The present case is of a 14-year-old female with trichotillomania (TTM) that was treated with a low dose of aripiprazole (ARP) 1.5 mg/day. To our knowledge, this is the first published report to show an improvement of pubertal TTM using an ultra-low dose of ARP. In this case, a 50-mg fluvoxamine monotherapy for 2 years and a subsequent 4-month comprehensive cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) mo...

In DSM-IV-TR, trichotillomania (TTM) is classified as an impulse control disorder (not classified elsewhere), skin picking lacks its own diagnostic category (but might be diagnosed as an impulse control disorder not otherwise specified), and stereotypic movement disorder is classified as a disorder usually first diagnosed in infancy, childhood, or adolescence. ICD-10 classifies TTM as a habit a...

BACKGROUND Out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) is one of the leading causes of intensive care unit admission, which results in high hospital mortality. Targeted temperature management (TTM) was introduced several years ago and is considered to improve neurological and mortality outcomes. This management process was implemented in our hospital in 2012, which was expected to improve the standar...

Alopecia areata (AA) is a common dermatological disease characterized by patchy areas of nonscarring alopecia. Sometimes, differentiating patchy AA from trichotillomania (TTM) can be difficult. We report a case of AA mimicking TTM.

A fast encryption system (TTM) will be discussed in this article. TTM is an encryp-tion system based on multivariate tame automorphisms over some small eld. It is related to an open and diicult problem in mathematics. The TTM system is 100 or more faster than RSA 1024 and the corresponding ECC. In 11] and 12], the mathematical part of the system is provided. However, the presentation there is q...

We have previously hypothesized that ring-opened metabolites may play an important role in benzene toxicity. In this paper we review recent work related to this hypothesis. trans,trans-Muconaldehyde (TTM), a six-carbon diene dialdehyde, was shown by our laboratory to be a microsomal metabolite of benzene. This compound is a ring-opened metabolite of benzene that is hematotoxic in mice. The toxi...

The transtheoretical model (TTM) is a behavioural theory that describes behaviour change as occurring in five stages, ranging from precontemplation to maintenance. The purpose of the present paper is to review and synthesise the literature published since 1999 on applications of the TTM to dietary behaviour so that the evidence for the use of assessment tools and interventions based on this mod...

To explore hepatoprotective role and underlying mechanisms of Trillium tschonoskii Maxim (TTM), 36 rats were randomly divided into control, CCl4-induced liver injury model, and biphenyl dimethyl dicarboxylate (DDB) and low-, moderate-, and high-dose TTM treatment groups. After CCl4-induced model establishment, the rats from DDB and TTM groups were administrated with DDB at 0.2 g/kg per day and ...

As part of this tradition, a significant number of historical pharmac...

This paper outlines the efforts to introduce a proven GSS into two similar organizational contexts over a oneyear period. The installations, and subsequent technology transitions took place aboard two different US Navy ships. Using the principles of action research, the project began with interventions based on the Technology Transition Model (TTM). The goal of the interventions was to engender...
