Psychopatologie schizofrenie s časným začátkem a její terapie se zaměřením na atypická neuroleptika / Psychopathology of early-onset schizophrenia and its therapy with focus on atypical neuroleptics

Koblic Zedková, Iveta January 2016 (has links)
OBJECTIVES: The aim of our study was to assess clinical presentation of early-onset schizophrenia spectrum disoders (EO-SSD), the time to first improvement and efficacy associated with selected atypical (AAPs) and typical (TAPs) antipsychotics, as well as two main side effects - weight gain and treatment-emergent extrapyramidal symptoms (EPSs) during the treatment in patients with EO-SSD. METHODS: This was a systematic chart review of all patients receiving routine clinical care in our department, with selected AAPs (risperidone, olanzapine, ziprasidone, quetiapine and clozapine) and TAPs (haloperidol, perphenazine and sulpiride), for schizophrenic psychoses, between 1997 and 2007. During this period, our review identified 173 patients (85 males, 88 females; mean age 15.8±1.6 years); their treatment included 297 treatment trials. Data on premorbid adjustment, prodromal symptoms and psychopathology at admission, as well as comorbidity were evaluated based on the patients' medical records. The time to first improvement could be estimated in 258 treatment trials; of these, 195 (76%) comprised AAPs and 63 (24%) TAPs. The time to first improvement was assessed in agreement with the methodology established for retrospective studies as the number of treatment days prior to the first record of improvement...

Vliv psychotropních látek na mitochondriální funkce. / The effect of psychotropic drugs on the mitochondrial functions.

Cikánková, Tereza January 2020 (has links)
Psychopharmaca are a large group of drugs widely used not only in psychiatry. Their systemic administration affects both the main diagnosis and the organism as a whole. The subject of our experiments is the effect of psychopharmaca on the changes in mitochondrial functions, which is beneficial for understanding of molecular mechanisms of therapeutic and adverse effects of drugs. The aim of this thesis was to study the in vitro effects of selected drugs on the cell energy metabolism. Selected antipsychotics (chlorpromazine, levomepromazine, haloperidol, risperidone, ziprasidone, zotepine, aripiprazole, clozapine, olanzapine, and quetiapine), antidepressants (bupropion, fluoxetine, amitriptyline, imipramine) and mood stabilizers (lithium, valproate, valpromide, lamotrigine, carbamazepine) were tested. In vitro effects of selected psychopharmaca were measured on isolated pig brain mitochondria. The activities of citrate synthase (CS) and electron transport chain (ETC) complexes (I, II+III, IV) were measured spectrophotometrically. Drug-induced changes of mitochondrial respiration rates linked to complex I (supported by malate and pyruvate) and complex II (supported by succinate) were evaluated by high resolution respirometry. Complex I was significantly inhibited by lithium, carbamazepine, fluoxetine,...

The Impact of Genome-Wide Supported Schizophrenia Risk Variants in the Neurogranin Gene on Brain Structure and Function

Walton, Esther, Geisler, Daniel, Hass, Johannes, Liu, Jingyu, Turner, Jessica, Yendiki, Anastasia, Smolka, Michael N., Ho, Beng-Choon, Manoach, Dara S., Gollub, Randy L., Rößner, Veit, Calhoun, Vince D., Ehrlich, Stefan 06 February 2014 (has links) (PDF)
The neural mechanisms underlying genetic risk for schizophrenia, a highly heritable psychiatric condition, are still under investigation. New schizophrenia risk genes discovered through genome-wide association studies (GWAS), such as neurogranin (NRGN), can be used to identify these mechanisms. In this study we examined the association of two common NRGN risk single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) with functional and structural brain-based intermediate phenotypes for schizophrenia. We obtained structural, functional MRI and genotype data of 92 schizophrenia patients and 114 healthy volunteers from the multisite Mind Clinical Imaging Consortium study. Two schizophrenia-associated NRGN SNPs (rs12807809 and rs12541) were tested for association with working memory-elicited dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) activity and surface-wide cortical thickness. NRGN rs12541 risk allele homozygotes (TT) displayed increased working memory-related activity in several brain regions, including the left DLPFC, left insula, left somatosensory cortex and the cingulate cortex, when compared to non-risk allele carriers. NRGN rs12807809 non-risk allele (C) carriers showed reduced cortical gray matter thickness compared to risk allele homozygotes (TT) in an area comprising the right pericalcarine gyrus, the right cuneus, and the right lingual gyrus. Our study highlights the effects of schizophrenia risk variants in the NRGN gene on functional and structural brain-based intermediate phenotypes for schizophrenia. These results support recent GWAS findings and further implicate NRGN in the pathophysiology of schizophrenia by suggesting that genetic NRGN risk variants contribute to subtle changes in neural functioning and anatomy that can be quantified with neuroimaging methods.

Regularity of self‑reported daily dosage of mood stabilizers and antipsychotics in patients with bipolar disorder

Pilhatsch, Maximilian, Glenn, Tasha, Rasgon, Natalie, Alda, Martin, Sagduyu, Kemal, Grof, Paul, Munoz, Rodrigo, Marsh, Wendy, Monteith, Scott, Severus, Emanuel, Bauer, Rita, Ritter, Philipp, Whybrow, Peter C., Bauer, Michael 07 June 2018 (has links) (PDF)
Background Polypharmacy is often prescribed for bipolar disorder, yet medication non-adherence remains a serious problem. This study investigated the regularity in the daily dosage taken of mood stabilizers and second generation antipsychotics. Methods Daily self-reported data on medications taken and mood were available from 241 patients with a diagnosis of bipolar disorder who received treatment as usual. Patients who took the same mood stabilizer or second generation antipsychotic for ≥ 100 days were included. Approximate entropy was used to determine serial regularity in daily dosage taken. Generalized estimating equations were used to estimate if demographic or clinical variables were associated with regularity. Results There were 422 analysis periods available from the 241 patients. Patients took drugs on 84.4% of days. Considerable irregularity was found, mostly due to single-day omissions and dosage changes. Drug holidays (missing 3 or more consecutive days) were found in 35.8% of the analysis periods. Irregularity was associated with an increasing total number of psychotropic drugs taken (p = 0.009), the pill burden (p = 0.026), and the percent of days depressed (p = 0.049). Conclusion Despite low missing percent of days, daily drug dosage may be irregular primarily due to single day omissions and dosage changes. Drug holidays are common. Physicians should expect to see partial adherence in clinical practice, especially with complex drug regimens. Daily dosage irregularity may impact the continuity of drug action, contribute to individual variation in treatment response, and needs further study.

Evidence-based guidelines for pharmacological treatment of anxiety disorders

Baldwin, David S., Anderson, Ian M., Nutt, David J., Bandelow, Borwin, Bond, Alyson, Davidson, Jonathan R. T., den Boer, Johan A., Fineberg, Naomi A., Knapp, Martin, Scott, Jan, Wittchen, Hans-Ulrich 30 January 2013 (has links) (PDF)
These British Association for Psychopharmacology guidelines cover the range and aims of treatment for anxiety disorders. They are based explicitly on the available evidence and are presented as recommendations to aid clinical decision making in primary and secondary medical care. They may also serve as a source of information for patients and their carers. The recommendations are presented together with a more detailed review of the available evidence. A consensus meeting involving experts in anxiety disorders reviewed the main subject areas and considered the strength of evidence and its clinical implications. The guidelines were constructed after extensive feedback from participants and interested parties. The strength of supporting evidence for recommendations was rated. The guidelines cover the diagnosis of anxiety disorders and key steps in clinical management, including acute treatment, relapse prevention and approaches for patients who do not respond to first-line treatments.
