare or laboratory profession was reported most frequently, as well as a current or past diagnosis of depression was described more frequently than personality disorder in cases reporting psychiatric comorbidity, and more patients elected to self-induce illness or injury than simulate or falsely report it. Patients were most likely to present with endocrinological, cardiological and dermatological problems. In our patient’s case, common factors described previously are dermatological lesions, comorbid psychiatric disorder and the beginning of the disorder at an earlier age.
Specifically, when it comes to DA, the hallmarks of diagnosis include self-inflicted lesions in accessible areas of the face and extremities that do not correlate with organic disease patterns. Importantly, patients are unable to take ownership of the cutaneous signs.Management in these cases is challenging, and different modalities may be employed, including topical therapies, oral medications, and cognitive behavioural therapy; adopting a multidisciplinary team approach has been shown to be beneficial in allowing patients to come to terms with their illness in an open, non judgmental environment.ConclusionsDA is a rare cutaneous condition that must be considered when the clinical presentation is atypical and investigations do not yield an alternate diagnosis. Few are referred to psychiatric services and even fewer accept care. They have a protracted course, complicated by repeated hospitalizations, ultimately leading to their premature deaths. Clear guidelines on the management of these patients need to be set to protect both patients and providers in light of the ethical and legal considerations.Disclosure of InterestNone Declared
Introduction of Hungarian Association of Psychiatric Trainees - EPA - Hungarian NPA Joint Symposium
Authors: Kupcsik F. 
Published: August 2024

IntroductionThe purpose of my presentation is to introduce the Hungarian Association of Psychiatric Trainees (HAPT), - our NAT - to you, which includes residents and young specialists within five years of training.ObjectivesCurrently we have 108 members, from 15 cities and villages throughout Hungary, and one person is working in Denmark. The vast majority (58 %) of the members are from Budapest, our capital city. There are 14 members, who are young specialists, the others are doing residency training. We have 21 members who are working in child and adolescent psychiatry.HAPT has been existed since 2013, so in the previous years, our founder members have reached the point when they no longer meet the criteria of being ‘psychiatric trainee’ or ‘young specialists’, however every year we encourage the new residents to join us.Methods-ResultsOUR DUTY: The main goals of HAPT are educating ourselves, forming a community and making connections with colleagues country-wide and last but not least, trying to stand up for our interests, when needed.Throughout the year we organize educative presentations about topics that are somehow left out of focus during the official training program. Every year our main event is a three-day long weekend, where we can go deeper into a couple of topics via presentations or workshops, and it is also a great opportunity to get to know each other better.We also organize case-discussion-groups according to the Balint method, considering the residents’ daily difficulties and trying to pay more attention to their mental well-being.Last year we tried some other ways to broaden our perspectives in the form of cultural events, when we watched a movie or a play and then discussed it together as a group, had been led by a psychotherapist.HAPT is part of the Hungarian Psychiatric Association and the relationship between the two Organizations has a constantly changing dynamics – in some ways we are trying to be more independent, however, there are common goals that are important for all of us, for example being present on at international events.ConclusionsFUTURE GOALS: One of our future plans include being more active in the European community, like getting to know the EFPT or the ECP better. This conference is a perfect opportunity for all of us to make new professional connections.Disclosure of InterestNone Declared
“Emotional Intelligence, Psychological Distress, and Conflict Resolution Among Healthcare Professionals”
Authors: Theodoratou M. , Papadopoulos A. 
Published: August 2024

IntroductionEmotional Intelligence (EI) plays a substantial role in shaping the behavior, overall well-being, and performance of individuals. In the context of healthcare, where professionals frequently confront a demanding work environment, there is a notable prevalence of high Psychological Distress (PD). Consequently, conflicts are a recurrent phenomenon within healthcare settings, exerting impacts on healthcare professionals, patients, and their families.ObjectivesAims:1. Investigate the link between Emotional Intelligence (EI) and conflict management among healthcare professionals.2. Examine how Psychological Distress (PD) relates to conflict management in healthcare.3. Explore age, specialization, and experience’s influence on EI dimensions.4. Analyze EI’s impact on healthcare professionals’ conflict resolution choices.5. Assess how demographics affect conflict resolution preferences among healthcare workers.These aims explore EI, PD, demographics, and conflict management in healthcare, informing skill enhancement and improved conflict resolution practices.MethodsThis study involved 143 healthcare professionals from diverse regions of Greece. Electronic surveys gathered demographic data and assessed Emotional Intelligence (via a dedicated questionnaire), Psychological Distress (using the Kessler K6+ questionnaire), and Conflict Resolution strategies.ResultsThe majority of participants were female (69.2%), with 42.7% aged 46-55 and 30.8% aged 36-45. Age was significantly associated with “Self-awareness” (P=0.032) and “Social Skills” (P=0.009 and 0.007) within Emotional Intelligence dimensions. Negative correlations emerged between Psychological Distress and Emotional Intelligence dimensions (-0.46 to -0.19). Additionally, Psychological Distress showed negative correlations with several Conflict Resolution dimensions: ‘Atmosphere’ (-0.20), ‘Doables’ (-0.28), ‘Mutual Benefit Agreements’ (-0.18), ‘Needs’ (-0.23), and ‘Extra Considerations’ (-0.27). Participants below 35 had higher scores in “Power” (p=0.002), while those aged 46 and above scored higher in “Options” (p=0.002 and 0.009) for conflict resolution.ConclusionsIn summary, this study underscores EI’s relevance in healthcare, especially its influence on PD and conflict resolution. Developing EI competencies offers promise for improving healthcare professionals’ emotional well-being and conflict-handling abilities, ultimately benefiting patient care and staff satisfaction. Further research and tailored interventions are warranted to advance this field at an academic level.Disclosure of InterestNone Declared
Temporal Dynamics of Depressive Symptoms and Cognitive Decline in the Oldest Old: Dynamic Time Warp analysis of the Leiden 85-plus Study

Published: August 2024

IntroductionThe prevalence of depressive symptoms and cognitive decline increases with age, reducing quality of life. However, the temporal relationship between the two remains elusive.ObjectivesWe aimed to explore the temporal relationship between depressive symptoms and cognitive decline in individuals aged 85 years, during up to 5 years follow-up.MethodsParticipants eligible for this study were selected from the Leiden 85-plus Study, who participated for at least 3 follow-up measurements. Depressive symptoms were assessed at baseline and at follow-up in a period of 6 yearly assessments, utilizing the 15-item Geriatric Depression Scale (GDS-15). Cognitive decline was measured through various tests including the Mini Mental State Exam (MMSE), Stroop Test, Letter Digit Coding Test, and immediate and delayed recall using the 12-word learning test. Dynamic Time Warping (DTW) analysis was employed to model their temporal dynamics, in undirected and directed analysis, to ascertain whether depressive symptoms precede cognitive decline, or vice versa.ResultsThe study included a total of 325 (54.2%) of 599 patients, of whom 68.0% were female, 45.0% with intermediate to higher education, and all aged 85 years. Depressive symptoms and cognitive functioning significantly covaried in time, and directed analyses showed that depressive symptoms preceded most of the parameters of cognitive decline in the oldest old. Of the 15 GDS symptoms, those with the strongest outstrength were worthlessness, hopelessness, low happiness, dropping activities/interests, and low satisfaction with life (all p<.01).ConclusionsWe found a strong temporal link between depressive symptoms and subsequent cognitive decline in a population of the oldest old. This highlights the importance of a holistic approach that considers both mental and cognitive well-being in the aging population. As depressive symptoms were an early indicator of cognitive decline, it is of importance that healthcare professionals recognize and address depressive symptoms early to allow for appropriate interventions and support, to potentially mitigate the impact on cognitive decline.Disclosure of InterestNone Declared
