Developing Consensus in the Assessment and Treatment Pathways for Autoimmune Encephalitis in Child and Adolescent Psychiatry
Children with a diagnosis of Autoimmune Encephalitis (AE) frequently require multi-disciplinary care in order to mobilize the assessment and treatment necessary for recovery. Institutional and provider practice differences often influence the diagnostic workup and treatment pathways made available to patients. There are a variety of provider coalitions in pediatric rheumatology, internal medicine, and neurology that have been making meaningful pr…
Worldview Under Stress
This study reports preliminary findings on the hypothesis that worldview can predict cardiovascular and cortisol responses to social stress. Based on theory and previous findings, we assumed that worldview security would provide a basis for stress resilience. Accordingly, religious and atheist individuals were expected to show higher stress resilience than spiritual and agnostic participants. Likewise, dimensional measures of religiosity and athe…
The significance of tryptophan metabolism and vitamin B-6 status in cardiovascular disease
Sex Specific Changes in Tryptophan Breakdown Over a 6 Week Treatment Period
Introduction: Despite the knowledge of sex differences concerning neurobiological parameters as well as clinical course of illness in individuals with mood disorders, the literature concerning tryptophan (Trp) breakdown, specific for women and men, is sparse to date. The current study aimed to evaluate sex differences in Trp, kynurenine (Kyn) and Kyn/Trp concentrations in general, as well as differences in changes of those concentrations over the…
Markers of Inflammation and Monoamine Metabolism Indicate Accelerated Aging in Bipolar Disorder
Background: A mild pro-inflammatory status accompanies bipolar disorder (BD). Inflammation can cause a shift in monoamine metabolism, thereby activating more cytotoxic pathways. The extent to which low-grade inflammation in BD interacts with monoamine metabolism and how this accords to aging and clinical course is unknown. Objectives: We evaluated the presence of alterations in inflammation and monoamine metabolism in BD throughout different mood…
Kynurenine and Tryptophan Levels in Patients With Schizophrenia and Elevated Antigliadin Immunoglobulin G Antibodies
OBJECTIVE: Several studies have reported an association between nonceliac gluten sensitivity and schizophrenia. Immune and kynurenine (KYN) pathways have also been implicated in the pathophysiology of schizophrenia, and certain proinflammatory immune mediators may increase KYN and reduce tryptophan (TRP) levels. METHODS: We measured serum antigliadin immunoglobulin G (IgG), KYN, and TRP in 950 patients with schizophrenia. Patients with antibody l…
Evaluating noninvasive markers of nonhuman primate immune activation and inflammation
OBJECTIVES: Health, disease, and immune function are key areas of research in studies of ecology and evolution, but work on free-ranging primates has been inhibited by a lack of direct noninvasive measures of condition. Here, we evaluate the potential usefulness of noninvasive measurement of three biomarkers, the acute-phase proteins C-reactive protein (CRP) and haptoglobin, and neopterin, a by-product of macrophage activity. MATERIALS AND METHOD…
Longitudinal Characterization of Depression and Mood States Beginning in Primary HIV Infection
The Role of Vitamin D in atherosclerosis inflammation revisited. More bystander than player
Poster Abstracts
average, this represents 1?6 l of water intake per day for females and 2 l of water intake per day for males. French national dietary survey (INCA 2) included more than 4000 people aged 3-79 years between 2006 and 2007. Volunteers declared all their food and fluid intake during a 7-d period
Fluid consumption data extract from a French national survey
Biological samples (blood and cheek-swabs) will be taken from children and parents for obesity and taste gene testing
Cacao extracts suppress tryptophan degradation of mitogen-stimulated peripheral blood mononuclear cells
Daily Psychosocial Stressors Interfere With the Dynamics of Urine Neopterin in a Patient With Systemic Lupus Erythematosus
OBJECTIVE: Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a chronic autoimmune disease characterized by flare-ups, the causes of which are not known. In accordance with new concepts in stress research, this study investigated whether daily psychosocial stressors interfere with immunological processes in SLE. Because such processes are unique to each individual, single-case design using time-series analysis (Box and Jenkins) was applied. METHODS: A 40-year…
