Effects of levocetirizine and diphenhydramine on regional glucose metabolic changes and hemodynamic responses in the human prefrontal cortex during cognitive tasks
ConclusionsPhysiological “coupling” between metabolism and perfusion in the healthy human brain may not be maintained under pharmacological influence due to antihistamines. This uncoupling may be caused by a combination of increased energy demands in the prefrontal regions and suppression of vascular permeability in brain capillaries after antihistamine treatment. Further research is needed to validate this hypothesis. (Source: Human Psychopharmacology: Clinical and Experimental)

Association between PLA2G12A polymorphism and patients with schizophrenia in a southern Chinese Han population
ConclusionsOur results indicated that even though PLA2G12A rs3087494 polymorphism did not influence age at onset in patients with schizophrenia, it may play an important role in the susceptibility to schizophrenia in a southern Chinese Han population.

Alcohol mixed with energy drink (AMED): A critical review and meta ‐analysis
In conclusion, when compared to AO consumption, mixing alcohol with energy drink does not affect subjective intoxication and seems unlikely to increase total alcohol consumption, associated risk‐taking behavior, nor other negative alcohol‐related consequences. Further research may be necessary to fully reveal the effects of AMED. (Source: Human Psychopharmacology: Clinical and Experimental)

Learning and memory performance following acute intranasal insulin administration in abstinent smokers
Abstract The highest incidence of relapse to smoking occurs within the first 2 weeks of a cessation attempt. In addition to enhanced nicotine craving, this phase of smoking cessation is also marked by learning and memory dysfunction. Many smokers are not able to overcome these symptoms, and they relapse to smoking shortly after trying to quit. In two clinical studies, we evaluated intranasal insulin for efficacy in improving learning and memory function during nicotine withdrawal. Our first study was a crossover evaluation (N = 19) following 20 hr of smoking abstinence. Study 2 was a parallel design study (N = 50) fo...

Relative short ‐term efficacy and acceptability of agomelatine versus vortioxetine in adult patients suffering from major depressive disorder
The objective of this present analysis is to determine the relative efficacy and acceptability of agomelatine (25–50 mg) compared to vortioxetine (10–15–20 mg) in adult patients with major depressive disorder. We performed an adjusted indirect comparison using placebo as a common control. The main outcomes were efficacy (response to treatment by Montgomery‐Åsberg depression rating scale/Hamilton Rating Scale for Depression) and acceptability (withdrawal rate for any reason or due to adverse events). 10 agomelatine and 11 vortioxetine studies were included in the analysis. For efficacy, no difference was shown be...

Gender ‐specific risk factors for low bone mineral density in patients taking antipsychotics for psychosis
ConclusionManaging the risk factors associated with low BMD among patients with psychotic disorder should be done gender‐specifically. Psychotropic agents should be prescribed mindful of their effects on bone, as use of these medications is a modifiable risk factor for osteoporosis in women with psychotic disorders.
