The First‐Episode Psychosis Outcome Study: premorbid and baseline characteristics of an epidemiological cohort of 661 first‐episode psychosis patients

Aims: Studies conducted in first‐episode psychosis (FEP) samples avoid many biases. However, very few studies are based on epidemiological cohorts treated in specialized FEP services. The aim of this file audit study was to examine premorbid and baseline characteristics of a large epidemiological sample of FEP. Methods: File audit study of all patients admitted to the Early Psychosis Prevention and Intervention Centre between 1998 and 2000 using a specialized questionnaire. Results: There were 661 patient files included in the study. Premorbid evaluation revealed high rates of substance use disorder (74.1%), history of psychiatric disorder (47.5%), past traumatic events (82.7%) suicide attempts (14.3%) and family history of psychiatric illness (55.6%). Baseline characteristics revealed high intensity of illness (mean CGI 5.5), high prevalence of lack of insight (62%) and high rate of comorbidity (70%). Conclusion: High rates of traumatic events or episodes of mental illness before treatment for FEP must be considered when designing treatment approaches because a too narrow focus on positive psychotic symptoms will inevitably lead to incomplete treatment. Additionally, early intervention programmes need sufficient range of resources to address the multiple challenges presented by FEP patients such as high severity of illness, comorbidities and functional impairment. Finally, observation of an important degree of functional impairment despite short duration of untreated psychosis suggests that while early detection of FEP is a necessary step in early intervention, it may not be sufficient to improve functional recovery in psychosis and that efforts aimed at identifying people during the prodromal phase of psychotic disorders should be pursued.     

有精神病性症状躁狂发作的临床特征研究

目的探讨有精神病性症状的躁狂发作的临床特征。方法使用自编的一般情况问卷及有精神病性症状的躁狂发作的精神症状调查问卷,共收集135例"有精神病性症状的躁狂发作"患者,并根据患者的精神病性症状是否与心境相协调进一步分成两组(非典型组59例和典型组76例),比较两组间临床资料的异同。结果在有精神病性症状的躁狂发作中,伴有与心境不协调的精神病性症状的非典型躁狂发作占43.7%、伴有与心境协调的精神病性症状的典型躁狂发作占56.3%,非典型躁狂发作在起病形式、病程特点、病前社会功能、病前性格、首发症状及近期疗效与典型躁狂发作相比有显著性差异(P<0.05),典型组在起病形式上以急性起病者居多,病程多表现为间歇性病程,病前社会功能良好,性格以外向者居多,多以情感症状为首发症状及近期疗效相对较好。结论伴有与心境协调的精神病性症状的典型躁狂发作和伴有与心境不协调的精神病性症状的非典型躁狂发作在临床上均极为常见,非典型躁狂发作为躁狂发作的一个特殊的亚型,我们应对其加强认识。     

Risk Factors for a First Febrile Seizure: A Matched Case-Control Study

Summary We conducted a matched casecontrol study to identify risk factors for first febrile seizures, with special emphasis on characteristics of the acute illness episode. Cases were identified through hospital emergency departments; controls were identified through outpatient clinics and emergency departments. Sixtynine children with first febrile seizures and no history of previous unprovoked seizures were matched for age (±6 months), site of routine pediatric care, and date of visit (±weeks) with 1 or 2 febrile controls who had no history of previous febrile or unprovoked seizures. Medical records for the index visit were reviewed, and parents were interviewed by telephone. Illness characteristics examined included height of temperature, type of underlying illness, contact with a physician during the illness but before the index visit, and use of acetaminophen or decongestants. Family history of febrile and of unprovoked seizures, sociodemographic characteristics, daycare use, and selected preand perinatal variables were also studied. On multivariable analysis, significant independent risk factors were height of temperature, history of febrile seizures in a firstor in a higher degree relative. Gastroenteritis as the underlying illness had a significant inverse (i.e., protective) association with febrile seizures. Maternal smoking during pregnancy was a marginally significant predictor of febrile seizures.     

A study of the interrupted REM episode

Brief interruptions of REM sleep are considered to be part of the REM episode. The maximum allowable duration of such an interruption, which is used to define the end of the REM episode, is currently a matter of debate. Making measurements on individual REM cycles, inter-REM interval analysis was carried out to determine whether the generally adopted 15 minute empirical rule for this maximum needs to be extended to 25 minutes as suggested by several including Kobayashi et al. Our results show that there is no reason to alter the 15 minute rule and that measurements which do not take into account the time-of-night effect may be misleading. The proportion of interrupted REM episodes observed in our population of healthy adults is high. We have therefore also examined in some detail the phenomenology of the temporal evolution of the structure and content of the interrupted REM episodes. Both showed a definite change over the night: the interruptions in the earlier episodes tend to return the system to slow wave sleep while those in the later episodes tend to return it to wake. It is hypothesized that these interruptions reflect a measure of REM sleep pressure and its interaction with both slow wave sleep and wake pressures.     

奎硫平合并心境稳定剂治疗躁狂发作的疗效

目的探讨奎硫平合并碳酸锂或丙戊酸钠治疗躁狂发作的疗效和安全性。方法将符合CCMD-3躁狂发作或分裂情感障碍诊断标准的68例研究对象随机分成两组,研究组应用奎硫平合并碳酸锂或丙戊酸钠,对照组单一使用碳酸锂或丙戊酸钠,治疗观察6周。采用Beck—Rafaelsen躁狂量表(BRMS)评定疗效,以副反应量表(TESS)及实验室有关辅助检查评价安全性。结果奎硫平组在治疗第1周末的减分率比对照组显著,这种差异在1～6周一直存在,而且第6周结束后的临床痊愈率也显著高于对照组。奎硫平组痊愈率为69．7%,对照组为19．2%(x~2=14．85,P＜0．01)。两组均没有严重的药物不良反应,因无疗效和不良反应导致的脱落率两组差异无显著性。奎硫平组脱落率为8．3%,对照组为18．7%(x~2=1．58,P＞0．05)。结论奎硫平合并碳酸锂或丙戊酸钠治疗躁狂发作的疗效比较理想,比单一使用心境稳定剂好。     

Moclobemide versus fluoxetine for a major depressive episode

The efficacy and tolerability of moclobemide (300–600 mg daily) and fluoxetine (20–40 mg daily) were compared in a 6-week, double-blind study of 65 inpatients and 34 outpatients suffering from major depressive episodes (DSM III-R). No statistically significant differences between the two treatment groups were noted regarding efficacy (HDRS, CGI) or safety (adverse events, laboratory examination, vital signs). Moclobemide (300–600 mg daily) and fluoxetine (20–40 mg daily) would thus appear to be comparable both in antidepressant efficacy and tolerability. Doubling the low dosage in non-responders after 3 weeks resulted in a statistically significant improvement of CGI in the moclobemide group by comparison with the fluoxetine group at study end, suggesting that 600 mg moclobemide/day can still improve the patient's condition, while 40 mg fluoxetine/day does not. Sexual dysfunction was reported in two patients taking fluoxetine.

Linkage disequilibrium (LD) analysis provides a powerful means for screening the genome to map the location of disease genes, such as those for bipolar disorder (BP). As described in this paper, the population of the Central Valley of Costa Rica, which is descended from a small number of founders, should be suitable for LD mapping; this assertion is supported by reconstruction of extended haplotypes shared by distantly related individuals in this population suffering low-frequency hearing loss (LFHL1), which has previously been mapped by linkage analysis. A sampling strategy is described for applying LD methods to map genes for BP, and clinical and demographic characteristics of an initially collected sample are discussed. This sample will provide a complement to a previously collected set of Costa Rican BP families which is under investigation using standard linkage analysis. © 1996 Wiley-Liss, Inc.
