  abstract  = {Since the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic in December 2019 and the associated restrictions, mental health in children and adolescents has been increasingly discussed in the media. Negative impacts of the pandemic, including a sharp increase in psychopathology and, consequently, reduced quality of life, appear to have particularly affected children and young people, who may be especially vulnerable to the adverse effects of isolation. Nevertheless, many children and adolescents have managed to cope well with the restrictions, without deterioration of their mental health. The present study therefore explored the links between COVID-19 infection (in oneself or a family member, as well as the death of a family member due to the virus), protective factors such as self-efficacy, resilience, self-esteem, and health-related quality of life, and measures of psychopathology such as depression scores, internalizing/externalizing problems, emotion dysregulation, and victimization. For this purpose, we examined data from 2129 adolescents (mean age = 12.31, SD = 0.67; 51\% male; 6\% born outside of Germany) using a structural equation model. We found medium to high loadings of the manifest variables with the latent variables (COVID-19, protective factors, and psychopathology). Protective factors showed a significant negative correlation with psychopathology. However, COVID-19 had a weak connection with psychopathology in our sample. External pandemic-related factors (e.g., restrictions) and their interaction with existing psychopathology or individual protective factors appear to have a greater influence on young people's mental health than the impact of the virus per se. Sociopolitical efforts should be undertaken to foster prevention and promote individual resilience, especially in adolescence.},

  abstract  = {With the introduction of new genetic techniques such as genome-wide array comparative genomic hybridization, studies on the putative genetic etiology of schizophrenia have focused on the detection of copy number variants (CNVs), ie, microdeletions and/or microduplications, that are estimated to be present in up to 3\% of patients with schizophrenia. In this study, out of a sample of 100 patients with psychotic disorders, 80 were investigated by array for the presence of CNVs. The assessment of the severity of psychiatric symptoms was performed using standardized instruments and ICD-10 was applied for diagnostic classification. In three patients, a submicroscopic CNV was demonstrated, one with a loss in 1q21.1 and two with a gain in 1p13.3 and 7q11.2, respectively. The association between these or other CNVs and schizophrenia or schizophrenia-like psychoses and their clinical implications still remain equivocal. While the CNV affected genes may enhance the vulnerability for psychiatric disorders via effects on neuronal architecture, these insights have not resulted in major changes in clinical practice as yet. Therefore, genome-wide array analysis should presently be restricted to those patients in whom psychotic symptoms are paired with other signs, particularly dysmorphisms and intellectual impairment.},

  abstract  = {Anhand von drei exemplarischen f{\"a}llen wird. das Krankheitsbild der selbstqu{\"a}lerischen Depression, eine Form der reinen Depressionen Leonhards, dargestellt. Im Zentrum stehen die Ideen der Selbsterniedrigung und Selbstentwertung und der sich daran entwickelnde {\"a}ngstlich-depressive Affekt. Charakteristisch ist auch die Angst um die n{\"a}chsten Angeh{\"o}rigen. In ihren Selbstanklagen erwarten und fordern die Patienten f{\"u}r sich die schrecklichsten Strafen. Diese wenigen Leitsymptome kehren in jeder Krankheitsphase gleichf{\"o}rmig wieder. Andere depressive Symptome wie Denkhemmung und psychomotorische Hemmung treten dagegen v{\"o}llig in den Hintergrund. Der Krankheitsverlauf ist streng monopolar. Die Dauer der Krankheitsphasen wurde von Leonhard mit durchschnittlich 5,8 Monaten angegeben. Sie betrug bei unseren Patienten durchschnittlich 4,1 Monate. Das klinische Erscheinungsbild ist durch moderne Behandlungsstrategien nicht wesentlich zu beeinflussen. Eine famili{\"a}re Belastung mit affektiven Psychosen findet sich nur sehr selten.},
