The adjusted odds ratios (aOR) for miscarriage were 0.966 (95% confidence interval [CI], 0.796–1.173) for atypical antipsychotics and 0.998 (0.784–1.269) for aripiprazole. A higher aOR (1.431, 95% CI 1.303–1.573) suggested an association with benzodiazepines. A sensitivity analysis that limited the population to women diagnosed with schizophrenia alone did not suggest an association between atypical antipsychotics and the risk of miscarriage.</p>\u0000 </section>\u0000 \u0000 <section>\u0000 \u0000 <h3> Conclusions</h3>\u0000 \u0000 <p>The results of this study do not suggest an association between exposure to atypical antipsychotics during pregnancy and the risk of miscarriage.</p>\u0000 </section>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":108,"journal":{"name":"Acta Psychiatrica Scandinavica","volume":"150 6","pages":"562-572"},"PeriodicalIF":5.3,"publicationDate":"2024-09-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142131269","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Iproniazid appeared to have a “psychic energizing effect,” which resulted in the improvement of depressive symptoms in some tuberculosis patients,&lt;span&gt;&lt;sup&gt;1&lt;/sup&gt;&lt;/span&gt; around that time, iproniazid was shown to inhibit the MAO enzyme. Iproniazid was approved as an antidepressant, and this led to the development of several other MAOIs. Brain neurotransmitter levels are inactivated by MAO-A (serotonin, norepinephrine, dopamine) and MAO-B (dopamine) isoenzymes. Inhibition of the MAO enzyme leads to an increasing synaptic availability of these monoamines. In addition, tranylcypromine is similar in chemical structure to amphetamine and shares its dopamine-releasing and stimulant-like effects. Tranylcypromine and phenelzine are the most frequently used non-selective MAOIs, which bind the MAO enzyme irreversibly, and deactivate it permanently. Moclobemide is a selective MAO-A inhibitor, and enters into a reversible binding to the enzyme. Tranylcypromine and Phenelzine were widely prescribed until the late 1960s. The use of MAOIs has declined dramatically, as stated in their network meta-analysis by Gimenez-Palomo et al.&lt;span&gt;&lt;sup&gt;2&lt;/sup&gt;&lt;/span&gt; The historical perspective is important in understanding this decline.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;In the 1960s it was not well understood that MAOIs inhibit the breakdown of tyramine, and that excessive tyramine intake when using an MAOI, can lead to a hypertensive crisis. A series of initially unexplained hypertensive crises actually occurred, some even resulting in stroke. The cause of this “cheese reaction” was uncovered in the late 1960s, but the fear for the hypertensive reaction remained. Furthermore, in one of the first large randomized clinical trials in psychiatry,&lt;span&gt;&lt;sup&gt;3&lt;/sup&gt;&lt;/span&gt; which included 260 depressed patients, both ECT and imipramine appeared to be effective, whereas phenelzine and placebo were not. In hindsight, one may well argue, that both the duration of treatment with phenelzine (4 weeks) and its dose (maximum 60 mg daily) were insufficient, therefore, phenelzine fell short of its full efficacy potential. Subsequently, MAOIs were regarded as not very effective and dangerous antidepressant drugs. This perception influenced physicians to strongly favor tricyclic antidepressants (TCAs) over MAOIs. Usage of MAOIs further declined, following the development of newer antidepressants, especially the selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs). Concerns about the safety profile of MAOIs, including potentially dangerous drug–drug interactions, which could result in serotonin syndrome, and the risk of a hypertensive crisis restricted their use. Furthermore, the use of MAOIs was not promoted by any pharmaceutical company.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;In several countries the number of prescriptions of MAOIs is extremely low: about 500 patie","PeriodicalId":108,"journal":{"name":"Acta Psychiatrica Scandinavica","volume":"150 6","pages":"497-499"},"PeriodicalIF":5.3,"publicationDate":"2024-09-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/acps.13753","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142124284","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
