    Abstract Introduction: Aripiprazole is a third generation antipsychotic approved by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the treatment of schizophrenia. Aripiprazole is available as oral and long-acting injectable (LAI) depot formulations, with a unique mechanism of action comprising partial D
    Areas covered: We review short-and-long-term clinical trials, meta-analyses of clinical trials and product information pertaining to the safety and efficacy of aripiprazole in adults with schizophrenia. Formulations of aripiprazole reviewed include oral aripiprazole, Aripiprazole monohydrate LAI (Abilify Maintena©) and Aripiprazole lauroxil LAI (Aristada©). Clinical studies and product information were collected from PubMed, Psychinfo, Embase, and other web sources.
    Expert opinion: Aripiprazole is a generally well-tolerated third-generation antipsychotic with low rates of motor side effects and metabolic adverse effects that occur commonly with several alternative antipsychotics. Akathisia and tremor appear to occur at higher rates with aripiprazole compared to placebo but are still generally uncommon with incidences of 10-11% or less. Uniquely, aripiprazole treatment is associated with reduced serum prolactin levels and QT

  3. Article ; Online: Caffeine Restrictions in Inpatient Psychiatric Settings: Precipitating Withdrawal?

    Shapiro, Bryan

    Abstract : Caffeine is often restricted in locked inpatient psychiatric facilities based on concern that it may exacerbate clinical symptoms. However, psychiatric inpatients may be at particularly high risk of caffeine withdrawal during psychiatric hospitalization, which may cause undue discomfort or distress, limit their engagement in inpatient treatment, and confound the management of psychiatric illness. Psychiatric patients who regularly consume caffeine also possess a degree of caffeine tolerance which may reduce the risk of adverse effects associated with continued inpatient caffeine intake. For these reasons, it appears reasonable to allow caffeine in inpatient psychiatric settings.

    Abstract Background: Serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SRI) antidepressants are commonly associated with withdrawal reactions. The Discontinuation Emergent Signs and Symptoms (DESS) checklist has been considered the gold standard research and screening tool for SRI withdrawal but has several limitations, including its length, lack of specificity, and omission of baseline symptom and symptom severity scores, making it impractical for use in clinical or research settings. We investigated the prevalence and severity of common SRI withdrawal symptoms to determine whether a very small subset of symptoms can capture most occurrences of SRI withdrawal.
    Methods: We surveyed 344 members of online peer-support communities aged 18-65, reporting withdrawal symptoms after chronic SRI treatment. The severity of nine common withdrawal symptoms was evaluated at baseline and during the withdrawal period.
    Results: Dizziness, brain zaps, irritability/agitation, and anxiety/nervousness demonstrated the largest increase in severity during withdrawal relative to baseline. Nearly all (97.7%) of the 344 subjects and all (100%) 153 subjects with relatively low baseline symptom scores (total<5) reported a worsening of one of these four symptoms. The presence of a baseline anxiety disorder did not affect rates of withdrawal-emergent anxiety/nervousness.
    Conclusion: Nearly all surveyed subjects reported worsening either of dizziness, brain zaps, irritability/agitation, or anxiety/nervousness in acute withdrawal. A screening test incorporating these four core symptoms may be sufficiently sensitive to rule out SRI withdrawal and may be valuable in clinical and research settings. Incorporating withdrawal symptom severity may further enhance specificity.

    Abstract Objective: Report the details of an unusual case of initially unilateral intradural spontaneous otogenic pneumocephalus in which the patient developed contralateral pneumocephalus after surgical repair of temporal bone and dural defects on the initial side. Discuss the lessons learned concerning management and pathophysiology of this rare case.
    Patient: A 73-year-old male presenting with bilateral retro-orbital pain and headache was found to have unilateral intradural pneumocephalus in the temporal lobe with an adjacent defect in the temporal bone.
    Intervention: Surgical repair of the initial defect in the temporal bone and dura via a middle cranial fossa approach with obliteration of the mastoid cavity.
    Results: The patient's symptoms and degree of pneumocephalus on first affected side decreased initially after surgery. Two weeks after surgery he developed worsening pneumocephalus on the contralateral side in the temporal and frontal lobes with weakness and mild somnolence. This side was repaired via a similar technique without mastoid obliteration. Two weeks after surgery the patient recovered to normal level of consciousness with mild residual weakness.
    Conclusions: Spontaneous otogenic intradural pneumocephalus is an extremely rare but serious condition related to defects in the temporal bone and dura. The precise mechanism by which this occurs is poorly understood. This unusual case where there were bilateral defects presenting with spontaneous otogenic pneumocephalus in sequence illustrates that it represents a rare sequelae of processes which thin the skull base. These processes should be addressed in addition to acute management of the defect and intracranial air.

    Abstract Melanoma is characterized by oncogenic mutations in pathways regulating cell growth, proliferation, and metabolism. Greater than 80% of primary melanoma cases harbor aberrant activation of the mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase/extracellular-signal-regulated kinase (MEK/ERK) pathway, with oncogenic mutations in BRAF, most notably BRAF V600E, being the most common. Significant progress has been made in BRAF-mutant melanoma using BRAF and MEK inhibitors; however, non-V600 BRAF mutations remain a challenge with limited treatment options. We report the case of an individual diagnosed with stage III BRAF D594G-mutant melanoma who experienced an extraordinary response to the ERK1/2 inhibitor ulixertinib as fourth-line therapy. Ulixertinib was obtained via an intermediate expanded access protocol with unique flexibility to permit both single-agent and combination treatments, dose adjustments, breaks in treatment to undergo surgery, and long-term preventive treatment following surgical resection offering this patient the potential for curative treatment.

    Abstract Most psychiatric care is delivered in primary care settings, where depression is the most common presenting psychiatric symptom. Given the high prevalence of depression worldwide and the well-established consequences of untreated depression, the ability of primary care clinicians to effectively diagnose and treat it is critically important. This article offers up-to-date guidance for the diagnosis and treatment of major depressive disorder, including practical considerations for delivering optimal and efficient care for these patients.
