Figure 2. PTSD-related symptoms and frequent psychiatric comorbidities pre- and post-PTSD diagnosis in the overall sample1. AA, atypical antipsychotic; DX, diagnosis; PTSD, post-traumatic stress disorder. 1Statistical comparisons were conducted for 0–6 vs 18–24 months post-diagnosis using Chi-square tests; all comparisons were statistically significant (p < 0.001).

Figure 3. Proportions of patients with selected PTSD comorbidities at 0–6 months and 18–24 months post-PTSD diagnosis in the overall sample and subgroups1. AA, atypical antipsychotic; DX, diagnosis; PTSD, post-traumatic stress disorder. 1 Statistical comparisons were conducted for 0–6 vs 18–24 months post-diagnosis using Chi-square tests, separately for the overall sample, the patients treated with AAs subgroup, and the patients not treated with AAs subgroup; all comparisons were statistically significant (p < 0.001).

Figure 4. Treatments received pre- and post-PTSD diagnosis1. AA, atypical antipsychotic; PTSD, post-traumatic stress disorder; SNRI, serotonin-norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor; SSRI, selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor. 1 Statistical comparisons were conducted for 0–6 vs 18–24 months post-diagnosis using Wilcoxon’s signed rank tests, separately for the overall sample, the patients treated with AAs subgroup, and the patients not treated with AAs subgroup; all comparisons were statistically significant (p < 0.001).
