Sex differences in effectiveness and adverse effects of mood stabilizers and antipsychotics: A systematic review. J Affect Disord 2024; 352:171-192. [PMID: 38367709 DOI: 10.1016/j.jad.2024.02.038] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/09/2023] [Revised: 02/01/2024] [Accepted: 02/11/2024] [Indexed: 02/19/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Psychiatric disorders differ in their prevalence, symptom profiles, and disease courses in men and women. However, sex differences in psychiatric disorders have not received enough attention to guide treatment recommendations. This systematic review aims to summarize sex differences in the treatment responses and adverse effects of mood stabilizers and antipsychotics transdiagnostically. METHODS We conducted a systematic review following the PRISMA 2020 statement (CRD42020212478). A literature search was conducted using MEDLINE, Embase, Cochrane Central, PsycINFO, Web of Science Core Collection, and Scopus databases. Studies comparing mood stabilizer or antipsychotic treatment outcomes in men and women were included. JBI critical appraisal checklists were used to assess bias risk. RESULTS Out of 4866 records, 129 reports (14 on mood stabilizers, 115 on antipsychotics) with varying designs were included. Sample sizes ranged from 17 to 22,774 participants (median = 147). The most common psychiatric diagnoses were schizophrenia spectrum (n = 109, 84.5 %) and bipolar disorders (n = 38, 29.5 %). Only four studies explored sex differences in mood stabilizer treatment response. In 40 articles on antipsychotic treatment response, 18 indicated no sex difference, while 16 showed females had better outcomes. Women had more adverse effects with both mood stabilizers and antipsychotics. The risk of bias was low in 84 (65.1 %) of studies. LIMITATIONS Substantial heterogeneity among the studies precluded performing a meta-analysis. CONCLUSION Number of studies focusing on sex differences in treatment outcomes of mood stabilizers is limited. Women may respond better to antipsychotics than men, but also experience more side effects. The impact of pharmacokinetics on sex differences warrants more attention.

Catatonia: demographic, clinical and laboratory associations. Psychol Med 2023; 53:2492-2502.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Catatonia, a severe neuropsychiatric syndrome, has few studies of sufficient scale to clarify its epidemiology or pathophysiology. We aimed to characterise demographic associations, peripheral inflammatory markers and outcome of catatonia. METHODS Electronic healthcare records were searched for validated clinical diagnoses of catatonia. In a case-control study, demographics and inflammatory markers were compared in psychiatric inpatients with and without catatonia. In a cohort study, the two groups were compared in terms of their duration of admission and mortality. RESULTS We identified 1456 patients with catatonia (of whom 25.1% had two or more episodes) and 24 956 psychiatric inpatients without catatonia. Incidence was 10.6 episodes of catatonia per 100 000 person-years. Patients with and without catatonia were similar in sex, younger and more likely to be of Black ethnicity. Serum iron was reduced in patients with catatonia [11.6 v. 14.2 μmol/L, odds ratio (OR) 0.65 (95% confidence interval (CI) 0.45-0.95), p = 0.03] and creatine kinase was raised [2545 v. 459 IU/L, OR 1.53 (95% CI 1.29-1.81), p < 0.001], but there was no difference in C-reactive protein or white cell count. N-Methyl-d-aspartate receptor antibodies were significantly associated with catatonia, but there were small numbers of positive results. Duration of hospitalisation was greater in the catatonia group (median: 43 v. 25 days), but there was no difference in mortality after adjustment. CONCLUSIONS In the largest clinical study of catatonia, we found catatonia occurred in approximately 1 per 10 000 person-years. Evidence for a proinflammatory state was mixed. Catatonia was associated with prolonged inpatient admission but not with increased mortality.

Abstract
Tardive dyskinesia is a involuntary hyperkinetic disorder which usually occurs in older patients after long-term treatment with antipsychotic drugs. These dyskinesias are mostly irreversible and are frequently expressed in the tongue, cheeks, mandible, perioral area and other regions of the face. In this theoretical study we asked the question, why does tardive dyskinesia often have orofacial predominance? What might be the underlying neural network structure which contributes to this propensity? Graph analysis of high-level cortico-striato-thalamo-cortical network structure suggests a connectivity bottleneck. The number of walks of different lengths from the substantia nigra pars reticulata (SNr) to other vertices, as well as the returning cycles are the lowest in the network, which may indicate a higher damage susceptibility of this node. Analysis was also performed on published data from a recent high resolution histological study on cortico-striato-thalamo-cortical networks in rodents. Finer network partitioning and adjacency matrices demonstrated that the SNr has a heterogeneous connectivity structure and the number of local walks from nodes neighboring orofacial neural representation is higher, indicating possible early compensatory escape routes. However, with more extensive SNr damage the larger circuit compensation might be limited. This area of inquiry is important for future research, because identifying key vulnerable structures may provide more targeted therapeutical interventions.

Abstract
Antipsychotic-induced parkinsonism (AIP) is the most common type of extrapyramidal side effect (EPS), caused by the blockage of dopamine receptors. Since dopamine availability might influence the AIP risk, the dopamine transporter (DAT) and serotonin receptors (5-HTRs), which modulate the dopamine release, may be also involved in the AIP development. As some of the individual differences in the susceptibility to AIP might be due to the genetic background, this study aimed to examine the associations of SLC6A3, HTR2C and HTR6 gene polymorphisms with AIP in haloperidol-treated schizophrenia patients. The Extrapyramidal Symptom Rating Scale (ESRS) was used to evaluate AIP as a separate entity. Genotyping was performed using a PCR, following the extraction of blood DNA. The results revealed significant associations between HTR6 rs1805054 polymorphism and haloperidol-induced tremor and rigidity. Additionally, the findings indicated a combined effect of HTR6 T and SLC6A3 9R alleles on AIP, with their combination associated with significantly lower scores of ESRS subscale II for parkinsonism, ESRS-based tremor or hyperkinesia and ESRS subscales VI and VIII. These genetic predictors of AIP could be helpful in better understanding its pathophysiology, recognizing the individuals at risk of developing AIP and offering personalized therapeutic strategies for the patients suffering from this EPS.

Abstract
IMPORTANCE The American Medical Association has acknowledged the public health threat posed by racism in medicine. While clinicians in psychiatry have echoed the sentiment, the research community has largely been silent. Current understanding of the biological domains that underlie psychiatric disorders was historically established by studying White populations, often leaving widely used treatments ineffective for Asian, Black, Hispanic, Indigenous, and other racial and ethnic minority individuals. This article addresses how undersampling of racial and ethnic minority individuals has led to overgeneralized physiological findings, the implications for development of psychiatric treatments, and steps to improve service to racially diverse communities. OBSERVATIONS Three primary observations regarding differences associated with race and ethnicity have been addressed in the existing psychiatric research: misdiagnosis, medication nonadherence, and treatment efficacy and expression of adverse effects. While cultural factors have been discussed as potential factors associated with these differences, a lack of understanding of physiologic systems may be foundational to each of these issues. Recent evidence points to race differences in psychophysiological measures, likely attributed to factors including the lived experience of racism as opposed to inherent biological differences. This mounting evidence supports a reassessment of existing work to examine potential divergent patterns within racial and ethnic groups. The following strategies may improve understanding of the influence of racism on physiology, allowing clinicians to better address psychiatric symptoms and improve existing treatment approaches. Thus, psychiatric researchers need to (1) understand the historic and current terminology for race and ethnicity and use appropriate terms and categories as defined by sociologists, population health experts, and databases while respecting individuals' right to self-identify, (2) refine research questions, and (3) reexamine research data to determine whether patterns observed in largely White populations can extend to other groups. To appropriately implement these steps, researchers must accept the discomfort that accompanies growth, invite scientists from diverse backgrounds to participate, and use resources to increase diversity in recruitment of study participants. This will require a commitment from funding agencies to provide adequate support to recruit and investigate large, diverse samples. CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE To create more suitable medical treatments and improve the quality of care received by those with psychiatric conditions, further discussion is needed surrounding the physiologic toll that racism has had on multiple generations of racial and ethnic minority groups and how that may alter responsivity to biobehavioral interventions. To better inform psychiatric research, the resources provided must be expanded, basic physiologic studies should be replicated with more diverse samples and adequate analyses, and psychiatry scientists must reconsider approaches to clinical research.

Abstract
UNLABELLED Tardive dyskinesia (TD) is a movement disorder that can develop with the use of dopamine receptor-blocking agents and is most commonly caused by antipsychotics. The use of antipsychotics is expanding, which may lead to an increased number of patients experiencing TD. To summarise the current knowledge of the epidemiology and risk factors for TD in Japan, we reviewed articles related to the current state of knowledge around TD identified through a PubMed search, and held a roundtable discussion of experts in Japan on 9 September 2021 to form the basis of the opinion presented within this review. The true prevalence of TD among patients treated with antipsychotics is not well characterised; it is reported to be between 15% and 50% globally and between 6.5% and 7.7% in Japan. Potential barriers to timely treatment of TD include the stigma surrounding mental health issues and the lack of data regarding TD in Asian patients. This review summarises the current knowledge of the epidemiology, challenges to TD diagnosis and risk factors for TD in Japan. Recent strategies for symptom monitoring and early diagnosis, as well as consensus recommendations are included. Achieving a high level of awareness of TD among physicians who treat patients with psychiatric disorders is of great importance and physicians should ensure that patients with psychiatric disorders receiving antipsychotics are proactively monitored for signs of TD.

Abstract
The introduction of chlorpromazine and the work that ensued provided the foundation to reposition schizophrenia as a biological illness. The present paper follows the evolution of antipsychotics and their shift from 'typical' to 'atypical'. Atypicality is reviewed in reference to its original definition, clozapine's role, and developments that now leave the concept's utility in question. In a similar fashion, drug development is reviewed in the context of the illness' multiple symptom domains, as well as differences captured by clinical staging and phenotyping. Collectively, the evidence argues for a more nuanced approach to drug development that aligns with the illness' heterogeneity and complexity. Just as 'atypical' as a descriptor for antipsychotics may be outdated, it may be time to set aside the notion of developing drugs that treat 'schizophrenia'.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Network analysis provides a new viewpoint that explicates intertwined and interrelated symptoms into dynamic causal architectures of symptom clusters. This is a process called 'symptomics' and is concurrently applied to various areas of symptomatology. AIMS Using the data from Research on Asian Psychotropic Prescription Patterns for Antipsychotics (REAP-AP), we aimed to estimate a network model of extrapyramidal syndrome in patients with schizophrenia. METHODS Using data from REAP-AP, extrapyramidal symptoms of 1046 Asian patients with schizophrenia were evaluated using the nine items of the Drug-Induced Extrapyramidal Symptoms Scale (DIEPSS). The estimated network of the ordered-categorical DIEPSS items consisted of nodes (symptoms) and edges (interconnections). A community detection algorithm was also used to identify distinctive symptom clusters, and correlation stability coefficients were used to evaluate the centrality stability. RESULTS An interpretable level of node strength centrality was ensured with a correlation coefficient. An estimated network of extrapyramidal syndrome showed that 26 (72.2%) of all possible 35 edges were estimated to be greater than zero. Dyskinesia was most centrally situated within the estimated network. In addition, earlier antipsychotic-induced extrapyramidal symptoms were divided into three distinctive clusters - extrapyramidal syndrome without parkinsonism, postural instability and gait difficulty-dominant parkinsonism, and tremor-dominant parkinsonism. CONCLUSIONS Our findings showed that dyskinesia is the most central domain in an estimated network structure of extrapyramidal syndrome in Asian patients with schizophrenia. These findings are consistent with the speculation that acute dystonia, akathisia, and parkinsonism could be the risk factors of tardive dyskinesia.

The genetics of drug-related movement disorders, an umbrella review of meta-analyses. Mol Psychiatry 2020; 25:2237-2250.

Abstract
This umbrella review investigates which genetic factors are associated with drug-related movement disorders (DRMD), in an attempt to provide a synthesis of published evidence of candidate-gene studies. To identify all relevant meta-analyses, a literature search was performed. Titles and abstracts were screened by two authors and the methodological quality of included meta-analyses was assessed using 'the assessment of multiple systematic reviews' (AMSTAR) critical appraisal checklist. The search yielded 15 meta-analytic studies reporting on genetic variations in 10 genes. DRD3, DRD2, CYP2D6, HTR2A, COMT, HSPG2 and SOD2 genes have variants that may increase the odds of TD. However, these findings do not concur with early genome-wide association studies. Low-power samples are susceptible to 'winner's curse', which was supported by diminishing meta-analytic effects of several genetic variants over time. Furthermore, analyses pertaining to the same genetic variant were difficult to compare due to differences in patient populations, methods used and the choice of studies included in meta-analyses. In conclusion, DRMD is a complex phenotype with multiple genes that impact the probability of onset. More studies with larger samples using other methods than by candidate genes, are essential to developing methods that may predict the probability of DRMD. To achieve this, multiple research groups need to collaborate and a DRMD genetic database needs to be established in order to overcome winner's curse and publication bias, and to allow for stratification by patient characteristics. These endeavours may help the development of a test with clinical value in the prevention and treatment of DRMD.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the effects of once-daily valbenazine (40 or 80 mg/d) in older and younger adults with tardive dyskinesia (TD). METHODS Data were pooled from three 6-week, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled (DBPC) studies (KINECT [NCT01688037], KINECT 2 [NCT01733121], and KINECT 3 [NCT02274558]) and two long-term studies (KINECT 3 extension and KINECT 4 [NCT02405091]). Outcomes analyzed in older and younger participants (55 years or older and younger than 55 years, respectively) included Abnormal Involuntary Movement Scale (AIMS) response (threshold of greater than or equal to 50% improvement from baseline in total score [items 1 to 7]) and Clinical Global Impression of Change-Tardive Dyskinesia (CGI-TD) response (score 2 or less ["very much improved" or "much improved"]). Safety assessments included treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs). RESULTS At week 6 (end of DBPC treatment), the percentage of participants who met the AIMS response threshold was higher with valbenazine versus placebo in both subgroups: 55 years or older (80 mg/d, 39.7% [P < .001]; 40 mg/d, 28.6% [P < .01]; placebo, 9.7%); younger than 55 years (80 mg/d, 39.5% [P < .001]; 40 mg/d, 20.0% [P > .05]; placebo, 10.8%). The percentage of participants with CGI-TD response was also higher with valbenazine versus placebo: 55 years or older (80 mg/d, 41.3% [P < .01]; 40 mg/d, 30.2% [P > .05]; placebo, 19.4%); younger than 55 years (80 mg/d, 39.5% [P < .05]; 40 mg/d, 35.3% [P < .05]; placebo, 18.5%). Responses at week 48 (end of long-term treatment, combined doses) were as follows: 55 years or older (AIMS, 70.7%; CGI-TD, 82.8%); younger than 55 years (AIMS, 58.7%; CGI-TD, 72.3%). No significant differences between older and younger subgroups were found for AIMS or CGI-TD response. No new safety signals or TEAEs of clinical concern were found in older participants who received long-term treatment. CONCLUSIONS Valbenazine improved TD and was generally well tolerated in older and younger adults.

Abstract
Background Tardive dyskinesia (TD) is a serious, often irreversible movement disorder caused by prolonged exposure to antipsychotics; identifying patients at risk for TD is critical to preventing it. Predictive models for the occurrence of TD can improve patient monitoring and inform implementation of counteractive interventions. This study aims to identify risk factors associated with TD and to develop a model using a retrospective data analysis to predict the incidence of TD among patients taking antipsychotic medications. Methods Adult patients with schizophrenia, major depressive disorder, or bipolar disorder taking oral antipsychotics were identified in a Medicaid claims database (covering six US states from 1997 to 2016) and divided into cohorts based on whether they developed TD within 1 year after the first observed claim for antipsychotics. Patient characteristics between cohorts were compared, and univariate Cox analyses were used to identify potential TD risk factors. A cross-validated version of the least absolute shrinkage and selection operator regression method was used to develop a parsimonious multivariable Cox proportional hazards model to predict diagnosis of TD. Results A total of 189,415 eligible patients were identified. Potential TD risk factors were identified based on the cohort analysis within a sample of 151,280 patients with at least 1 year of continuous eligibility. The prediction model had a clinically meaningful concordance of 70% and was well calibrated (P = 0.32 for Hosmer–Lemeshow goodness-of-fit test). Age (hazard ratio [HR] = 1.04, P < 0.001), diagnosis of schizophrenia (HR = 1.99, P < 0.001), antipsychotic dosage (up to 100 mg/day chlorpromazine equivalent; HR = 1.65, P < 0.01), and comorbid bipolar and related disorders (HR = 1.39, P < 0.01) were significantly associated with an increased risk of TD. Other potential risk factors included history of extrapyramidal symptoms (HR = 1.35), other movement disorders (parkinsonism, HR = 1.43; bradykinesia, HR = 1.44; tremors, HR = 2.12, and myoclonus, HR = 2.33), and diabetes (HR = 1.13). A modest reduction in the risk of TD was associated with the use of second-generation antipsychotics (HR = 0.85) versus first-generation drugs. Conclusions This study identified factors associated with development of TD among patients taking antipsychotics. The prediction model described herein can enable physicians to better monitor patients at high risk for TD and recommend appropriate treatment plans to help maintain quality of life.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW To provide an update on the frequency of antipsychotic-induced tardive dyskinesia and its management in patients with schizophrenia spectrum disorders in studies published since the last systematic review in 2008. RECENT FINDINGS Recent data about antipsychotic-induced tardive dyskinesia in patients with schizophrenia underscore the superiority of newer generation antipsychotics (21%) over first-generation antipsychotics (30%) with respect to prevalence and incidence rates. Regarding recently tested management strategies, the new vesicular monoamine transporter 2 inhibitors valbenazine and deutetrabenazine have been found to be effective and may be considered as first-line pharmacotherapy for tardive dyskinesia. Owing to quality issues of randomized controlled trials and/or small sample sizes, limited and conflicting evidence remains for most treatment strategies. SUMMARY The reviewed literature reveals lower prevalence rates of antipsychotic-induced tardive dyskinesia in patients treated with newer generation compared with first-generation antipsychotics. The evidence of vesicular monoamine transporter 2 inhibitors as a first-line therapy for tardive dyskinesia is well supported by several controlled clinical trials.

Abstract
Tardive dyskinesia (TD) encompasses the spectrum of iatrogenic hyperkinetic movement disorders following exposure to dopamine receptor-blocking agents (DRBAs). Despite the advent of atypical or second- and third-generation antipsychotics with a presumably lower risk of complications, TD remains a persistent and challenging problem. Prevention is the first step in mitigating the risk of TD, but early recognition, gradual withdrawal of offending medications, and appropriate treatment are also critical. As TD is often a persistent and troublesome disorder, specific antidyskinetic therapies are often needed for symptomatic relief. The vesicular monoamine transporter 2 (VMAT2) inhibitors, which include tetrabenazine, deutetrabenazine, and valbenazine, are considered the treatment of choice for most patients with TD. Deutetrabenazine-a deuterated version of tetrabenazine-and valbenazine, the purified parent product of one of the main tetrabenazine metabolites, are novel VMAT2 inhibitors and the only drugs to receive approval from the US FDA for the treatment of TD. VMAT2 inhibitors deplete presynaptic dopamine and reduce involuntary movements in many hyperkinetic movement disorders, particularly TD, Huntington disease, and Tourette syndrome. The active metabolites of the VMAT2 inhibitors have high affinity for VMAT2 and minimal off-target binding. Compared with tetrabenazine, deutetrabenazine and valbenazine have pharmacokinetic advantages that translate into less frequent dosing and better tolerability. However, no head-to-head studies have compared the various VMAT2 inhibitors. One of the major advantages of VMAT2 inhibitors over DRBAs, which are still being used by some clinicians in the treatment of some hyperkinetic disorders, including TD, is that they are not associated with the development of TD. We also briefly discuss other treatment options for TD, including amantadine, clonazepam, Gingko biloba, zolpidem, botulinum toxin, and deep brain stimulation. Treatment of TD and other drug-induced movement disorders must be individualized and based on the severity, phenomenology, potential side effects, and other factors discussed in this review.

Abstract
Although highly prevalent, motor syndromes in psychiatry and motor side effects of psychopharmacologic agents remain understudied. Catatonia is a syndrome with specific motor abnormalities that can be seen in the context of a variety of psychiatric and somatic conditions. The neuroleptic malignant syndrome is a lethal variant, induced by antipsychotic drugs. Therefore, antipsychotics should be used with caution in the presence of catatonic signs. Antipsychotics and other dopamine-antagonist drugs can also cause motor side effects such as akathisia, (tardive) dyskinesia, and dystonia. These syndromes share a debilitating impact on the functioning and well-being of patients. To reduce the risk of inducing these side effects, a balanced and well-advised prescription of antipsychotics is of utmost importance. Clinicians should be able to recognize motor side effects and be knowledgeable of the different treatment modalities.

Covariation between motor signs and negative symptoms in drug-naive subjects with schizophrenia-spectrum disorders before and after antipsychotic treatment. Schizophr Res 2018; 200:85-91.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To examine the covariation between negative symptoms and motor signs in a broad sample of drug-naïve subjects with schizophrenia-spectrum psychoses before and after inception of antipsychotic medication. METHODS One-hundred and eighty-nine antipsychotic-naïve subjects with DSM-IV schizophrenia-spectrum psychoses were assessed for negative symptoms including affective flattening, alogia, avolition/apathy and anhedonia/associality, and motor signs including catatonia, parkinsonism and dyskinesia. We examined the association between negative and motor features at baseline, 4-weeks after inception of antipsychotic treatment and that of their mean change over the treatment period, such as their trajectories and treatment response pattern. RESULTS At the drug-naïve state, motor signs were strongly related to affective flattening and alogia (p<0.01); at 4-weeks, most negative and motor features were significantly interrelated (p<0.01); mean change of motor signs and negative symptoms tended to be unrelated. This association pattern was irrespective of levels of positive symptoms. Ratings of negative symptoms, excepting affective flattening, improved after treatment (p<0.001) while motor ratings showed divergent trajectories with catatonia improving (p<0.001), parkinsonism worsening (p<0.001) and dyskinesia remaining unchanged (p>0.01). Although to a different extent, motor and negative features showed drug-responsive, drug-worsening, of drug-unchanged patterns of response to antipsychotic medication. The main predictors of negative and motor features in treated subjects were their corresponding baseline ratings (p<0.001). CONCLUSIONS Negative and motor features are differentiated, but to some extent, overlapping domains that are meaningfully influenced by antipsychotic medication. At the drug-naïve state, motor signs and the diminished expression domain of negative symptoms may share underlying neurobiological mechanisms.

Abstract
The benefits of antipsychotic medications are sometimes obscured by their adverse effects. These effects range from relatively minor tolerability issues (e.g., mild sedation or dry mouth) to very unpleasant (e.g., constipation, akathisia, sexual dysfunction) to painful (e.g., acute dystonias) to disfiguring (e.g., weight gain, tardive dyskinesia) to life-threatening (e.g., myocarditis, agranulocytosis). Importantly, adverse effect profiles are specific to each antipsychotic medication and do not neatly fit into first- and second-generation classifications. This paper reviews management strategies for the most frequent side effects and identifies common principles intended to optimize net antipsychotic benefits. Only use antipsychotics if the indication is clear; only continue antipsychotics if a benefit is discernible. If an antipsychotic is providing substantial benefit, and the adverse effect is not life-threatening, then the first management choice is to lower the dose or adjust the dosing schedule. The next option is to change the antipsychotic; this is often reasonable unless the risk of relapse is high. In some instances, behavioral interventions can be tried. Finally, concomitant medications, though generally not desirable, are necessary in many instances and can provide considerable relief. Among concomitant medication strategies, anticholinergic medications for dystonias and parkinsonism are often effective; beta-blockers and anticholinergic medications are useful for akathisia; and metformin may lead to slight to moderate weight loss. Anticholinergic drops applied sublingually reduce sialorrhea. Usual medications are effective for constipation or dyslipidemias. The clinical utility of recently approved treatments for tardive dyskinesia, valbenazine and deutetrabenazine, is unclear.

Abstract
Despite ethnic differences in allele frequencies of variants in dopaminergic genes associated with dopamine D2/D3 receptor availability (D2R), no study to date has investigated the relationship between genetic ancestry and striatal D2R. Here, we show that ancestry-informative markers significantly predict dorsal striatal D2R in 117 healthy ethnically diverse residents of the New York metropolitan area using Positron Emission Tomography (PET) with [11C]raclopride (P<0.0001), while correcting for age, sex, BMI, education, smoking status, and estimated socioeconomic status (ZIP codes). Effects of ethnicity on D2R were not driven by variation in dopaminergic candidate genes. Instead, candidate gene associations with striatal D2R were diminished when correcting for ancestry. These findings imply that future studies investigating D2 receptor genes should covary for genetic ancestry or study homogeneous populations. Moreover, ancestry studies on human neurobiology should control for socioeconomic differences between ethnic groups.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Tardive dyskinesia (TD) is a severe condition that can affect almost 1 out of 4 patients on current or previous antipsychotic treatment, including both first-generation antipsychotics (FGAs) and second-generation antipsychotics (SGAs). While two novel vesicular monoamine transporter inhibitors, deutetrabenazine and valbenazine, have shown acute efficacy for TD, the majority of patients do not remit, and TD appears to recur once treatment is withdrawn. Hence, prevention of TD remains a crucial goal. METHODS We provide a clinically oriented overview of risk factors for TD, dividing them into patient-, illness- and treatment-related variables, as well as nonmodifiable and modifiable factors. RESULTS Unmodifiable patient-related and illness-related risk factors for TD include older age, female sex, white and African descent, longer illness duration, intellectual disability and brain damage, negative symptoms in schizophrenia, mood disorders, cognitive symptoms in mood disorders, and gene polymorphisms involving antipsychotic metabolism and dopamine functioning. Modifiable comorbidity-related and treatment-related factors include diabetes, smoking, and alcohol and substance abuse, FGA vs SGA treatment, higher cumulative and current antipsychotic dose or antipsychotic plasma levels, early parkinsonian side effects, anticholinergic co-treatment, akathisia, and emergent dyskinesia. DISCUSSION Clinicians using dopamine antagonists need to consider risk factors for TD to minimize TD and its consequences.

Abstract
Background Motor abnormalities (MAs) of severe mental disorders have been traditionally neglected both in clinical practice and research, although they are an increasing focus of attention because of their clinical and neurobiological relevance. For historical reasons, most of the literature on MAs has been focused to a great extent on schizophrenia, and as a consequence their prevalence and featural properties in other psychiatric or neuropsychiatric disorders are poorly known. In this article, we evaluated the extent to which catatonic, extrapyramidal and neurological soft signs, and their associated clinical features, are present transdiagnostically. Methods We examined motor-related features in neurodevelopmental (schizophrenia, obsessive compulsive disorder, autism spectrum disorders), "functional" (nonschizophrenic nonaffective psychoses, mood disorders) and neurodegenerative (Alzheimer's disease) disorders. Examination of the literature revealed that there have been very few comparisons of motor-related features across diagnoses and we had to rely mainly in disorder-specific studies to compare it transdiagnostically. Results One or more motor domains had a substantial prevalence in all the diagnoses examined. In "functional" disorders, MAs, and particularly catatonic signs, appear to be markers of episode severity; in chronic disorders, although with different degree of strength or evidence, all motor domains are indicators of both disorder severity and poor outcome; lastly, in Alzheimer's disease they are also indicators of disorder progression. Conclusions MAs appear to represent a true transdiagnostic domain putatively sharing neurobiological mechanisms of neurodevelopmental, functional or neurodegenerative origin.

Abstract
Acute extrapyramidal symptoms (EPS) occur frequently in schizophrenia, mostly caused by antidopaminergic substances. There have been no published reports on the impact of acute EPS on cerebral blood flow (CBF) or related measures. In the following study, we examined schizophrenic patients with and without EPS during a planning task and measurements of CBF velocity. Sixteen patients with chronic schizophrenia and 16 healthy participants performed a planning paradigm during bilateral functional transcranial Doppler sonography of the middle cerebral arteries. Patients with acute EPS showed blunted CBF velocity exclusively during difficult planning tasks, and correlation analyses confirmed that higher EPS scores were associated with reduced adaption of CBF velocity. EPS in schizophrenia are associated with a detrimental effect on CBF velocity. Hypothetically, compromised adaptation of cerebral hemodynamics during difficult, but not during easy planning tasks is one correlate of dysfunctional frontostriatal circuits in schizophrenic patients with EPS.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Drug-related movement disorders (DRMDs) reduce quality of life and contribute to medication noncompliance of patients with psychotic disorders. Little is known about the epidemiology of DRMDs in relatively young patients a few years after onset of psychosis. This is an important period to study, as the impact of the antipsychotic treatment on the long-term potentiation of the neural pathways associated with psychotic disorders and DRMDs is still minimal. This study investigated the prevalence, incidence, persistence, and clinical correlates of DRMDs in patients during their first years after disease onset. METHODS The Genetic Risk and Outcome of Psychosis study is a longitudinal study of 1120 relatively young patients with nonaffective psychosis and a mean age and illness duration of 27 and 4 years, respectively. The following drug-related movement disorders were assessed at baseline and at the 3-year follow-up: parkinsonism, akathisia, tardive dyskinesia, and tardive dystonia. We determined prevalence, incidence, and persistence and investigated clinical correlates at and over the baseline and follow-up assessment. RESULTS Patients' mean age and illness duration at baseline were 27.1 and 4.3 years, respectively. In 4 patients, 1 developed a DRMD over the 3-year study period. Prevalence, incidence, and persistence rates were highest for parkinsonism (32%, 21%, and 53%) followed by akathisia (9%, 5%, and 17%) and tardive dyskinesia (4%, 3%, and 20%). Significant associations were found between DRMDs and the patients' age, IQ, and psychopathology. CONCLUSIONS The prevalence, persistence, and incidence of DRMDs in this sample were high despite the relatively young age, recent onset of the disorder, and treatment primarily with second-generation antipsychotics. These findings emphasize that screening, diagnosis, and treatment of DRMDs are still important.

Abstract
Tardive dyskinesia (TD) remains a relevant clinical problem despite the increasing use of new-generation antipsychotics. Antipsychotic-induced tardive syndromes are difficult to treat and have a low tendency of remission. Therefore, prophylaxis is of utmost importance, with the responsible use of antipsychotics as a prime desideratum. With respect to managing tardive dyskinesia, discontinuing the antipsychotic, if possible, albeit not backed up by unequivocal evidence, is still the main recommendation. If this is not possible, the switch to an antipsychotic with a lower TD risk is the next-preferred option. Other symptomatic treatments have been explored, but clinical trials have provided inhomogeneous results and only very few compounds are approved for the treatment of tardive dyskinesia. This manuscript summarizes the current evidence with respect to the phenomenology, course, prevention and treatment of tardive syndromes.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Tardive dyskinesia (TD) is a movement disorder of tongue, jawbone, trunk and/or limbs that may appear after a prolonged use of dopamine receptor blocking agents (after 3 months of treatment or after 1 month for patients over 60), and that are present during at least four consecutive weeks. TD is a frequent side effect of both classical neuroleptics and new generation antipsychotic drugs. The prevalence of iatrogenic TD is between 24 and 32 % after treatment with classical neuroleptics and about 13 % after treatment with a new generation antipsychotic. OBJECTIVE This paper presents an updated literature review of data on diagnosis, prevention and treatment of TD. METHODS We conducted a review of literature using the Medline Browser tool, screening studies from 1950 to 2013 in English or French with keywords « tardive dyskinesia », « tardive dystonia », and « abnormal movements caused by antipsychotic drugs ». RESULTS We first describe and define semeiological features of TD: dystonia, tremor, myoclonus, acathisie, chorea, ballism and athetosia. Secondarily, we resume the main differential diagnoses to exclude when confronted with this kind of movement disorders. Differential diagnoses for dyskinesia can be classified between primary (Parkinson and Huntington diseases) and secondary (Wilson disease, intoxication, metabolic abnormality, cerebrovascular accident) abnormal movements. Psychogenic TD can be evocated if previous pathologies are excluded in case of atypical clinical presentation. We detail the risk factors for TD. Endogenous risk factors are related to the patient's age, underlying psychiatric disease (bipolar disorder or Alzheimer dementia), addiction to alcohol or cocaine, female gender, or neurodevelopmental vulnerability. Iatrogenic risk factors are high doses of antipsychotics, long or intermittent administration, and particular pharmaceutical classes or associations of antipsychotics. As a comprehensive tool, we review the main physiopathological hypotheses to explain the occurrence of TD in some patients: hypersensitivity of D2 neuronal receptor or neurotoxicity associated with oxidative stress mechanisms. We also summarize the current guidelines for prevention and treatment of TD. Three successive curative strategies are suggested in the literature. First, the clinician can adapt the current antipsychotic treatment (switch to a new generation antipsychotic, diminution or cessation of antipsychotic drugs). If this first intervention is not pertinent or ineffective, the clinician can prescribe an antikinetic therapeutic agent, such as tetrabenazine, or an antioxidant. Review of the published studies does not show proof of efficacy of cholinergic or anticholinergic drugs, benzodiazepine or other GABAergic drugs, nor for amantadine. Non-medication therapeutics such as ECT and TMS are discussed, but the level of proof is insufficient to promote them as a curative treatment for TD. In case of high resistance and discomfort for the patient, a neurosurgical intervention should be discussed. These curative interventions are limited, emphasising the importance of TD prevention, by limiting the prescription and doses of antipsychotics, regularly evaluating their side effects and informing the patient of TD's risk. CONCLUSION We propose to practitioners a synthesised update of literature concerning a frequent iatrogenic effect of antipsychotics. Nevertheless, no solid guidelines have as yet been established, and further clinical studies are expected in order to better understand this frequent and discomforting side effect.

Abstract
The primary aim of the present study was to assess the possible associations between dopaminergic, serotonergic, and glutamatergic system-related genes and adverse events after antipsychotic treatment in paranoid schizophrenia patients. The second aim of the study was to compare the intensity of these symptoms between atypical (ziprasidone and olanzapine) and typical (perazine) antipsychotic drugs. One-hundred and ninety-one Polish patients suffering from paranoid schizophrenia were genotyped for polymorphisms of DRD2, DAT1, COMT, MAOA, SERT, 5HT2A, and GRIK3. The patients were randomized to treatment with perazine, olanzapine or ziprasidone monotherapy for 3 months. The intensity of side effects (changes in body weights and extrapyramidal symptoms (EPS)) was measured at baseline and after 12 weeks of antipsychotic treatment. After 3 months of therapy, the weight increase was the greatest in the group treated with olanzapine and the least in the group treated with ziprasidone. None of the examined gene polymorphisms was associated with the body weight changes. Perazine treatment was associated with the significantly highest intensity of EPS. None of the examined polymorphisms was associated with the changes in extrapyramidal adverse events after antipsychotic treatment. The selected polymorphisms are not primarily involved in changes in body weights and EPS related to antipsychotic treatment in paranoid schizophrenia patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Tardive dyskinesia (TD) is one of the most distressing side effects of antipsychotic treatment. As prevalence studies of TD in Asian population are scarce, a cross-sectional study was performed to assess the frequency of TD in Indian patients with schizophrenia and risk factors of TD. METHOD Cross-sectional study of 160 Indian patients fulfilling the DSM-IV TR criteria for schizophrenia and who received antipsychotics for at least one year, were examined with two validated scales for TD. Logistic regression analyses were used to examine the relationship between TD and clinical risk factors. RESULTS The frequency of probable TD in the total sample was 26.4%. The logistic regression yielded significant odds ratios between TD and age, intermittent treatment, and total cumulative antipsychotic dose. The difference of TD between SGA and FGA disappeared after adjusting for important co-variables in regression analysis. CONCLUSION Indian patients with schizophrenia and long-term antipsychotic treatment have a high risk of TD, and TD is associated with older age, intermittent antipsychotic treatment, and a high total cumulative antipsychotic dose. Our study findings suggest that there is no significant difference between SGAs with regards to the risk of causing TD as compared to FGAs.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The objective of this study was to evaluate the relationship between antipsychotic-induced tardive dyskinesia (TD) and estimated dopamine D2 receptor occupancy levels in patients with schizophrenia, using the dataset from the Clinical Antipsychotic Trials in Intervention Effectiveness (CATIE). METHODS The dataset from 218 subjects (risperidone, N=78; olanzapine, N=100; ziprasidone, N=40) who presented with a score of zero on the Abnormal Involuntary Movement Scale (AIMS) at baseline in Phase 1 of the CATIE study, and remained for ≥6months, was used. Peak and trough dopamine D2 receptor occupancy levels on the day of the AIMS assessment at the endpoint were estimated from plasma antipsychotic concentrations, using population pharmacokinetic analysis and our D2 prediction model. The estimated dopamine D2 receptor occupancy levels were compared between patients who presented an AIMS score of ≥2 at endpoint and those with a score of zero, using the Mann-Whitney U test. RESULTS Estimated dopamine D2 receptor occupancy levels at trough were significantly higher in subjects who developed involuntary movements (N=23) than those who did not (N=195) (71.7±14.4% vs. 64.3±19.3%, p<0.05) while no significant difference was found in the estimated peak D2 receptor occupancy between them (75.4±8.7% vs. 72.1±9.9%, p=0.07). When the analyses were separately conducted for the three drugs, there were no significant differences in estimated peak or trough D2 occupancy although the values were consistently numerically higher among those developing involuntary movements. CONCLUSION Greater dopamine D2 receptor blockade with antipsychotics at trough might increase the risk of tardive involuntary movements although this finding needs to be replicated in larger trials.

Abstract
Tardive dyskinesia (TD) is a serious, often disabling, movement disorder that is caused by medications that block dopamine receptors (i.e., neuroleptics, anti-emetics). There is currently no standard treatment approach for physicians confronted with such patients. This may be the result of notions that TD is disappearing because of the switch to second-generation antipsychotic agents and that it is largely reversible. In this article we demonstrate that second-generation antipsychotics do, indeed, cause TD and, in fact, the frequency is likely higher than expected because of growing off-label uses and a tripling of prescriptions written in the last 10 years. In addition, studies demonstrate that TD actually remits in only a minority of patients when these drugs are withdrawn. Furthermore, neuroleptic agents are often utilized to treat TD, despite prolonged exposure being a risk factor for irreversibility. The outcome of these trends is a growing population afflicted with TD. We review non-neuroleptic agents that have shown positive results in small, early-phase, blinded trials, including tetrabenazine, amantadine, levetiracetam, piracetam, clonazepam, propranolol, vitamin B6, and Ginkgo biloba. Other options, such as botulinum toxin and deep brain stimulation, will also be discussed, and a suggested treatment algorithm is provided. While these agents are reasonable treatment options at this time there is a need, with a concerted effort between neurology and psychiatry, for full-scale drug development, including multicenter, randomized, blinded trials to confirm the effectiveness of the agents that were positive in phase 2 trials and the development of newer ones.

Abstract
Tardive dyskinesia (TD) in schizophrenia patients treated with antipsychotic medications and L-dopa induced dyskinesia (LID) among Parkinson's disease (PD) affected individuals share similar clinical features. Both conditions are induced by chronic exposure to drugs that target dopaminergic receptors (antagonists in TD and agonists in LID) and cause pulsatile and nonphysiological stimulation of these receptors. We hypothesized that the two motor adverse effects partially share genetic risk factors such that certain genetic variants exert a pleiotropic effect, influencing susceptibility to TD as well as to LID. In this pilot study, we focused on 21 TD-associated SNPs, previously reported in TD genome-wide association studies or in candidate gene studies. By applying logistic regression and controlling for relevant clinical risk factors, we studied the association of the SNPs with LID vulnerability in two independent pharmacogenetic samples. We included a Jewish Israeli sample of 203 PD patients treated with L-dopa for a minimum of 3 years and evaluated the existence or absence of LID (LID+ = 128; LID- = 75). An Italian sample was composed of early LID developers (within the first 3 years of treatment, N = 187) contrasted with non-early LID developers (after 7 years or more of treatment, N = 203). None of the studied SNPs were significantly associated with LID susceptibility in the two samples. Therefore, we were unable to obtain proof of concept for our initial hypothesis of an overlapping contribution of genetic risk factors to TD and LID. Further studies in larger samples are required to reach definitive conclusions.

Abstract
Dopamine D(3) receptors have a pre- and postsynaptic localization in brain stem nuclei, limbic parts of the striatum, and cortex. Their widespread influence on dopamine release, on dopaminergic function, and on several other neurotransmitters makes them attractive targets for therapeutic intervention. The signaling pathways of D(3) receptors are distinct from those of other members of the D(2)-like receptor family. There is increasing evidence that D(3) receptors can form heteromers with dopamine D(1), D(2), and probably other G-protein-coupled receptors. The functional consequences remain to be characterized in more detail but might open new interesting pharmacological insight and opportunities. In terms of behavioral function, D(3) receptors are involved in cognitive, social, and motor functions, as well as in filtering and sensitization processes. Although the role of D(3) receptor blockade for alleviating positive symptoms is still unsettled, selective D(3) receptor antagonism has therapeutic features for schizophrenia and beyond as demonstrated by several animal models: improved cognitive function, emotional processing, executive function, flexibility, and social behavior. D(3) receptor antagonism seems to contribute to atypicality of clinically used antipsychotics by reducing extrapyramidal motor symptoms; has no direct influence on prolactin release; and does not cause anhedonia, weight gain, or metabolic dysfunctions. Unfortunately, clinical data with new, selective D(3) antagonists are still incomplete; their cognitive effects have only been communicated in part. In vitro, virtually all clinically used antipsychotics are not D(2)-selective but also have affinity for D(3) receptors. The exact D(3) receptor occupancies achieved in patients, particularly in cortical areas, are largely unknown, mainly because only nonselective or agonist PET tracers are currently available. It is unlikely that a degree of D(3) receptor antagonism optimal for antipsychotic and cognitive function can be achieved with existing antipsychotics. Therefore, selective D(3) antagonism represents a promising mechanism still to be fully exploited for the treatment of schizophrenia, cognitive deficits in schizophrenia, and comorbid conditions such as substance abuse.

Abstract
RATIONALE Pharmacogenetic studies on antipsychotic-induced movement disorders (MD) in schizophrenia so far have focused mainly on tardive dyskinesia. Only a few examined the more acute antipsychotic-induced MD such as parkinsonism and akathisia. Notably, all MD relate to deregulation of the dopamine system. OBJECTIVE This study aimed to replicate previously reported associations in candidate genes for acute and tardive antipsychotic-induced MD in a young Caucasian sample. METHODS In 402 patients (median age 26 years), a total of 13 polymorphisms were genotyped in eight dopamine-related candidate genes selected a priori from the literature (regarding dopamine and serotonin receptors, dopamine degradation, and free radicals scavenging enzymes pathways). RESULTS Patients with MD used on average a higher haloperidol dose equivalent when compared to those without MD. The prevalence of MD was high and did not differ between first- and second-generation antipsychotics. Significant associations were found between (a) the TaqI_D polymorphism and akathisia (OR = 2.3, p = 0.001 for each extra C-allele) and (b) the -141C polymorphism and tardive dyskinesia (OR = 0.20, p = 0.001 for each extra Del allele). The other polymorphisms were not significantly associated with an MD. CONCLUSIONS Two associations were found between genetic variation TaqI_D and the -141C polymorphisms in the DRD2 gene and antipsychotic-induced MD; one with acute akathisia and one with tardive dyskinesia. These were previously reported to be associated with tardive dyskinesia and acute parkinsonism, respectively. These results suggest that the contribution of these DRD2 gene variants in the vulnerability of antipsychotic-induced MD takes place in a more general or pleiotropic way.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to assess the frequency of persistent drug-induced movement disorders namely, tardive dyskinesia (TD), parkinsonism, akathisia and tardive dystonia in a representative sample of long-stay patients with chronic severe mental illness. METHOD Naturalistic study of 209, mainly white, antipsychotic-treated patients, mostly diagnosed with psychotic disorder. Of this group, the same rater examined 194 patients at least two times over a 4-year period, with a mean follow-up time of 1.1 years, with validated scales for TD, parkinsonism, akathisia, and tardive dystonia. RESULTS The frequencies of persistent movement disorders in the sample were 28.4% for TD, 56.2% for parkinsonism, 4.6% for akathisia and 5.7% for tardive dystonia. Two-thirds of the participants displayed at least one type of persistent movement disorder. CONCLUSIONS Persistent movement disorder continues to be the norm for long-stay patients with chronic mental illness and long-term antipsychotic treatment. Measures are required to remedy this situation.

Abstract
Tardive dyskinesia (TD) is a severe adverse effect of chronic antipsychotic drug treatment. In addition to clinical risk factors, TD susceptibility is influenced by genetic predisposition. Recently, Syu et al. (2010) reported a genome-wide association screening of TD in Japanese schizophrenia patients. The best result was association of single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) rs2445142 in the HSPG2 (heparan sulfate proteoglycan 2) gene with TD. In the present study, we report a replication study of the five top Japanese TD-associated SNPs in two Caucasian TD samples. Applying logistic regression and controlling for relevant clinical risk factors, we were able to replicate the association of HSPG2 SNP rs2445142 with TD in a prospective study sample of 179 Americans of European origin by performing a secondary analysis of the CATIE (Clinical Antipsychotic Trials of Intervention Effectiveness) genome-wide association study data set, and using a perfect proxy surrogate marker (rs878949; P = 0.039). An association of the 'G' risk allele of HSPG2 SNP rs2445142 with TD was also shown in a sample of Jewish Israeli schizophrenia patients (retrospective, cross-sectional design; P = 0.03). Although the associations were only nominally significant, the findings provide further support for the possible involvement of HSPG2 in susceptibility to TD.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To examine the rates of autism separately according to maternal immigrant status and ethnic origin in respect to the vitamin D insufficiency hypothesis. METHOD Articles were identified by electronic searches. Studies were selected when they analysed autism rates according to maternal immigrant status and/or ethnic origin using multivariate techniques. RESULTS This review gave further support to the association between maternal immigrant status and an increased risk of autism. The relationship with ethnic origin was more complex. Although the crude rates did not differ, multivariate analyses taking into account confounding factors found that black ethnicity was associated with an increased risk for autism. The risk was highly significant when considering the strict definition of autistic disorders as opposed to the large definition of other pervasive developmental disorders. The risk was also very significant for autism associated with mental retardation. CONCLUSION These results are consistent with the maternal vitamin D insufficiency hypothesis. Neurobiological studies are warranted to document the effect of maternal vitamin D insufficiency during pregnancy on the foetal brain and the window of vulnerability. This review stresses the importance of monitoring vitamin D levels in pregnant women, especially those who are immigrant, dark-skinned or veiled, and the urgency of randomized controlled trials.

Abstract
IMPORTANCE OF THE FIELD Antipsychotic drug is the mainstay of treatment for schizophrenia, and there are large inter-individual differences in clinical response and side effects. Pharmacogenetics provides a valuable tool to fulfill the promise of personalized medicine by tailoring treatment based on one's genetic markers. AREAS COVERED IN THIS REVIEW This article reviews the pharmacogenetic literature from early 1990s to 2010, focusing on two aspects of drug action: pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics. Genetic variants in the neurotransmitter receptors including dopamine and 5-HT and metabolic pathways of drugs including CYP2D6 and COMT were discussed in association with clinical drug response and side effects. WHAT THE READER WILL GAIN Readers are expected to learn the up-to-date evidence in pharmacogenetic research and to gain familiarity to the issues and challenges facing the field. TAKE HOME MESSAGE Pharmacogenetic research of antipsychotic drugs is both promising and challenging. There is consistent evidence that some genetic variants can affect clinical response and side effects. However, more studies that are designed specifically to test pharmacogenetic hypotheses are clearly needed to advance the field.

Abstract
The term movement disorder is used to describe a variety of abnormal movements, and may involve an excess or paucity of movement. Careful characterization of phenomenology is an essential component of diagnosis. Factors such as speed, amplitude, duration, distribution, rhythmicity, suppressibility and pattern of movement provide valuable information to guide the clinician in their assessment of the movement disorder. In this chapter, the clinical spectrum and phenomenology of dyskinesias will be reviewed.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Tardive dyskinesia (TD) has a pharmacogenetic component in which the interaction of antipsychotic exposure with individual genetic variation mediates risk. The glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF) signalling pathway has been associated with neuroprotective effects in central dopaminergic neurons and spinal motor neurons. Clinical trials have also investigated whether GDNF may ameliorate Parkinson's disease symptoms. METHODS We tested whether variants in the GDNF receptor alpha 2 (GFRA2) gene could play a role in TD susceptibility evaluating 16 variants in 172 Caucasian schizophrenia subjects. RESULTS We observed one significant allelic association (rs4739285, permuted p = 0.042) and two genotypic associations: rs4739285 under additive inheritance model and rs4739217 under dominant inheritance model (permuted p = 0.044). Moreover, carriers of the major alleles for both rs6587002 and rs4739217 presented significantly higher risk for TD (OR = 2.04, permuted p = 0.014), while subjects with the minor allele for rs4739217 and the major allele for rs6988470 were less likely to have TD (OR = 0.21, permuted p = 0.0007). DISCUSSION Haplotype results indicate that the minor allele of the rs4739217 is a risk factor for TD (permuted allelic p = 0.074). Age was also a risk factor for TD in our sample (p = 0.0001). Taken together, our findings suggest that GFRA2 genetic variants and age may play a role in TD susceptibility, but further work is required to confirm these findings.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Compare the risk for schizophrenia in immigrants to countries of recent and longstanding immigration. Compare prevalence and incidence rates in black subjects under different conditions. METHOD An electronic literature search was complemented by review articles and cross-references. Studies reporting standard diagnosis and incidence or prevalence rates were included. RESULTS Immigrants had an increased risk for schizophrenia in countries of longstanding immigration, but with lower risk ratios than in those of recent immigration. The risk was higher in black immigrants and the black population living in the United States. But incidence and prevalence rates in Africa and the Caribbean were similar to those of international studies. CONCLUSION Comparing the most recent generation of immigrants with descendants of previous ones may account for the lower risk ratios observed in countries of longstanding vs. recent immigration. Two neurobiological hypotheses are proposed to explain the epidemiological findings in black populations and in immigrants.
