Associations between sarcopenia and white matter alterations in older adults with diabetes mellitus: A diffusion tensor imaging study.

Aug 06, 2020

Older adults with diabetes mellitus are susceptible to sarcopenia. Diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) studies have also indicated that patients with diabetes have altered white matter integrity. However, ...

JNK signaling regulates cellular mechanics of cortical interneuron migration.

Aug 03, 2020

Aberrant migration of inhibitory interneurons can alter the formation of cortical circuitry and lead to severe neurological disorders including epilepsy, autism, and schizophrenia. However, mechanisms...

Coprescription of mood stabilizers in schizophrenia, dosing, and clinical correlates: An international study.

Aug 03, 2020

Studies examining coprescription and dosages of mood stabilizers (MSs) with antipsychotics for psychotic disorders are infrequent. Based on sparse extant data and clinical experience, we hypothesized ...

Exposure to Elevated Embryonic Kynurenine in Rats: Sex-dependent Learning and Memory Impairments in Adult Offspring.

Aug 03, 2020

Distinct abnormalities in kynurenine pathway (KP) metabolism have been reported in various psychiatric disorders, including schizophrenia (SZ). Kynurenic acid (KYNA), a neuroactive metabolite of the K...

Systematic review and meta-analysis of olfactive stimulation interventions to manage procedural pain in preterm and full-term neonates.

Aug 03, 2020

Preterm and full-term neonates undergo many painful procedures during their hospitalization in the neonatal intensive care unit. Unrelieved and repeated pain can have important repercussions on their ...

Brain-derived neurotrophic factor and nerve growth factor concentrations in maternal and umbilical cord blood of opium addicted mothers.

Aug 03, 2020

It is reported that opium consumption during pregnancy is associated with adverse pregnancy outcomes and neurodevelopmental defects in infants. BDNF and NGF alterations during pregnancy cause neurobeh...

Double jeopardy in the United States: Early onset bipolar disorder and treatment delay.

Aug 03, 2020

Evidence is emerging that early onset bipolar disorder and the duration of the delay to first treatment are both risk factors for poor treatment outcome. We report on the incidence and implications of...

Resting-state functional connectivity of neural circuits associated with primary and secondary rewards in patients with bipolar disorder.

Aug 03, 2020

We used resting-state functional connectivity (rsFC) to evaluate the integrity of the neural circuits associated with primary and secondary rewards in bipolar disorder (BD) with different mood phases....

Role of epigenetic regulatory enzymes in animal models of mania induced by amphetamine and paradoxal sleep deprivation.

Aug 03, 2020

It is known that bipolar disorder has a multifactorial etiology where the interaction between genetic and environmental factors are responsible for it development. Because of this, epigenetics has bee...

Relation of promoter methylation of the structural oxytocin gene to critical life events in major depression: A case control study.

Aug 03, 2020

Stressful life events (SLEs) are associated with hyper(re-)activity of the HPA-axis. HPA-axis hyper(re-)activity is thought to be a major risk factor for depression development. SLEs may induce change...

The relationship of tryptophan hydroxylase-2 methylation to early-life stress and its impact on short-term antidepressant treatment response.

Aug 03, 2020

The gene tryptophan hydroxylase 2 (TPH2) encodes the associated rate-limiting enzyme in the biosynthesis 5-HT (serotonin). Early life stress and adult variability in TPH2 can correspond with diminishe...

Disrupted dynamic functional connectivity in right amygdalar subregions differentiates bipolar disorder from major depressive disorder.

Aug 03, 2020

Notwithstanding being the object of a growing field of clinical research, the investigation of the dynamic resting-state functional connectivity alterations in psychiatric illnesses is still in its ea...

Community Attitudes Toward Opioid Use Disorder and Medication for Opioid Use Disorder in a Rural Appalachian County.

Aug 03, 2020

To evaluate community attitudes concerning opioid use disorder (OUD) and medication for opioid use disorder (MOUD) in a rural community, and to plan educational initiatives to reduce stigma surroundin...

Quadratus lumborum block for postoperative analgesia after cesarean delivery: A systematic review with meta-analysis and trial-sequential analysis.

Aug 03, 2020

The aim of this study was to investigate the analgesic efficacy of Quadratus lumborum block (QLB) versus controls, transversus abdominis plane (TAP) block and neuraxial morphine, or when added to neur...

Association between timing of kyphoplasty and opioid prescribing risk after vertebral fracture.

Aug 03, 2020

Approximately 550,000 Americans experience vertebral fracture annually, and most receive opioids to treat the resulting pain. Kyphoplasty of the fractured vertebra is a procedural alternative that may...

Acute effects of Adaptive Deep Brain Stimulation in Parkinson's disease.

Aug 03, 2020

Beta-based adaptive Deep Brain Stimulation (aDBS) is effective in Parkinson's disease (PD), when assessed in the immediate post-implantation phase. However, the potential benefits of aDBS in patients ...

Evaluation and optimization of common lipid extraction methods in cerebrospinal fluid samples.

Aug 03, 2020

A typical lipidomics approach aims at the simultaneous analysis of a multitude of lipid species from different lipid classes with highest possible sensitivity for all target lipids. Efficient extracti...

Monoterpene indole alkaloids with acetylcholinesterase inhibitory activity from the leaves of Rauvolfia vomitoria.

Aug 03, 2020

Seventeen monoterpene indole alkaloids, including seven new alkaloids (1-7) and ten known analogues (8-17), were isolated and identified from the leaves of R. vomitoria. The structures of new alkaloid...

Multimorbidity and psychotropic polypharmacy among participants with autism spectrum disorder with intellectual disability.

Aug 03, 2020

Nowadays, adults with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) experience several comorbidities whose treatment implies a wide range of psychotropic prescriptions. This study aimed to evaluate medication-relate...
