It has been reported that endocannabinoids cause GABAergic inhibition and dopaminergic increase in the mesolimbic and nigrostriatal systems, thus playing a part in the neurobiology of schizophrenia. In this study, we investigate cannabinoid receptor 1 (CNR1) gene polymorphisms in schizophrenia patients. Methods: CNR1 gene polymorphisms were studied in 66 schizophrenia patients and 65 healthy controls. To obtain genomic DNA, proteinase K digestion and the salt-chloroform method were used. Clinical Global Impression severity scale (CGI-S) and Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale (PANSS) were administered to evaluate the severity of schizophrenia symptoms. CNR1 gene polymorphism was determined by using polymerase chain reaction (PCR), Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism (RFLP), and Single Strand Conformation Polymorphism (SSCP) methods for the Rs6454674, Rs806368, and Rs1049353 sites. Results: There was no difference in CNR1 gene polymorphisms between schizophrenia patients and control groups (Rs6454674 T/G; p=0.973, Rs806368 T/C; p=0.349, Rs1049353 A/G; p=1.00). However, CGI-S, PANSS total, PANSS positive, PANSS negative and PANSS general psychopathology scores were significantly lower in schizophrenia patients with RS6454674 polymorphism than in those not showing polymorphism. Conclusion: Our results suggest that CNR1 gene polymorphisms may be associated with clinical symptoms and disease severity in schizophrenia patients.","PeriodicalId":17852,"journal":{"name":"Klinik Psikofarmakoloji Bulteni-bulletin of Clinical Psychopharmacology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"81650109","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Reboxetine is a norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor (NRI) antidepressant. Preceding studies regarding possible advantageous effects of reboxetine on deficit symptoms of schizophrenia, too, have resulted in inconsistent outcomes. The present study again assesses the effectiveness of reboxetine as an adjunctive treatment in a group of patients with schizophrenia with prominent negative symptoms. Method: Fifty male inpatients meeting the diagnosis of schizophrenia were enrolled into a 12-week parallel group, double-blind study with random assignment to reboxetine (n=25 patients) or placebo (n=25 patients). Inclusion criterion, in addition to the diagnosis of schizophrenia, was the existence of obvious negative symptoms for a duration of at least two years. Cases with existing co-morbidities like major depressive disorder or diagnosis of schizoaffective disorder or cases that were prescribed long-acting depot or atypical antipsychotics, antidepressants, or lithium were excluded. The Scale for Assessment of Negative Symptoms (SANS) was used as the primary outcome measure. Scale for Assessment of Positive Symptoms (SAPS), Simpson Angus Scale (SAS), Hamilton Rating Scale for Depression (HAM-D) and Mini-Mental Status Examination (MMSE) were used for comparison of the intervening parameters in this study. Duration of the assessment was twelve weeks, and the patients were assessed at baseline (week 0), and at the end of the 4 th , 8 th , and 12 th week by SANS and SAPS. Treatment efficacy was analyzed by t test and repeated-measures analysis of variance (ANOVA). Statistical significance was defined as a 2-sided p value ≤0.05. Results: According to our findings, 76% of the patients in the target group showed some positive response to reboxetine, in comparison with 24% in the control group (p<0.01). Mean total score of SANS in the reboxetine group decreased significantly from 79.94±1.20 to 74.23±4.07 (p<0.0001) at the end of the study, while such an improvement was not significant in the placebo group with a decrement from 80.42±2.46 to 79.08±5.83 (p<0.29). Between-group analysis, as well, showed that the mean total score of SANS in the reboxetine group, in comparison with the control group, improved significantly at 8 and 12 weeks (p<0.03 and p<0.01 respectively). Repeated-measures analysis of variance (ANOVA) showed significant improvement of SANS in the reboxetine group (p<0.02), and also a significant difference in this regard between groups (p<0.001). Changes of SAPS were insignificant in both groups. Effect size (ES) analysis for changes of SANS at the end of assessment indicated a large improvement with reboxetine (Cohen’s d = 2.91).

In addition to this, they are not only restricted to depression treatment. It is well known that antidepressants are also widely used in treatments of subgroups of anxiety disorders. Moreover, they are frequently preferred in areas of medicine other than psychiatry, including pain disorders, migraine, fibromyalgia etc. treatment. Increase of antidepressant use was not found to be associated with increase of population and incidence of psychiatric illnesses 1. Obviously, apart from prescriptions of physicians, accessing easily to antidepressants via pharmacies is a reality in Turkey. This has been emphasized several times by the mass media 2-4. They also observe the misuse of antidepressants. The majority of reported cases of antidepressant misuse occur in individuals with comorbid mood and substance use disorders. The most common m o t i v a t i o n f o r a b u s e i s t o a c h i e v e a psychostimulant-like effect, including a desire for a \" high \" or euphoria. While it is important to recognize that the most majority of individu als prescribed antidepressants do not abuse them, it is also critical for psychiatrist to be aware of the potential for misuse and abuse when prescribing antidepresants 5. In addition to access, perceptions of the nonmedical use or abuse of antidepressants as being more socially acceptable and less stigmatized, may be contributing to increased rates of misuse 6. In my opinion, another possible reason regarding widespread use of antidepressants in Western countries is the support and expectation of strong ego and extroversion. Additionally, feeling strong of self with these medications p r o m o t e s l o n g p e r i o d o f u n n e c e s s a r y antidepressant use. Besides to its benefits, such a group of drugs widely used in all over the world, have some undesirable side-effects 7. In addition to physical side effects like weight gain, antidepressants can emerge psychiatric conditions including maniac and hypomaniac shifts that effect familial and social life. Furthermore, subsyndromal symptoms of hypomania are quite often in population under antidepressant medications.

However, recent studies indicate that the response to antipsychotic medications starts within the first two weeks of treatment. The aim of this study is to determine the predictive value of early improvement at 2 or 4 weeks for non-response at 6 weeks. Methods: Twenty seven in- and out-patients with a diagnosis of schizophrenia according to DSM-IV, between the ages of 18 to 65 years, who were moderately-to-severely ill (baseline Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale (PANSS) total score ≥ 75, with at least “moderate” level of severity / score>4 on at least 2 of the 4 Brief Psychiatric Rating Scale (BPRS) psychotic cluster items) were included. Ten patients were receiving antipsychotic treatment for the first time, and 17 patients’ treatment was changed due to nonresponse to prior antipsychotic treatment. The patients were evaluated with the PANSS and the Clinical Global Impression-Severity (CGI-S) scale at 0, 2, 4 and 6 weeks of antipsychotic treatment. Non-response at endpoint was defined in 3 different ways to reflect the variations in the level of response to medication: “not minimally improved”, “not much improved” and “not remitted”. As previously described, “not minimally improved” and “not much improved” were defined as less than 28% and 53% improvement in the PANSS total scores, respectively. “Not remitted” was defined according to the criteria developed by “The Remission in Schizophrenia Working Group” without the time criterion. Signal detection methods using receiver operating characteristics (ROC) curves were implemented to detect the optimal threshold of early nonresponse at 2 and 4 weeks. Total accuracy, sensitivity, specificity and positive and negative predictive value of cut-off points were calculated for predicting “not minimally improved”, “not much improved” and “not remitted” at endpoint. Results: The early response threshold for predicting “not minimally improved’ was less than 15.3% reduction in PANSS total score at week 2, less than 15.5% reduction at week 4. The early response threshold for predicting “not much improved” was less than 22.1% reduction at week 2 and less than 44.3% reduction at week 4; for “not remitted” was less than 71.5% reduction at week 2 and less than 23.2% reduction at week 4. Specific thresholds of “much improvement” and “remission” were not identified at week 2, whereas thresholds calculated for week 4 had good discriminative power. Conclusion: The findings of this study did not support the findings of earlier studies indicating that nonresponse at 2 weeks accurately predicts subsequent lack of response in patients with schizophrenia. Instead, the findings revealed that non-response could best be predicted at 4 weeks as in some other previous studies. The question of which time point for early prediction of response could be best predicted in schizophrenia patients needs to","PeriodicalId":17852,"journal":{"name":"Klinik Psikofarmakoloji Bulteni-bulletin of Clinical Psychopharmacology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"85828745","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Antidepressant drugs are frequently associated with sexual dysfunct ion (SD). Duloxet ine, a newer antidepressant agent, has sexual dysfunction as a side effect confirmed by placebo studies. In some cases, other rare sexual side effects such as hypersexuality have been reported during duloxetine treatment. Here, we report an unusual case of retrograde ejaculation after duloxetine treatment for major depressive disorder (MDD) with co-morbid generalized anxiety disorder (GAD). Written informed consent was obtained from the patient before writing this report. AN, a 43-year-old married man who met the DSM-IV criteria for MDD with co-morbid GAD. He had been prescribed several medications for MD GAD for 11 years (paroxetine, mirtazapine, venlafaxine, citalopram, escitalopram, tianeptine, milnacipran, sertraline, trazodone, imipramine, and clomipramine). The medications were discontinued because of the adverse effects of these drugs. He had been taking fluoxetine 20 mg/ day PO for the last 6 months. MDD and GAD symptoms were resolved but he was suffering from erectile dysfunction and diminished libido with fluoxetine treatment. The fluoxetine treatment was ended and a duloxetine 60 mg/day PO regimen started. On the second day of duloxetine treatment, difficulties with ejaculation started and continued after the wash-out period for fluoxetine (4 week). In the 4 week of the duloxetine treatment, sexual side effects of fluoxetine (erectile dysfunction, diminished libido) completely resolved and remission of MDD and GAD continued, although he had diff icult ies ejaculating. Due to his complaints, a urine specimen was collected following masturbation. Using a microscope with 10x magnification, the centrifuged urine sediment was examined for the presence spermatozoa. As spermatozoa were seen in the sediment, the patient was diagnosed with retrograde ejaculation according to the European Association of Urology guidelines on ejaculatory dysfunction. The duloxetine dose was decreased to 30 mg/day for two months, but retrograde ejaculation continued. In the 3 month, duloxetine treatment was stopped and bupropion 150 mg/day PO was started.

The introduction of second-generation antipsychotics (SGAs) in the last three decades improved the desired effects of these medications with a reduction of their undesirable effects such as extrapyramidal adverse effects, mortality and metabolic disorder. Medication is generally helpful in treating positive symptoms, but up to a third of people derive little benefit, and negative symptoms are difficult to treat. It has been shown that lack of efficacy and tolerability, often associated with poor compliance, results in treatment discontinuation or treatment switch. Despite critical importance of medication for patients with schizophrenia, nonadherence to treatment is an important issue worldwide. The most prominent patient-related factors associated with nonadherence included lack of insight into the need for medication, denial of illness, embarrassment and unsuitable living conditions. Although antipsychotic medications are necessary, they are not sufficient for the treatment of schizophrenia. The cognitive therapy (cognitive behavioral therapy and cognitive remediation therapy), social skills, psychoeducation programs, family intervention, training programs, and case management or assertive community treatment are the major categories of psychosocial intervention which is an important part of the disease management.
