Subregional thalamic functional connectivity abnormalities and cognitive impairments in first-episode schizophrenia
CONCLUSION: Our findings suggest FC abnormalities between thalamic subregions and cortical areas in FES patients. Increased FC correlated with cognitive deficits and negative symptoms, highlighting the importance of thalamo-cortical connectivity in the pathophysiology of schizophrenia.PMID:38615577 | DOI:10.1016/j.ajp.2024.104042 (Source: Asian Journal of Psychiatry)

The co-occurrence of multiple sclerosis and bipolar disorder: A case series on clinical and neuroimaging correlates
We describe the clinical profile and neuroimaging findings of four cases of MS with BD. Among them, two patients had multiple mood episodes preceding the neurological symptoms, one had concurrent manic and neurological symptoms, and one had multiple depressive episodes and an isolated steroid-induced manic episode. Frontal and temporal lobes, and Periventricular White Matter were involved in all four cases, and hence may be considered biological substrates of BD in MS. Larger studies are needed to validate the utility of these findings.PMID:38615578 | DOI:10.1016/j.ajp.2024.104041 (Source: Asian Journal of Psychiatry)

Relationship between ruminative style and adolescent depression
CONCLUSION: Different associations may exist between adolescent ruminative tendency, ruminative style, and depression, and the proposal of ruminative style is of great significance for intervention in adolescent depression.PMID:38598933 | DOI:10.1016/j.ajp.2024.104008 (Source: Asian Journal of Psychiatry)

Comparison of V-RISK-Y and V-RISK-10 for risk of violence: A one-year study from a psychiatric emergency department for adolescents
Asian J Psychiatr. 2024 Apr 4;96:104044. doi: 10.1016/j.ajp.2024.104044. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThere has been a lack of short and simple screening instruments to assess the risk of violence in youth. Many acute youth departments have used the V-RISK-10, a risk screener for adults. V-RISK-Y is a risk screener based on the V-RISK-10 and adapted to youths. Our aim was to compare the predictive validity between V-RISK-Y and VRISK-10 in an emergency psychiatric adolescent ward. Target population were all 92 patients admitted within one year, and study population consisted of 49 (53 %) patients who had completed data. V-...

Sex differences in brain excitability revealed by concurrent iTBS/fNIRS
Asian J Psychiatr. 2024 Apr 3;96:104043. doi: 10.1016/j.ajp.2024.104043. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTSex differences have been claimed an imperative factor in the optimization of psychiatric treatments. Intermittent theta-burst stimulation (iTBS), a patterned form of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation, is a promising non-invasive treatment option. Here, we investigated whether the real-time neural response to iTBS differs between men and women, and which mechanisms may mediate these differences. To this end, we capitalized on a concurrent iTBS/functional near-infrared spectroscopy setup over the left dorsolater...

Legal aspects of proxy practices in clinical psychiatry in India
Asian J Psychiatr. 2024 Mar 27;96:104031. doi: 10.1016/j.ajp.2024.104031. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTProxy procedures in psychiatry include proxy consultations, proxy prescriptions, covert and refill medications. Before Mental Healthcare Act (MHCA) 2017, there was minimal emphasis on the rights of individuals with Severe Mental Illness (SMI), leading family members to use proxy practices. With the new legislation, these practices have to be seen in a new light. Proxy consultations may be allowed for information, advice, etc. but not for giving medications or making a diagnosis. Proxy prescriptions can be given if the pa...
