RESUMEN
To analyze the stages of development of the problem, identify the evolution of views and the main directions of current research in the field of bipolar affective disorder, which occurs with psychopharmacotherapy-induced manic phases, the search for publications by keywords «pharmaco-induced mania¼", «bipolar affective disorder¼ was carried out in the PubMed/MEDLINE, Russian Citation index and other sources from the mid-19th century to the present. The issue of adequate treatment of bipolar depression became relevant back in the 20th century; numerous observations indicated the presence of associated risks when using antidepressants in patients with bipolar affective disorder, namely, the likelihood of affect inversion and aggravation of the course of the disease (accelerated cyclicity, continuum). In recent years, due to the expansion of research capabilities and the introduction of biological psychiatry, works have appeared that consider this problem from both clinical and pharmacodynamic, genetic and neurophysiological aspects, which opens up the prospect of developing advanced methods of personalized medicine for the diagnosis and treatment of bipolar disorder, taking into account the need to minimize iatrogenic effects.

BACKGROUND: Published studies on the association between lithium use and the decreased risk of major neurocognitive disorders (MNCDs) have shown disparities in their conclusions. We aimed to provide updated evidence of this association. METHODS: A comprehensive literature search was performed in PubMed, EMBASE, and Cochrane Library from inception until August 31, 2023. All the observational studies evaluating the association between lithium use and MNCD risk were eligible for inclusion. Pooled odds ratios (ORs) and 95% prediction intervals were computed using random-effects models. RESULTS: Eight studies with 377,060 subjects were included in the analysis. In the general population on the association between lithium use versus nonuse and dementia, the OR was 0.94 (95% confidence interval [CI] = 0.77-1.24). Further analysis also demonstrated that lithium use was not associated with an increased risk of Alzheimer's disease (OR = 0.69, 95% CI: 0.31-1.65). When the analysis was restricted to individuals with bipolar disorder to reduce the confounding by clinical indication, lithium exposure was also not associated with a decreased risk of MNCD (OR = 0.9, 95% CI = 0.71-1.15). CONCLUSION: The results of this systematic review and meta-analysis do not support a significant association between lithium use and the risk of MNCD.

BACKGROUND: Treatment of refractory bipolar disorder (BD) is extremely challenging. Deep brain stimulation (DBS) holds promise as an effective treatment intervention. However, we still understand very little about the mechanisms of DBS and its application on BD. AIM: The present study aimed to investigate the behavioural and neurochemical effects of ventral tegmental area (VTA) DBS in an animal model of mania induced by methamphetamine (m-amph). METHODS: Wistar rats were given 14 days of m-amph injections, and on the last day, animals were submitted to 20 min of VTA DBS in two different patterns: intermittent low-frequency stimulation (LFS) or continuous high-frequency stimulation (HFS). Immediately after DBS, manic-like behaviour and nucleus accumbens (NAc) phasic dopamine (DA) release were evaluated in different groups of animals through open-field tests and fast-scan cyclic voltammetry. Levels of NAc dopaminergic markers were evaluated by immunohistochemistry. RESULTS: M-amph induced hyperlocomotion in the animals and both DBS parameters reversed this alteration. M-amph increased DA reuptake time post-sham compared to baseline levels, and both LFS and HFS were able to block this alteration. LFS was also able to reduce phasic DA release when compared to baseline. LFS was able to increase dopamine transporter (DAT) expression in the NAc. CONCLUSION: These results demonstrate that both VTA LFS and HFS DBS exert anti-manic effects and modulation of DA dynamics in the NAc. More specifically the increase in DA reuptake driven by increased DAT expression may serve as a potential mechanism by which VTA DBS exerts its anti-manic effects.

Importance: While psychedelic-assisted therapy has shown promise in the treatment of certain psychiatric disorders, little is known about the potential risk of psychotic or manic symptoms following naturalistic psychedelic use, especially among adolescents. Objective: To investigate associations between naturalistic psychedelic use and self-reported psychotic or manic symptoms in adolescents using a genetically informative design. Design, Setting, and Participants: This study included a large sample of adolescent twins (assessed at age 15, 18, and 24 years) born between July 1992 and December 2005 from the Swedish Twin Registry and cross-sectionally evaluated the associations between past psychedelic use and psychotic or manic symptoms at age 15 years. Individuals were included if they answered questions related to past use of psychedelics. Data were analyzed from October 2022 to November 2023. Main Outcomes and Measures: Primary outcome measures were self-reported psychotic and manic symptoms at age 15 years. Lifetime use of psychedelics and other drugs was also assessed at the same time point. Results: Among the 16â¯255 participants included in the analyses, 8889 were female and 7366 were male. Among them, 541 participants reported past use of psychedelics, most of whom (535 of 541 [99%]) also reported past use of other drugs (ie, cannabis, stimulants, sedatives, opioids, inhalants, or performance enhancers). When adjusting for substance-specific and substance-aggregated drug use, psychedelic use was associated with reduced psychotic symptoms in both linear regression analyses (ß, -0.79; 95% CI, -1.18 to -0.41 and ß, -0.39; 95% CI, -0.50 to -0.27, respectively) and co-twin control analyses (ß, -0.89; 95% CI, -1.61 to -0.16 and ß, -0.24; 95% CI, -0.48 to -0.01, respectively). In relation to manic symptoms, likewise adjusting for substance-specific and substance-aggregated drug use, statistically significant interactions were found between psychedelic use and genetic vulnerability to schizophrenia (ß, 0.17; 95% CI, 0.01 to 0.32 and ß, 0.17; 95% CI, 0.02 to 0.32, respectively) or bipolar I disorder (ß, 0.20; 95% CI, 0.04 to 0.36 and ß, 0.17; 95% CI, 0.01 to 0.33, respectively). Conclusions and Relevance: The findings in this study suggest that, after adjusting for other drug use, naturalistic use of psychedelic may be associated with lower rates of psychotic symptoms among adolescents. At the same time, the association between psychedelic use and manic symptoms seems to be associated with genetic vulnerability to schizophrenia or bipolar I disorder. These findings should be considered in light of the study's limitations and should therefore be interpreted with caution.

OBJECTIVES: Corticosteroids are widely prescribed for a variety of medical conditions. Accumulating evidence suggests that their use may be associated with adverse psychiatric effects, including mania. In this systematic review, we aim to critically evaluate the existing literature on the association between corticosteroid use and the emergence of mania. METHODS: We conducted a comprehensive search of major electronic databases (PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library) for relevant studies published up to the date of the search (12th January 2023). Inclusion criteria involve studies that investigate the association between corticosteroid use and the emergence of mania in adult patients. The primary outcome is the prevalence of (hypo)mania following corticosteroid administration. Secondary outcomes include potential risk factors, dose-response relationships, and differences among various corticosteroid formulations. RESULTS: The identified studies were subjected to a systematic selection process and data extraction by an independent reviewer. A total of 47 articles met the inclusion criteria for our systematic review. CONCLUSION: Our findings suggest that mania is a common side-effect of corticosteroid use, particularly in prednisone equivalent doses above 40 mg. These findings hold practical significance for clinicians and provide insights into potential interventions, including careful monitoring, dose adjustments, and consideration of psychotropic medications when managing corticosteroid-induced mania.

PURPOSE: This post hoc analysis investigated whether a patient's underlying psychiatric disease (schizophrenia/schizoaffective disorder [SCHZ] or bipolar disorder/depressive disorder [MOOD]) influenced the efficacy or safety of valbenazine for tardive dyskinesia (TD) in an Asian population. METHODS: We analyzed data from J-KINECT, a multicenter, phase II/III, randomized, double-blind study, which consisted of a 6-week placebo-controlled period followed by a 42-week extension where Japanese patients with TD received once-daily 40- or 80-mg valbenazine. We compared the change from baseline in Abnormal Involuntary Movement Scale total score and Clinical Global Impression of TD score between patients with SCHZ and those with MOOD, and incidence of treatment-emergent adverse events. RESULTS: Of 256 patients included in the placebo-controlled period, 211 continued to the long-term extension. The mean change from baseline in Abnormal Involuntary Movement Scale total score at week 6 (95% confidence interval) was -1.8 (-3.2 to -0.5) and -3.3 (-4.7 to -1.9) in the valbenazine 40- and 80-mg groups, respectively (SCHZ group), and -2.4 (-3.9 to -0.9) and -3.5 (-5.1 to -1.9) in the valbenazine 40- and 80-mg groups, respectively (MOOD group), demonstrating improvement at either dose level over placebo, regardless of the underlying disease. These results were maintained to week 48, and improvements of Clinical Global Impression of TD scores were similar. There were no notable differences in the incidence of serious or fatal treatment-emergent adverse events by underlying disease; differences in the incidence of worsening schizophrenia and depression were attributed to underlying disease progression. CONCLUSIONS: Safety and efficacy of long-term valbenazine therapy for TD did not vary according to underlying psychiatric disease.

It has been previously reported that among patients with schizophrenia that long-acting injectable (LAI) antipsychotic formulations can delay time to relapse longer when compared to their oral equivalents when patients discontinue therapy. Unanswered is whether this same pattern would be observed for patients with bipolar disorder receiving maintenance treatment. A systematic review was undertaken to identify relevant studies of LAI antipsychotics in maintenance treatment of bipolar disorder, employing a placebo-controlled randomized withdrawal design, and where equivalent studies using the corresponding oral formulation were also available. We found five studies [one aripiprazole monohydrate once monthly (AOM) study, one oral aripiprazole (OARI) study, two 2 weeks risperidone-LAI (RIS-LAI) studies, and one oral paliperidone (OPAL) study]. Numerically lower recurrence rates at 2, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 20, and 26 weeks were observed when AOM was discontinued when compared with discontinuation from OARI. Numerically lower recurrence rates at 2, 4, 6, 8, and 16 weeks were observed when RIS-LAI was discontinued when compared with discontinuation from OPAL. These results can be interpreted as a substantial delay in time to recurrence with a LAI antipsychotics formulation compared to the oral equivalent when medication is discontinued in patients with mania who had been stabilized on LAI antipsychotics or corresponding oral antipsychotics.

There is increasing interest in individualizing treatment selection for more than 25 regulatory approved treatments for major depressive disorder (MDD). Despite an inconclusive efficacy evidence base, antidepressants (ADs) are prescribed for the depressive phase of bipolar disorder (BD) with oftentimes, an inadequate treatment response and or clinical concern for mood destabilization. This study explored the relationship between antidepressant response in MDD and antidepressant-associated treatment emergent mania (TEM) in BD. We conducted a genome-wide association study (GWAS) and polygenic score analysis of TEM and tested its association in a subset of BD-type I patients treated with SSRIs or SNRIs. Our results did not identify any genome-wide significant variants although, we found that a higher polygenic score (PGS) for antidepressant response in MDD was associated with higher odds of TEM in BD. Future studies with larger transdiagnostic depressed cohorts treated with antidepressants are encouraged to identify a neurobiological mechanism associated with a spectrum of depression improvement from response to emergent mania.

BACKGROUND: Obesity is common among persons with bipolar disorder (BD). Liraglutide 3.0 mg/d subcutaneous injection is indicated for chronic weight management and associated with minimal adverse neuropsychiatric effects. This study evaluated whether liraglutide 3 mg/d reduced body weight, improved metabolic factors and eating psychopathology, and was safe and well tolerated in persons with stable BD who were obese (body mass index [BMI] >30 kg/m 2 ) or overweight (BMI ≥27 kg/m 2 ) with at least one weight-related comorbidity. METHODS: This was a 40-week, randomized (1:1 ratio), placebo-controlled, double-blind, parallel-group, 2-arm clinical trial of liraglutide targeted to 3.0 mg/d (in combination with a reduced-calorie diet and increased physical activity) in 60 participants with stable BD who were obese or overweight. Primary outcome was percent change in body weight from baseline to study end. Secondary outcomes included percentage of patients who lost ≥5% of baseline body weight, and changes in metabolic variables and measures of eating psychopathology. RESULTS: There were no significant baseline differences between the 29 liraglutide recipients and the 31 placebo recipients, except that liraglutide recipients had higher levels of binge eating and lower levels of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol. Compared with placebo, liraglutide was associated with significantly greater reductions in percent change in body weight, percentage of participants who lost at least 5% of body weight, and reductions in weight, BMI, hemoglobin A 1c levels, binge eating, and hunger. Liraglutide was well tolerated. CONCLUSIONS: Liraglutide 3 mg/d may be efficacious and safe for weight loss in individuals with stable BD and obesity or overweight. TRIAL REGISTRATION: ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT03158805).

BACKGROUND: As clinical practices with lithium salts for patients diagnosed with bipolar disorder (BD) are poorly documented in Asia, we studied the prevalence and clinical correlates of lithium use there to support international comparisons. METHODS: We conducted a cross-sectional study of use and dosing of lithium salts for BD patients across 13 Asian sites and evaluated bivariate relationships of lithium treatment with clinical correlates followed by multivariate logistic regression modeling. RESULTS: In a total of 2139 BD participants (52.3% women) of mean age 42.4 years, lithium salts were prescribed in 27.3% of cases overall, varying among regions from 3.20% to 59.5%. Associated with lithium treatment were male sex, presence of euthymia or mild depression, and a history of seasonal mood change. Other mood stabilizers usually were given with lithium, often at relatively high doses. Lithium use was associated with newly emerging and dose-dependent risk of tremors as well as risk of hypothyroidism. We found no significant differences in rates of clinical remission or of suicidal behavior if treatment included lithium or not. CONCLUSIONS: Study findings clarify current prevalence, dosing, and clinical correlates of lithium treatment for BD in Asia. This information should support clinical decision-making regarding treatment of BD patients and international comparisons of therapeutic practices.

Relapse associated with multiple hospital readmissions of patients with chronic and severe mental disorders, such as psychosis and bipolar disorder, is frequently associated with non-adherence to treatment. The primary aim of the study was to compare the effectiveness of long-acting injectable (LAI) treatment, vs. oral medication in reducing readmissions of patients with psychotic or bipolar disorder in a community sample of 164 patients with psychosis and 29 patients with bipolar disorder (n = 193), with poor adherence to oral medication. The mean follow up period was 5.6 years and the number of readmissions were compared for an equal-length period of oral treatment preceding the onset of LAI administration. We observed a significant decrease of 45.2 % in total hospital readmissions after receiving LAIs treatment. The effect was significant both for patients with a pre-LAI treatment history of predominantly voluntary hospitalizations and with predominantly involuntary admissions. In addition, we observed equal effectiveness of first- vs. second-generation LAIs in reducing total hospital readmissions regardless of type of pre-treatment admission history (voluntary vs. involuntary). LAIs appear to be effective in reducing both voluntary and involuntary hospital readmissions in patients with psychosis and bipolar disorder with a history of poor adherence to treatment.

INTRODUCTION: Dopamine (DA) is likely to be involved in some depressive dimensions, such as anhedonia and amotivation, which account for a part of treatment-resistant forms. Monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAOI) and direct D2 and D3 receptors agonists (D2/3r-dAG) are known to help, but we lack safety data about their combined usage. We report on safety and tolerance of the MAOI+D2r-dAG combination in a clinical series. METHOD: All patients referred to our recourse center for depression between 2013 and 2021 were screened to select those who did receive the combo. Data were extracted from clinical files. RESULTS: Sixteen patients of 60±17 years of age (8 women, 7 with age>65years, all suffered from treatment resistant depression, 7 with bipolar disorder) received the combo. There were no life-threatening adverse effects (AE). However, AE were reported by 14 patients (88%) most of which were mild and consisted of insomnia, nausea, nervousness, confusion, impulse control disorder and/or "sleep attacks". One patient presented a serious AE requiring a short hospitalization for confusion. Intolerance led to failure to introduce treatment in two patients (13%). The retrospective non-interventional design, the variety of molecules, and the modest sample size limited the scope of these results. CONCLUSION: There was no life-threatening safety issue in combining MAOI and D2/3r-dAG, especially regarding cardiovascular side effects. The systematic screening of AE might account for their frequency, but these precluded the treatment in only two patients. Comparative studies are needed to assess the efficacy of this new combination.

OBJECTIVE: The objective of this study was to review the available literature for dexmedetomidine sublingual film use in the treatment of acute agitation associated with schizophrenia and bipolar disorders. DATA SOURCES: A literature search of PubMed (January 2017-March 2023) and EMBASE (January 2017-March 2023) was performed using the terms: Igalmi, dexmedetomidine, schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, and agitation. Additional information sources include ClinicalTrials.gov, scientific posters, and articles identified through review of references from clinical trials publications. STUDY SELECTION AND DATA EXTRACTION: Relevant English-language articles conducted in humans were considered, with a preference for phase 3 clinical trials. Trial analyses and articles discussing pharmacology, pharmacokinetics, efficacy, and safety were also evaluated. DATA SYNTHESIS: Dexmedetomidine sublingual film was evaluated for use in schizophrenia in the SERENITY 1 pivotal trial and for bipolar disorders in the SERENITY 2 pivotal trial. Both studies found treatment of mild to moderate agitation with dexmedetomidine sublingual film 180 and 120 µg to be superior to placebo in reducing the severity of agitation. Treatment effect was seen as early as 20 minutes. Somnolence was the most common adverse effect in both studies. Cardiovascular adverse effects were mild and transient in most cases. RELEVANCE TO PATIENT CARE AND CLINICAL PRACTICE: Dexmedetomidine sublingual film is a new and novel treatment for agitation and gives clinicians an alternative to antipsychotic and benzodiazepine use. It has advantageous properties including its noninvasive route of administration, fast absorption, and rapid onset of effect. Cost may limit its use. CONCLUSION: Dexmedetomidine sublingual film provides an alternative approach to treatment of acute agitation in adults with schizophrenia and bipolar disorders based on both mechanism of action and route of administration.

INTRODUCTION: The challenges posed by treatment-resistant schizophrenia and depressive symptoms have led to ongoing difficulties despite the availability of antipsychotics and antidepressants. This review addresses the potential of amisulpride analogs, particularly SEP-4199, in addressing these challenges through enhanced efficacy and reduced side effects. AREAS COVERED: This review focuses on the pharmacological profile of amisulpride analogs, exemplified by LB-102 and its derivative SEP-4199. PubMed gathered articles (up to 10 March 2023) on 'amisulpride,' 'schizophrenia,' 'bipolar disorder,' and 'major depressive disorder;' ClinicalTrials.gov tracked SEP-4199 and LB-102 trials. LB-102, a newly identified N-methylated analog of amisulpride, exhibits enhanced lipophilicity at lower doses, as demonstrated in a phase 1 study, indicating significant promise for therapeutic applications. The discovery of SEP-4199, a non-racemic analog composed of R- and S-enantiomers in an 85:15 ratio, is discussed, emphasizing its potential to enhance antidepressant effects while minimizing extrapyramidal side effects via selective D2 receptor binding. Recent phase 2 trials have demonstrated SEP-4199's efficacy in treating depressive symptoms in bipolar disorder I, capitalizing on D2-mediated anti-anhedonic and D3-mediated reward effects. EXPERT OPINION: The development of SEP-4199 presents a potential breakthrough for managing depressive symptoms in bipolar disorder I. Further exploration of D2 and D3 receptor-mediated effects could lead to improved treatment strategies.

BACKGROUND: The purpose of this study was to review the association between the SLC6A4 5-HTTLPR polymorphism and antidepressant (AD)-associated treatment emergent mania (TEM) in bipolar disorder alongside starting a discussion on the merits of developing risk stratification models to guide when not to provide AD treatment for bipolar depression. METHODS: Studies that examined the association between clinical and genetic risk factors, specifically monoaminergic transporter genetic variation, and TEM were identified. A meta-analysis was performed using the odds ratio to estimate the effect size under the Der-Simonian and Laird model. RESULTS: Seven studies, referencing the SLC6A4 5-HTTLPR polymorphism and TEM (total N = 1578; TEM+ =594, TEM- = 984), of 142 identified articles were included. The time duration between the start of the AD to emergence of TEM ranged from 4 to 12 weeks. There was a nominally significant association between the s allele of the 5-HTTLPR polymorphism and TEM (odds ratio, 1.434; 95% confidence interval, 1.001-2.055; P = 0.0493; I2 = 52%). No studies have investigated norepinephrine or dopamine transporters. CONCLUSION: Although the serotonin transporter genetic variation is commercially available in pharmacogenomic decision support tools, greater efforts, more broadly, should focus on complete genome-wide approaches to determine genetic variants that may contribute to TEM. Moreover, these data are exemplary to the merits of developing risk stratification models, which include both clinical and biological risk factors, to guide when not to use ADs in bipolar disorder. Future studies will need to validate new risk models that best inform the development of personalized medicine best practices treating bipolar depression.
