fragrance in a Chinese store. . .”

Introduction The idea that some peoplemay not be able to control
their stealing impulses emerged in 1838, when Esquirol and Marc
coined the term Kleptomanie. Although there are not many stud-
ies regarding this issue, becoming therefore difficult to establish
epidemiological data, various clinical samples suggest a high preva-
lence of the disorder. As the problem most likely become chronic
when left untreated, the diagnostic approach is very important.
Aims Literature review and discussion about kleptomania,
regarding a case report.
Methods Clinical interviews and literature review in PUBMED
database.
Results (case report) Female patient, 62 years, with history of Per-
sonality Disorder and Persistent Depressive Disorder, confesses in
psychiatric appointment that she hadbeen caught stealing. She says
that she has this “addiction to steal” since childhood, always steal-
ing cheap stuff, that she does not need, usually giving it away to
other people. She has this behavior as she feels an unexpected and
irresistible impulse to steal, with increasing anxiety, which relieves
when action is consumed. Afterwards she experiences feelings of
shame and guilt. The patient symptoms appear to get worse in
depressive relapses.
Conclusions Regarding individual, family and social impact of
kleptomania is essential to assess it and to treat it promptly. Most
of the patients are ashamed of their behavior, so they may not self-
report. There are few and controversial data concerning treatment,
but it is widely accepted that co-morbidity with mood disorders or
substance use disorders is common and may interfere with treat-
ment.

myopathy

Introduction Cardiotoxic effects of methamphetamine have been
proposed in many investigations, but the risk of striated muscles
involvement among methamphetamine abusers is unknown.
Methods A case-control study has begun in our teaching hospi-
tal to examine the association between methamphetamine abuse
and myopathy. The study population are adult clients who admit
in the electrodiagnostic medicine clinic since January 2015 with
complains of weakness. For each subject with myopathy, 2 con-
trols without myopathy are randomly selected from the same
population. Self-reported history of methamphetamine abuse is
acceptable in both groups.
Results A total of 56 persons with myopathy and 112 controls
have been identified, of whom 5 (9 percent) and 3 (3 percent) had
history of methamphetamine abuse, respectively. Persons with his-
tory of methamphetamine abuse have about three times greater
chance to develop myopathy (95% CI: 1.5–5.1) as compared with
controls.
Conclusion There is a misconception among some workers that
some illicit drugs such as psycho stimulants can improve their abil-
ity towork. In contrast, this study demonstrates that due to harmful
effect on themuscles, methamphetamine could diminish the ability
to work in long time.
