Bright dawn simulation compared with bright morning light in the treatment of winter depression.

In a randomized cross-over design, 7 patients with winter depression were treated with a week of a bright (1700 lx) dawn simulation (0400 to 0600) and a week of standard bright (1700 lx) morning (0600 to 0800) light therapy. The Hamilton Rating Scale for Depression scores decreased significantly for the standard light therapy (18.9 to 6.6) but not for the bright dawn therapy (18.0 to 11.3). Early morning awakening was a frequent side effect with the bright dawn simulation. Although dawn simulation at a lower illuminance may be an effective treatment, the bright dawn used in this study showed only a nonsignificant trend to lower depression ratings. The illuminance of dawn simulation should be adjusted to minimize side effects.     

Antisocial personality disorder, HIV risk behavior and retention in methadone maintenance therapy

In a sample of 55 consecutive methadone maintenance admissions to our clinic, 42% were diagnosed with antisocial personality disorder (ASPD) using the National Institute of Mental Health Diagnostic Interview Schedule NIMH DIS. Individuals with ASPD exhibited greater risk for HIV infection as defined by more sexual contacts, needle use and equipment sharing. Data at 1 year follow-up were obtained on this group of patients. The objective was to compare the ASPD and non-ASPD groups with regards to demographics, drug abuse history, outcome and retention in treatment. There were no significant differences between the groups on any demographic or treatment outcome variables. Survival analysis indicated that there were no group differences in treatment retention. In conclusion, although there were no differences in treatment outcome between ASPD and non-ASPD groups it is possible that ASPD patients who drop out of treatment will be at higher risk for contracting and spreading HIV within the IV drug using population. These data also suggest that in this population the diagnosis of ASPD using primarily behavioral traits as measured in the NIMH-DIS-III, has little utility in predicting treatment outcome.

急性脑血管病与代谢紊乱的关系

目的　探讨急性脑血管病与代谢紊乱的关系。方法　对 2 72名上海地区正常人及 92 3例急性脑血管病 (5 0 3例脑梗死、4 2 0例脑出血 )患者住院的基线资料进行分析。结果　① 5 0 3例脑梗死、4 2 0例脑出血患者的年龄、体重指数 (BMI)、血压、血糖、低密度脂蛋白 (LDL)值均高于对照组 (P <0 .0 5 )。②脑梗死、脑出血患者中 ,伴高血压者分别为 95 .0 %、97.1% ;伴高血糖者分别为 4 4 .0 %、39.7% ;伴高三酰甘油 (TG) /低高密度脂蛋白 (HDL)分别为 34.8%、38.1% ;③脑梗死、脑出血患者中 ,合并代谢综合征者分别占 14 .7%、16 .7% ;合并 2种代谢紊乱者分别占 4 6 .9%、4 3.1% ;合并 1种代谢紊乱者分别占 36 .0 %、38.8% ;无代谢紊乱者仅分别占2 .4 %、1.4 %。④脑梗死、脑出血患者中 ,除代谢紊乱者血压均显著高于对照组及无代谢紊乱者外 ,合并 2种以上代谢紊乱患者中BMI、血糖、TG均高于对照组及无代谢紊乱者 (P <0 .0 5 )。结论　急性脑血管病患者多伴有多种代谢紊乱 ,因而 ,有效控制代谢紊乱与预防脑血管病的发生、发展及其预后有关     

抑郁症焦虑症状和焦虑症的抑郁症状

目的　探讨抑郁症和焦虑症的抑郁和焦虑症状的差异 ,为鉴别诊断提供依据。方法　使用HAMD和HAMA对5 5例抑郁症患者和 2 0例焦虑症患者进行评定。结果　 (1)抑郁症组绝大部分为中、重度抑郁 (92 .7% ) ,焦虑症组无一例为重度抑郁 ;(2 )抑郁症组的HAMD总分和除焦虑 /躯体化以外的因子分均显著高于焦虑症组 (P <0 .0 5或P <0 .0 1) ,(3)抑郁症患者和焦虑症患者的HAMD和HAMA评分均呈显著性正相关 (P <0 .0 0 1)。结论　HAMD总分有助于鉴别抑郁症和焦虑症。     

Manic episode with psychotic symptoms induced by subthalamic nucleus stimulation in a patient with Parkinson's disease.

Deep brain stimulation of the subthalamic nucleus (STN-DBS) is an established therapy for Parkinson's disease (PD). A manic episode with psychotic symptoms induced by STN-DBS occurred in a previously psychiatrically healthy patient, focusing on the role of STN-DBS in influencing not only motor but also emotional behaviour.     

Upper gastrointestinal tract dysfunction in bulimia

Bulimia nervosa is a health problem of increasing magnitude that is estimated to affect 2–5% of the American adolescent and young adult female population. Because of the magnitude of this clinical problem and because of the importance of the upper gastrointestinal tract in its expression, a intradepartmental program of health care for patients affected with the disease was initiated. Eleven consecutive symptomatic bulimic individuals have been evaluated jointly by the gastroenterology and the psychiatry departments of the University of Pittsburgh. Five of these 11 individuals were found to have clinically important upper gastrointestinal pathology including ulcerative esophagitis, erosive gastritis, duodenal ulcer, and delayed gastric emptying. These gastrointestinal conditions could have been either a result of or have contributed to the symptomatology of these five patients. These data suggest that bulimic subjects have clinically important gastroenterological disease processes that require specific diagnosis and treatment independent of the psychiatric treatment provided for the bulimic condition.This work was supported in part by grants from NIDDK AM 32556.
