Although previous research suggests a role for chronic inflammatory dysfunctions in several disease etiologies, specific associations between childhood trauma types and later life inflammation and health status are not well understood. Methods: We studied patients (n=280) who were admitted to a psychiatric rehabilitation center. Self-reported histories of childhood emotional, physical, and sexual trauma history were collected. At the time of admission, we also assessed the body mass index (BMI) for each individual and collected blood samples that were used to examine levels of inflammatory marker C-reactive protein (CRP). Results: The prevalence of all three types of abuse was quite high, at 21% or more. 50% of the sample had elevations in CRP, with clinically significant elevations in 26%. We found that compared to a history of emotional or physical abuse, a history of childhood sexual trauma was more specifically associated with elevated CRP. This result held up when controlling for BMI. Limitation: Our sample is relatively young, with an average age of 27.2 years, with a minimal representation of ethnic and racial minority participants. Conclusion: Relative to childhood emotional and physical trauma, childhood sexual trauma may lead to elevated inflammatory responses, which were common overall in the sample. Future studies need to assess the causal link between childhood sexual trauma and poorer health outcomes later in life.","PeriodicalId":394244,"journal":{"name":"The International Journal of Neuropsychopharmacology","volume":"68 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-04-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128776429","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}

The final clinical pharmacology review was completed on September 3, 1999. Entacapone is a potent and specific peripheral catechol-O-methyltransferase (COMT) inhibitor. It has been shown to improve the clinical benefits of levodopa plus an aromatic L-amino acid decarboxylase inhibitor (AADC) when given to patients with Parkinson's disease and end-of-dose deterioration in the response to levodopa (the \"wearing-off\" phenomenon). The drug indication is for Parkinson's disease as an adjunct therapy to levodopa/carbidopa. This is a combination drug with carbidopa (aromatic amino acid decarboxylation inhibitor) and entacapone. It is rapidly absorbed after oral administration of a single dose with peak time generally reached within 1 hour. It is noted that no accumulation of plasma entacapone was detected after 8 daily doses. The maximum daily dose is 2000 mg. In this paper, the clinical pharmacology review of the drug is presented from the perspective of a clinical pharmacologist that reviewed this NDA at the FDA. It should be noted that all the information in this paper is publicly available on the FDA website and in its literature.","PeriodicalId":394244,"journal":{"name":"The International Journal of Neuropsychopharmacology","volume":"00 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-03-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132291868","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}

There are reports ofsex differences in quantities of drug used and relapses to drug use among individuals with MUD. However, the molecular neurobiology of these potential sex differences remains unknown.\u0000\u0000\u0000METHODS\u0000We trained rats to self-administer METH (0. 1 mg/kg/infusion, IV) on a FR-1 schedule for 20 days using two 3-h daily METH sessions separated by 30 min breaks. At the end of self-administration (SA) training, rats underwent tests of cue-induced METH seeking on withdrawal days 3 (WD3) and 30 (WD30). Twenty-four hours later, nucleus accumbens (NAc) was dissected and then used to measure neuropeptide mRNA levels.\u0000\u0000\u0000RESULTS\u0000Behavioral results show that male rats increased the number of METH infusions earlier during SA training and took more METH than females. Both male and female rats could be further divided into two phenotypes labeled high and low takers based on the degree of escalation that they exhibited during the course of the METH SA experiment. Both males and females exhibited incubation of METH seeking after 30 days of forced withdrawal. Females had higher basal mRNA levels of dynorphin (Pdyn) and hypocretin/orexin receptors (Hcrtr1/2) than males whereas males expressed higher vasopressin mRNA levels than females under saline and METH conditions. Unexpectedly, only males showed increased expression of NAc dynorphin after METH SA. Moreover, there were significant correlations between NAc Hcrtr1, Hcrtr2, Crhr2, and Avpr1b mRNA levels and cue-induced METH seeking only in female rats.\u0000\u0000\u0000CONCLUSION\u0000Our results identify some behavioral and molecular differences between male and female rats that had self-administered METH. Sexual dimorphism in responses to METH exposure should be considered when developing potential therapeutic agents against METH use disorder.","PeriodicalId":394244,"journal":{"name":"The International Journal of Neuropsychopharmacology","volume":"34 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-09-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131111555","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}

He worked under well-known pharmacologists in the UK such as Bain (Leeds), Burn (Oxford) and Gaddum (Manchester) before moving to the US on a Burroughs-Wellcome research fellowship to their facility in New York City where he produced his first major (and most cited) paper (Dews, 1953) on effects of amphetamine, nicotine, cocaine and other drugs on motor activity in mice. He then obtained a PhD at the University of Minnesota and worked at the Mayo Clinic, where he gained his tremendous expertise in statistics.\u0000\u0000His career took a major step forwards when he moved to Otto Krayer's Department at Harvard, at which point his academic globe-trotting ceased and he spent the rest of his career developing what was to become an eminent laboratory there under his overall direction.

We offer the following response.\u0000\u0000The authors of the letter direct attention to our mean spontaneous firing rate for dopaminergic neurons in the ventral tegmental area (VTA-DA neurons) being lower than typically found and particularly note that we included neurons with firing rates as low as 1.0 Hz. Our mean rates of firing are indeed somewhat lower than often reported by other investigators. We were clearly aware of this, specifically describing in our Methods section that we included slow-firing neurons. Our criteria for DA neurons in the VTA depended upon ( a ) stereotaxic location and then ( b ) the specific wave form of the unit as stated in the Procedure section, which is widely acknowledged for these neurons. Because we were recording multiple neurons in each animal, there was no way to mark individual neurons and identify their locations and/or characteristics histologically; consequently, we included neurons based on waveform. Given these criteria, we saw no basis for discarding neurons because their firing rate was slow and, consequently, such neurons were included.\u0000\u0000The writers of the letter call attention to an article by Ungless et al. (2004), who described differences between DA and non-DA neurons in the VTA. The writers noted that our mean spontaneous firing rate was closer to that of non-dopaminergic cells than dopaminergic cells. However, the main point of the article by Ungless et al. was that VTA-DA neurons were inhibited by aversive or stressful stimuli whereas non-DA neurons were excited by such stimuli; they reported 10 of 12 DA neurons were inhibited by 10-s foot pinch whereas four of six non-DA neurons were excited by this stimulus.

(2008) solely on the basis of meta-analytical methodology. In the letter by Matthews (2011) commenting on our paper (Fountoulakis & Moller, 2010) this emphasis on methodological issues is again central. Matthews comments on the method used (pooling drug and placebo arms separately) and on the use of effect size instead of raw HAMD scores.\u0000\u0000We argue that the problem does not lie in methodological issues. We performed the re-analysis by using simple averaging, weighting by sample size, weighted by the inverse variance and also with precision weighted analysis. The differences in the results of these different approaches were not significant at all although some similarity was shown between the results of precision weighted analysis and those reported by Kirsch et al. Horder et al. are right when suggesting that the 1.80 difference can be derived with the precision weighted analysis method but the effect size with this method is not 0.32 as Kirsch et al. report, but 0.28. So no matter which method is used, it seems that Kirsch et al. had flawed calculations. To say that a method is ‘unusual’ or ‘idiosyncratic’ does not necessarily imply it is inappropriate or false. It is assumed that all trial results belong to a single distribution; that is why a meta-analysis is possible even with a random-effects model. Practically the way one groups and pools arms and trials plays little if any role. That is why ultimately, the correction of the effect size is minimal and all methods give an effect size of 0.28–0.35 and a difference in raw HAMD change from baseline between placebo and active drug of 1.78–2.93 (Table 1).
