Abstract
The prohibition of antipsychotic drugs in animal foodstuffs has raised significant concerns. In this study, a novel matrix purification adsorbent comprising a polymer (polyaniline and polypyrrole)-functionalized melamine sponge (Ms) was employed for the high performance liquid chromatography-diode array detector (HPLC-DAD) detection of three phenothiazines (chlorpromazine, thioridazine, and promethazine), and a tricyclic imipramine in milk. The as-prepared functionalized Ms was characterized using scanning electron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, and water contact angle measurements. Excellent linearity with a coefficient of determination (R2) of 0.999 was achieved for all drugs within the concentration range of 0.01-47.00 μg mL-1. The recoveries of the four analytes ranged from 92.1 % to 106.9 % at the three spiked levels. These results demonstrate the successful application of the proposed method for the determination of the four drugs. Cost-effective polymer-functionalized Ms is a viable alternative for matrix purification, enabling rapid determination of drug residues in diverse food samples.

Abstract
A decrease in the levels of antioxidant arsenals exacerbate generation of reactive oxygen/nitrogen species, leading to neurochemical dysfunction, with significant impact on the pathogenesis of psychotic disorders such as schizophrenia. This study examined the preventive and reversal effects of diosgenin, a phyto-steroidal saponin with antioxidant functions in mice treated with ketamine which closely replicates schizophrenia-like symptoms in human and laboratory animals. In the preventive phase, adult mice cohorts were clustered into 5 groups (n = 9). Groups 1 and 2 received saline (10 mL/kg, i.p.), groups 3 and 4 were pretreated with diosgenin (25 and 50 mg/kg), and group 5 received risperidone (0.5 mg/kg) orally for 14 days. Mice in groups 2-5 additionally received a daily dose of ketamine (20 mg/kg, i.p.) or saline (10 mL/kg/day, i.p.). In the reversal phase, mice received intraperitoneal injection of ketamine or saline for 14 consecutive days prior to diosgenin (25 and 50 mg/kg/p.o./day) and risperidone (0.5 mg/kg/p.o./day) treatment from days 8-14. Mice were assessed for behavioral changes. Oxidative, nitrergic markers, and cholinergic (acetylcholinesterase activity) transmission were examined in the striatum, prefrontal-cortex and hippocampus. Diosgenin prevented and reversed hyperlocomotion, cognitive and social deficits in mice treated with ketamine relative to ketamine groups. The increased acetylcholinesterase, malondialdehyde and nitrite levels produced by ketamine were reduced by diosgenin in the striatum, prefrontal-cortex and hippocampus, but did not reverse striatal nitrite level. Diosgenin increased glutathione, and catalase levels, except for hippocampal catalase activity when compared with ketamine controls. Conclusively, these biochemical changes might be related to the behavioral deficits in ketamine-treated mice, which were prevented and reversed by diosgenin.

Abstract
Antipsychotic drugs (APDs) are the primary pharmacological treatment for schizophrenia, a complex disorder characterized by altered neuronal connectivity. Atypical or second-generation antipsychotics, such as Risperidone (RSP) and Clozapine (CZP) predominantly block dopaminergic D2 and serotonin receptor 2A (5-HT2A) neurotransmission. Both compounds also exhibit affinity for the 5-HT7R, with RSP acting as an antagonist and CZP as an inverse agonist. Our study aimed to determine whether RSP and CZP can influence neuronal morphology through a 5-HT7R-mediated mechanism. Here, we demonstrated that CZP promotes neurite outgrowth of early postnatal cortical neurons, and the 5-HT7R mediates its effect. Conversely, RSP leads to a reduction of neurite length of early postnatal cortical neurons, in a 5-HT7R-independent way. Furthermore, we found that the effects of CZP, mediated by 5-HT7R activation, require the participation of ERK and Cdk5 kinase pathways. At the same time, the modulation of neurite length by RSP does not involve these pathways. In conclusion, our findings provide valuable insights into the morphological changes induced by these two APDs in neurons and elucidate some of the associated molecular pathways. Investigating the 5-HT7R-dependent signaling pathways underlying the neuronal morphogenic effects of APDs may contribute to the identification of novel targets for the treatment of schizophrenia.

Abstract
AIMS Past observational studies have reported on the association between antipsychotic drugs and venous thromboembolism (VTE); however, the conclusions remain controversial, and its mechanisms are yet to be fully understood. Thus, in this study, we aim to determine the associations of antipsychotic drugs with VTE, including deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolism (PE), and their potential mechanisms. METHODS We first mined the adverse event signals of VTE, DVT, and PE caused by antipsychotic drugs in Food and Drug Administration Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS). Next, we used two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) method to investigate the association of antipsychotic drug target gene expression with VTE, DVT, and PE, using single-nucleotide polymorphisms as genetic instruments. We not only used the expression of all antipsychotic drug target genes as exposure to perform MR analyses but also analyzed the effect of single target gene expression on the outcomes. RESULTS In the FAERS, 1694 cases of VTE events were reported by 16 drugs. However, using the MR approach, no significant association was determined between the expression of all antipsychotic target genes and VTE, DVT, or PE, either in blood or brain tissue. Although the analysis of single gene expression data showed that the expression of nine genes was associated with VTE events, these targets lacked significant pharmacological action. CONCLUSIONS Adverse event mining results have supported the claim that antipsychotic drugs can increase the risk of VTE. However, we failed to find any genetic evidence for this causal association and potential mechanisms. Thus, vigilance is still needed for antipsychotic drug-related VTE despite the limited supporting evidence.

Abstract
CONTEXT Electronic durable behavior on the material surface was accompanied by a class of antipsychotic drugs (APD) to describe the surface modification in the designed adsorption model. Hierarchically Zn-MOF system was utilized for estimating its capacity for drug molecule removal. Geometrically optimized strategy on the studied systems was performed using DFT/GGA/PBE. FMOs analysis was depicted based on the same level of calculations, and molecular electrostatic potential surface (MEP) was generated for unadsorbed and adsorbed systems to illustrate the variation in the surface-active sites. By interpreting the electronic density of states (DOS), the atomic orbital can be identified as a major or minor electronic distribution by PDOS graph. Adsorption locating behavior was considered to detect the significant surface interaction mode between APD and Zn-MOF surface based on lower adsorption energy. The stability of the adsorbed model was best described through dynamic simulation analysis with time through elevated temperatures. The non-covalent interactions were described using RDG/NCI analysis to show the major favorable surface interaction predicting the highly stable adsorption system. METHODS The most accurate geometrical computations were performed using the materials studio software followed by surface cleavage and vacuum slab generation. The first principle of DFT was used to apply CASTEP module with GGA/PBE method for band structure and DOS calculations. Three systems of antipsychotic drugs were computationally studied using CASTEP simulation package and adsorbed on an optimized Zn-MOF surface. Adsorption locator module predicted the preferred adsorption mechanistic models, in which the first model was arranged to be more stable, to confirm the occurrence of some interactions in the adsorption mechanism.

Abstract
Due to the complexity of biological sample matrix, the automated and high-throughput pretreatment technology is urgently needed for monitoring the antipsychotic drugs for mental patients. In this study, functionalized magnetic zirconium-based organic framework nanocomposites (Fe3O4@SiO2@Zr-MOFs) were successfully designed and synthesized by the layer-by-layer growth. Among them, Fe3O4@SiO2@UiO-67-COOH showed the best adsorption performance, and at the same time it exhibited excellent water dispersibility, high thermal stability, chemical stability and high hydrophobicity. Results of adsorption kinetics, isotherm and FT-IR showed that the adsorption process was dominated by chemical adsorption (hydrogen bond, electrostatic interaction, π-π interaction) and monolayer adsorption. Moreover, the smaller pore size improved the protein exclusion rate which reached 98.9-99.8%. Based on the above result, the synthesized magnetic nanoparticles were introduced to 96-well automatic extractor, antipsychotic drugs in 96 serum samples were automatically extracted within 9 min, which most greatly saved the time and labor costs and avoided artificial errors. By further integrating with ultra-high performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS/MS), antipsychotic drugs can be detected in the range of 0.2-3.0 ng mL-1 with a quantitative limit of 0.06-0.9 ng mL-1. The recoveries of antipsychotic drugs and their metabolites in serum ranged from 95.7% to 112.3% within 1.4-6.5% of RSD. These features indicate that the proposed method is promising for high throughput and sensitively monitoring of drugs and other hazardous substances.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Natural language processing (NLP) may help evaluate the characteristics, prevalence, trajectory, treatment, and outcomes of behavioural disturbance phenotypes in critically ill patients. METHODS We obtained electronic clinical notes, demographic information, outcomes, and treatment data from three medical-surgical ICUs. Using NLP, we screened for behavioural disturbance phenotypes based on words suggestive of an agitated state, a non-agitated state, or a combination of both. RESULTS We studied 2931 patients. Of these, 225 (7.7%) were NLP-Dx-BD positive for the agitated phenotype, 544 (18.6%) for the non-agitated phenotype and 667 (22.7%) for the combined phenotype. Patients with these phenotypes carried multiple clinical baseline differences. On time-dependent multivariable analysis to compensate for immortal time bias and after adjustment for key outcome predictors, agitated phenotype patients were more likely to receive antipsychotic medications (odds ratio [OR] 1.84, 1.35-2.51, p < 0.001) compared to non-agitated phenotype patients but not compared to combined phenotype patients (OR 1.27, 0.86-1.89, p = 0.229). Moreover, agitated phenotype patients were more likely to die than other phenotypes patients (OR 1.57, 1.10-2.25, p = 0.012 vs non-agitated phenotype; OR 4.61, 2.14-9.90, p < 0.001 vs. combined phenotype). This association was strongest in patients receiving mechanical ventilation when compared with the combined phenotype (OR 7.03, 2.07-23.79, p = 0.002). A similar increased risk was also seen for patients with the non-agitated phenotype compared with the combined phenotype (OR 6.10, 1.80-20.64, p = 0.004). CONCLUSIONS NLP-Dx-BD screening enabled identification of three behavioural disturbance phenotypes with different characteristics, prevalence, trajectory, treatment, and outcome. Such phenotype identification appears relevant to prognostication and trial design.

Abstract
It is well known that antipsychotic drugs (APDs) are more effective in reducing symptoms in women than in men, and that women are more sensitive to the side effects of APDs. Therefore, it is of great importance that sex differences in drug responses are considered already in the early stages of drug development. In this study, we investigated whether sex-specific differences could be observed in response to the commonly prescribed APDs olanzapine and risperidone using the conditioned avoidance response (CAR) test. To this end we tested the effect of 1.25 and 2.5 mg/kg olanzapine and 0.25 and 0.4 mg/kg risperidone using female and male Wistar rats in the CAR test. Whereas there were no significant differences between the female and male rats in response to either dose of olanzapine administration, an injection of 0.4 mg/kg risperidone significantly suppressed avoidance more in female rats than in male rats. In addition, we found that the estrous cycle of the female rats did not have a significant effect on the avoidance response. In conclusion, we show that there are sex-specific differences as well as similarities between female and male rats in the CAR test and novel APDs should be tested on female and male rats in the future.

Abstract
Antipsychotic drug-induced myocarditis is a serious and potentially fatal adverse drug reaction characterized by inflammation of the heart muscle (myocardium) that typically develops within the first month after commencing an antipsychotic drug. Although the precise mechanism of this severe adverse drug reaction is unknown, multiple theories have been proposed with varying levels of support from cellular or animal studies. We conducted a systematic review, in accordance with PRISMA guidelines, of published preclinical and clinical studies investigating the cellular mechanism by which antipsychotic drugs induce myocarditis. A literature search including all studies available before December 10, 2022, yielded 15 studies that met our inclusion criteria. Antipsychotics examined in the included studies included clozapine (n = 13), ziprasidone (n = 1), amisulpride (n = 1), haloperidol (n = 1), levomepromazine (n = 1), olanzapine (n = 1), and sertindole (n = 1). The evidence suggests several overlapping mechanistic cascades involving: (1) increased levels of catecholamines, (2) increased proinflammatory cytokines, (3) increased reactive oxygen species (ROS), (4) reduced antioxidant levels and activity, and (5) mitochondrial damage. Notable limitations such as, a focus on clozapine, sample heterogeneity, and use of supratherapeutic doses will need to be addressed in future studies. Discovery of the mechanism by which antipsychotic drugs induce myocarditis will allow the development of clinically-useful biomarkers to identify those patients at increased risk prior to drug exposure. The development or repurposing of therapeutics to prevent or treat drug-induced myocarditis will also be possible and this will enable increased and safe use of antipsychotics for those patients in need.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Quetiapine has varied dose ranges and immediate-(QTP-IR) and extended-release (QTP-ER) formulations. AIMS We hypothesized that QTP-IR is inferior to QTP-ER at any dose in efficacy for the acute treatment in schizophrenia and tested using a dose-response model-based network meta-analysis (NMA). METHODS We searched PubMed, the Cochrane Library, CINHAL, and ClinicalTrials.gov for randomized placebo-controlled trials comparing QTP-IR and/or QTP-ER for acute psychosis in patients with schizophrenia up to September 21, 2022. A random effect Bayesian dose-response model-based NMA was performed to compare the dose-response relationships between QTP-IR and QTP-ER. RESULTS The relationship between doses and antipsychotic effects was partially bell-shaped for QTP-IR but not for QTP-ER. The respective peak effect dose was 279.7 mg for QTP-IR and 557.2 mg for QTP-ER, with no significant difference in peak effect. QTP-IR ranging from 100 to 300 mg were significantly superior to QTP-ER at the same doses. In addition, QTP-IR ranging from 100 to 400 mg were significantly better than placebo, whereas QTP-ER ranging from 500 to 800 mg were significantly more effective than placebo. Moreover, QTP-IR 600 mg was significantly less effective than QTP-ER at the same dose. Furthermore, QTP-IR 700 mg was significantly superior to placebo, but significantly inferior to QTP-ER 600 mg. CONCLUSIONS QTP-IR may reach comparable peak responses and exhibit enhanced antipsychotic effects at lower doses than QTP-ER; the converse may be true at relatively high doses. Collectively, we propose a novel strategy to enhance the efficacy of QTP administration.

Abstract
Although there is presently no cure for Parkinson's disease (PD), the available therapies are only able to lessen symptoms and preserve the quality of life. Around 10 million people globally had PD as of 2020. The widely used standard drug has recently been revealed to have several negative effects. Additionally, there is a dearth of innovative compounds entering the market as a result of subpar ADMET characteristics. Drug repurposing provides a chance to reenergize the sluggish drug discovery process by identifying new applications for already-approved medications. As this strategy offers a practical way to speed up the process of developing alternative medications for PD. This study used a computer-aided technique to select therapeutic agent(s) from FDA-approved neuropsychiatric/psychotic drugs that can be adopted in the treatment of Parkinson's disease. In the current work, a computational approach via molecular docking, density functional theory (DFT), and pharmacokinetics were used to identify possible (anti)neuropsychiatric/psychotic medications for the treatment of PD. By using molecular docking, about eight (anti)neuropsychiatric/psychotic medications were tested against PARKIN, a key protein in PD. Based on the docking score, the best ligand in the trial was determined. The top hits were compared to the reference ligand levodopa (L-DOPA). A large proportion of the drugs displayed binding affinity that was relatively higher than L-DOPA. Also, DFT analysis confirms the ligand-receptor interactions and the molecular charge transfer. All the compounds were found to obey Lipinski's rule with acceptable pharmacokinetic properties. The current study has revealed the effectiveness of antineuropsychiatric/antipsychotic drugs against PARKIN in the treatment of PD and lumateperone was revealed to be the most promising candidate interacting with PARKIN.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Prescribing the optimal antipsychotic treatment to schizophrenia is very important as it is well established that patients have different sensitivity to the available antipsychotic drugs. The genotype of the HTR2A T102C (rs6313) polymorphism has been suggested to affect the efficacy of antipsychotic drugs, but the results of different studies have been inconsistent METHODS: In this study, a meta-analysis was used to ascertain the association between allele and genotype polymorphism of rs6313 and the efficacy of antipsychotic drugs. Related studies publicated from January 1995 to December 2021 were retrieved from PubMed, Embase, ScienceDirect, and Web of Science databases. The correlations between allele and genotype polymorphism of rs6313 and the responder rate and scale score reduction rate of antipsychotics were analyzed. In addition, subgroup analyses were performed on time, drug, and ethnicity. RESULTS A total of 18 studies were included. The meta-analysis showed that allele and genotype polymorphisms at the rs6313 locus overall were not associated with antipsychotic drug responder rate or scale score reduction rate. Ethnicity subgroup analysis showed that antipsychotic drugs were more effective in patients with allele T in the Caucasian population. Indian patients with the TT genotype had the lowest scale score reduction rate and poor drug treatment effect. East Asian patients with the TC genotype had better treatment effect, whereas in patients with the CC genotype, the treatment was less effective. Drug subgroup analysis showed that patients with the TC genotype treated with clozapine had the highest responder rate and score reduction rate. CONCLUSIONS The association between rs6313 polymorphism and the efficacy of antipsychotic drugs is mainly influenced by drug and ethnicity. Caucasian patients with the T allele respond better to drug therapy, and Asian patients with TC genotype. The TC genotype was also a good predictor of the efficacy of clozapine treatment.

Abstract
Cholesterol is an important component of mammalian cell membranes affecting their fluidity and permeability. Together with sphingomyelin, cholesterol forms microdomains, called lipid rafts. They play important role in signal transduction forming platforms for interaction of signal proteins. Altered levels of cholesterol are known to be strongly associated with the development of various pathologies (e.g., cancer, atherosclerosis and cardiovascular diseases). In the present work, the group of compounds that share the property of affecting cellular homeostasis of cholesterol was studied. It contained antipsychotic and antidepressant drugs, as well as the inhibitors of cholesterol biosynthesis, simvastatin, betulin, and its derivatives. All compounds were demonstrated to be cytotoxic to colon cancer cells but not to non-cancerous cells. Moreover, the most active compounds decreased the level of free cellular cholesterol. The interaction of drugs with raft-mimicking model membranes was visualized. All compounds reduced the size of lipid domains, however, only some affected their number and shape. Membrane interactions of betulin and its novel derivatives were characterized in detail. Molecular modeling indicated that high dipole moment and significant lipophilicity were characteristic for the most potent antiproliferative agents. The importance of membrane interactions of cholesterol homeostasis-affecting compounds, especially betulin derivatives, for their anticancer potency was suggested.

Abstract
Antipsychotic drugs are prescribed to a wide range of individuals to treat mental health conditions including schizophrenia. However, antipsychotic drugs cause bone loss and increase fracture risk. We previously found that the atypical antipsychotic (AA) drug risperidone causes bone loss through multiple pharmacological mechanisms, including activation of the sympathetic nervous system in mice treated with clinically relevant doses. However, bone loss was dependent upon housing temperature, which modulates sympathetic activity. Another AA drug, olanzapine, has substantial metabolic side effects, including weight gain and insulin resistance, but it is unknown whether bone and metabolic outcomes of olanzapine are also dependent upon housing temperature in mice. We therefore treated eight week-old female mice with vehicle or olanzapine for four weeks, housed at either room temperature (23 °C) or thermoneutrality (28-30 °C), which has previously been shown to be positive for bone. Olanzapine caused significant trabecular bone loss (-13% BV/TV), likely through increased RANKL-dependent osteoclast resorption, which was not suppressed by thermoneutral housing. Additionally, olanzapine inhibited cortical bone expansion at thermoneutrality, but did not alter cortical bone expansion at room temperature. Olanzapine also increased markers of thermogenesis within brown and inguinal adipose depots independent of housing temperature. Overall, olanzapine causes trabecular bone loss and inhibits the positive effect of thermoneutral housing on bone. Understanding how housing temperature modulates the impact of AA drugs on bone is important for future pre-clinical studies, as well as for the prescription of AA drugs, particularly to older adults and adolescents who are most vulnerable to the effects on bone.

Abstract
With the goal to increase knowledge on the healthcare impact of the post-COVID-19 condition we exploited the administrative claims database of Lombardy, the largest Italian region and the first after China to be heavily hit by the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic in February-May 2020. We chose to employ the dispensation of drugs and diagnostic tests as proxies of the impact of the post-COVID condition in 46,574 cases who recovered from COVID-19 and were negative at PCR testing within June 20, 2020. Data were obtained throughout the 18-month post-negativization period until December 2021 and results on the use of drugs and diagnostic tests were compared with those accrued in the same cases during the pre-COVID period in July-December 2019. After an increase in the first semester after SARS-CoV-2 negativization (July-December 2020), trends in the dispensation of drugs according to the broad ATC classes and of diagnostic tests decreased or remained substantially stable. However, dispensation of drugs for acid related disorders (A02), diabetes (A10), heparins (B01AB), direct oral anticoagulants (B01AP), antipsychotics (N05A), antidepressants (N06A) and for obstructive airways diseases (R03) was still higher than in the pre-COVID period. These findings, based upon drug and diagnostic test dispensation as proxies of the healthcare impact of the post-COVID condition, show that in a substantial proportion of recovered cases the post-COVID condition is active and clinically relevant 18 months after the acute disease. The findings also provide indirect evidence of the body organs and systems more compromised in the post-COVID period.

Abstract
Metabolic side effects of antipsychotic drugs can have serious health consequences and may increase mortality. Although persons with schizophrenia often take these drugs for a long time, their mid- to long-term metabolic effects have been studied little so far. This study aimed to evaluate the mid- to long-term metabolic side effects of 31 antipsychotics in persons with schizophrenia by applying a random-effects Bayesian network meta-analysis. We searched the Cochrane Schizophrenia Group's Study-Based Register of Trials (up to April 27, 2020) and PubMed (up to June 14, 2021). We included published and unpublished, open and blinded randomized controlled trials with a study duration >13 weeks which compared any antipsychotic in any form of administration with another antipsychotic or with placebo in participants diagnosed with schizophrenia. The primary outcome was weight gain measured in kilograms. Secondary outcomes included "number of participants with weight gain", fasting glucose, total cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, and triglycerides. We identified 137 eligible trials (with 35,007 participants) on 31 antipsychotics, with a median follow-up of 45 weeks. Chlorpromazine produced the most weight gain (mean difference to placebo: 5.13 kg, 95% credible interval, CrI: 1.98 to 8.30), followed by clozapine (4.21 kg, 95% CrI: 3.03 to 5.42), olanzapine (3.82 kg, 95% CrI: 3.15 to 4.50), and zotepine (3.87 kg, 95% CrI: 2.14 to 5.58). The findings did not substantially change in sensitivity and network meta-regression analyses, although enriched design, drug company sponsorship, and the use of observed case instead of intention-to-treat data modified the mean difference in weight gain to some extent. Antipsychotics with more weight gain were often also among the drugs with worse outcome in fasting glucose and lipid parameters. The confidence in the evidence ranged from low to moderate. In conclusion, antipsychotic drugs differ in their propensity to induce metabolic side effects in mid- to long-term treatment. Given that schizophrenia is often a chronic disorder, these findings should be given more consideration than short-term data in drug choice.

Abstract
Although reducing psychotic symptoms in schizophrenia has been a major focus of therapeutic interventions for decades, improving cognition is considered a better predictor of functional outcomes. However, the most commonly prescribed antipsychotic drugs (APDs) show only marginal beneficial effects on cognition in patients with schizophrenia. The neural mechanisms underlying cognitive disturbances in schizophrenia remain unknown that making drug development efforts very challenging. Since neurotrophic factors are the primary architects of neurogenesis, synaptic plasticity, learning, and memory, the findings from preclinical and clinical studies that assess changes in neurogenesis and neurotrophic factors and their relationship to cognitive performance in schizophrenia, and how these mechanisms might be impacted by APD treatment, may provide valuable clues in developing therapies to combat cognitive deficit in schizophrenia. Numerous evidence produced over the years suggests a deficit in a wide spectrum of neurotrophic factors in schizophrenia. Since schizophrenia is considered a neurodevelopmental disorder, early intervention with neurotrophic factors may be more effective in ameliorating the cognitive deficits and psychopathological symptoms associated with this pathology. In this context, results from initial clinical trials with neurotrophic factors and their future potential to improve cognition and psychosocial functioning in schizophrenia are discussed.

Abstract
The Third Argentine Consensus on the management of bipolar disorders (TB) is an initiative of the Argentine Association of Biological Psychiatry (AAPB). As a reference document, this consensus pursues two main objectives: on the one hand, to summarize and systematize the best available evidence on the comprehensive management of this pathology; on the other, to provide a useful, up-to-date instrument for psychiatrists, multidisciplinary teams dedicated to mental health, and government agencies. During a period of approximately six months of work -that is, from May to October 2022- a
committee of experts made up of 18 professionals and representatives of the three most important Psychiatry and Mental Health associations in Argentina (that is, the AAPB, the Argentine Association of Psychiatrists, AAP, and the Association of Argentine Psychiatrists, APSA) have focused on updating the information regarding TB. Finally, this document was prepared as a result of an exhaustive review of the bibliography published to date, which was strategically divided into three parts: the first deals with the generalities of TB; the second deals with the comprehensive treatment of the
pathology; finally, the third analyzes TB in the context of special situations.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Antipsychotic drugs are an important part of the treatment of irritability and aggression in children with an autism spectrum disorder (ASD). However, significant weight gain and metabolic disturbances are clinically relevant side effects of antipsychotic use in children. In the SPACe study, we showed positive correlations between both risperidone and aripiprazole plasma trough concentrations and weight gain over a 6-month period. The trial SPACe 2: STAR is designed as a follow-up study, in which we aim to research whether therapeutic drug monitoring in clinical practice can prevent severe weight gain, while retaining clinical effectiveness. METHODS SPACe 2: STAR is an international, multicentre, randomised controlled trial (RCT). One hundred forty children aged 6 to 18 who are about to start risperidone or aripiprazole treatment for ASD related behavioural problems will be randomised into one of two groups: a therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) group, and a care as usual (CAU) group. Participants will be assessed at baseline and 4, 10, 24, and 52 weeks follow-up. In the TDM group, physicians will receive dosing advice based on plasma levels of risperidone and aripiprazole and its metabolites at 4 and 10 weeks. Plasma levels will be measured in dried blood spots (DBS). The primary outcome will be BMI z-score at 24 weeks after start of antipsychotic treatment. Among the secondary outcomes are effectiveness, metabolic laboratory measurements, levels of prolactin, leptin and ghrelin, extrapyramidal side effects, and quality of life. DISCUSSION This will be the first RCT evaluating the effect of TDM of antipsychotic drugs in children and adolescents. Thus, findings from SPACe 2: STAR will be of great value in optimising treatment in this vulnerable population. TRIAL REGISTRATION ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT05146245. EudraCT number: 2020-005450-18. Sponsor protocol name: SPACe2STAR. Registered 8 June 2021. Protocol Version 6, Protocol date: 18 august 2022.

Abstract
PURPOSE To study the prevalence and directionality of comorbid epilepsy and psychosis in Norway. METHODS The Norwegian Prescription Database (NorPD) provided individual-based information on all antiseizure medications (ASMs) and antipsychotic drugs (APDs) dispensed during 2004-2017. Subjects were ≥18 years of age at the end of the study period. Diagnosis-specific reimbursement codes from the 10th revision of the International Classification of Diseases/2nd edition of the International Classification of Primary Care (ICD-10/ICPC-2) combined with ATC codes were used as indicators of diagnosis. Subjects had collected ASMs for epilepsy or APDs for psychosis at least four times, at least once issued with an ICD-10 code from the specialist healthcare service. Directionality was analyzed in subjects receiving both treatments. To reduce prevalent comorbidity bias, we employed a four-year comorbidity-free period (2004-2007). The use of specific ASMs and APDs was analyzed. RESULTS A total of 31,289 subjects had collected an ASM for epilepsy at least four times, 28,889 an APD for psychosis. Both the prevalence of treatment for epilepsy and of treatment for psychosis was 0.8%. Further, 891 subjects had been treated for both conditions; 2.8% with epilepsy had been treated for psychosis, and 3.1% with psychosis had been treated for epilepsy. Among 558 subjects included in the analyses of directionality, 56% had collected the first APD before an ASM, whereas 41% had collected an ASM first. During the last year prior to comorbidity onset, levetiracetam, topiramate, or zonisamide had been used for epilepsy by approximately 40%, whereas olanzapine and quetiapine were most used in patients with psychosis, and clozapine in 13%. CONCLUSION The proportion of patients with prior antipsychotic treatment at onset of epilepsy is higher than previously acknowledged, as demonstrated in this nation-wide study. Apart from a shared neurobiological susceptibility, the bidirectionality of epilepsy and psychosis may be influenced by various environmental factors, including the interaction of pharmacodynamic effects. APDs may facilitate seizures; ASMs may induce psychiatric symptoms. In patients with combined treatment, these potential drug effects should receive ample attention, along with the psychosocial consequences of the disorders. A prudent multi-professional approach is required.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Patients with mental disorders are at increased risk of premature mortality. Psychiatric inpatients are a particularly vulnerable population, yet data on the mortality rate and causes of death among psychiatric inpatients in a national sample are scarce. METHODS We analyzed data collected from patients who died during psychiatric hospitalization in 2019 and 2020 from 41 psychiatric hospitals in China. RESULTS In total, 719 inpatients died over the study period. There were more deaths in 2019 (N = 409, 56.9%) compared to 2020 (N = 310, 43.1%). The mean age was 73.3 ± 16.5 years old, with males significantly younger than females (71.5 ± 16.9 vs. 75.9 ± 15.6, p < 0.001). Sudden death accounted for 11.5% of all deaths. The cause was unknown for 31.2% of cases. Among those with known causes of death, respiratory disorders were most common in patients with psychotic disorders (41.9%) and mood disorders (29.8%). Suicide accounted for 17.0% of deaths in patients with mood disorders. CONCLUSION Patients who died during psychiatric hospitalization were overall older (>70 years), and more than one in ten died due to sudden death. While respiratory disorders accounted for the largest proportion of known causes, the causes were unknown in nearly one-third. Death due to suicide, a preventable cause, remained common among patients with mood disorders. Evidence-based interventions should be implemented.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Intravenous dantrolene is often prescribed for hypermetabolic syndromes other than the approved indication of malignant hyperthermia (MH). To clarify the extent of and indications for dantrolene use in conditions other than MH, we sought to document current practices in the frequency, diagnoses, clinical characteristics and outcomes associated with dantrolene treatment in critical care settings. METHODS Inpatients receiving intravenous dantrolene from October 1, 2004 to September 30, 2014 were identified retrospectively in the U.S. Veterans Health Administration national database. Extracted data included; diagnoses of hypermetabolic syndromes; triggering drugs; dantrolene dosages; demographics; vital signs; laboratory values; in-hospital mortality; complications; and lengths of stay. Frequency and mortality of patients who did not receive dantrolene were obtained in selected diagnoses for exploratory comparisons. RESULTS Dantrolene was administered to 304 inpatients. The most frequent diagnoses associated with dantrolene treatment were neuroleptic malignant syndrome (NMS; N = 108, 35.53%) and sepsis (N = 47, 15.46%), with MH accounting for only 13 (4.28%) cases. Over half the patients had psychiatric comorbidities and received psychotropic drugs before dantrolene treatment. Common clinical findings in patients receiving dantrolene included elevated temperature (mean ± SD; 38.7 ± 1.3 °C), pulse (116.33 ± 22.80/bpm), respirations (27.75 ± 9.58/min), creatine kinase levels (2,859.37 ± 6,646.88 IU/L) and low pO2 (74.93 ± 40.16 mmHg). Respiratory, renal or cardiac failure were common complications. Mortality rates in-hospital were 24.01% overall, 7.69% in MH, 20.37% in NMS and 42.55% in sepsis, compared with mortality rates in larger and possibly less severe groups of unmatched patients with MH (5.26%), NMS (6.66%), or sepsis (41.91%) who did not receive dantrolene. CONCLUSIONS In over 95% of cases, dantrolene administration was associated with diagnoses other than MH in critically-ill patients with hypermetabolic symptoms and medical and psychiatric comorbidities. Exploratory survey data suggested that the efficacy and safety of dantrolene in preventing mortality in hypermetabolic syndromes other than MH remain uncertain. However, randomized and controlled studies using standardized criteria between groups matched for severity are essential to guide practice in using dantrolene.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Retrospective studies using spontaneous reporting system databases have provided a great understanding of adverse drug reactions (ADRs) in the real world, complementing the data obtained from randomized controlled trials. However, there have been few reports on large-scale epidemiological studies on the adverse effects of antipsychotics in Asia. AIM This study aimed to investigate the characteristics of antipsychotic ADRs using a nationwide pharmacovigilance database. METHODS Data were collected from the Korea Adverse Event Reporting System database between 2010 and 2019. The study subjects were selected using the International Classification of Disease codes for diseases related to psychosis and Electronic Data Interchange codes for amisulpride, aripiprazole, clozapine, haloperidol, olanzapine, paliperidone, quetiapine, risperidone, and ziprasidone. The causality assessment of "possible," "probable," or "certain" by the World Health Organization-Uppsala Monitoring Center System causality category was selected. All data were descriptively analyzed. RESULTS In total, 5067 adverse events associated with antipsychotic drugs were reported. The antipsychotics that commonly resulted in ADRs were quetiapine (47.7%), olanzapine (11.3%), and clozapine (10.7%). Serious ADRs were most commonly observed with clozapine. Gastrointestinal and central nervous system problems occurred within a month when ADRs were classified according to the time of onset. In contrast, metabolic and bone marrow-related symptoms occurred after long-term use. Sedation and nausea were the most common ADRs in children and adolescents, whereas constipation and dizziness were common in adults and the elderly. CONCLUSIONS This study extends our knowledge of antipsychotic ADRs in the Asian population.

Abstract
Second generation antipsychotic drugs including aripiprazole, olanzapine and risperidone are prescribed increasingly (mostly off-label) to treat various mental disorders in children and adolescents. Early treatment with antipsychotics during this period may have long-lasting behavioural impacts, but to date there have been only limited investigations. Maternal infection could be implicated in the aetiology of various mental disorders including schizophrenia. Exposure of pregnant rodents to polyriboinosinic-polyribocytidylic acid (Poly I:C) causes schizophrenia-like behavioural abnormalities and neurodevelopmental conditions such as autism spectrum disorders in offspring. This study, using a Poly I:C rat model, investigated the long-lasting effects of early aripiprazole, olanzapine and risperidone treatment in the childhood/adolescent period (postnatal day 22-50) on adult behaviours of male rats. The study showed that early treatment with three antipsychotics had different effects on long-term behavioural changes in adults. Prenatal Poly I:C exposure (5 mg/kg) at gestation day 15 caused deficits in pre-pulse inhibition and social interaction, as well as cognitive impairments, that could be partially improved by early antipsychotic treatment in the juvenile period. Early antipsychotic treatment during the childhood-adolescent period resulted in similar long-lasting effects on pre-pulse inhibition, anxiety- and depressive-related behaviours in both Poly I:C and healthy (control) male rats. Overall, these results suggest that both prenatal Poly I:C exposure and early antipsychotic treatment in the childhood/adolescent period had long-lasting effects on adult behaviours of male rats, while early antipsychotic treatment could partly prevent the onset of behavioural abnormalities resulting from prenatal insult.

Abstract
The association between dopamine D3 receptor (DRD3) Ser9Gly polymorphism and treatment response to antipsychotic drugs (APDs) in schizophrenia (SCZ) has been widely reported with inconsistent results, thus we performed an updated meta-analysis to derive a more precise estimation of the relationship. PubMed, Cochrane Library, Medline, Embase, CNKI, Weipu and Wanfang databases were searched for eligible studies published until March 2022. Odds ratios (ORs) with 95 % confidence intervals (CIs) were used to assess the strength of the associations in four genetic models. A total of 13 studies with 1769 patients were included in this meta-analysis. Our findings suggested that Ser9Gly polymorphism was significantly associated with treatment response to APDs in SCZ in allele model (Ser vs Gly, OR = 0.72, 95 % CI = 0.58-0.89, P = 0.002), recessive model (Ser/Ser vs Ser/Gly + Gly/Gly, OR = 0.55, 95 % CI = 0.36-0.86, P = 0.008) and co-dominant model (Ser/Ser vs Gly/Gly, OR = 0.57, 95 % CI = 0.33-0.99, P = 0.045) in Caucasians, but not in Asians. meta-regression revealed that the associations were not confounded by mean age, male ratio and treatment duration (P > 0.05). In summary, our results indicated the DRD3 Ser9Gly may influence the efficacy of APDs in specific genetic models, of which Ser allele and Ser/Ser genotype contributed to poor treatment response in Caucasians.

Abstract
Clozapine-related drug reaction with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms (DRESS) syndrome is a rare adverse reaction. We aimed to screen a large pharmacovigilance database to identify clozapine-related DRESS cases, even if otherwise reported and provide a clinical overview. We screened spontaneous reports of clozapine-related DRESS syndrome in EudraVigilance database applying the European Registry on Severe Cutaneous Adverse Drug Reactions (RegiSCAR) criteria and scores to identify probable/definite DRESS syndrome cases. Clinical and demographic characteristics of included cases were provided and associations between RegiSCAR scores, and time to develop/recover DRESS were assessed. In a total of 262,146 adverse drug reactions reports for 75,190 clozapine-treated patients, 596 cases fulfilled RegiSCAR criteria; ultimately, 51 cases were rated as probable/definite DRESS according to RegiSCAR scores, of which 4 were previously published as case reports. The mean age of patients was 41.06 years (43.1% females), with 13 patients (25.5%) receiving reported co-medication with other DRESS culprit drugs. Median time between clozapine initiation and DRESS symptoms was 25 days. Clozapine dose was associated with days to develop symptoms (Spearman's ρ 0.40, p = 0.03). Organ involvement was reported in all cases followed by fever (n = 49; 96.1%) and eosinophilia (n = 47; 92.2%). Treatment involved clozapine discontinuation for 37 patients (72.5%), while 3.9% (n = 2) of cases ended fatally. Clozapine rechallenge was undertaken in 25 patients (49.0%). The screening of the EudraVigilance database revealed 47 novel clozapine-related DRESS cases, and only one was originally reported as DRESS. Clozapine-related DRESS may occur with clozapine monotherapy not only during dose titration, but also during maintenance treatment.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Concurrent disorder or dual diagnosis refers to a combination of substance use disorders and mental disorders that occur in the same patient simultaneously. These conditions pose significant clinical and healthcare impacts and are often underdiagnosed, undertreated, and complex to manage. OBJECTIVE We assessed the quality of current pharmacological recommendations for the management of dual diagnosis, particularly by evaluating the use of second-generation antipsychotics (SGA). METHOD A literature search was performed using the PubMed and Scopus databases for publications up to September 21, 2021, without any time restrictions. The following search strings were used: (aripiprazole OR brexpiprazole OR cariprazine OR paliperidone OR risperidone OR quetiapine OR clozapine OR olanzapine) AND (psychosis OR schizophrenia OR schizoaffective) AND ("substance use disorder" OR cocaine OR alcohol OR cannabis OR heroin OR "double diagnosis" OR "dual diagnosis")) NOT (animal OR rat OR mouse) NOT (review or meta-analysis). RESULTS The search produced a final set of 41 articles. Most patients were males and were affected by schizophrenia, with cannabis the most abused substance, followed by alcohol. Aripiprazole was the most used drug, either orally or by long-acting formulations, followed by risperidone with oral and long-acting formulations, clozapine, olanzapine, and quetiapine. CONCLUSION The findings highlight the use of SGA for the treatment of psychotic symptoms in comorbidity with substance use. Future studies on people with dual diagnosis and focused on long-term evaluations are warranted and need to investigate the efficacy of newly introduced molecules, such as partial D2 agonists and long-acting injectable antipsychotics.

Abstract
Forms of organic contaminants is an important driver of bioavailable fraction and desorption kinetics of pollutants binding to sediments. To determine fluxes and resupply of nine environmentally-relevant antipsychotic drugs, which are emerging pollutants that can have adverse effects on aquatic organisms, interface passive samplers of diffusive gradients in thin films (DGT) were deployed for 21 days, in situ at the sediment-water interface in submerged sandy riverbank sediments. At each deployment time, samples of sediment were collected and subjected to consecutive extraction of pore water, as well as rapidly-desorbing (labile), stable-desorbing, and bound residue fractions. Concentrations of antipsychotic drugs decreased with sediment depth with the greatest concentrations observed in the top 2 cm. Positive fluxes of antipsychotic drugs were observed from sediment to surface water. The dynamic fraction transfer model indicated that the labile fraction can be resupplied with a lag time (> 21 d). When results were further interpreted using the DGT-induced fluxes in soils and sediments (DIFS) model, partial resupply of antipsychotic drugs from sediment particles to porewater was demonstrated. Desorption occurred within the entirety of the observed 15 cm depth of sediment. Fastest rates of resupply were found for carbamazepine and lamotrigine. Size of the labile pool estimated by the DIFS model did not fully explain the observed resupply, while a first-order three-compartment kinetic model for the fast-desorbing fraction can be used to supplement DIFS predictions with estimations of labile pool size.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To investigate the relationship between patient age and the selection and dosage of antipsychotic drugs (APDs) for treatment of schizophrenia. We describe age effects for multiple individual APDs, thus allowing comparisons between drugs. METHODS Prescription data of 32,062 inpatients with schizophrenia from 2000 to 2017 were obtained from the Drug Safety Program in Psychiatry (AMSP) database. APD selection and dosage were related to patient age with sex as an influencing variable. Moreover, a systematic search of current guideline recommendations on APD treatment in patients with schizophrenia aged ≥65 years was performed. RESULTS Eighty percentof elderly patients (≥65 years) received a second-generation APD, most commonly risperidone. The dosage of APDs increased with age until about age 40 years, then decreased slowly at first and more steeply beyond age 55 years. The influence of age as well as sex on dosage partly differed between the individual drugs. Only one of eight schizophrenia guidelines systematically addressed specific aspects of pharmacotherapy in older adults. CONCLUSIONS In clinical routine, age has a significant impact on selection and dosing of APDs. Information on optimising pharmacotherapy in older adults with schizophrenia from clinical trials is needed. Guidelines should be improved regarding APD therapy specifically for older adults.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Although existing guidelines have discouraged use of antipsychotics for general clinical high-risk (CHR) individuals, it is unclear if antipsychotics can prevent psychosis in higher-risk population. We aimed to study the comparative real-world effectiveness of antipsychotic treatments for preventing psychosis in higher-risk CHR individuals. METHODS A total of 300 CHR individuals were identified using the structured interview for prodromal syndromes (SIPS) and followed the participants for 3 years. In total, 228(76.0%) individuals completed baseline assessments using the NAPLS-2 risk calculator (NAPLS-2-RC), and 210(92.1%) completed the follow-up. The sample was further stratified according to risk level. "Higher-risk" was defined based on the NAPLS-2-RC risk score (≥ 20%) and SIPS positive symptom total scores (≥ 10). The main outcome was conversion to psychosis and poor functional outcomes, defined as a global assessment of function (GAF) score lower than 60 at follow-up. RESULTS In higher-risk CHR individuals, we found no significant difference in the rate of conversion to psychosis or poor functional outcomes between the antipsychotic and no-antipsychotic groups. Low-risk individuals treated with antipsychotic drugs were more likely exhibit poor functional outcomes compared with the no-antipsychotics group(NAPLS-2-RC estimated risk: χ2 = 8.330, p = 0.004; Positive symptom severity: χ2 = 12.997, p < 0.001). No significant effective factors were identified for prevention of the conversion to psychosis; conversely, CHR individuals who were treated with high dose antipsychotics (olanzapine, aripiprazole) showed a significantly increased risk of poor functional outcomes. CONCLUSIONS In CHR individuals, antipsychotic treatment should be provided with caution because of the risk of poor functional outcomes. Further, antipsychotic treatment does not appear to prevent onset of psychosis in real-world settings.

Abstract
The International Classification of Diseases (10th Version) categorizes major depressive disorder (MDD) according to severity. Guidelines provide recommendations for the treatment of MDD according to severity. Aim of this study was to assess real-life utilization of psychotropic drugs based on severity of MDD in psychiatric inpatients. Drug utilization data from the program “Drug Safety in Psychiatry” (German: Arzneimittelsicherheit in der Psychiatrie, AMSP) were analyzed according to the severity of MDD. From 2001 to 2017, 43,868 psychiatric inpatients with MDD were treated in participating hospitals. Most patients were treated with ≥ 1 antidepressant drug (ADD; 85.8% of patients with moderate MDD, 89.8% of patients with severe MDD, and 87.9% of patients with psychotic MDD). More severely depressed patients were more often treated with selective serotonin–norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors and mirtazapine and less often with selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (p < 0.001 each). Use of antipsychotic drugs (APDs), especially second-generation APDs, increased significantly with severity (37.0%, 47.9%, 84.1%; p < 0.001 each). APD + ADD was the most used combination (32.8%, 43.6%, 74.4%), followed by two ADDs (26.3%, 29.3%, 24.9%). Use of lithium was minimal (3.3%, 6.1% ,7.1%). The number of psychotropic drugs increased with severity of MDD—patients with psychotic MDD had the highest utilization of psychotropic drugs (93.4%, 96.5%, 98.7%; p < 0.001). ADD monotherapy was observed to a lesser extent, even in patients with non-severe MDD (23.2%, 17.1%, 4.4%). Findings reveal substantial discrepancies between guideline recommendations and real-life drug utilization, indicating that guidelines may insufficiently consider clinical needs within the psychiatric inpatient setting.

Abstract
Forced normalization (FN) is a unique phenomenon that is often seen in the treatment of epilepsy. FN is characterized by abnormal mental behavior and disordered emotions in epilepsy patients despite a significantly improved electroencephalogram and successful seizure control; the occurrence of FN seriously affects patients’ quality of life. The causes of FN include antiseizure medications (ASMs), epilepsy surgery and vagus nerve stimulation, with ASMs being the most common cause. However, with the timely reduction or discontinuation of ASMs and the use of antipsychotic drugs, the overall prognosis is good. Here, we perform an extensive review of the literature pertaining to FN, including its epidemiology, possible mechanisms, clinical features, treatment and prognosis.

Abstract
Mental illnesses affect more than 150 million people in Europe and lead to an increasing consumption of neuroactive drugs during the last twenty years. The antipsychotic compound, clozapine, is one of the most used psychotropic drugs worldwide, with potentially negative consequences for the aquatic environment. Hence, the objectives of the study presented here were the quantification of clozapine induced changes in swimming behavior of exposed Danio rerio embryos and the elucidation of the molecular effects on the serotonergic and dopaminergic systems. Yolk-sac larvae were exposed to different concentrations (0.2 mg/L, 0.4 mg/L, 0.8 mg/L, 1.6 mg/L, 3.2 mg/L and 6.4 mg/L) of clozapine for 116 h post-fertilization, and changes in the swimming behavior of the larvae were assessed. Further, quantitative real-time PCR was performed to analyze the expression of selected genes. The qualitative evaluation of changes in the swimming behavior of D. rerio larvae revealed a significant decrease of the average swimming distance and velocity in the light-dark transition test, with more than a 36% reduction at the highest exposure concentration of 6.4 mg/L. Furthermore, the total larval body length was reduced at the highest concentration. An in-depth analysis based on expression of selected target genes of the serotonin (slc6a4a) and dopamine (drd2a) system showed an upregulation at a concentration of 1.6 mg/L and above. In addition, a lower increase in expression was detected for biomarkers of general stress (adra1a and cyp1a2). Our data show that exposure to clozapine during development inhibits swimming activity of zebrafish larvae, which could, in part, be due to disruption of the serotonin- and dopamine system.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Some patients with intellectual disabilities (ID) are prescribed antipsychotic drugs for symptomatic treatment of behavioural disorders. Nevertheless, it can still prove difficult to perform dental treatments safely for some patients with ID. In such cases, treatment under intravenous sedation (IVS) is one option. Sedative, hypnotic and α-blocking effects of antipsychotic drugs may cause adverse events, such as severe hypotension, among patients who take antipsychotic drugs regularly. This study aimed to investigate the effects of oral antipsychotic medication on cardiovascular function during IVS. Accordingly, we compared mean blood pressure (MBP) and heart rate (HR) between patients who regularly take antipsychotic drugs and patients who do not. METHODS Thirty-seven patients with ID were enrolled in this study. All participants were outpatients of Special Care Dentistry of general hospital and received dental treatment under IVS performed with a combination of midazolam and propofol. Eighteen patients regularly took antipsychotics (medication group), and 19 patients were not currently taking antipsychotics (non-medication group). MBP, HR, dose, and effect-site concentration of intravenous sedative medications were measured at three points: 'before IVS', 'at optimal sedation', and 'during dental treatment'. RESULTS The magnitude of reduction of MBP was significantly smaller in the medication group than in the non-medication group (P < 0.023). However, there were no differences in MBP, HR, dose, and effect-site concentration of midazolam and propofol between groups at any point. CONCLUSION These results suggest that antipsychotic medication may not have clinically significant adverse effects on cardiovascular fluctuations during dental treatment under IVS for persons with ID.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Antipsychotic drugs remain the mainstay of schizophrenia treatment; however, their effectiveness has been questioned, and it is not possible to predict the response to a specific antipsychotic drug in an individual patient. Thus, it is important to compare the effectiveness of the various antipsychotics and search for possible response predictors.
AIM To investigate the effectiveness of antipsychotic drugs, we examined response trajectories and predictors for belonging to different trajectory groups.
METHODS The Bergen-Stavanger-Innsbruck-Trondheim (BeSt InTro) trial compared the effectiveness of three atypical antipsychotics-amisulpride, aripiprazole, and olanzapine-in a prospective, semirandomized, rater-blind, head-to-head design. Adult participants with a schizophrenia spectrum disorder diagnosis, according to international classification of diseases, Tenth Revision (ICD-10) F20–29, were included. Participants were followed for a period of 12 mo, with assessments at baseline; after one, three and six weeks; and after three, six, nine and 12 mo. A latent class mixed model was fitted to our data. The three-trajectory model based on the Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale (PANSS) total score reduction was found to have adequate fit, and the study drugs, as well as various demographic and clinical parameters, were tested as predictors for belonging to the different trajectory groups.
RESULTS Overall, 144 participants were included, and 41% completed the 12-mo study period. The largest trajectory group, consisting of 74% of participants, showed a PANSS total score reduction of 59% from baseline to 12 mo (Good response group). A trajectory group comprising 13% of participants had their PANSS total score reduced by 82.5% at 12 mo (Strong response group), while the last response trajectory group comprising 13% of the participants had a PANSS total score reduction of 13.6% (Slight response group). The largest part of the total reduction for the Good and Strong response groups occurred at six weeks of treatment, amounting to 45% and 48% reductions from baseline, respectively. The use of amisulpride predicted belonging to the Strong response group, while unemployment, depression, and negative psychotic symptoms at baseline increased the chance of belonging to the Slight response group, indicating a poor response to antipsychotic drug treatment.
CONCLUSION Most of the participants (87%) had a good outcome after one year. Amisulpride users, more often than aripiprazole and olanzapine users, belonged to the response trajectory group with a strong response.

Abstract
BACKGROUND A potential role of inflammatory pathways in the pathology of schizophrenia has been suggested for at least a subgroup of patients. Elevated levels of the inflammatory marker C-reactive protein (CRP) have been observed, with associations to pathogenesis and symptoms. The current evidence regarding effects of antipsychotics on CRP levels is ambiguous. OBJECTIVES To examine and compare the influence on CRP levels of three pharmacologically diverse new generation antipsychotics during a one-year follow-up in schizophrenia spectrum disorder. METHODS In a multicenter, pragmatic and rater-blinded randomized trial, the effects of amisulpride, aripiprazole and olanzapine were compared in 128 patients with schizophrenia spectrum disorder. All had positive symptoms of psychosis at study entry. Clinical and laboratory assessments including the measurement of CRP levels were conducted at baseline, and 1, 3, 6, 12, 26, 39, and 52 weeks thereafter. RESULTS For all antipsychotic drugs analysed together, there was an increase in CRP levels during the one-year follow-up. Aripiprazole, as opposed to amisulpride and olanzapine, was associated with a reduced CRP level after one week, after which the CRP level caught up with the other drugs. Compared to those previously exposed to antipsychotic drugs, antipsychotic-naïve patients had lower CRP levels at all follow-up time points, but with the same temporal patterns of change. CONCLUSION Treatment with amisulpride, aripiprazole and olanzapine showed different effects on CRP levels in patients with schizophrenia spectrum disorders, modified by previous antipsychotics exposure status. This finding suggests that antipsychotic drugs may vary with respect to their influence on pro-inflammatory pathways. TRIAL REGISTRATION ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT01446328; URL: http://www.

Abstract
Individuals suffering from mental illnesses, unfortunately, have a shorter lifespan. The increase in mortality rates is primarily due to physical illness, unhealthy lifestyle, and associated comorbidities. Antipsychotic medications, previously known as tranquilizers, antipsychotics, or neuroleptics, can alleviate or attenuate symptoms related to psychosis, delusion, and/or hallucinations and are used in the treatment of psychosis, schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, depression, or Alzheimer's disease. Within hours to days, these medications cause calm and reduce confusion in individuals with psychosis however may take longer for full effect. Importantly, these drugs are not curing, but only treat the disease symptoms. The treatment is adjusted to reduce any psychotic symptoms while keeping the adverse effects to a minimum level. Antipsychotics may lead to increased risk of diseases, including but not limited to, diabetes, obesity, metabolic disorders, cardiovascular, renal, or respiratory disorders. Improved dosages, polypharmacy, and age-specific treatment play an important role in limiting the comorbidities as well as the side effects. Further research and clinical attention are required to understand the functioning of these medications. The review focuses on the use of antipsychotic medications in different diseases and their effect on mental health.

Abstract
Antipsychotics increase weight, BMI and waist size, particularly in pediatric patients. Switching antipsychotics is common practice, thus defining the risk for each antipsychotic in real-life settings can be important for clinical guidance. We conducted a meta-analysis on antipsychotic-related changes in body measures in pediatric observational studies. Of 934 publications found on PubMed, we analyzed 38, including nine treatment arms: no treatment, mixed antipsychotic treatment, first-generation antipsychotics, aripiprazole, clozapine, olanzapine, quetiapine, risperidone and ziprasidone. Changes in weight, BMI, BMI-Z and waist size were meta-analyzed according to the duration of clinical observations: 6, 12, > 12 months. Meta-regressions probed influencing factors. Weight in Kg was increased at 6, 12, > 12 months by olanzapine [+ 10.91, + 10.7, data not available (n/a)], mixed antipsychotic treatment (n/a, + 9.42, + 12.59), quetiapine (+ 5.84, n/a, n/a) and risperidone (+ 4.47, + 6.01, + 9.51) and without treatment (n/a, + 2.3, n/a). BMI was increased at 6, 12, > 12 months by olanzapine (+ 3.47, + 3.42, n/a), clozapine (n/a, + 3, n/a) mixed antipsychotic treatment (+ 3.37, + 2.95, + 3.32), risperidone (+ 2, + 2.13, + 2.16), quetiapine (+ 1.5, + 1.82, n/a), aripiprazole (n/a, + 1.7, + 2.1) and without treatment (n/a, + 0.75, n/a). BMI-Z was increased at 6, 12, > 12 months by olanzapine (+ 0.94, + 0.98, + 0.89), clozapine (n/a, + 0.8, n/a), risperidone (+ 0.62, + 0.61, + 0.48), quetiapine (+ 0.57, + 0.54, n/a), mixed antipsychotic treatment (+ 0.51, + 0.94, + 0.44), without treatment (n/a, + 0.37, n/a) and aripiprazole (no gain, + 0.31, n/a). Waist size in cm was increased at 6, 12 months by risperidone (+ 8.8, + 11.5), mixed antipsychotics treatment (+ 9.1, + 10.2) and quetiapine (+ 6.9, + 9.1). Overall, olanzapine and clozapine displayed maximum risk, followed by risperidone, quetiapine and aripiprazole (more risky at longer terms); ziprasidone was associated with no gains. No time-based trends emerged, suggesting a drug-specific risk magnitude. Meta-regressions evidenced variable roles for persistence in therapy and follow-up length, increased risk for drug-naïve patients, and a ceiling effect determined by higher baseline BMI/BMI-Z values.

Abstract
Antipsychotic drugs (APDs) are prescribed for the treatment of psychiatric illness. However, these drugs can also contribute to several developmental and behavioral disorders. Contemporary studies to evaluate the toxic effects of numerous atypical antipsychotics are reported to cause behavioral alteration at variable doses in mammals and nematodes. Risperidone, the second most prescribed drug in India, requires more exploration of its adverse effects on humans. Here, we explore effects on feeding behavior and locomotion patterns due to risperidone exposure in C. elegans model. The study targets to work out the toxic effects of risperidone exposure on feeding and locomotion behavior in addition to the expected pharmacological effects. N2 wild type strain was exposed in liquid culture assay for 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, and 12 hours with fixed 50 µM concentration. Feeding behavior was depleted due to inhibition in pharyngeal pumping varying from 11.05% - 45.67% in a time-dependent manner. Results of locomotion assay also show time-varying increase in reversals (4.9%-34.03%) and omega bends (26.23%-62.17%) with reduction in turn counts (29.07%- 42.2%) and peristaltic speed (31.38%-42.22%) amongst exposed groups as to control. The present work shows behavioral alterations due to risperidone exposure (50 µM) in C. elegans is in a time-dependent manner. The study concludes that risperidone exposure in C. elegans produces toxic effects with time, possibly caused by antagonizing other receptors apart from serotonin (5-H2T) and dopamine (D2) adding to its expected pharmacological effects.

Abstract
BACKGROUND A randomized, controlled, phase 3b study (ALPINE) evaluated efficacy and safety of a 2-month formulation of aripiprazole lauroxil (AL) using a 1-day initiation regimen in patients hospitalized for an acute exacerbation of schizophrenia. Paliperidone palmitate (PP) was used as an active control. Exploratory endpoint assessments included severity of illness, positive and negative symptoms, quality of life, caregiver burden, and satisfaction with medication. METHODS Adults were randomly assigned to AL 1064 mg q8wk or PP 156 mg q4wk as inpatients, discharged after 2 weeks, and followed through week 25. Exploratory efficacy measures included the 3 original PANSS subscales, Clinical Global Impression-Severity (CGI-S) subscale, and caregiver Burden Assessment Scale. Exploratory patient-reported outcomes (PROs) included the Quality of Life Enjoyment and Satisfaction Questionnaire Short Form (Q-LES-Q-SF) and the Medication Satisfaction Questionnaire. Within-group changes from baseline through week 25 were analyzed for AL and PP separately. PROs were summarized based on observed data. RESULTS Of 200 patients randomized (AL, n = 99; PP, n = 101), 99 completed the study (AL, n = 56; PP, n = 43). For AL, PANSS subscale and CGI-S scores improved from baseline through week 25 (mean [SE] change from baseline at week 25: Positive, -7.5 [0.70]; Negative, -3.9 [0.46]; General, -11.8 [0.83]; CGI-S, -1.3 [0.12]). Caregiver burden also improved (mean [SD] changes from baseline at week 9: -8.4 [10.15]; week 25: -8.9 [12.36]). Most AL patients were somewhat/very satisfied with treatment at each timepoint (70.8%-74.7%); mean Q-LES-Q-SF total scores were stable in the outpatient period. For PP, results were similar: PANSS Positive, -7.3 (0.67); Negative, -3.6 (0.69); General, -10.9 (1.22); CGI-S, -1.4 (0.16); caregiver burden, week 9: -8.8 (11.89) and week 25: -9.2 (14.55); satisfaction with treatment, 64.7%-69.3%; and stable Q-LES-Q-SF scores. CONCLUSIONS ALPINE patients initiating the 2-month AL formulation using the 1-day initiation regimen as inpatients and continuing outpatient care experienced schizophrenia symptom improvement, sustained patient satisfaction with medication, stable quality of life, and reduced caregiver burden. A similar benefit pattern was observed for PP. These results support the feasibility of starting either long-acting injectable in the hospital and transitioning to outpatient treatment.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In society at large, it is debated whether use of antipsychotic drugs is associated with increased or decreased mortality among patients with schizophrenia. Large register studies have demonstrated an increased mortality risk associated with non-use of antipsychotic drugs, but prospective studies are missing. AIMS To investigate the association between mortality and non-use of antipsychotics in patients with schizophrenia. METHOD An open cohort study included and followed all patients with a discharge-diagnosis of schizophrenia consecutively admitted to a psychiatric acute unit at Haukeland University Hospital, Bergen, Norway during a 10 year period (n = 696). Cox multiple regression analyses were conducted with use of antipsychotic drugs as a time dependent variable, and periods of use and non-use were compared within individual patients. Adjustments were made for gender, age at index admission, number of acute psychiatric hospital admissions, excessive use of alcohol and illicit substances and use of benzodiazepines and antidepressants. RESULTS A total of 68 (9.8%) deaths were registered during follow-up. Of these, 40 (59%) had natural causes, whereas 26 (38%) had unnatural causes. Non-use of antipsychotics was associated with 2.15 (p = .01, CI: 1.24-3.72) times higher mortality risk compared to use of antipsychotics. The difference in mortality risk between use and non-use of antipsychotic drugs was age dependent, with the largest risk difference in young patients. CONCLUSIONS Non-use of antipsychotic drugs was associated with twofold increased mortality risk in patients with schizophrenia.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Antipsychotic drugs and especially the newer compounds are known to cause metabolic side effects. However, a comprehensive comparison of the different substances regarding their propensity to cause metabolic side effects in medium- to long-term treatment of schizophrenia is lacking. METHODS We will conduct a systematic review and network meta-analysis (NMA). We will include randomized controlled trials (RCTs) in which participants received either placebo or an antipsychotic (i.e. placebo-controlled trials and head-to-head comparisons of drugs). We will include studies in individuals with schizophrenia or related disorders (such as schizophreniform or schizoaffective disorders) at any stage of the disease (acute episode; maintenance phase). We will include studies with a duration of more than 3 months (medium- to long-term treatment). The primary outcome will be the change in body weight. Secondary outcomes will be the further metabolic parameters: fastening glucose, total cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol, high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol and triglycerides. We will search for eligible studies (independent of the publication status) in Cochrane Schizophrenia Group's Study-Based Register of Trials, which is compiled by regular searches in trial registries and multiple electronic databases from their inception onwards including MEDLINE, EMBASE and PsycINFO. Additionally, we will search previously published systematic reviews and websites of pharmaceutical companies for eligible studies. At least two reviewers will independently conduct the process of study selection and data extraction. We will use the Cochrane Risk of Bias 2 tool to evaluate the risk of bias in studies. We will conduct random-effects NMA within a Bayesian framework to synthesize all evidence for each outcome. We will conduct sensitivity and subgroup analyses to assess the robustness of the findings and to explore heterogeneity. The confidence in the results will be evaluated using the Confidence in Network Meta-Analysis (CINeMA) framework. DISCUSSION This systematic review and network meta-analysis will provide a synthesis of the existing evidence from RCTs how antipsychotic drugs differ in terms of metabolic side effects during medium- to long-term treatment. The findings have the potential to influence the choice of antipsychotic medication made by individuals with schizophrenia and their physicians.

Abstract
Hyponatremia (HN) is the most common electrolyte imbalance (defined as a serum sodium concentration Na(S) of < 130 mmol/l) and often induced by drugs including psychotropic drugs. AMSP (Arzneimittelsicherheit in der Psychiatrie) is a multicenter drug surveillance program that assesses severe or unusual adverse drug reactions (ADRs) occurring during treatment with psychotropic drugs. This study presents data from 462,661 psychiatric inpatients treated in participating hospitals between 1993 and 2016 and serves as an update of a previous contribution by Letmaier et al. (JAMA 15(6):739–748, 2012). A total of 210 cases of HN were observed affecting 0.05% of patients. 57.1% of cases presented symptomatically; 19.0% presented with severe symptoms (e.g., seizures, vomiting). HN occurred after a median of 7 days following the first dose or dose increase. Incidence of HN was highest among the two antiepileptic drugs oxcarbazepine (1.661% of patients treated) and carbamazepine (0.169%), followed by selective serotonin-norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors (SSNRIs, 0.088%) and selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (0.071%). Antipsychotic drugs, tricyclic antidepressants, and mirtazapine exhibited a significantly lower incidence of HN. The risk of HN was 16–42 times higher among patients concomitantly treated with other potentially HN-inducing drugs such as diuretic drugs, angiotensin-converting-enzyme inhibitors, angiotensin II receptor blockers, and proton pump inhibitors. Female SSNRI-users aged ≥ 65 years concomitantly using other HN-inducing drugs were the population subgroup with the highest risk of developing HN. The identification of high-risk drug combinations and vulnerable patient subgroups represents a significant step in the improvement of drug safety and facilitates the implementation of precautionary measures.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cognitive impairment is one of the core symptoms of schizophrenia patients. There are often various differences in the efficacy of different antipsychotics in the treatment of cognitive impairment by sex. The purpose of this study was to explore whether there are gender differences in the association between serum BDNF levels and cognitive performance in patients with schizophrenia taking different antipsychotics. METHODS We used Repeatable Battery for the Assessment of Neuropsychological Status (RBANS) to assess the cognitive function of three groups of schizophrenia patients (420 on clozapine, 183 on risperidone, 215 on typical antipsychotic drugs) and 467 healthy controls. Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale (PANSS) was used to assess schizophrenia symptoms of patients. Enzyme-Linked ImmunoSorbent Assay was used to measure serum brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) levels. RESULTS Among the patients taking clozapine and typical antipsychotic drugs, the RBANS total score, immediate memory, attention, and delayed memory subscores in females were higher than those in males (all p < 0.05). The RBANS total score and the delayed memory subscores in female patients taking risperidone were higher than those in male patients (all p < 0.05). Significant correlation between BDNF and cognition only existed in male patients taking clozapine, male patients taking risperidone, and male and female patients taking typical antipsychotic drugs (all p < 0.05). CONCLUSION Regardless of antipsychotic effect, the cognitive function of female patients is better compared to that of male patients. For male patients, the association between BDNF and cognitive performance exists in each medication group. For female patients, this significant association was only shown in the typical antipsychotic group, but not in the clozapine and risperidone groups.

Abstract
Although antipsychotics are routinely used in the treatment of schizophrenia for the last decades, their precise mechanism of action is still unclear. In this study, we investigated changes in the PC12 cells’ proteome under the influence of clozapine, risperidone, and haloperidol to identify protein pathways regulated by antipsychotics. Analysis of the protein profiles in two time points: after 12 and 24 h of incubation with drugs revealed significant alterations in 510 proteins. Further canonical pathway analysis revealed an inhibition of ciliary trophic factor signaling after treatment with haloperidol and showed a decrease in acute phase response signaling in the risperidone group. Interestingly, all tested drugs have caused changes in PC12 proteome which correspond to inhibition of cytokines: tumor necrosis factor (TNF) and transforming growth factor beta 1 (TGF-β1). We also found that the 12-h incubation with clozapine caused up-regulation of protein kinase A signaling and translation machinery. After 24 h of treatment with clozapine, the inhibition of the actin cytoskeleton signaling and Rho proteins signaling was revealed. The obtained results suggest that the mammalian target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1) and 2 (mTORC2) play a central role in the signal transduction of clozapine.

Abstract
This study examined the effects of chronic treatment of the antipsychotic drugs, haloperidol and olanzapine, on microglial activation in the brain. In addition, we explored the interaction of these antipsychotic drugs with normal and high-fat diet. In order to measure activated microglial expression, we used [3H] PK11195 in vitro autoradiography. Male Sprague Dawley rats were given a diet of either regular chow diet or a high-fat diet, and assigned either water, haloperidol drinking solution (1.5 mg/kg), or olanzapine drinking solution (10 mg/kg) for four weeks. Following treatment, rats were euthanized and brains extracted for [3H] PK11195 autoradiography. Rats on 4 weeks of a high-fat diet showed increased [3H] PK11195 binding compared to rats on a normal diet in the temporal association cortex (19 %), ectorhinal cortex (17 %), entorhinal cortex (18 %), and perirhinal cortex (18 %), irrespective of drug treatment. These are regions associated with memory, sensory, and visual processing. Rats treated with either haloperidol or olanzapine showed no differences in [3H] PK11195 binding compared to the control group. However, there were differences between the 2 different antipsychotic medications themselves. Haloperidol increased [3H] PK11195 binding in the amygdala (23 %), ectorhinal cortex (24 %), and perihinal cortex (29 %), compared to olanzapine. These results corroborate a known role of a high-fat diet and central inflammatory changes but suggest no role of these antipsychotic drugs in promoting neuroinflammation across 4 weeks compared to normal control rats.

Abstract
Schizophrenia is a severe mental disorder that affects more than 1% of the population worldwide. Dopamine system dysfunction and alterations in glutamatergic neurotransmission are strongly implicated in the aetiology of schizophrenia. To date, antipsychotic drugs are the only available treatment for the symptoms of schizophrenia. These medications, which act as D2-receptor antagonist, adequately address the positive symptoms of the disease, but they fail to improve the negative symptoms and cognitive impairment. In schizophrenia, cognitive impairment is a core feature of the disorder. Therefore, the treatment of cognitive impairment and the other symptoms related to schizophrenia remains a significant unmet medical need. Currently, phosphodiesterases (PDEs) are considered the best drug target for the treatment of schizophrenia since many PDE subfamilies are abundant in the brain regions that are relevant to cognition. Thus, this review aims to illustrate the mechanism of PDEs in treating the symptoms of schizophrenia and summarises the encouraging results of PDE inhibitors as anti-schizophrenic drugs in preclinical and clinical studies.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Different clinical studies have given inconsistent results on whether the use of antipsychotics increases the risk of thromboembolism. In this paper, we reviewed all relevant literature to provide suggestions for clinical diagnosis and treatment. METHODS PubMed, Web of Science, EMBASE, MEDLINE, Cochrane and Scopus databases were thoroughly searched up to June 2019. Two researchers independently searched the literature, extracted data. Data were analyzed by Stata 12.0 software. RESULTS A total of 22 studies involving 31514226 subjects were included. This meta-analysis showed that patients taking the first- or second-generation antipsychotics had a higher risk of venous thromboembolism and pulmonary embolism than those who did not, and low potency first-generation agents increased the risk of venous thromboembolism more than high potency antipsychotics, and olanzapine, clozapine, haloperidol, perphenazine and risperidone also significantly increased the risk of it. The risk of venous thrombosis in obese people was higher than that in overweight people, patients not less than 65 years old had an increased risk compared with younger patients. In addition, women taking antipsychotics had a higher risk of pulmonary embolism than men. CONCLUSION The use of antipsychotics will increase the risk of venous thromboembolism and pulmonary embolism, which will be affected by the type of antipsychotics and patient characteristics.

Abstract
Data on drug prescription for outpatients with major depressive disorder (MDD) suggest women are more likely to be treated with psychotropic drugs, while data on sex differences regarding pharmacological treatment of psychiatric inpatients are currently not available. Drug utilization data from the program "Drug Safety in Psychiatry" (German: Arzneimittelsicherheit in der Psychiatrie, AMSP) of 44,418 psychiatric inpatients with MDD were analyzed for sex differences between 2001 and 2017. Sex differences were analyzed using relative risks (RR) and 95% confidence intervals (95% CI). Time trends were analyzed by comparing the first (2001-2003) with the last time period (2015-2017). In general, men and women were equally likely to use psychotropic drugs. Monotherapy was more common in men. Women were more likely to utilize ≥ 4 psychotropic drugs. Antidepressant drugs (ADDs) were the most prescribed drug class. Men had a higher utilization of noradrenergic and specific serotonergic antidepressants (RR 1.15; 95% CI 1.12-1.19), especially mirtazapine (RR 1.16; 95% CI 1.12-1.19), but also of other ADDs such as bupropion (RR 1.50; 95% CI 1.35-1.68). Males had a slightly higher utilization of second-generation antipsychotic drugs (RR 1.06; 95% CI 1.03-1.09) and were less often treated with low-potency first-generation antipsychotic drugs (RR 0.86; 95% CI 0.83-0.90). Tranquilizing (e.g., benzodiazepines; RR 0.89; 95% CI 0.86-0.92) and hypnotic drugs (e.g., Z-drugs; RR 0.85; 95% CI 0.81-0.89) were less utilized in the treatment of male patients. Not all sex differences were stable over time. More sex differences were detectable in 2015-2017 than in 2001-2003. Findings suggest that certain psychotropic drugs are preferred in the treatment of men vs. women, however, sex differences found in this study are not as large as in ambulatory settings. To make evidence-based sex-specific recommendations in the treatment of MDD, differences in drug response and tolerability need to be further researched.
