Welcome

Your amygdala and orbitofrontal cortex have just been activated. Simmons WK Cerebral Cortex 15(10):1602-08

This wiki is an educational resource for residents and fellows training to become Board-certified psychiatrists. The purpose of this wiki is to develop content that is clinically useful and helpful for the PRITE and Boards preparation.

This is a collaborative project of learnpsychiatry.org brought to you by residents and fellows of UMDNJ and LIJ/North Shore hospitals. Read more about the project here.

What's New

  • All you need to know about atomoxetine, including the results of a comprehensive meta-analysis.
  • DSM-5 changes to diagnosing substance use disorders are confusing. See a visual summary of changes to the criteria here.
  • Cooper-Simpson Test helps start lithium therapy faster on an inpatient unit. Did you know that the test can be used in children?

DSM 5 update

DSM-5 is finally here. However the PRITE and Psychiatry Boards are a little behind, so don't recycle the dull, grey, sleep-inducing tome just yet.

  • PRITE will begin transition to DSM-5 next year - 2014 (some DSM-IV terminology will still be used); transition will be complete in 2015.
  • American Board of Psychiatry and Neurology (ABPN) will continue to use DSM IV through 2016. In 21017 it will switch to DSM 5.

Tips on editing

When editing, please include only information that can be considered evidence-based medicine, as it is frequently tested and always clinically relevant. Feel free to leave comments in the article discussion pages as well. When creating new articles, please include a category at the end of your article, so that our wiki remains organized. (If you are not sure what that means, add this text [[Category:Content]] to the article you are writing. It will add the article to the "Content" category. You can browse the category here.
