Abstract
A growing body of research has demonstrated the potential role for physical activity as an intervention across mental and other medical disorders. However, the association between physical activity and suicidal ideation, attempts, and deaths has not been systematically appraised in clinical samples. We conducted a PRISMA 2020-compliant systematic review searching MEDLINE, EMBASE, and PsycINFO for observational studies investigating the influence of physical activity on suicidal behavior up to December 6, 2023. Of 116 eligible full-text studies, seven (n = 141691) were included. Depression was the most frequently studied mental condition (43%, k = 3), followed by chronic pain as the most common other medical condition (29%, k = 2). Two case-control studies examined suicide attempts and found an association between physical activity and a reduced frequency of such attempts. However, in studies examining suicidal ideation (k = 3) or suicide deaths (k = 2), no consistent associations with physical activity were observed. Overall, our systematic review found that physical activity may be linked to a lower frequency of suicide attempts in non-prospective studies involving individuals with mental disorders.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Major depressive disorder (MDD) is characterized by sadness and anhedonia, but also physical symptoms such as changes in appetite and weight. Gut microbiota has been hypothesized to be involved in MDD through gut-brain axis signaling. Moreover, antidepressants display antibacterial properties in the gastrointestinal tract. The aim of this study was to compare the gut microbiota and systemic inflammatory profile of young patients with MDD before and after initiation of antidepressant treatment and/or psychotherapy in comparison with a non-depressed control group (nonMDD). METHODS Fecal and blood samples were collected at baseline and at follow-up after four and twelve weeks, respectively. Patients started treatment immediately after collection of the baseline samples. The gut microbiota was characterized by 16 S rRNA gene sequencing targeting the hypervariable V4 region. Plasma levels of 49 unique immune markers were assessed using Mesoscale. RESULTS In total, 27 MDD patients and 32 nonMDD controls were included in the study. The gut microbiota in the baseline samples of MDD versus nonMDD participants did not differ regarding α- or β-diversity. However, there was a higher relative abundance of the genera Ruminococcus gnavus group, and a lower relative abundance of the genera Desulfovibrio, Tyzzerella, Megamonas, Olsenella, Gordonibacter, Allisonella and Rothia in the MDD group compared to the nonMDD group. In the MDD group, there was an increase in the genera Rothia, Desulfovibrio, Gordinobacteer and Lactobacillus, while genera belonging to the Firmicutes phylum were found depleted at twelve weeks follow-up compared to baseline. In the MDD group, IL-7, IL-8 and IL-17b levels were elevated compared to the nonMDD group at baseline. Furthermore, MDI score in the MDD group was found to correlate with Bray-Curtis dissimilarity at baseline, and several inflammatory markers at both baseline and after initiation of antidepressant treatment. CONCLUSION Several bacterial taxa differed between the MDD group and the nonMDD group at baseline and changed in relative abundance during antidepressant treatment and/or psychotherapy. The MDD group was furthermore found to have a pro-inflammatory profile compared to the nonMDD group at baseline. Further studies are required to investigate the gut microbiota and pro-inflammatory profile of patients with MDD.

Abstract
Lithium is the primary choice for preventing bipolar disorder relapses, endorsed by guidelines. A recent systematic review by Ulrichsen et al. showed limitations in assessing its specific impact, but data supports lithium's effectiveness in managing symptoms and preventing relapse. Comprehensive guidelines and research are crucial for its continued use.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Functional seizures (FS) are episodes of paroxysmal involuntary movements and altered consciousness without the typical changes in the electroencephalography as with epilepsy. A multidisciplinary approach is the golden standard in the treatment of FS. This study examined the cross-sectoral collaboration and treatment modalities provided to children and adolescents after a diagnosis of FS. METHOD A Danish nationwide cohort, consisting of 334 children and adolescents, aged 5-17 years, with a validated diagnosis of FS during the period 2004-2014 was studied. Medical record data were collected from diagnosing hospital departments. Management and treatment modalities from the time of diagnosis up to three months after diagnosis were explored. RESULTS The most used treatment modalities were psychoeducation (n = 289, 86.5%) and follow-up in outpatient care (n = 192, 70.6%). A cross-sectoral collaboration was initiated for a third of cases (n = 98, 29.3%). The most commonly provided treatment combination consisted of psychoeducation, follow-up in outpatient care and psychotherapy; however, only a few patients received this specific combination (n = 14, 4.2%). CONCLUSIONS The treatment applied was individualized and consisted of varying use of treatment modalities. Initiatives to curate clinical guidelines and implement a multidisciplinary treatment approach should be further explored to improve treatment for this young group of patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Sunlight contains ultraviolet B (UVB) radiation that triggers the production of vitamin D by skin. Vitamin D has widespread effects on brain function in both developing and adult brains. However, many people live at latitudes (about > 40 N or S) that do not receive enough UVB in winter to produce vitamin D. This exploratory study investigated the association between the age of onset of bipolar I disorder and the threshold for UVB sufficient for vitamin D production in a large global sample. METHODS Data for 6972 patients with bipolar I disorder were obtained at 75 collection sites in 41 countries in both hemispheres. The best model to assess the relation between the threshold for UVB sufficient for vitamin D production and age of onset included 1 or more months below the threshold, family history of mood disorders, and birth cohort. All coefficients estimated at P ≤ 0.001. RESULTS The 6972 patients had an onset in 582 locations in 70 countries, with a mean age of onset of 25.6 years. Of the onset locations, 34.0% had at least 1 month below the threshold for UVB sufficient for vitamin D production. The age of onset at locations with 1 or more months of less than or equal to the threshold for UVB was 1.66 years younger. CONCLUSION UVB and vitamin D may have an important influence on the development of bipolar disorder. Study limitations included a lack of data on patient vitamin D levels, lifestyles, or supplement use. More study of the impacts of UVB and vitamin D in bipolar disorder is needed to evaluate this supposition.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Patients with schizophrenia have an increased prevalence of risk factors for peripheral artery disease (PAD) and is expected to have an increased prevalence of PAD. PAD can be detected utilizing toe-brachial index (TBI) which screens for vascular pathology proximal to the toes. METHODS Using a cross-sectional design, we defined the subpopulations: (1) Patients diagnosed with schizophrenia less than 2 years before inclusion (SCZ < 2), (2) Psychiatric healthy controls matched to subpopulation 1 on sex, age, and smoking status, and (3) Patients diagnosed with schizophrenia 10 or more years before inclusion (SCZ ≥ 10). TBI was calculated by dividing toe pressures by systolic brachial blood pressure, and PAD was defined by TBI < 0.70. Logistic regression analysis with PAD as outcome and sex, age, smoking status, BMI, skin temperature, diagnosis of schizophrenia, and comorbidities as explanatory variables was conducted. RESULTS PAD was present in 26.2% of patients diagnosed with SCZ < 2 (17 of 65) and in 18.5% of psychiatric healthy controls (12 of 65) with no statistically significant difference in prevalence rates (p = 0.29). PAD was present in 22.0% of patients diagnosed with SCZ ≥ 10 (31 of 141). In logistic regression, patients diagnosed with SCZ < 2 had an increased odds of PAD with psychiatric healthy controls as reference (Odds ratio = 2.80, 95% confidence interval 1.09-7.23, p = 0.03). The analysis was adjusted for age, sex, smoking status, BMI and comorbidities such as hypertension, diabetes and heart disease. CONCLUSIONS This study did not find statistically significant increased prevalence rates of PAD in patients with schizophrenia even though patients with SCZ were compared to psychiatric healthy controls using TBI. Utilizing logistic regression PAD was associated with schizophrenia diagnosis within the last 2 years, age and skin temperature. As PAD is initially asymptomatic, screening could be relevant in patients with schizophrenia if other risk factors are prevalent. Further large-scale multicenter studies are warranted to investigate schizophrenia as a potential risk factor for PAD. TRIAL REGISTRATION Clinicaltrials.gov identifier NCT02885792.

Abstract
Objectives Examine whether change in clinical outcomes for patients with schizophrenia and negative symptoms randomized to either Music Therapy (MT) or Music Listening (ML) is associated to moderators and mediators, with focus on alliance, attendance and dropout. Method An exploratory post-hoc analysis of data from an original randomized controlled trial (RCT) investigating the effect of MT vs. ML for people with schizophrenia and negative symptoms. Inclusion to the study was implemented through screening of referred patients for symptoms of schizophrenia and negative symptoms. A total of 57 patients were randomly assigned, 28 to MT and 29 to ML. Session logs and notes were included in this study. Statistical analysis investigated moderator and mediator relation to outcome variables: Negative symptoms, functioning, quality of life, and retention to treatment. Results On average, participants in MT attended 18.86 sessions (SD = 7.17), whereas those in ML attended 12.26 (SD = 9.52), a statistically significant difference (p = 0.0078). Dropout at 25 weeks was predicted by intervention, with dropout being 2.65 (SE = 1.01) times more likely in ML than in music therapy (p = 0.009). Helping alliance score at weeks was explained by intervention, with mean score being 0.68 (SE = 0.32) points lower in ML than in MT (p = 0.042). The number of sessions attended was also explained by intervention, with participants in ML attending on average 6.17 (SE = 2.24) fewer sessions than those randomized to MT (p = 0.008). Though both groups improved significantly, improvements in negative symptoms, depression, and functioning tended to be higher in ML, whereas improvements in alliance and quality of life tended to be higher in MT. Conclusion The analysis could not detect a direct link between helping alliance score and outcome variables. However, the analysis documented a stronger alliance developed in the MT group, a lower dropout rate, as well as higher attendance in treatment.Clinical Trial Registration: www.ClinicalTrials.gov, identifier: NCT02942459.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Lithium is the gold standard prophylactic treatment for bipolar disorder. Most clinical practice guidelines recommend regular calcium assessments as part of monitoring lithium treatment, but easy-to-implement specific management strategies in the event of abnormal calcium levels are lacking. METHODS Based on a narrative review of the effects of lithium on calcium and parathyroid hormone (PTH) homeostasis and its clinical implications, experts developed a step-by-step algorithm to guide the initial management of emergent hypercalcemia during lithium treatment. RESULTS In the event of albumin-corrected plasma calcium levels above the upper limit, PTH and calcium levels should be measured after two weeks. Measurement of PTH and calcium levels should preferably be repeated after one month in case of normal or high PTH level, and after one week in case of low PTH level, independently of calcium levels. Calcium levels above 2.8 mmol/l may require a more acute approach. If PTH and calcium levels are normalized, repeated measurements are suggested after six months. In case of persistent PTH and calcium abnormalities, referral to an endocrinologist is suggested since further examination may be needed. CONCLUSIONS Standardized consensus driven management may diminish the potential risk of clinicians avoiding the use of lithium because of uncertainties about managing side-effects and consequently hindering some patients from receiving an optimal treatment.

Abstract
To examine the real-world effects of the cholinesterase inhibitors (AChEI) on all-cause mortality. A nationwide, retrospective cohort study. Participants were diagnosed with incident AD in Denmark from January 1, 2000 to December 31, 2011 with follow-up until December 31, 2012. A total of 36,513 participants were included in the current study with 22,063 deaths during 132,426 person-years of follow-up. At baseline, patients not treated with AChEI (n = 28,755 [9961 males (35%)]) had a mean age ± standard deviation (SD) of 80.33 ± 7.98 years (78.97 ± 8.26 for males and 81.04 ± 7.98 for females), as compared to 79.95 ± 7.67 (78.87 ± 7.61 for males and 80.61 ± 7.63 for females) in the group exposed at baseline. Patients treated with AChEI had a beneficial hazard ratio (HR) of 0.69, 95% confidence interval (CI) (0.67-0.71) for all-cause mortality as compared to patients not treated, with donepezil (HR 0.80, 95% CI [0.77-0.82]) and galantamine (HR 0.93,95% CI [0.89-0.97]) having beneficial effects on mortality rate as compared to non-treatment, whereas rivastigmine (HR 0.99, 95% CI [0.95-1.03]) was associated with a mortality rate comparable to non-treatment with AChEI. Patients were primarily exposed to donepezil (65.8%) with rivastigmine (19.8%) and galantamine (14.4%) being used less often. These findings underscore the effect of AChEI on not only reducing speed of cognitive decline but also directly prolonging life, which could result in changes in treatment recommendation for when to stop treatment.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Circadian rhythm disruption is commonly observed in bipolar disorder (BD). Daylight is the most powerful signal to entrain the human circadian clock system. This exploratory study investigated if solar insolation at the onset location was associated with the polarity of the first episode of BD I. Solar insolation is the amount of electromagnetic energy from the Sun striking a surface area of the Earth. METHODS Data from 7488 patients with BD I were collected at 75 sites in 42 countries. The first episode occurred at 591 onset locations in 67 countries at a wide range of latitudes in both hemispheres. Solar insolation values were obtained for every onset location, and the ratio of the minimum mean monthly insolation to the maximum mean monthly insolation was calculated. This ratio is largest near the equator (with little change in solar insolation over the year), and smallest near the poles (where winter insolation is very small compared to summer insolation). This ratio also applies to tropical locations which may have a cloudy wet and clear dry season, rather than winter and summer. RESULTS The larger the change in solar insolation throughout the year (smaller the ratio between the minimum monthly and maximum monthly values), the greater the likelihood the first episode polarity was depression. Other associated variables were being female and increasing percentage of gross domestic product spent on country health expenditures. (All coefficients: P ≤ 0.001). CONCLUSION Increased awareness and research into circadian dysfunction throughout the course of BD is warranted.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Describe symptoms before and at time of register-diagnosis in children and adolescents. METHODS A random sample was selected for chart-review from a Danish nationwide cohort of patients <18 years registered with an incident ICD-10 register-diagnosis of single hypomanic/manic episode or bipolar disorder between 1995 and 2014. Patients with symptoms which adequately documented a BD diagnosis in the chart were included for analysis. RESULTS 521 were diagnosed in the study period. A random sample of 25% were selected, and 106 charts were possible to retrieve, with 48 chart reviews resulting in confirmation of diagnosis. Time from first reported affective symptoms to diagnosis was 2.6 ± 2.7 years for depressive symptoms, 2.5 ± 2.9 years for mixed symptoms, 1.4 ± 1.6 years for hypomanic symptoms, and 0.4 ± 0.5 years for manic symptoms. A hierarchical clustering analysis revealed three patient-profiles: primarily hypomanic/manic, primarily depressive, and more rare, primarily mixed profile. Frequently reported symptoms prior to diagnosis include anhedonia (79%), irritability (71%), hyperactivity (62.5%), decreased energy (62.5%), and psychotic symptoms (52%).Symptoms of ADHD (19%), comorbid ADHD (15%), symptoms of anxiety (52%), comorbid anxiety (4%), suicidal thoughts (50%), suicide attempts (8%), cutting (23%), substance misuse (21%), and criminal activity (10%) were reported before incident BD diagnosis. CONCLUSION The observed patient-profiles leading to diagnosis were primarily manic or depressive, resembling presentations in adults. The presence of ADHD, anxiety, suicide attempts, cutting, and criminal activity prior to diagnosis emphasizes the need for treatment of children and adolescents with affective symptoms. The gap from appearance of the symptoms to diagnosis suggests a window for earlier treatment.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Persons with bipolar disorder (BD) have a higher cardiovascular mortality compared to the general population, partially explained by the increased burden of cardiovascular risk factors. Research regarding outcomes following acute coronary syndrome (ACS) in this population remains scarce. DESIGN This Danish register-based study included patients diagnosed with BD and ACS in the period between January 1st, 1995, to December 31st, 2013. Study participants were matched 1:2 to patients without BD on sex, date of birth, time of ACS diagnosis and comorbidities. The primary outcome of interest was major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) a composite of all-cause mortality, reinfarction or stroke. MACE and its individual components were compared between patients with and without BD. RESULTS 796 patients with BD were compared to 1592 patients without BD, both groups had a mean age of first ACS of 66.5 years. MACE was 38% increased (HR 1.38 95% CI 1.25-1.54), all-cause mortality was 71% increased (HR 1.71 95% CI 1.52-1.92), stroke was 94% increased (HR 1.94 95% CI 1.56-2.41) and reinfarction rates were 17% lower (HR 0.83 95% CI 0.69-1.00) in the BD population compared to the population without BD. We also found higher prevalences of heart failure (9.1% vs. 6.5%), valve disease (5.3% vs. 3.5%), anemia (8.7% vs. 5.8%), chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (13.4% vs. 9.3%) and stroke (11.8% vs. 7.8%) in the population with BD at baseline, all p-values <0.05. CONCLUSION Bipolar disorder was associated with a higher risk of composite MACE, all-cause mortality, and stroke, after ACS compared to patients without BD.

Abstract
Psychological distress following cancer diagnosis may lead to mental health complications including depression and anxiety. Non-Hodgkin lymphomas (NHLs) include indolent and aggressive subtypes for which treatment and prognosis differ widely. Incident use of psychotropic drugs (PDs-antidepressants, antipsychotics, and anxiolytics) and its correlation to lymphoma types can give insights into the psychological distress these patients endure. In this prospective matched cohort study, we used nationwide population-based registries to investigate the cumulative risk of PD use in NHL patients compared to a sex- and age-matched cohort from the Danish background population. In addition, contact patterns to psychiatric departments and incident intentional self-harm or completed suicide were explored. In total, 8750 NHL patients and 43 750 matched comparators were included (median age 68; male:female ratio 1.6). Median follow-up was 7.1 years. Two-year cumulative risk of PD use was higher in NHL patients (16.4%) as compared to the matched comparators (5.1%, p < .01); patients with aggressive NHL subtypes had the highest incidence. Prescription rates were higher in the first years after diagnosis but approached the rate of the matched population 5 years into survivorship in aggressive NHLs, whereas patients with indolent subtypes continued to be at higher risk. NHL patients had a slightly higher two-year risk of suicide/intentional self-harm (0.3%) as compared to the matched comparators (0.2%, p = .01). These results demonstrate that mental health complications among NHL patients are frequent. Routine assessment for symptoms of depression and anxiety should be consider as part of standard follow-up of NHL patients.

Abstract
This narrative review addresses the challenges of how to identify and treat bipolar depression. Bipolar depression, i.e. depressive episode(s) as part of bipolar disorder, can be differentiated from unipolar depression only through the previous course of illness. A correct diagnosis therefore may be delayed. The pharmacotherapy of bipolar depression differs from that of unipolar depression due to a high risk of recurrence of either hypomanic/manic or depressive episodes or mood instability. Therefore, long periods of specialized treatment will often be required. Both bipolar and unipolar depression will often benefit from adjunctive social and psychological interventions.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE With hepatic steatosis (HS) being an established risk factor for CVD in the general population, it may also be a predictor of CVD in patients with schizophrenia. The aim of the present study was to investigate if time since schizophrenia diagnosis, body mass index (BMI), sex, metabolic syndrome, alcohol use, smoking, alanine transaminase (ALT), and body fat percentage (as measured by bioelectrical impedance) were associated with HS, determined by computed tomography (CT), in a population of patients diagnosed with schizophrenia. METHODS Moderate to severe HS (40 CT Hounsfield units as threshold) was determined utilizing non-contrast enhanced CT. The association between the explanatory variables and outcome of HS was assessed using multivariable logistic regression. RESULTS In the present study, 145 patients diagnosed with schizophrenia (mean age 42.2 years (SD ± 13.8)) were included, with 88 (60.7%) being male. On average, patients had been diagnosed for 14.8 (SD ± 10.7) years. A total of 31 (21.4%) patients had HS as determined by CT. The presence of HS was associated with ALT (OR 1.06, 95% CI (1.02-1.10) per 1 U/L increase), and the presence of metabolic syndrome (OR 62.89, 95% CI (2.03-1949.55)). The presence of HS was not associated with BMI, body fat percentage or time since diagnosis in the multivariable analysis. CONCLUSION Higher ALT and the presence of metabolic syndrome were associated with HS in patients with schizophrenia utilizing multivariable analysis. The findings suggest that risk factors for HS are similar in both the general population and in patients with schizophrenia.

Abstract
Introduction The diagnosis of a life-threatening disease can lead to depression and anxiety resulting in pharmacological treatment. However, use of psychotropic drugs (antidepressants, anxiolytics, and antipsychotics) in acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) and myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) is undetermined. Methods Prescription of psychotropic drugs in Danish AML and MDS patients was compared to a cohort matched on age, sex, and country of origin from the Danish background population using national population-based registries. Results In total, 2404 AML patients (median age 69 years) and 1307 MDS patients (median age 75 years) were included and each matched to five comparators from the background population. Two-year cumulative incidences showed that AML (20.6%) and MDS (21.2%) patients had a high risk of redemption of a psychotropic drug prescription compared to the background population (7.0% and 7.9%). High age, low educational level, and Charlson Comorbidity Index score ≥1 was associated with a higher risk in AML and MDS patients. Furthermore, non-curative treatment intent and performance status in AML patients, and high risk MDS were associated with elevated risk of psychotropic drug prescription. Conclusion In conclusion, diagnoses of AML and MDS were associated with a higher rate of psychotropic drugs prescription compared to the background population.

Abstract
Motherhood involves functional brain adaptations within a broad neural network purported to underlie sensitive caregiving behavior. Bipolar disorder (BD) is associated with aberrant brain response to emotional faces within a similar network, which may influence BD mothers' sensitivity to infant faces. This functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) study aimed to investigate whether mothers with BD display aberrant neural responses to own infant faces compared to healthy mothers. Twenty-six mothers with BD in remission and 35 healthy mothers underwent fMRI during which they viewed happy and distressed still facial photographs of their own and of unknown infants. After the scan, mothers viewed the pictures again on a computer screen and rated the intensity of infants' facial emotions and their own emotional response to infant face images. Mothers with BD displayed lower left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (dlPFC) response compared to healthy mothers to own vs. unknown infant faces specifically and abnormal positive functional connectivity between the left and right amygdala and prefrontal regions. BD mothers further displayed stronger deactivation of precuneus and occipital regions to all happy vs. distressed infant faces. After the scan, they rated their infants' distress and own response to their infants' distressed faces less negatively than healthy mothers. Blunted dlPFC response and aberrant fronto-limbic connectivity while viewing own infant faces and less negative ratings of own infants' distress in BD mothers may affect their responses to their own infants in real-life mother-infant interactions.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the efficacy of music therapy for negative symptoms in patients with schizophrenia. Methods: Randomized, participant- and assessor-blinded, multicenter, controlled trial including patients diagnosed with schizophrenia according to ICD-10 with predominantly negative symptoms, between 18 and 65 years. Participants were randomized to 25 successive weekly individual sessions (excluding holidays, including cancellation by the participant) of either music therapy conducted by trained music therapists, or music listening together with a social care worker. The primary outcome was reduction in negative symptoms as measured by The Positive and negative Syndrome Scale (PANSS) negative subscale total score, assessed by a blinded rater, utilizing mixed-effects model analysis. Results: In total, 57 participants were randomized; 39 completed the study's initial 15 weeks, and 30 completed follow-up at 25 weeks. On the primary outcome of PANSS negative subscale, no significant difference was observed between groups with a coefficient of -0.24 (95% CI -1.76 to 1.27, P = 0.754) in the intention to treat analysis, and -0.98 (95% CI -5.06 to 3.09, P = 0.625) when only analyzing completers. Both interventions showed significant reduction from baseline to 25 weeks on PANSS negative subscale. On secondary outcomes, no between group differences were observed in The Brief Negative Symptom Scale, WHOQOL-Bref (Quality of Life), The Helping Alliance Questionnaire and The Global Assessment of Functioning in the intention to treat or completers populations utilizing Mixed Effects Models. Conclusion: No difference between groups randomized to music therapy vs. musical listening was observed resulting in no clear recommendation for which intervention to use as the first choice for treatment of patients diagnosed with schizophrenia and predominantly having negative symptoms.

Abstract
Differences in gut microbiota composition have been observed in patients with major depressive disorder (MDD) compared to healthy individuals. Here, we investigated if faecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) from patients with MDD into rats could induce a depressive-like phenotype. We performed FMT from patients with MDD (FMT-MDD) and healthy individuals (FMT-Healthy) into male Flinders Sensitive Line (FSL) and Flinders Resistant Line (FRL) rats and assessed depressive-like behaviour. No behavioural differences were observed in the FSL rats. In FRL rats, the FMT-Healthy group displayed significantly less depressive-like behaviour than the FMT-MDD group. However, there was no difference in behaviour between FMT-MDD FRL rats and negative controls, indicating that FMT-Healthy FRL rats received beneficial bacteria. We additionally found different taxa between the FMT-MDD and the FMT-Healthy FRL rats, which could be traced to the donors. Four taxa, three belonging to the family Ruminococcaceae and the genus Lachnospira, were significantly elevated in relative abundance in FMT-MDD rats, while the genus Coprococcus was depleted. In this study, the FMT-MDD group was different from the FMT-Healthy group based on behaviour and intestinal taxa.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the association of benzodiazepines and antidepressants on the risk of hospitalization and hip fracture in patients with dementia initiating antipsychotic drug treatment. METHODS A register-based retrospective cohort study using data on all incident dementia cases (≥65 years) initiating antipsychotic treatment as monotherapy or in combination with benzodiazepines and/or antidepressants in Denmark from 2000 to 2015. The outcomes of interest were all-cause hospitalization and hip fracture. Cox proportional hazards models with adjustment for multiple variables were used to investigate risk of hospitalization and hip fracture within 180 days. RESULTS The risk of all-cause hospitalization during 180-days follow-up was significantly increased by 55% (adjusted HR: 1.55, 95% CI: 1.29-1.86, p < 0.0001), when antipsychotic use was combined with benzodiazepines, when compared to antipsychotic monotherapy. The association between the combination of antipsychotics and benzodiazepines with the risk of hip fracture did not reach statistical significance (adjusted HR: 1.50, 95% CI: 0.99-2.26, p = 0.0534). CONCLUSIONS The observed increased risk of all-cause hospitalization and hip fracture may indicate increased drug-related adverse events. Thus, careful and regular monitoring is needed to assess response to treatment and decrease the risk of adverse events, when antipsychotics are combined with BZDs, albeit confounding cannot be fully excluded within the current design.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the accuracy of a diagnosis of pediatric bipolar disorder in the Danish National Register compared to the patient charts. Second, we reported on the occurrence of a diagnosis of pediatric bipolar disorder during the study period. METHODS All persons appearing in the Danish nationwide registers between 1995 and 2014 with an incident ICD-10 diagnosis of single hypomanic/manic episode or a diagnosis of bipolar disorder (summarized as bipolar disorder [BD]) before turning 18 years were identified (n = 521) and a random sample (n = 131) hereof was selected for chart review. Each chart was reviewed by two independent Schedules for Clinical Assessment in Neuropsychiatry (SCAN) certified raters to assess whether symptoms documented in the chart were consistent with a formal diagnosis of BD according to the ICD-10 criteria or not. RESULTS The formal diagnostic criteria for BD according to the ICD-10 were fulfilled in 48 charts (45.3%, 95% CI: [36.1%, 54.8%]) out of 106 reviewable charts, age at index = 16.4 ± 1.6 (range = 9.1-18.3) years. Cohen's Kappa ranged from 94.4% to 100%. The estimate of a lifetime prevalence up till the current age for bipolar disorder for those of aged 5-18 years, was 0.019% in 2014. CONCLUSION Less than half of the register-based pediatric BD diagnoses were confirmed by chart review, which was lower than expected. The occurrence of a register diagnosis of pediatric BD was relatively low.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cardiovascular autonomic neuropathy (CAN) is an independent predictor of cardiovascular disease (CVD) in patients with diabetes as well as in patients with pre-diabetes and metabolic syndrome. Patients with schizophrenia have an increased rate of metabolic syndrome, pre-diabetes and diabetes as compared to the general population. Despite of this, occurrence CAN has not been investigated in patient with schizophrenia. Therefore, the aims of this study were (1) to evaluate the feasibility testing for CAN with a new clinical tool and (2) report the prevalence of early and manifest CAN in patients with schizophrenia. METHODS AND RESULTS Patients with diagnosed schizophrenia and with a disease duration ≥10 years were matched 1:1 on age and gender at screening with psychiatric healthy controls. CAN was defined as ≥ two abnormal standard cardiovascular autonomic reflex tests (lying-to-standing, deep breathing, and Valsalva maneuver) using the VagusTM device. A total of 46 patients with schizophrenia were included and matched to psychiatric healthy controls. Manifest CAN were more frequently presented in patients with schizophrenia (39% vs. 6% for controls, p<.0001). Sensitivity analysis of 41 subjects with schizophrenia without diabetes matched to 41 psychiatric healthy controls, showed similar results (37% vs. 5% for controls, p<.0001). CONCLUSION CAN is highly prevalent in patients with schizophrenia. Testing for CAN is feasible and might be a new clinically tool for detecting early stages of CVD in patients with schizophrenia.

Abstract
Background Bipolar disorder is associated with circadian disruption and a high risk of suicidal behavior. In a previous exploratory study of patients with bipolar I disorder, we found that a history of suicide attempts was associated with differences between winter and summer levels of solar insolation. The purpose of this study was to confirm this finding using international data from 42% more collection sites and 25% more countries. Methods Data analyzed were from 71 prior and new collection sites in 40 countries at a wide range of latitudes. The analysis included 4876 patients with bipolar I disorder, 45% more data than previously analyzed. Of the patients, 1496 (30.7%) had a history of suicide attempt. Solar insolation data, the amount of the sun’s electromagnetic energy striking the surface of the earth, was obtained for each onset location (479 locations in 64 countries). Results This analysis confirmed the results of the exploratory study with the same best model and slightly better statistical significance. There was a significant inverse association between a history of suicide attempts and the ratio of mean winter insolation to mean summer insolation (mean winter insolation/mean summer insolation). This ratio is largest near the equator which has little change in solar insolation over the year, and smallest near the poles where the winter insolation is very small compared to the summer insolation. Other variables in the model associated with an increased risk of suicide attempts were a history of alcohol or substance abuse, female gender, and younger birth cohort. The winter/summer insolation ratio was also replaced with the ratio of minimum mean monthly insolation to the maximum mean monthly insolation to accommodate insolation patterns in the tropics, and nearly identical results were found. All estimated coefficients were significant at p < 0.01. Conclusion A large change in solar insolation, both between winter and summer and between the minimum and maximum monthly values, may increase the risk of suicide attempts in bipolar I disorder. With frequent circadian rhythm dysfunction and suicidal behavior in bipolar disorder, greater understanding of the optimal roles of daylight and electric lighting in circadian entrainment is needed.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Coronary heart disease (CHD) is a major cause of increased mortality rates in patients with schizophrenia. Moreover, coronary artery calcium (CAC) score is associated with CHD. We hypothesized that patients with schizophrenia have more CAC than the general population and aimed to investigate the CAC score in patients with schizophrenia compared to norms based on the general population. Additionally, this study investigated if age, sex, diabetes, dyslipidemia and smoking were associated with the CAC score. METHODS In a cross-sectional study, 163 patients with schizophrenia underwent cardiac computed tomography, and the CAC score was measured and compared to norms by classifying the CAC scores in relation to the age- and gender matched norm 50th, 75th and 90th percentiles. Logistic and linear regression were carried out to investigate explanatory variables for the presence and extent of CAC, respectively. RESULTS A total of 127 (77.9%) patients had a CAC score below or equal to the matched 50th, 20 (12.3%) above the 75th and nine (5.5%) above the 90th percentile. Male sex (P < 0.05), age (P < 0.001) and smoking (P < 0.05) were associated with the presence of CAC while age (P < 0.001) and diabetes (P < 0.01) were associated with the extent of CAC. CONCLUSIONS The amount of CAC in patients with schizophrenia follows norm percentiles, and variables associated with the CAC score are similar in patients with schizophrenia and the general population. These findings indicate that the CAC score may not be sufficient to detect the risk of CHD in patients with schizophrenia. Future studies should explore other measures of subclinical CHD, including measures of peripheral atherosclerosis or cardiac autonomic neuropathy to improve early detection and intervention.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The etiology of major depressive disorder (MDD) is multi-factorial and has been associated with a perturbed gut microbiota. Thus, it is therefore of great importance to determine any variations in gut microbiota in patients with MDD. METHODS A systematic literature search was conducted including original research articles based on gut microbiota studies performed in patients with MDD. Demographic and clinical characteristics, applied methodology and observed gut microbiota composition were compared between included studies. RESULTS Seventeen studies were included with a total of 738 patients with MDD and 782 healthy controls using different DNA purification methods, sequencing platforms and data analysis models. Four studies found a reduced α-diversity in patients with MDD, while gut microbiota compositions clustered separately according to β-diversity between patients and controls in twelve studies. Additionally, there was an increase in relative abundance of Eggerthella, Atopobium, and Bifidobacterium and a decreased relative abundance of Faecalibacterium in patients with MDD compared with healthy controls. CONCLUSION Gut microbiota differs significantly when comparing patients with MDD and healthy controls, though inconsistently across studies. The heterogeneity in gut microbiota compositions between the studies may be explained by variations in study design.

Abstract
This narrative review summarizes and discusses the implications of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM)-5 and the upcoming International Classification of Diseases (ICD)-11 classification systems on the prevalence of bipolar disorder and on the validity of the DSM-5 diagnosis of bipolar disorder according to the Robin and Guze criteria of diagnostic validity. Here we review and discuss current data on the prevalence of bipolar disorder diagnosed according to DSM-5 versus DSM-IV, and data on characteristics of bipolar disorder in the two diagnostic systems in relation to extended Robin and Guze criteria: 1) clinical presentation, 2) associations with para-clinical data such as brain imaging and blood-based biomarkers, 3) delimitation from other disorders, 4) associations with family history / genetics, 5) prognosis and long-term follow-up, and 6) treatment effects. The review highlights that few studies have investigated consequences for the prevalence of the diagnosis of bipolar disorder and for the validity of the diagnosis. Findings from these studies suggest a substantial decrease in the point prevalence of a diagnosis of bipolar with DSM-5 compared with DSM-IV, ranging from 30-50%, but a smaller decrease in the prevalence during lifetime, corresponding to a 6% reduction. It is concluded that it is likely that the use of DSM-5 and ICD-11 will result in diagnostic delay and delayed early intervention in bipolar disorder. Finally, we recommend areas for future research.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Knowledge regarding psychiatric disorders in children and adolescents with psychogenic nonepileptic seizures (PNES) is limited. This study outlines the spectrum and risk of psychiatric disorders in childhood-onset PNES. METHODS We performed a nationwide matched cohort study of children and adolescents with PNES 5 to 17 years of age at the time of diagnosis between January 1, 1996, and December 31, 2014. Two matched comparison groups were included: children and adolescents with epilepsy (ES) and children and adolescents without PNES or epilepsy, called healthy controls (HC). Outcomes were prevalent psychiatric disorders before index (i.e., date of diagnosis or corresponding date for HC) and incident psychiatric disorders 2 years after index. Relative risks (RRs) were calculated and adjusted for potential confounders. RESULTS We included 384 children and adolescents with validated PNES, 1,152 with ES, and 1,920 HC. Among the cases of PNES, 153 (39.8%) had prevalent psychiatric disorders and 150 (39.1%) had incident psychiatric disorders. Compared to the ES and HC groups, children and adolescents with PNES had elevated risks of both prevalent psychiatric disorders (adjusted RRPNES/ES 1.87, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.59-2.21, adjusted RRPNES/HC 5.54, 95% CI 4.50-6.81) and incident psychiatric disorders (adjusted RRPNES/ES 2.33, 95% CI 1.92-2.83, adjusted RRPNES/HC 8.37, 95% CI 6.31-11.11). A wide spectrum of specific psychiatric disorders displayed elevated RRs. CONCLUSIONS Children and adolescents with PNES are at higher risk of a wide range of psychiatric disorders compared to children and adolescents with ES and HC. A careful psychiatric evaluation is warranted to optimize and individualize treatment.

Abstract
Coronary artery disease is a major contributor to increased mortality rates in patients with schizophrenia in whom less treatment of cardiovascular (CV) risk factors is seen. Risk prediction models used in the general population are not sufficient to predict CV mortality in patients with schizophrenia. Measurement of calcium score (CACS) by cardiac CT-scan improves risk prediction in the general population, but has not been investigated in patients with schizophrenia. CACS might contribute to improved CV risk assessment and treatment in these patients and further studies should address this.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Early-onset schizophrenia (EOS) may have worse outcomes than adult-onset schizophrenia (AOS), but data are scarce. We compared outcomes of EOS vs. AOS. METHODS Longitudinal, register-based study of patients diagnosed with schizophrenia in Denmark between 1996 and 2012, with follow-up until 12/2014. Co-primary outcomes were psychiatric inpatient days during the initial two years after schizophrenia diagnosis and mean number of annual inpatient days for the remaining follow-up. RESULTS Altogether, 16,337 patients with schizophrenia were included (EOS = 1223, AOS = 15,114, mean follow-up = 9.5 ± 5.0 years). EOS were hospitalized longer during the first two years than AOS (180.9 ± 171.0 vs 163.4 ± 183.1 days, p < 0.005; IRR = 1.27, 95% CI = 1.19-1.35, p < 0.001), but duration and annual rates thereafter did not differ (EOS = 26.8 ± 57.1 days, AOS = 26.6 ± 56.2 days, p = 0.95; IRR = 1.07, 95% CI = 0.94-1.23, p = 0.30). Fewer EOS patients were never psychiatrically hospitalized (EOS = 17.2%, AOS = 20.1%, p < 0.001), but with no difference in re-admissions in patients diagnosed during hospitalization (EOS = 77.1% vs AOS = 78.1%, p = 0.56). More EOS patients were admitted involuntarily (41% vs. 36%, p < 0.02). AOS patients had more often comorbid substance use disorders during follow-up than EOS (EOS = 21.7%, AOS = 34.2%, p < 0.001). Substance use disorders and out-of-home placement were significantly associated with more inpatient days during both short- and long-term follow-up. CONCLUSION Although EOS was associated with more inpatient days in the first two years after diagnosis, results do not seem to support a generally poorer long-term outcome of EOS compared to AOS. Longer initial hospitalization may be driven by different treatment patterns in child and adolescent vs. adult psychiatry. These data suggest that patient characteristics other than age of onset significantly affect outcomes.

Abstract
Background. The efficacy of antidepressant treatment is fair, but the efficacy is considerably lower in patients failing two or more trials underscoring the need for new treatment options. Our study evaluated the augmenting antidepressant effect of 8-weeks transcranial pulsed electromagnetic field (T-PEMF) therapy in patients with treatment-resistant depression. Methods. A multicenter 8-week single-arm cohort study conducted by the Danish University Antidepressant Group. Results. In total, 58 participants (20 men and 38 women) with a moderate to severe depression as part of a depressive disorder according to ICD-10 who fulfilled criteria for treatment resistance were included, with 19 participants being nonresponders to electroconvulsive therapy during the current depressive episode. Fifty-two participants completed the study period. Scores on the Hamilton Depression Scale 17-items version (HAM-D17) decreased significantly from baseline (mean = 20.6, SD 4.0) to endpoint (mean = 12.6, SD 7.1; N = 58). At endpoint, utilizing a Last Observation Carried Forward analysis, 49 and 28% of those participants with, respectively, a nonchronic current episode (≤2 years; N = 33) and a chronic current episode (>2 years; N = 25) were responders, that is, achieved a reduction of 50% or more on the HAM-D17 scale. At endpoint, respectively, 30 and 16% obtained remission, defined as HAM-D17 ≤ 7. On the Hamilton Scale 6-item version (HAM-D6), respectively, 51 and 16% obtained remission, defined as HAM-D6 ≤ 4. Conclusions. The findings indicate a potential beneficial role of T-PEMF therapy as an augmentation treatment to ongoing pharmacotherapy in treatment-resistant depression.

Abstract
Background Cardiovascular mortality is the leading contributor to the shortened life expectancy in patients with severe mental illness (SMI), but efforts to predict cardiovascular outcomes in these patients have been lacking. In this study, we aimed to determine the severity of coronary artery calcification (CAC), and its effect on mortality rates in patients with SMI, compared with the general population. Methods All individuals with a registered cardiac computed tomography for calcium scoring in the Western Denmark Heart Registry, from January 1, 2008 to December 31, 2016, were included. We identified patients diagnosed with SMI ( International Classification of Diseases, Tenth Revision: F20, F30, F31), whereas the remaining individuals were used as a comparison group. Results Among 48 757 individuals, including 564 patients with SMI (1.2%), we found no difference in CAC score between patients with SMI and the comparison group. SMI patients with CAC >100 had an increased mortality rate (hazard ratio, 3.16; 95% CI, 1.41-7.06), as well as SMI patients with CAC <100 (hazard ratio, 3.95; 95% CI, 2.36-6.62), compared with the comparison group with CAC <100 as reference, adjusted for age, sex, and calendar period. Conclusions Patients with SMI have increased cardiovascular risks, but show no difference in CAC score, compared with the comparison group. Mortality rates were increased in patients with SMI, independent of CAC severity; however, the relatively large number of noncardiovascular causes of death in this sample might indicate other contributing factors to death than coronary artery disease in this sample of SMI patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Single physical comorbidities have been associated with the premature mortality in people with schizophrenia-spectrum disorders (SSD). We investigated the association of physical multimorbidity (≥two physical health conditions) with mortality in people with SSD. METHODS A retrospective cohort study between 2013 and 2017. All people with a diagnosis of SSD (ICD-10: F20-F29), who had contact with secondary mental healthcare within South London during 2011-2012 were included. A novel semantic search system captured conditions from electronic mental health records, and all-cause mortality were retrieved. Hazard ratios (HRs) and population attributable fractions (PAFs) were calculated for associations between physical multimorbidity and all-cause mortality. RESULTS Among the 9775 people with SSD (mean (SD) age, 45.9 (15.4); males, 59.3%), 6262 (64%) had physical multimorbidity, and 880 (9%) died during the 5-year follow-up. The top three physical multimorbidity combinations with highest mortality were cardiovascular-respiratory (HR: 2.23; 95% CI, 1.49-3.32), respiratory-skin (HR: 2.06; 95% CI, 1.31-3.24), and respiratory-digestive (HR: 1.88; 95% CI, 1.14-3.11), when adjusted for age, gender, and all other physical disease systems. Combinations of physical diseases with highest PAFs were cardiovascular-respiratory (PAF: 35.7%), neurologic-respiratory (PAF: 32.7%), as well as respiratory-skin (PAF: 29.8%). CONCLUSIONS Approximately 2/3 of patients with SSD had physical multimorbidity and the risk of mortality in these patients was further increased compared to those with none or single physical conditions. These findings suggest that in order to reduce the physical health burden and subsequent mortality in people with SSD, proactive coordinated prevention and management efforts are required and should extend beyond the current focus on single physical comorbidities.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the association of single- and multimorbidity with mortality rates in patients with schizophrenia compared to the general population. METHOD A nationwide cohort study including residents in Denmark between 1995 and 2015. The cohort was dichotomously divided by a diagnosis of schizophrenia. Somatic diseases included infections, cancer, endocrine, neurologic, cardiovascular, respiratory, digestive, skin, musculoskeletal, and urogenital diseases. Hazard ratios (HRs) and population attributable fractions (PAFs) were calculated. RESULTS The cohort included 30 210 patients with schizophrenia [mean age (SD) = 32.6 (11.4), males = 57.2%], and 5 402 611 from the general population [mean age (SD) = 33.0 (14.5), males = 50.4%]. All number of somatic diseases were associated with an increased mortality in schizophrenia [HR = 16.3 (95% CI = 15.4-17.3) for 1 disease to 21.0 (95% CI = 19.1-23.0) for ≥5 diseases], using the general population with no somatic disease as reference. Across all somatic diseases, patients with schizophrenia showed a HR > 2, compared to the general population, and respiratory (PAF = 9.3%), digestive (PAF = 8.2%), and cardiovascular (PAF = 7.9%) diseases showed largest contributions to death. CONCLUSIONS Patients with schizophrenia showed higher mortality on all levels of multimorbidity, and a doubled mortality rate across all somatic diseases, compared to the general population. The findings suggest that the clusters and trajectories of symptoms associated with schizophrenia is the main driver of the excess mortality.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate secular changes in mortality rates between patients with Alzheimer's disease (AD) and the general population as well as changes in antipsychotic drug treatment and the association between drug treatment and mortality in patients with AD in Denmark during a 12-year study period. METHODS This nationwide, retrospective cohort study identified all-cause mortality in all Danish patients with incident ICD-10-defined AD from 2000 through 2011. The cumulative antipsychotic dosages from dementia diagnosis until end of study for each participant were calculated and categorized in 1 of 5 groups per the World Health Organization Defined Daily Doses (DDDs). Data were obtained from relevant Danish national registers. RESULTS The study included 32,001 patients (11,194 male and 20,807 female). During the study period, an increasing trend was found in median survival time, but no decline was seen in standardized mortality ratios, which spanned from 1.19 (95% CI, 0.98-1.46) in 2001 to 1.52 (95% CI, 1.38-1.68) in 2011. The findings showed a decline in proportion of patients with incident AD exposed to antipsychotic drugs as well as decline in mean annual cumulative DDDs. Adjusted Cox regression analyses revealed that current exposure to antipsychotic drugs was associated with increased mortality, although hazard ratios declined during the study period from 2.24 (95% CI, 2.07-2.43) in 2000-2002 to 1.24 (95% CI, 1.09-1.41) in 2009-2011, with P values < .001. CONCLUSIONS These findings appear to underscore the current guideline recommendations for using antipsychotic drugs at only the lowest effective dose and only in patients for whom all non-pharmacologic options have been exhausted. Furthermore, these results seem to indicate that the reduced use of antipsychotic drugs has no impact on relative mortality, suggesting that the AD population has gained less from improvements in care of other diseases that impact mortality rates in patients with AD as well as in the general population.

Abstract
Background Somatic diseases, including cardiovascular, respiratory, and cancer diseases, are the main contributors to a shortened life expectancy of 10–20 years in patients with bipolar disorder as compared to the general population. In the general population an increase in survival has been observed over the last decades, primarily due to the advances in primary prophylaxis, medical treatment and progress in early detection and monitoring of somatic diseases. In this narrative review, we discuss the existing literature on treatment and outcomes of cardiovascular, respiratory, and cancer diseases in patients with bipolar disorder, and put this in the context of findings in studies on patients diagnosed with other severe mental disorders. Main body The existing literature suggests that patients with bipolar disorder receive fewer or delayed medical interventions, when admitted with severe somatic diseases, compared to those not diagnosed with bipolar disorder. Cardiovascular disease is the most investigated disease regarding outcomes in patients with severe mental illness, and novel findings indicate that the increased mortality following cardiac events in these patients can be reduced if they are intensively treated with secondary prophylactic cardiac intervention. Elderly patients diagnosed with mental disorders and cancer experience a delay in receiving specific cancer treatment. No studies have investigated treatment outcomes in patients with severe mental disease and respiratory diseases. Conclusion It is surprising and of major concern that patients with bipolar disorder have not benefitted from the significant improvement that has taken place over time over time of somatic treatments in general, especially in countries with equal and free access to healthcare services. Therefore, no matter whether this situation is a result of a negative attitude from health care providers to patients with mental illness, the result of the patient’s lack of awareness of their physical illness or the results of other factors, further attention including research on developing strategies for improving the management of somatic diseases in patients with bipolar disorder is needed.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The primary aim of this study was to examine whether the mortality of patients with bipolar disorder has increased over the past two decades as compared with the background population. METHODS All patients registered with a bipolar disorder diagnosis in the Danish Psychiatric Research Registry from 1965 until the end of 2014, living in Denmark, alive and below the age of 65 years in the study period from 1995 to 2014 were included. Included patients reaching the age of 65 years during the study period were censored at that time point. Overall standardized mortality ratios (SMRs) were calculated for each calendar year over the study period, and trends in SMR over the study period were examined using linear regression. In addition, the SMRs were stratified according to age groups. RESULTS Patients with bipolar disorder had an overall elevated mortality rate relative to the general population with an SMR of 2.8, 95% confidence interval (CI): 2.8-2.9. The highest SMR was found among the youngest (15-29 years: 8.2, 95% CI: 6.7-10.1; 30-34 years: 7.7, 95% CI: 6.4-9.3; 35-39 years: 6.2, 95% CI: 5.4-7.2; 40-44 years: 4.6, 95% CI: 4.1-5.1; 45-49 years: 3.5, 95% CI: 3.3-3.8; 50-54 years: 3.2, 95% CI: 3.0-3.4; 55-59 years: 2.7, 95% CI: 2.6-2.8; and 60-64 years: 2.2, 95% CI: 2.1-2.3). An increase in SMR of 0.03 per year in patients diagnosed with bipolar disorder (P < 0.01) was found. CONCLUSIONS The mortality gap between patients with bipolar disorder and the general Danish population has widened over the past two decades, which is a cause for concern, although reasons for the increasing mortality gap are unknown.

Abstract
Background: Three Cochrane reviews show that music therapy has a positive effect on schizophrenia concerning general functioning and positive/negative symptoms. This study aims to replicate these results in the Danish health system, a requirement for recommendation in guidelines from the Danish National Board of Health. Methods: The study is a randomized, controlled multi-site study, with a blinded design, aiming to include 90 participants who are 18⁻65 years in age, diagnosed according to ICD-10 with a schizophrenia diagnosis. The participants are randomized to one of two different music therapy activities for 25 weekly sessions. The study interventions are added to standard care. Outcome measures are rated at baseline, after 15 sessions and post therapy. A qualitative interview is performed as a one month follow up at the end of study. The primary intended outcome is a reduction in negative symptoms. The secondary intended outcome is progression in quality of life, alliance and psychosocial functioning. Results: As this study is still running, the results are not yet available. Conclusion: The study will investigate the direct effects of music therapy on negative symptoms as part of schizophrenia in a blinded, randomized trial. If proven effective, music therapy can be added to the small treatment armamentarium of effective therapies for negative symptoms in patients with schizophrenia.

Abstract
Background Patients with severe mental illness (SMI) have a reduced life expectancy of one to two decades as compared to the general population, with most years of life lost due to somatic diseases. Most previous studies on disorders constituting SMI, e.g. schizophrenia and bipolar disorder, have investigated the disorders separately and hence not compared the disorders in terms of mortality rates relative to the background population. Methods A register-based cohort study including the entire Danish population comparing mortality rates relative to the background population, controlling for age and sex, i.e. standardized mortality ratios (SMRs) in patients diagnosed with schizophrenia with those in patients diagnosed with bipolar disorder, during the study period from 1995 to 2014. Results The SMR of patients with SMI was significantly higher than one for each calendar year in the study period with an overall SMR of 4.58, 95% CI (4.48–4.69) in patients diagnosed with schizophrenia (n = 38,500) and of 2.57 (95% CI 2.49–2.65) in patients diagnosed with bipolar disorder (n = 23,092). When investigating time trends in SMR for schizophrenia and for bipolar disorder, respectively, an increase in SMR over time was shown with a mean increase of 0.03 per year for schizophrenia and 0.02 for bipolar disorder (p < 0.01 for both disorders). The ratio between SMR for schizophrenia and SMR for bipolar disorder for each calendar year over the study period was constant (p = 0.756). Conclusions Increasing SMRs over the last 20 years were found for both patients diagnosed with bipolar disorder and patients diagnosed with schizophrenia. Despite clear differences between the two disorders regarding SMRs, the increases in SMR over time were similar, which could suggest similar underlying factors influencing mortality rates in both disorders.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the efficacy of adjunctive N-acetylcysteine (NAC) for the treatment of acute bipolar depression. METHOD A randomized, double-blind, multicentre, placebo-controlled trial including adult subjects diagnosed with bipolar disorder, currently experiencing a depressive episode. Participants were treated with 3 g/day NAC or placebo as an adjunctive to standard treatment for 20 weeks, followed by a 4-week washout where the blinding was maintained. The primary outcome was the mean change in the Montgomery Asberg Depression Rating Scale (MADRS) score over the 20-week treatment phase. Linear Mixed Effects Repeated Measures (LMERM) was used for analysing the primary outcome. RESULTS A total of 80 subjects were included. The mean MADRS score at baseline was 30.1 and 28.8 in participants randomized to NAC and placebo, respectively. Regarding the primary outcome measure, the between-group difference (NAC vs. placebo) was 0.5, which was statistically non-significant (95% CI: -7.0-5.9;p = 0.88). All findings regarding secondary outcomes were statistically or clinically insignificant. LIMITATIONS The study had a placebo response rate of 55.6% - high placebo response rates are associated with failure to separate from placebo. CONCLUSIONS Based on our primary outcome measure, we could not confirm previous studies showing a therapeutic effect of adjunctive NAC treatment on acute bipolar depression. Further studies with larger samples are needed to elucidate if specific subgroups could benefit from adjunctive NAC treatment.

OBJECTIVE Investigate the associations of long-acting injectable (LAI) second generation antipsychotic drugs with number of relapses, psychiatric admissions, days hospitalized, intentional self-harm events, and costs linked to hospitalizations in incident patients diagnosed with schizophrenia. METHOD A nationwide, population-based, retrospective study utilizing mirror-image models before and after initiation of LAI SGA. RESULTS 10,509 patients were included as study population, with analyses being conducted on 2223 patients in a six-month period, 1383 in a 12-month period, 713 in a 24-month period. After initiation of LAI antipsychotics, patients experienced a reduction in number of relapses with an incidence rate ratio (IRR) of 0.60 for the first six months, IRR 0.64 for the first 12 months and IRR 0.64 for the first 24 months following initiation of LAI, all P < 0.001. The number of psychiatric admissions was reduced in a similar manner with respective IRR of 0.59, 0.60 and 0.64, all P < 0.001. Psychiatric bed-days were reduced with 58, 100 and 164 days for the respective periods after LAI initiation, all P < 0.001. In a Cox regression model in patients initiated on LAI, higher age at diagnosis, hazard rate ratio (HR) 0.99, 95%CI(0.98-0.99), P < 0.001, and a later calendar year of diagnosis, HR 0.99, 95%CI(0.98-1.00), P < 0.05, were associated with a lower risk of relapse, whereas mainly psychiatric comorbidity, HR 1.07, 95% CI (1.04-1.11), P < 0.001, and cardiovascular disease, HR 1.12, 95%CI(1.01-1.26), P < 0.05, were associated with relapse. CONCLUSION Even though the design does not allow inferences regarding causality, these population-based findings support the use of second generation LAI antipsychotics.

Abstract
IMPORTANCE Cardioprotective medication use is an important secondary preventive treatment after cardiovascular events. Patients with schizophrenia have excess cardiovascular morbidity and mortality, but no studies have investigated whether taking recommended cardioprotective medication can reduce this excess mortality. OBJECTIVE To assess the association of exposure to secondary cardiovascular treatment with all-cause mortality after myocardial infarction among patients with schizophrenia compared with the general population. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS This nationwide cohort study included individuals admitted with first-time myocardial infarction in Denmark from January 1, 1995, to December 31, 2015. The cohort was dichotomously divided by a diagnosis of schizophrenia. Data on the prescription of guideline-recommended cardioprotective medication, including antithrombotics, β-blockers, vitamin K antagonist, angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors, and statins, were obtained from the nationwide registries. EXPOSURES Time exposed to cardioprotective medication. MAIN OUTCOMES AND MEASURE Cox proportional hazards regression was used to calculate hazard ratios (HRs) with 95% CIs for the association between treatment exposure and all-cause mortality after myocardial infarction between patients with and without schizophrenia. RESULTS The cohort included 105 018 patients with myocardial infarction, including 684 patients with schizophrenia (0.7%; 483 male [70.6%]; mean [SD] age at diagnosis, 57.3 [10.6] years) and 104 334 general population patients (99.3%; 73 454 male [70.4%]; mean [SD] age at diagnosis, 61.0 [10.6] years), with a total follow-up of 796 435 person-years and 28 059 deaths. Patients diagnosed with schizophrenia who did not receive cardioprotective treatment had the highest mortality rate (HR, 8.78; 95% CI, 4.37-17.64) compared with the general population treated, with treated patients diagnosed with schizophrenia having an increased HR of 1.97 (95% CI, 1.25-3.10). The analyses of the associations of different cardiac therapy strategies with mortality rates revealed that patients with schizophrenia who were treated with any combination of triple therapy had mortality rates similar to those observed in the general population (HR, 1.05; 95% CI, 0.43-2.52) in the multivariable analysis. CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE Cardioprotective medication after myocardial infarction should be carefully managed to improve prognosis. The study results suggest that some of the increased cardiac mortality among patients with schizophrenia can be reduced if these patients are efficiently administered combinations of secondary preventive treatments after cardiac events.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Ischemic heart disease increases mortality in patients with schizophrenia. This nationwide study explored short-term and long-term mortality rates in patients with schizophrenia experiencing myocardial infarction (MI) compared to controls from the general population experiencing MI, as well as patients with schizophrenia and people from the general population not experiencing MI. METHOD A Danish nationwide cohort study including incident patients diagnosed with schizophrenia between 1980 and 2015, matched 1:5 on year of birth and gender to controls from the general population. Primary outcome was all-cause mortality. Data were analysed utilizing Cox regression models, Kaplan-Meier estimates and standardized mortality ratios (SMR). RESULTS Patients with schizophrenia experiencing MI had an increased mortality rate (Hazard rate ratio (HR) 9.94, 95%CI(8.71-11.35)), as well as schizophrenia controls (HR 4.50, 95%CI(4.36-4.64)) and MI controls (HR 3.27, 95%CI(3.03-3.52)) with controls not experiencing MI serving as reference in a model adjusted for age at entry, gender and calendar year. No difference in 30-day mortality was observed between groups experiencing MI, but increased mortality rates were shown in patients with schizophrenia at 1-year and 5-year follow-up. Trends in SMR declined in MI controls, while patients with schizophrenia showed an unchanged SMR over time. CONCLUSIONS Patients with schizophrenia have not experienced a decline in mortality rate following MI compared to the general population in long-term follow-up. This finding highlights the need for research in MI follow-up care for patients with schizophrenia.

Abstract
The objective of this study is to assess (1) the concordance and validity of schizophrenia register diagnoses among children and adolescents (early onset schizophrenia = EOS) in the Danish Psychiatric Central Research Register (DPCRR), and (2) the validity of clinical record schizophrenia diagnoses. Psychiatric records from 200 patients with a first-time diagnosis of schizophrenia (F20.x) at age < 18 years between 1994 and 2009 in the DPCRR were rated by experienced clinicians according to ICD-10 criteria, using a predefined checklist. We retrieved 178 records, representing 19.6% of all patients diagnosed with EOS from 1994 to 2009. Mean age was 15.2 years and 56.2% were males. The register-based and clinical diagnoses matched in 158 cases (88.8%). Raters' diagnoses confirmed the DPCRR schizophrenia diagnoses in 134 cases, rendering a diagnostic validity of 75.3% of DPCRR schizophrenia, while 149 cases were confirmed as being in the schizophrenia spectrum (83.7%). When removing records with registration errors, 83.5% of cases were confirmed as schizophrenia and 91.8% as being in the schizophrenia spectrum. Interrater reliability was substantial with Cohen's kappa > 0.78-0.83 depending on classification. Compared to diagnoses made in outpatient settings, EOS diagnoses during hospitalizations were more likely to be valid and had fewer registration errors. Diagnosed in inpatient settings, EOS diagnoses are reliable and valid for register-based research. Schizophrenia diagnosed in children and adolescents in outpatient settings were found to have a high number of false-positives, both due to registration errors and diagnostic practice. Utilizing this knowledge, it is possible to reduce the number of false-positives in register-based research of EOS.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To investigate the effect of delaying initiation of electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) after administration of anaesthetic agent and muscle relaxant. METHODS A retrospective cohort study utilizing a case-based analysis comparing number of re-stimulations, length of seizures, number of ECTs per series and stimulation dosage before and after introducing a new treatment regimen. In 2013, ECT was initiated approximately 60-90 seconds after administration of thiopental and succinylcholine. This interval was increased to 120 seconds in 2014. Ninety-three patients were included (40 in 2013 and 53 in 2014). Outcome measures were length of seizure, number of re-stimulations, number of ECTs per series and stimulation dosage. Regression model analyses were conducted with entering year of treatment (2013 vs. 2014), sex and age as covariates. RESULTS We showed that a lowered frequency of re-stimulation was independently associated with the 2014 treatment regimen. No effect of treatment regimen on duration of seizures as measured clinically or by EEG, on number of treatments per series or on stimulation dosage was observed. CONCLUSIONS We found an association between an increased time interval from administration of thiopental and succinylcholine to ECT and a lowered risk of re-stimulations. The current study substantially strengthens the evidence on the benefits of delaying ECT after administration of anaesthetic agent and muscle relaxant.

Abstract
Background Oxidative stress and inflammation may be involved in the development and progression of mood disorders, including bipolar disorder. Currently, there is a scarcity of useful treatment options for bipolar depressive episodes, especially compared with the efficacy of treatment for acute mania. N-Acetylcysteine (NAC) has been explored for psychiatric disorders for some time given its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. The current trial aims at testing the clinical effects of adjunctive NAC treatment (compared to placebo) for bipolar depression. We will also explore the biological effects of NAC in this context. We hypothesize that adjunctive NAC treatment will reduce symptoms of depression, which will be reflected by changes in selected markers of oxidative stress. Methods and analysis In the study, we will include adults diagnosed with bipolar disorder, in a currently depressive episode. Participants will undertake a 20-week, adjunctive, randomized, double-blinded, parallel group placebo-controlled trial comparing 3 grams of adjunctive NAC daily with placebo. The primary outcome is the mean change over time from baseline to end of study on the Montgomery–Asberg Depression Rating Scale (MADRS). Among the secondary outcomes are mean changes from baseline to end of study on the Bech-Rafaelsen Melancholia Scale (MES), the Young Mania Rating Scale (YMRS), the WHO-Five Well-being Index (WHO-5), the Global Assessment of Functioning scale (GAF-F), the Global Assessment of Symptoms scale (GAF-S) and the Clinical Global Impression-Severity scale (CGI-S). The potential effects on oxidative stress by NAC treatment will be measured through urine and blood samples. DNA will be examined for potential polymorphisms related to oxidative defences.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To confirm prior findings that the larger the maximum monthly increase in solar insolation in springtime, the younger the age of onset of bipolar disorder. METHOD Data were collected from 5536 patients at 50 sites in 32 countries on six continents. Onset occurred at 456 locations in 57 countries. Variables included solar insolation, birth-cohort, family history, polarity of first episode and country physician density. RESULTS There was a significant, inverse association between the maximum monthly increase in solar insolation at the onset location, and the age of onset. This effect was reduced in those without a family history of mood disorders and with a first episode of mania rather than depression. The maximum monthly increase occurred in springtime. The youngest birth-cohort had the youngest age of onset. All prior relationships were confirmed using both the entire sample, and only the youngest birth-cohort (all estimated coefficients P < 0.001). CONCLUSION A large increase in springtime solar insolation may impact the onset of bipolar disorder, especially with a family history of mood disorders. Recent societal changes that affect light exposure (LED lighting, mobile devices backlit with LEDs) may influence adaptability to a springtime circadian challenge.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate psychiatric outcomes after bariatric surgery, including suicide, self-harm, psychiatric service use and substance misuse. METHOD Retrospective study on a Danish nationwide register-based cohort of 22 451 patients followed for 1 029 736 person-years. Data were analysed utilizing single- and multi-event Cox regression with non-operated controls with obesity and mirror-image analyses with the operated patient serving as their own controls. RESULTS We showed an increased ratio of self-harm (hazard ratio [HR] 3.23, P < 0.001; incidence rate ratio [IRR] 1.71, P < 0.001), psychiatric service use (admissions IRR 1.52, P < 0.001; emergency room visits IRR 1.70, P < 0.001), psychiatric diagnosis (organic psychiatric disorders HR 1.78, P < 0.001; substance use HR 2.06, P < 0.001; mood disorders HR 2.66, P < 0.001; neurotic, stress-related and somatoform disorders HR 2.48, P < 0.001; behavioural syndromes HR 3.15, P < 0.001; disorders of personality HR 2.68, P < 0.001; behavioural and emotional disorders HR 6.43, P < 0.001), as well as substance misuse utilizing Cox regression as well as mirror-image analyses, as compared to non-operated. We did not find an increased suicide rate (HR 1.35, P = 0.658) among operated as compared to non-operated. CONCLUSION Our study shows that undergoing bariatric surgery is associated with increases in self-harm, psychiatric service use and occurrence of mental disorders.
