{"title":"Aerobic Exercise: Randomized Controlled Trial Data Suggest Qualified Benefits for Erectile Dysfunction.","authors":"Chittaranjan Andrade","doi":"10.4088/JCP.24f15480","DOIUrl":"10.4088/JCP.24f15480","url":null,"abstract":"<p><p>Erectile dysfunction (ED) refers to the difficulty in achieving and maintaining a degree of penile erection that suffices for satisfactory sexual activity. ED is multifactorial in origin; its prevalence therefore varies with the population studied. In the general population, ED is present in 18-52% of men in younger to older age groups and in 43-76% of men with different medical conditions. Phosphodiesterase-5 inhibitor drugs are gold standard treatments for ED. However, because many lifestyle disorders predispose to ED and because aerobic exercise is beneficial for these lifestyle disorders, aerobic exercise may be a possible intervention for ED. In this context, a recent systematic review and meta-analysis identified 11 randomized controlled trials (RCTs; pooled N = 1,147) of aerobic exercise vs nonexercising control conditions for the treatment of ED. These RCTs had been conducted in men with different medical and surgical conditions, commonly obesity, metabolic syndrome, diabetes mellitus, and cardiovascular disease. The exercise interventions were varied but mostly involved 30-60 minutes sessions of activity, 3-5 times a week, for a median duration of 6 months. Advice for diet and weight loss was also commonly provided. The meta analysis found that aerobic exercise was significantly superior to nonexercising control conditions, with greater improvement in erectile functioning observed in subjects with greater baseline impairment. Limitations of the findings were that subjects could not be blinded to the nature of the intervention and that the magnitude of benefit with exercise, although statistically significant, fell below thresholds suggested for clinical significance. Aerobic exercise might therefore be more useful for the primary prevention of ED, for which preliminary evidence already exists. Exercise can also be recommended, along with other lifestyle guidance, to improve sexual functioning in both men and women and to improve health across a range of domains.</p>","PeriodicalId":50234,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Clinical Psychiatry","volume":"85 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.5,"publicationDate":"2024-07-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141879679","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}

{"title":"Epilepsy, Antiepileptic Drugs, and Adverse Pregnancy Outcomes, 2: Major Congenital Malformations With Antiepileptic Drug Monotherapy.","authors":"Chittaranjan Andrade","doi":"10.4088/JCP.24f15432","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.4088/JCP.24f15432","url":null,"abstract":"<p><p>Women with epilepsy (WWE) are usually advised antiepileptic drug (AED) treatment even during pregnancy. It is therefore important to know what the major congenital malformation (MCM) risks might be with untreated epilepsy, and with first-trimester exposure to different AEDs in monotherapy. This article reviews recent findings from a large multinational registry, a large multinational population based study, and a large meta-analysis. In summary, data from the meta-analysis suggest that the MCM rate is 2%-3% in women without epilepsy and about 3% in WWE who were unexposed to AEDs during pregnancy. Data from the meta analysis also suggest that the MCM rate is approximately population level at 2.6%-3.5% with levetiracetam and lamotrigine and that it is about 4%-5% with carbamazepine, 2.8%-4.8% with oxcarbazepine, about 4% with topiramate, about 5%-7% with phenytoin, about 6%-9% with phenobarbital, and nearly 10% with valproate. The MCM risk with valproate is significantly higher than that with other AEDs (including topiramate and phenobarbital) that significantly increase the risk. Data from the registry suggest that risks are dose-dependent with valproate, phenobarbital, and carbamazepine and that the risk with valproate may be as high as 25% at doses >1,450 mg/d. Valproate is also associated with a wide range of MCMs. Data from the population-based study were generally confirmatory. Strengths and limitations of the studies are considered. The findings of these studies encourage the consideration of levetiracetam or lamotrigine monotherapy for WWE who are pregnant and strongly discourage the consideration of the older AEDs, especially phenytoin and phenobarbitone, and most especially valproate. These considerations also apply to all WWE of childbearing age because it may not be easy to change AEDs when pregnancy is planned and because pregnancy is often unplanned.</p>","PeriodicalId":50234,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Clinical Psychiatry","volume":"85 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.5,"publicationDate":"2024-07-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141499511","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}
