Background
There is some evidence suggesting a role of TAAR6 in schizophrenia. The aim of the present study is to investigate possible influences of a panel of markers in TAAR6 (rs8192625, rs4305745, rs4305746, rs6903874, rs6937506) on clinical outcomes and side effects in a sample of Korean schizophrenic aripiprazole treated patients.Methods
Efficacy was assessed at baseline and weeks 1, 2, 4, 6, 8 using CGI-S, CGI-I, BPRS and SANS. Side effects were evaluated through SAS, BAS and AIMS. Multivariate analysis of covariance (MANCOVA) was used to test possible influences of single SNPs on clinical and safety scores. Tests for associations using multi-marker haplotypes were performed using the statistics environment “R”.Results
A significant time per genotype interaction was found between rs4305746 in repeated measures of ANOVA on BPRS scores (F = 2.45, df = 10,365, p = 0.008). In particular G/A and A/A genotype patients were more likely to improve over time as compared to carriers of the G/G genotype. Permutation analysis confirmed a significant effect of rs4305746 on course of BPRS scores over time (p = 0.007). Haplotype analysis did not reveal any significant association with clinical and safety scores at any time.Conclusion
A possible association could exist between some genotypes in TAAR6 and response to aripiprazole. However, several limitations characterize the present work, such as small sample size, the finding related to a single scale and the possibility of false positive findings, thus further investigation is required. 相似文献2.

Objective
The aim of our study was to reveal the personality traits of individuals with major and other depressive episodes among the young adult population. Furthermore, character traits of individuals with ideas of suicide or self-harm were also investigated in this study.Methods
The subjects of this study were 1421 university students who completed the Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-9) and the Temperament and Character Inventory (TCI). The subjects were divided into three separate groups: the major depressive episode group (N = 41), the other depressive episode group (N = 97), and the non-depressive controls (N = 1283). This separation was achieved using the PHQ-9 algorithm diagnosis. We compared the TCI scores using an analysis of variance. Moreover, the Cochran-Armitage trend test was used to determine the diagnosis, ideas of suicide or self-harm, and analysis of character profiles.Results
The major depressive episode group had significantly higher HA (P < 0.001), lower RD (P < 0.001), lower SD (P < 0.001), and lower C (P < 0.001) scores than non-depressive controls. The other depressive episode group had significantly higher HA scores (P < 0.001) and lower SD scores (P < 0.001) than non-depressive controls. The Cochran-Armitage trend test revealed that the prevalence of depressive episodes decreased as the character profiles matured (χ2trend = 57.2, P < 0.0001). The same tendency was observed in individuals who had ideas of suicide or self-harm (χ2trend = 49.3, P < 0.0001).Conclusion
High HA and low SD scores were common personality traits among young adults with major depressive episodes. Furthermore, the immaturity of character profiles was clearly associated with depressive episodes and ideas of suicide or self-harm. 相似文献3.

Objective
In a previous polysomnographic cross-sectional study we found a significant relationship between sleep disorders and multiple sclerosis (MS) related fatigue. The purpose of this open follow-up observation was to compare the impact of treatment of sleep disorders on MS related fatigue measured with the Modified Fatigue Impact Scale (MFIS).Methods
Non-randomized follow-up observation: treated versus untreated patients, subgroups according to compliance with sleep medical treatment recommendations (univariate, multivariate analysis, multiple logistic regression). 66 MS patients were followed after polysomnography, 49 patients with relevant sleep disorders and 17 without.Results
Mean MFIS scores decreased from 41.2 to 26.2 (p = 0.025) in patients with good compliance (GC; n = 18), from 42.4 to 32.1 (p = 0.12) in patients with moderate compliance (MC; n = 12), and from 41.6 to 35.5 (p = 0.17) in non-compliant patients (NC; n = 17). Mean MFIS values increased in patients without sleep disorders from 22.9 to 25.4 (NSD; n = 12, p = 0.56). In multiple logistic regression, treatment of sleep disorders predicted decrease of MFIS-values (GC versus NSD odds ratio 13.4; p = 0.015; 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.7–107.2, MC versus NSD odds ratio 13.8; p = 0.028; 95% CI 1.3–143.3).Conclusions
Sleep medical treatment may improve MS related fatigue when patients adhere to treatment recommendations. 相似文献4.

Background
Approximately 25% of patients admitted to a hospital as a result of depression are actually suffering from psychotic depression. Psychotic symptoms can be present in patients with either unipolar depression or bipolar depression and can be difficult to treat. It was reported the second-generation tetracycline may exert potential antidepressant effects through its robust neuroprotective activities, which include neurogenesis, antioxidation, and anti-glutamate excitotoxicity, and may direct regulation of pro-inflammatory agents.Methods
This was a 6-week, open-label study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of minocycline in combination with antidepressants in adult inpatients (n = 25) diagnosed with major depression with psychotic features (psychotic depression) according to DSM-IV-TR. The primary endpoint was the change from baseline in the Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (HAM-D-21) score from baseline to week 6. Secondary endpoints were changes in the Brief Psychiatric Rating Scale (BPRS) and the Clinical Global Impression (CGI) Scale scores from baseline to week 6. Spontaneously reported adverse events were recorded.Results
The patients' average age was 46.9 ± 10.2 years. Minocyline (150 mg/day) in combination with antidepressants (fulvoxamine, paroxetine, and sertraline) provided significant improvement in depression. Mean (± SD) HAM-D-21 was reduced to 6.7 ± 1.9 at week 6 from a baseline value of 40.4 ± 2.5. Significant improvement of psychotic symptoms (mean ± SD) was indicated by the decrease in BPRS scores from baseline (63.3 ± 8.7) to week 6 (4.6 ± 2.4). No serious adverse events occurred.Conclusions
These preliminary data suggest that minocycline in combination with antidepressants is effective and well tolerated in the treatment of unipolar psychotic depression. Further studies using larger, double-blind, parallel-group design are warranted to confirm these findings. 相似文献5.
Objective
There is a high prevalence, yet under-treatment of depressive disorder and symptoms by conventional therapy in people with multiple sclerosis (MS). We conducted a meta-analysis examining the overall effect of exercise training on depressive symptoms in MS.Methods
We searched PubMed for randomized controlled trials (RCT) of exercise training and depression as an outcome in samples with MS. There were 13 RCTs that met inclusion criteria and yielded data for effect size (ES) generation (Cohen's d). An overall ES was calculated using a random effects model and expressed as Hedge's g.Results
The weighted mean ES was small, but statistically significant (Hedge's g = 0.36, SE = 0.09, 95% CI = 0.18–0.54, z = 3.92, p < .001) indicating the exercise training resulted in an improvement in depressive symptoms compared to control. The overall effect was not heterogeneous (Q = 16.46, df = 12, p = 0.17, I2 = 27.08); and post-hoc, exploratory analyses only identified depression symptom scale as a potential moderator variable (p = 0.04).Conclusion
The cumulative evidence indicates that exercise training can yield a small, yet statistically significant and reliable reduction in depressive symptoms for people with MS. 相似文献6.

Objective
Previous population-based studies suggest that exposure to secondhand smoke (SHS) is related to increased depressive symptoms and poor mental health among non-smokers. We examined whether these associations could be replicated in two independent Dutch samples.Methods
Non-smoking adults were selected from two studies: 1) the Netherlands Study of Depression and Anxiety (NESDA), comprising individuals with current and remitted depressive and/or anxiety disorders, and healthy controls and 2) the Netherlands Twin Register (NTR), comprising twin-family studies on health-related behaviors. In both studies, SHS exposure was assessed with plasma cotinine levels (1–14 ng/ml vs. < 1 ng/ml). In NESDA, outcomes were current depressive and/or anxiety disorders, and depression and anxiety symptom severity scores. In NTR, the Adult Self Report derived DSM-subscales for depressive and anxiety problems, and anxious depressive scores were analyzed.Results
In NESDA non-smokers (n = 1757), increased plasma cotinine level (≥ 1 ng/ml) was not related to current depressive and/or anxiety disorders [odds ratio (OR) 0.96, P = .77], nor to depression or anxiety severity indicators. Similarly, in NTR non-smokers (n = 1088) cotinine levels ≥ 1 ng/ml were not associated with the DSM-subscale for depressive problems [unstandardized regression coefficient (B) 0.04, P = .88], nor to other depression and anxiety measures.Conclusions
In non-smoking adults from patient and population samples, we found no evidence that plasma cotinine levels were related to either depressive and/or anxiety disorders, or to depressive and anxiety symptoms. This suggests that SHS exposure is not related to depression and anxiety in non-smoking adults. 相似文献7.

Introduction
Toll-like receptors have been found to be associated with immune-mediated diseases but it is still not clear whether they play a role in immune thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP), especially TLR4. CD4 + T-lymphocyte abnormalities, including Th17, Th1, Th2, and regulator T cell (Treg), are considered important in ITP. There have been few studies regarding the expression of TLR4 and the relationships between TLR4 and Th17 levels in ITP.Materials and Methods
In this study, we evaluated the expression of TLR4 in monocytes, the plasma concentrations of IL-23, IL-17 and the profiles of Th17, Th1, Th2 cells in 70 patients with ITP and 31 healthy controls. In addition, we evaluated IL-2 and Treg cells in 46 cases of 70 patients with ITP and the same 31 controls.Results
Higher levels of TLR4 expression, higher relative numbers of Th17 and Th1 cells and lower levels of Treg cells were observed in patients when compared with controls (p = 0.001 for TLR4; p < 0.001 for Th17; p = 0.014 for Th1; p = 0.001 for Treg). The levels of IL-23 and IL-2 were increased (p = 0.022 for IL-23; p = 0.025 for IL-2), the relative levels of Th2 and concentrations of IL-17 were similar across both groups (p = 0.446 for Th2; p = 0.316 for IL-17). A significant negative correlation was observed between levels of TLR4 and Treg(r = -0.544, p < 0.001), but a significantly positive correlation was observed between IL-2 and IL-23 concentration in patients (r = 0.441, p = 0.004). Neither the correlation between TLR4 and the other CD4+ T cells and cytokines nor the correlation between the three cytokines and CD4+ T cells was found to be statistically significant.Conclusions
Our data showed that TLR4, CD4 + T cells (Th1, Th17 and Treg cells) and related cytokines (IL-23, IL-2) may take part in the pathogenesis of ITP. TLR4 may play a role through the TLR4-cytokine-CD4+ T lymphocyte cell pathway. 相似文献8.

Objective
The DiaMind trial showed beneficial immediate effects of mindfulness-based cognitive therapy (MBCT) on emotional distress, but not on diabetes distress and HbA1c. The aim of the present report was to examine if the effects would be sustained after six month follow-up.Methods
In the DiaMind trial, 139 outpatients with diabetes (type-I or type-II) and a lowered level of emotional well-being were randomized into MBCT (n = 70) or a waiting list with treatment as usual (TAU: n = 69). Primary outcomes were perceived stress, anxiety and depressive symptoms, and diabetes distress. Secondary outcomes were, among others, health status, and glycemic control (HbA1c).Results
Compared to TAU, MBCT showed sustained reductions at follow-up in perceived stress (p < .001, d = .76), anxiety (p < .001, assessed by HADS d = .83; assessed by POMS d = .92), and HADS depressive symptoms (p = .004, d = .51), but not POMS depressive symptoms when using Bonferroni correction for multiple testing (p = .016, d = .48). No significant between-group effect was found on diabetes distress and HbA1c.Conclusion
This study showed sustained benefits of MBCT six months after the intervention on emotional distress in people with diabetes and a lowered level of emotional well-being.Trial registration

Objective
The primary objective of this article is to review the literature regarding the speed of response to antidepressant drugs and potential strategies to accelerate the antidepressant response in new antidepressant-free patients with depression. Based on these data, we try to propose both an effective and safe antidepressant treatment strategy to alleviate depressive symptoms at the earliest opportunity.Data sources
Data were identified by searches of Medline (1966 to September 2009) and references from relevant articles and books. Search terms included depression, antidepressant, predictor, response, onset, acceleration, and augmentation. As our focus was on the acute phase treatment of depression, articles relevant to treatment-resistant depression were excluded. Only articles written in English or Japanese were consulted.Data selection
Studies, reviews, and books pertaining to the treatment of depression with a special regard to accelerating therapeutic effects were selected.Data synthesis
Most of the available treatment guidelines for major depressive disorders recommend the continuous use of antidepressants for 4 to 8 weeks based on the idea of a delayed onset of response to these drugs. Contrary to this conventional belief, the recent data indicate that antidepressants start to exert their effects within 2 weeks and early non-response could predict a subsequent unfavorable outcome.Conclusions
These findings suggest the need of revisiting the timing of an antidepressant switch for early non-responders, whereby switching could be commenced in as early as 2 weeks. 相似文献10.
