  • Body mass index is associated with the antidepressant effects of intravenous ketamine in patients with depression

    Open Access•Jian-Qiang Tan, Li-Mei Gu et al.•ARTICLE•Frontiers in Psychiatry•2025

    Our exploratory, post-hoc analysis of an open-label, single-arm study suggests that patients with depression and a higher baseline BMI may experience greater reductions in depressive symptoms compared with those with a lower baseline BMI after receiving six ketamine infusions

  • A comparison of the antianhedonic effects of repeated ketamine infusions in melancholic and non-melancholic depression

    Open Access•Wei Zheng, Xin-Hu Yang et al.•ARTICLE•Frontiers in Psychiatry•2022

    After six ketamine infusions, the improvement of anhedonic symptoms was found in both patients with melancholic and non-melancholic depression, and the efficacy was similar in both groups

  • Plasma Vegf Concentrations and Ketamine's Effects on Suicidal Ideation in Depression With Suicidal Ideation

    Open Access•Wei Zheng, Li-Mei Gu et al.•ARTICLE•Frontiers in Psychiatry•2022

    This preliminary finding does not support a role for VEGF in the antisuicidal effects of serial ketamine treatments in individuals with depression and suicidal ideation. Further research is needed to confirm and expand these findings

  • Gender differences in the antianhedonic effects of repeated ketamine infusions in patients with depression

    Open Access•Wei Zheng, Xin-Hu Yang et al.•ARTICLE•Frontiers in Psychiatry•2022

    The rates of antianhedonic response and remission to multiple ketamine infusions for the treatment of depression were similar between males and females. These findings should be verified by future studies, preferably randomized controlled trials (RCTs)

  • Association of Vegf With Antianhedonic Effects of Repeated-Dose Intravenous Ketamine in Treatment-Refractory Depression

    Open Access•Wei Zheng, Li-Mei Gu et al.•ARTICLE•Frontiers in Psychiatry•2021

    Objectives: To first explore the role of plasma vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) concentrations in ketamine's antianhedonic effects, focusing on Chinese patients with treatment-refractory depression (TRD). Methods: Seventy-eight patients with treatment-refractory major depressive disorder (MDD) or bipolar disorder (BD) were treated with six ketamine infusions (0.5 mg/kg). Levels of anhedonia were measured using the Montgomery-Åsberg Depr…
