Abstract
The post-stroke period is associated with a lot of sequelae, including depression, decreased quality of life, and decline of cognitive function. Apart from the pharmacotherapy, it is also important to find a non-pharmacological treatment to relieve the sequelae. Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) might be a potential candidate, which can be clarified by a systematic review and meta-analysis. The eligible criteria of enrolled studies in the systematic review and meta-analysis were the randomised clinical trials (RCTs) using CBT to treat post-stroke depression, or with the focus on quality of life or cognitive function in the post-stroke period. The endpoint scores of depression, quality of life, and cognitive function scales were the targeted outcome for the final meta-analysis in the random effects model. Ten RCTs with 432 post-stroke patients receiving CBT and 385 controls were included. The meta-analysis results showed significant improvements in depression severity and quality of life. However, no significant difference between CBT and control groups was found in cognitive function. In addition, significant heterogeneity was derived from the meta-analysis. According to the meta-analysis results, CBT might be beneficial for relieving depression severity and improving quality of life. However, cognitive function might not be influenced by CBT. Further studies with a more consistent CBT design with greater sample sizes should be warranted to clarify and confirm the treatment effects of CBT for post-stroke depression and quality of life.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Theoretical models of neural mechanisms underlying Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT) for major depressive disorder (MDD) propose that psychotherapy changes neural functioning of prefrontal cortical structures associated with cognitive-control processes (DeRubeis, Siegle, & Hollon, ); however, MDD is persistent and characterized by long-lasting vulnerabilities to recurrence after intervention, suggesting that underlying neural mechanisms of MDD remain despite treatment. It follows that identification of treatment-resistant aberrant neural processes in MDD may inform clinical and research efforts targeting sustained remission. Thus, we sought to identify brain regions showing aberrant neural functioning in MDD that either (1) fail to exhibit substantive change (nonresponse) or (2) exhibit functional changes (response) following CBT. METHODS To identify treatment-resistant neural processes (as well as neural processes exhibiting change after treatment), we collected functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) data of MDD patients (n = 58) before and after CBT as well as never-depressed controls (n = 35) before and after a similar amount of time. We evaluated fMRI data using conjunction analyses, which utilized several contrast-based criteria to characterize brain regions showing both differences between patients and controls at baseline and nonresponse or response to CBT. RESULTS Findings revealed nonresponse in a cerebellar region and response in prefrontal and parietal regions. CONCLUSIONS Results are consistent with prior theoretical models of CBT's direct effect on cortical regulatory processes but expand on them with identification of additional regions (and associated neural systems) of response and nonresponse to CBT.

Reward Processing During Monetary Incentive Delay Task After Leptin Substitution in Lipodystrophy-an fMRI Case Series. J Endocr Soc 2023; 7:bvad052.

Abstract
Context Behaviorally, the most pronounced effects of leptin substitution in leptin deficiency are the hunger-decreasing and postprandial satiety-prolonging effects of the adipokine. Previously, with functional magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), we and others showed that eating behavior-controlling effects are at least in part conveyed by the reward system. However, to date, it is unclear if leptin only modulates eating behavior specific brain reward action or if it also alters the reward function of the brain unrelated to eating behavior. Objective We investigated with functional MRI the effects of metreleptin on the reward system in a reward task unrelated to eating behavior, the monetary incentive delay task. Design Measurements in 4 patients with the very rare disease of lipodystrophy (LD), resulting in leptin deficiency, and 3 untreated healthy control persons were performed at 4 different time points: before start and over 12 weeks of metreleptin treatment. Inside the MRI scanner, participants performed the monetary incentive delay task and brain activity during the reward receipt phase of the trial was analyzed. Results We found a reward-related brain activity decrease in our 4 patients with LD over the 12 weeks of metreleptin treatment in the subgenual region, a brain area associated with the reward network, which was not observed in our 3 untreated healthy control persons. Conclusions These results suggest that leptin replacement in LD induces changes of brain activity during reward reception processing completely unrelated to eating behavior or food stimuli. This could suggest eating behavior-unrelated functions of leptin in the human reward system. Trial registration The trial is registered as trial No. 147/10-ek at the ethics committee of the University of Leipzig and at the State Directorate of Saxony (Landesdirektion Sachsen).

Neural responsiveness to reward and suicidal ideation in social anxiety and major depression before and after psychotherapy. Biol Psychol 2023; 178:108520. [PMID: 36801433 PMCID: PMC10106432 DOI: 10.1016/j.biopsycho.2023.108520] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/19/2022] [Revised: 01/23/2023] [Accepted: 02/15/2023] [Indexed: 02/19/2023]
Abstract
Suicidality is prevalent in Social Anxiety Disorder (SAD) and Major Depressive Disorder (MDD). Limited data indicate the reward positivity (RewP), a neurophysiological index of reward responsivity, and subjective capacity for pleasure may serve as brain and behavioral assays for suicide risk though this has yet to be examined in SAD or MDD in the context of psychotherapy. Therefore, the current study tested whether suicidal ideation (SI) relates to RewP and subjective capacity for anticipatory and consummatory pleasure at baseline and whether Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) impacts these measures. Participants with SAD (n = 55) or MDD (n = 54) completed a monetary reward task (gains vs. losses) during electroencephalogram (EEG) before being randomized to CBT or supportive therapy (ST), a comparator common factors arm. EEG and SI data were collected at baseline, mid-treatment, and post-treatment; capacity for pleasure was collected at baseline and post-treatment. Baseline results showed participants with SAD or MDD were comparable in SI, RewP, and capacity for pleasure. When controlling for symptom severity, SI negatively corresponded with RewP following gains and SI positively corresponded with RewP following losses at baseline. Yet, SI did not relate to subjective capacity for pleasure. Evidence of a distinct SI-RewP association suggests RewP may serve as a transdiagnositic brain-based marker of SI. Treatment outcome revealed that among participants with SI at baseline, SI significantly decreased regardless of treatment arm; also, consummatory, but not anticipatory, pleasure increased across participants regardless of treatment arm. RewP was stable following treatment, which has been reported in other clinical trial studies.

Changes of anhedonia and cognitive symptoms in first episode of depression and recurrent depression, an analysis of data from NSSD. J Affect Disord 2023; 321:47-55. [PMID: 36273683 DOI: 10.1016/j.jad.2022.10.015] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/24/2022] [Revised: 10/05/2022] [Accepted: 10/16/2022] [Indexed: 11/06/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Anhedonia and cognitive impairment are core features of major depressive disorder (MDD), and are essential to the treatment and prognosis. Here, we aimed to investigate anhedonia and its cognitive correlates between first episode of depression (FED) and recurrent depression (RD), which was part of the National Survey on Symptomatology of Depression. METHODS In this study, 1400 drug naïve FED patients and 487 on medicine RD patients were included. Differences of anhedonia, cognitive symptoms and other clinical characteristics between groups were compared via Student's t-test, or the chi-square test as appropriate. Partial correlation analysis was used to analyze the correlations between anhedonia and cognitive symptoms after adjusting for potential confounders. A stepwise logistic regression analysis was performed to identify relapse risk factors among symptomatic variables, demographic factors, clinical characteristics and medication use. RESULTS Compared to FED, RD patients displayed more comprehensive depressive, impaired cognitive and anhedonia symptoms. Cognitive symptoms were significantly related with the anhedonia symptoms with varying aspects. Patients taking emotional stabilizers displayed more abnormal cognitive symptoms, followed by benzodiazepines, and finally SSRIs, SNRIs and TCAs. The effect of drug use on anhedonia is not as extensive as that of cognitive symptoms. CONCLUSION Collectively, the results of this investigation advance the knowledge on changes in anhedonia and cognitive symptoms in MDD. LIMITATIONS As this is a cross sectional study, it is difficult to draw any causal conclusions between cognitive impairment and anhedonia in MDD, and to ascertain the worse cognitive performances identified here were induced by current drug use.
