Sensory profiles in unipolar and bipolar affective disorders: Possible predictors of response to antidepressant medications? A prospective follow-up study

Batya Engel-Yeger, Boaz Bloch, Xenia Gonda, Giovanna Canepa, more

Journal of Affective Disorders > 2018 > 240 > C > 237-246

Sensory processing patterns have been proposed as a stable dimension able to characterize individuals with major affective disorders, but to what extent specific impairments in sensory processing may be involved in the pathophysiology of these conditions is poorly understood. We aimed to explore which sensory profiles may better respond to psychoactive medications, with particular regard to antidepressants,...

Gianluca Serafini, Gustavo H. Vazquez, Xenia Gonda, Maurizio Pompili, more

European Archives of Psychiatry and Clinical Neuroscience > 2018 > 268 > 8 > 757-768

Rates of 50–70% of residual symptoms referring to subsyndromal manifestations between episodes that do not meet the required criteria for episode definition were reported in bipolar disorder (BD). However, the specific role of these symptoms on the course of BD patients is poorly understood; thus, we aimed to investigate factors associated with depressive residual symptoms. Overall, 255 currently...

Possible predictors of age at illness onset and illness duration in a cohort study comparing younger adults and older major affective patients

Gianluca Serafini, Xenia Gonda, Fiammetta Monacelli, Matteo Pardini, more

Journal of Affective Disorders > 2018 > 225 > C > 691-701

Major affective conditions are associated with significant disability and psychosocial impairment. Whether specific socio-demographic and clinical characteristics may distinguish subgroups of patients in terms of prognosis and illness trajectories is a matter of debate.The sample of this naturalistic cohort study included 675 currently euthymic patients with major affective disorders of which 428...

Temperaments in psychotic and major affective disorders

Maurizio Pompili, Ross J. Baldessarini, Marco Innamorati, Gustavo H. Vázquez, more

Journal of Affective Disorders > 2018 > 225 > C > 195-200

Assessment of affective temperaments with the extensively validated, 110-item TEMPS-A autoquestionnaire has been used to characterize patients with mood disorders, and its scores have been associated consistently with suicidal behavior. Much less has been reported about comparisons of characteristics of such assessments in psychotic and other psychiatric disorders.We analyzed results of TEMPS-A assessments...

Sensory profiles as potential mediators of the association between hypomania and hopelessness in 488 major affective outpatients

Batya Engel-Yeger, Xenia Gonda, Giovanna Canepa, Maurizio Pompili, more

Journal of Affective Disorders > 2018 > 225 > C > 466-473

Extreme sensory processing patterns may contribute to the pathophysiology of major affective disorders. We aimed to examine whether significant correlations exist between sensory profiles, hypomania, self-reported depression, and hopelessness and whether sensory profiles may be potential mediators of the association between hypomania and depression/hopelessness.The sample consisted of 488 euthymic...

János Nemcsik, Milán Vecsey-Nagy, Bálint Szilveszter, Márton Kolossváry, more

Journal of Psychosomatic Research > 2017 > 103 > C > 108-112

A bidirectional relationship exists between psychiatric disorders and cardiovascular diseases, however less is known with regards to personality traits. Accumulating data suggest that affective temperaments are both associated with psychiatric and somatic diseases. The aim of our study was to evaluate the associations between different affective temperaments and the presence of coronary atherosclerosis...

Extreme sensory processing patterns show a complex association with depression, and impulsivity, alexithymia, and hopelessness

Gianluca Serafini, Xenia Gonda, Giovanna Canepa, Maurizio Pompili, more

Journal of Affective Disorders > 2017 > 210 > C > 249-257

The involvement of extreme sensory processing patterns, impulsivity, alexithymia, and hopelessness was hypothesized to contribute to the complex pathophysiology of major depression and bipolar disorder. However, the nature of the relation between these variables has not been thoroughly investigated.This study aimed to explore the association between extreme sensory processing patterns, impulsivity,...

Arsenic: Association of regional concentrations in drinking water with suicide and natural causes of death in Italy

Maurizio Pompili, Monica Vichi, Enrico Dinelli, Denise Erbuto, more

Psychiatry Research > 2017 > 249 > C > 311-317

Arsenic, as a toxin, may be associated with higher mortality rates, although its relationship to suicide is not clear. Given this uncertainty, we evaluated associations between local arsenic concentrations in tapwater and mortality in regions of Italy, to test the hypothesis that both natural-cause and suicide death rates would be higher with greater trace concentrations of arsenic. Arsenic concentrations...

Weak associations between the daily number of suicide cases and amount of daily sunlight

Bernadett Seregi, Balázs Kapitány, Ákos Maróti-Agóts, Zoltán Rihmer, more

Progress in Neuro-Psychopharmacology and Biological Psychiatry > 2017 > 73 > C > 41-48

Several environmental factors with periodic changes in intensity during the calendar year have been put forward to explain the increase in suicide frequency during spring and summer. In the current study we investigated the effect of averaged daily sunshine duration of periods with different lengths and ‘lags’ (i.e. the number of days between the last day of the period for which the averaged sunshine...

The relationship between sensory processing patterns, alexithymia, traumatic childhood experiences, and quality of life among patients with unipolar and bipolar disorders

Gianluca Serafini, Xenia Gonda, Maurizio Pompili, Zoltan Rihmer, more

Child Abuse & Neglect > 2016 > 62 > C > 39-50

Several studies documented the involvement of sensory perception in emotional processes. The long-term consequences of traumatic experiences and alexithymia have been demonstrated as well. However, the role of extreme sensory processing patterns, traumatic childhood experiences, and alexithymia has not been thoroughly examined in major affective disorders. The present study aimed to: (1) compare unipolar/bipolar...

Milestones in Drug Therapy > Bipolar Depression: Molecular Neurobiology, Clinical Diagnosis and Pharmacotherapy > Bipolar depression: Clinical phenotype and course of illness > 47-56

Bipolar disorders are common illnesses with markedly elevated premature mortality, but they remain frequently under-referred, under-diagnosed, and under-treated. Suicide is the cause of death in up to 15% of patients with bipolar disorders, and about half of them make at least one suicide attempt in their lifetime. The suicide rate of (untreated) bipolar patients is 25 times higher than the same rate...

Dimensions of adult attachment are significantly associated with specific affective temperament constellations in a Hungarian university sample

Andras Lang, Barbara Papp, Xenia Gonda, Peter Dome, more

Journal of Affective Disorders > 2016 > 191 > C > 78-81

Related to emotion regulation and mental health, adult attachment and affective temperaments are relevant research topics of contemporary psychiatry and clinical psychology. However, to date, only one study investigated the relationship between these two constructs. Thus, we aimed to further reveal adult attachment's association with affective temperaments.Affective temperament and adult attachment...

Temperaments in completed suicides: Are they different from those in suicide attempters and controls?

Maurizio Pompili, Marco Innamorati, Mariantonietta Milelli, Michele Battuello, more

Comprehensive Psychiatry > 2016 > 65 > C > 98-102

Temperaments in completed suicides have never been assessed whereas there is substantial research on temperaments in attempted suicides and psychiatric patients.The significant others of 18 completed suicides participated in this study in order to provide an assessment of temperaments, hopelessness, depression and the suicide risk of their loved ones. The data were compared with data from 244 psychiatric...

Associations between marital and educational status and risk of completed suicide in Hungary

Lajos Bálint, Péter Osváth, Zoltán Rihmer, Péter Döme

Journal of Affective Disorders > 2016 > 190 > C > 777-783

Suicide rates in Hungary are notoriously high. According to the literature, marital and educational status are associated with suicidal behaviour and these associations are somewhat influenced by gender. Since in Hungary these associations have not yet been investigated by means of large-scale multivariate epidemiological studies we aimed to investigate these in the current paper.Census data on marital...

Relationship of suicide rates with climate and economic variables in Europe during 2000–2012

Konstantinos N. Fountoulakis, Isaia Chatzikosta, Konstantinos Pastiadis, Prodromos Zanis, more

Annals of General Psychiatry > 2016 > 15 > 1 > 1-6

Background It is well known that suicidal rates vary considerably among European countries and the reasons for this are unknown, although several theories have been proposed. The effect of economic variables has been extensively studied but not that of climate. Methods Data from 29 European countries covering the years 2000–2012 and concerning male and female standardized suicidal rates (according...

Hyperthymic affective temperament and hypertension are independent determinants of serum brain-derived neurotrophic factor level

János Nemcsik, Andrea László, Lilla Lénárt, Dániel Eörsi, more

Annals of General Psychiatry > 2016 > 15 > 1 > 1-7

Background Brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) has neuroprotective, proangiogenic and myogenic effects and, therefore, possibly acts as a psychosomatic mediator. Here, we measured serum BDNF (seBDNF) level in hypertensive patients (HT) and healthy controls (CONT) and its relation to affective temperaments, depression and anxiety scales, and arterial stiffness parameters. Methods In this cross-sectional...

Association of affective temperaments with blood pressure and arterial stiffness in hypertensive patients: a cross-sectional study

Andrea László, Ádám Tabák, Beáta Kőrösi, Dániel Eörsi, more

BMC Cardiovascular Disorders > 2016 > 16 > 1 > 1-10

Background Affective temperaments (anxious, depressive, cyclothymic, irritable and hyperthymic) measure subclinical manifestations of major mood disorders. Furthermore, cumulating evidence suggests their involvement in somatic disorders as well. We aimed to assess associations between affective temperament scores and blood pressure and arterial stiffness parameters in hypertensive patients. Methods...
