Ni F, Liu X, Wang S. Impact of negative emotions and insomnia on sepsis: A mediation Mendelian randomization study. Comput Biol Med 2024; 180:108858. [PMID: 39067155 DOI: 10.1016/j.compbiomed.2024.108858] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/19/2024] [Revised: 06/05/2024] [Accepted: 07/06/2024] [Indexed: 07/30/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Negative emotions and insomnia (NEI) can lead to inflammation, which is a characteristic of sepsis. However, the interaction among NEI and sepsis has not yet been proven. Therefore, Mendelian mediation was used to explore this relationship in this study. METHODS The genetic correlation NEI and sepsis was assessed by via linkage disequilibrium scores (LDSC). A two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) study design was performed to examine the causal association between NEI and sepsis using the inverse variance weighted (IVW) method. The reliability of the results was estimated by weighted median and MR-Egger methods, but heterogeneity was evaluated via Radial and Cochran's Q tests. Biases in gene polymorphisms were checked by MR-Egger regression and MR-PRESSO. Mendelian mediation analyses were applied to quantify the intermediary effect and proportional contribution. RESULTS A genetic link between sepsis and depression was determined via LDSC analysis. The relationship between depression and sepsis was revealed through MR analysis [odds ratio (OR) = 1.21, 95 % confidence interval (CI) = 1.08-1.36, p = 1.07 × 10-3)]. The results were not influenced by heterogeneity or pleiotropy biases. Chitinase 3 Like 1 (CHI3L1) was a mediator with a mediation effect size of 0.12. The ratio of the intermediated effect to total effect was 10.31 %. CONCLUSION CHI3L1 is a key factor which mediates the interaction between NEI and sepsis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Sleep disturbance may exacerbate the risk of suicide among youth with depression, but whether this association is independent of psychopathology requires further study. METHODS This cross-sectional study included 576 youths (13-25 years old) recruited from January 2022 to May 2023. The patients were first divided into two groups by the presence of suicidal ideation according to the Columbia-Suicide Severity Scale (C-SSRS). Sleep quality was assessed by the Athens Insomnia Scale (AIS) and mental health with the Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (HAMD) and Hamilton Anxiety Rating Scale (HAMA). Logistic regression was conducted to analyze the association between sleep disturbance and suicidal ideation, adjusted for depressive symptoms severity. RESULTS The suicidal ideation group exhibited more severe sleep disturbances, anxiety symptoms, and depressive symptoms than the non-suicidal ideation group. Pearson correlation showed that sleep disturbance (AIS) was significantly correlated with the severity of anxiety symptoms, depressive symptoms, and suicidal ideation. Logistic regression analysis revealed that the AIS factor "daytime dysfunction" (β = 0.145; OR = 1.156, 95 % CI: 1.02, 1.309; p = 0.023) was significantly associated with suicidal ideation after adjusting for demographic characteristics and depressive symptoms severity. LIMITATIONS Due to the cross-sectional nature of the data, no causal inference can be made regarding the observed associations between sleep disturbance and suicidal ideation. CONCLUSION Sleep disturbance, particularly in the realm of daytime dysfunction, is associated with increased suicidal ideation among depressed youth. Clinicians need to assess and manage sleep disturbance in the context of suicidal ideation for young depression patients.

Abstract
Obesity and depression are interdependent pathological disorders with strong inflammatory effects commonly found worldwide. They determine the health status of the population and cause key problems in terms of morbidity and mortality. The role of gut microbiota and its composition in the treatment of obesity and psychological factors is increasingly emphasized. Published research suggests that prebiotic, probiotic, or symbiotic preparations can effectively intervene in obesity treatment and mood-dysregulation alleviation. Thus, this literature review aims to highlight the role of intestinal microbiota in treating depression and obesity. An additional purpose is to indicate probiotics, including psychobiotics and prebiotics, potentially beneficial in supporting the treatment of these two diseases.

Abstract
To determine whether the relationship between inflammatory factors and clinically significant depression symptoms is moderated by high exposure to adverse childhood experiences and current life stressors in a longitudinal community cohort of midlife women. Methods: Participants from the Penn Ovarian Ageing Study community cohort (age at baseline: M = 45.3 [SD = 3.8]) were included in analyses if they had a blood sample measuring basal inflammatory markers during at least one visit where depression symptom severity and current stressful life events were also assessed (N = 142, average number of visits per participant = 1.75 [SD = 0.92]). Approximately annually over the course of 16 years, participants self-reported depression symptom severity using the Centre for Epidemiologic Studies Depression (CESD) Scale, provided menstrual diaries to determine menopause stage, and contributed blood samples. Residual blood samples were assayed for interleukin (IL)-6, IL 1-beta (IL-1β), tumour necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α), and high sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP). Early life stress was quantified using the Adverse Childhood Experiences questionnaire (low [0-1 experience(s)] versus high [≥ 2 experiences]). Current stressful life events were assessed using a structured interview (low [0-1 events] vs. high [≥ 2 events]). Generalised estimating equation models were used to model associations with the outcome of interest-clinically significant depression symptoms (CESD ≥16)-and risk factors: inflammatory marker levels (log transformed), adverse childhood experiences group, and current life stressors group. Covariates included menopause stage, age at study baseline, body mass index, race, and smoking status. We found a significant three-way interaction between log hsCRP levels, adverse childhood experiences group, and current life stressors group on likelihood of experiencing clinically significant depression symptoms (OR: 4.33; 95% CI: 1.22, 15.46; p = 0.024) after adjusting for covariates. Solely for women with high adverse childhood experiences and with high current life stressors, higher hsCRP was associated with higher odds of having clinically significant depression symptoms (OR: 1.46; 95% CI 1.07, 1.98; p = 0.016). This three-way interaction was not significant for IL-6, IL-1β, or TNF-α. For women in midlife with exposure to high adverse childhood experiences and multiple current life stressors, elevated levels of CRP were uniquely associated with clinically significant depression symptoms. Early life adversity and current life stressors represent identifiable individual risk factors whose negative impact may be curtailed with inventions to target inflammation in midlife women.

J Affect Disord 2024; 350:110-117. [PMID: 38220096 DOI: 10.1016/j.jad.2024.01.031] [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: 08/15/2023] [Revised: 12/04/2023] [Accepted: 01/03/2024] [Indexed: 01/16/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Insomnia symptoms are often associated with increased levels of inflammatory biomarkers. However, such associations have not been adequately explored in adolescents with major depressive disorder (MDD). This study aimed to examine the associations between insomnia symptoms with inflammatory cytokines in adolescents with first-episode and recurrent MDD. METHODS From January to December 2021, this study included 164 adolescents with MDD and 76 healthy controls (HCs). The Center for Epidemiological Studies Depression Scale (CES-D) and the Insomnia Severity Index Scale (ISI) were used to assess depressive and insomnia symptoms, respectively. Also, plasma levels of interleukin (IL)-1β, IL-6, IL-8, IL-10, IL-17 A and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) were measured. RESULTS The prevalence of mild, moderate and severe insomnia in adolescents with MDD was 40.24 %, 36.59 % and 6.71 %, respectively. The patients had higher levels of IL-1β, IL-6 and TNF-α than HCs (all p < 0.05). ISI score was positively correlated with CES-D score and levels of IL-1β, IL-6 and TNF-α in first-episode patients but not in recurrent patients. A further multivariate stepwise linear regression analysis showed that ISI score was independently associated with CES-D score (beta = 0.523, t = 5.833, p < 0.001) and TNF-α levels (beta = 0.254, t = 2.832, p = 0.006). LIMITATIONS The cross-sectional design leads to failure to make causal inferences. CONCLUSION Insomnia symptoms are common in adolescents with MDD and associated with elevated levels of inflammatory cytokines in first-episode patients. The findings suggest that inflammatory cytokines may relate to the pathogenesis of insomnia symptoms in adolescents with MDD, but further longitudinal studies are needed to explore the causal association between insomnia symptoms and inflammatory cytokines in MDD.

Abstract
Sleep disorders have become increasingly prevalent, with many adults worldwide reporting sleep dissatisfaction. Major Depressive Disorder (MDD) and Bipolar Disorder (BD) are common conditions associated with disrupted sleep patterns such as insomnia and hypersomnolence. These sleep disorders significantly affect the progression, severity, treatment, and outcome of unipolar and bipolar depression. While there is evidence of a connection between sleep disorders and depression, it remains unclear if sleep features differ between MDD and BD. In light of this, this narrative review aims to: (1) summarize findings on common sleep disorders like insomnia and hypersomnolence, strongly linked to MDD and BD; (2) propose a novel psychometric approach to assess sleep in individuals with depressive disorders. Despite insomnia seems to be more influent in unipolar depression, while hypersomnolence in bipolar one, there is no common agreement. So, it is essential adopting a comprehensive psychometric protocol for try to fill this gap. Understanding the relationship between sleep and MDD and BD disorders are crucial for effective management and better quality of life for those affected.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Postpartum depression (PPD), a prevalent social-mental condition, impacts the mother and the newborn and several facets of their lives. It has been suggested that insomnia is related to both the occurrence and progression of PPD. However, because of lingering confounding and bias, it is impossible to determine the cause of this connection using observational analysis. In this study, we evaluate the causal importance of insomnia on postpartum depression using Mendelian randomization (MR). METHODS Utilizing summary data from genome-wide association studies (GWAS), a two-sample MR study was conducted. A GWAS dataset of IEU study of the United Kingdom Biobank phenotypes comprising 462,341 people of European heritage yielded 38 single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) for insomnia. The PPD data were provided by the FinnGen project and comprised 7604 cases and 59,601 controls. Inverse variance weighting (IVW) was utilized for the primary MR analysis, with weighted median and MR-Egger as sensitivity analyses. RESULTS As a result, we found that genetically predicted insomnia was positively associated with postpartum depression. The odds ratios (OR) of PPD were 1.849 (95% (confidence interval) CI 1.011-3.381; p = 0.046). CONCLUSION For the first time, the causative role of sleeplessness for postpartum depression has been extensively evaluated in the current two-sample MR investigation. Our findings show that insomnia and PPD are related causally.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Insomnia, inflammation, and depression are often co-occurring conditions. The mechanisms underlying these conditions remain unclear. MATERIALS AND METHODS We collected microarray datasets of depression and insomnia from GEO and analyzed them for differentially expressed genes (DEGs). We then overlapped the DEGs with a list of inflammatory response-related genes to identify genes associated with all three conditions. We next performed analyses of enrichment analyses, KEGG mapping, and protein-protein interaction to identify hub genes. Furthermore, we established a depression rat model with inflammation and insomnia to validate the potential genes. At last, a two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) study was conducted to confirm the association of identified target genes with depression outcomes. RESULTS We obtained 32 common DEGs associated with the depression, insomnia and inflammatory, and found that the PI3K-AKT signaling pathway might be involved in the inflammatory response in insomnia and depression. CREB1, CYBB, FYN, and CCR5 were identified as targets for the next validation. In model rats, the CCR5 and PI3K-AKT pathways were significantly up-regulated, while the model group exhibited significantly lower hippocampal p-CREB protein expression. The MR study suggested a potential causal relationship between CREB1 and the risk of depression (OR = 1.11, p = 0.013). LIMITATIONS The identified potential genes and pathways require further laboratory and clinical evidence verification. CONCLUSION We identified four potential inflammatory related-genes (CREB1, CYBB, FYN, and CCR5). CREB1 may be a potential inflammatory response-related biomarker and drug target for depression and insomnia, as validated by the followed rat model and MR study.

Abstract
Objective This study aimed to investigate symptom subgroups and associated influencing factors in patients with advanced cancer. Methods A cross-sectional study was conducted, involving 416 patients with advanced cancer. The study examined five symptoms: fatigue, pain, sleep impairment, anxiety, and depression. Latent Profile Analysis (LPA) was utilized to classify symptom subgroups. A multiple logistic regression analysis was conducted to explore factors associated with the identified symptom subgroups. Results The analysis revealed three distinct subgroups among the participants: "all low" (58.2%), characterized by normal symptoms except for moderate sleep quality; "all moderate" (35.1%), exhibiting normal symptoms except for poor sleep quality and fatigue; and "all high" (6.7%), experiencing normal pain, moderate depression, moderate anxiety, poor sleep quality, and fatigue. Malnutrition risk, cancer diagnosis, and cancer survivorship duration were found to be associated with a more severe symptom burden. Conclusions Patients in the "all high" subgroup faced an increased risk of malnutrition and a longer cancer survivorship duration. Additionally, patients in the "all moderate" subgroup were distinguished by having a breast cancer diagnosis. These findings have significant implications for allocating medical resources and implementing person-centered symptom management strategies.

STUDY OBJECTIVES Disturbances of sleep maintenance and sleep duration are common in older adults and associated with an increased risk for age-related mortality and morbidity. Converging evidence implicates inflammation as an underlying mechanism, especially in females. However, it is unknown what specific aspects of sleep disturbance impact inflammatory mechanisms in older adults. METHODS Using data from community-dwelling older adults who participated in the Sleep Health and Aging Research (SHARE) field study (n = 262, mean age 71.9 ± 8.0 years), we conducted a secondary analysis to examine whether disturbance of sleep maintenance (i.e. greater amount of wake time after sleep onset [WASO]) and sleep duration (i.e. shorter total sleep time [TST]) assessed by sleep diary and actigraphy are associated with greater activation of nuclear factor (NF)-κB and signal transducer and activator of transcription (STAT) family proteins STAT1, STAT3, and STAT5 in peripheral blood monocytic cells. In addition, moderation effects of sex were explored. RESULTS Data were available for sleep diary (n = 82), actigraphy (n = 74), and inflammatory signaling and transcriptional measures (n = 132). As assessed by sleep diary, greater amount of WASO (β = 0.39, p < 0.01), but not TST, was associated with higher levels of NF-κB. Whereas diary-assessed sleep measures were not associated with STAT family proteins, a moderation analysis revealed that greater diary-assessed WASO was associated with higher levels of STAT1 (p < 0.05), STAT3 (p < 0.05), and STAT5 (p < 0.01) in females, but not in males. Actigraphy-assessed sleep measures were not associated either with NF-κB or STAT activation. CONCLUSIONS In older adults, self-reported disturbance of sleep maintenance assessed by sleep diary was uniquely associated with higher levels of NF-κB, along with higher levels of STAT family proteins in females, but not in males. Our data suggest that improvingself-reported sleep maintenance might mitigate age-related increases in inflammatory signaling and transcriptional pathways, possibly more strongly in females, with the potential to reduce mortality risk in older adults.

Abstract
Studies in human and experimental animal models support a role of inflammation in the aetiology of depression, yet the precise role played by sleep disturbance (i.e., difficulties falling or maintaining sleep) is poorly understood. Consistent evidence from prospective epidemiological studies suggests sleep disturbance as a predictor of major depression episodes and depression recurrence. In parallel, up to 20% of individuals with sleep disturbance have low-grade peripheral inflammation (i.e., CRP>3 mg/l), and preliminary longitudinal evidence showed that sleep disturbance may even predict the levels of inflammation. Therefore, it is possible that sleep disturbance may increase inflammation, which in turn may contribute (i.e., mediate) to the onset - or worsening - of depression. Alternatively, sleep disturbance may serve as a vulnerability factor and increase the risk of developing depressive symptoms when facing an immune challenge. The aim of this review was to summarise the state of the science on the role of sleep disturbance in contributing to depression-related inflammation. A research agenda is also proposed to advance the study of sleep disturbance in the psychoneuroimmunology of depression.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Depressive symptoms, such as depressed mood, are common in older adults and associated with an increased risk for morbidity and mortality. Given the evidence that sleep disturbance and alterations in interferon (IFN)-γ biology are associated with depression risk, this study examines the separate and joint contributions of poor sleep maintenance and IFN-γ to depressed mood in older adults. METHODS Community-dwelling, non-depressed older adults (n = 36, 72.1 ± 6.8 years) underwent a night of polysomnography to assess sleep maintenance [i.e. wake time after sleep onset (WASO)]. The morning after polysomnography, plasma levels of IFN-γ were evaluated along with self-reported depressed mood throughout the day. Multivariate linear regression tested associations of WASO and IFN-γ with the severity of depressed mood. In addition, moderation and mediation models examined the role of IFN-γ for the relationship between WASO and depressed mood. RESULTS A greater amount of WASO (p < 0.05) and higher levels of IFN-γ (p < 0.01) were both associated with the severity of depressed mood. Moreover, IFN-γ moderated the relationship between WASO and depressed mood (p < 0.01), such that WASO was more strongly related to the depressed mood among those with higher IFN-γ, than among those with lower IFN-γ. However, IFN-γ did not mediate the relationship between WASO and depressed mood. CONCLUSION In this study of older adults, poor sleep maintenance and higher levels of IFN-γ were both related to depressed mood. Moreover, IFN-γ moderated the relationship between poor sleep maintenance and depressed mood. Together, these findings suggest that older adults with higher IFN-γ are at heightened risk for depressive symptoms following sleep disturbance.

Sleep and Healthy Aging Research on Depression (SHARE-D) randomized controlled trial: Protocol overview of an experimental model of depression with insomnia, inflammation, and affect mechanisms in older adults. Brain Behav Immun Health 2023; 28:100601. [PMID: 36879913 PMCID: PMC9984307 DOI: 10.1016/j.bbih.2023.100601] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/12/2023] [Revised: 01/31/2023] [Accepted: 02/02/2023] [Indexed: 02/05/2023] Open
Abstract
Depression, one of the most common diseases in older adults, carries significant risk for morbidity and mortality. Because of the burgeoning population of older adults, the enormous burden of late-life depression, and the limited efficacy of current antidepressants in older adults, biologically plausible models that translate into selective depression prevention strategies are needed. Insomnia predicts depression recurrence and is a modifiable target to prevent incident and recurrent depression in older adults. Yet, it is not known how insomnia gets converted into biological- and affective risk for depression, which is critical for identification of molecular targets for pharmacologic interventions, and for refinement of insomnia treatments that target affective responding to improve efficacy. Sleep disturbance activates inflammatory signaling and primes immune responses to subsequent inflammatory challenge. In turn, inflammatory challenge induces depressive symptoms, which correlate with activation of brain regions implicated in depression. This study hypothesizes that insomnia serves as a vulnerability factor for inflammation-related depression; older adults with insomnia will show heightened inflammatory- and affective responding to inflammatory challenge as compared to those without insomnia. To test this hypothesis, this protocol paper describes a placebo-controlled, randomized, double-blind study of low dose endotoxin in older adults (n = 160; 60-80 y) with insomnia vs. comparison controls without insomnia. The aims of this study are to examine differences in depressive symptoms, measures of negative affective responding, and measures of positive affective responding as a function of insomnia and inflammatory challenge. If the hypotheses are confirmed, older adults with two "hits", insomnia and inflammatory activation, would represent a high risk group to be prioritized for monitoring and for depression prevention efforts using treatments that target insomnia or inflammation. Moreover, this study will inform the development of mechanism-based treatments that target affect responses in addition to sleep behaviors, and which might also be coupled with efforts to reduce inflammation to optimize efficacy of depression prevention.

Abstract
Psoriasis may affect patients' sleep. In order to examine this relationship, this study evaluated non-anxious and non-depressive patients with moderate to severe psoriasis before and after 6 months of systemic treatment. A prospective case-control study with 46 consecutive patients (mean age 51.1 ± 12.8 years, 18 women) and 24 age-, sex- and body mass index-matched controls (mean age 46.5 ± 15.4 years, 12 women) was conducted to assess sleep using both sleep questionnaires and actigraphy. Of psoriatic patients, 91.3% were poor sleepers, and 65.2% of the psoriatic patients presented insomnia symptoms, compared with 54.2% and 33.3% of the control group (p < 0.001, p = 0.02, respectively). Actigraphy showed that Total Sleep Time was shorter in patients, while 82.6% of the psoriatic patients had poor Sleep Efficiency, compared with controls (p = 0.004, p = 0.03, respectively). Patients' quality of life was associated with sleep disturbance (p < 0.001), and pruritus was negatively correlated with sleep duration (p < 0.001). After 6 months of treatment, patients' sleep pattern, according to actigraphy, had not changed significantly; however, they had insomnia for no longer than the control group (p = 0.65), whereas the above-mentioned correlations were non-significant after treatment. Psoriatic insomnia was improved after 6 months of systemic treatment. Actigraphy may be used as an objective tool to evaluate sleep in these patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In the period of the global pandemic, psychophysical problems induced by the fear of COVID-19 among college students deserve attention since the dormitory environment in college greatly increases the possibility of COVID-19 infection. METHODS A hypothesized mediated moderation model was to be verified using a cross-sectional study among 2453 college students. Fear of COVID-19, insomnia, hope, and depression were assessed by using the relevant scales. RESULTS (1) The fear of COVID-19 was positively correlated to depression (β = 0.365, t = 5.553, 95% CI = [0.236, 0.494]); (2) hope moderated the influence of the fear of COVID-19 on depression (β = -0.093, t = -4.066, 95% CI = [-0.137, -0.048]), as well as on insomnia (β = -0.095, t = -4.841, 95% CI = [-0.133, -0.056]); and (3) the mediated moderation model with hope as the moderator and insomnia as the full mediating variable between fear of COVID-19 and depression was verified (β = -0.060, 95% CI = [-0.093, -0.028]). CONCLUSIONS The findings suggest that hope is a vital mechanism to explain the relationship between the fear of COVID-19 and depression in early adulthood. In practical application, mental health practitioners should focus on boosting hope and alleviating insomnia when addressing COVID-19-related depression issues among college students.

Abstract
In Posttraumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), fear and anxiety become dysregulated following psychologically traumatic events. Regulation of fear and anxiety involves both high-level cognitive processes such as cognitive reattribution and low-level, partially automatic memory processes such as fear extinction, safety learning and habituation. These latter processes are believed to be deficient in PTSD. While insomnia and nightmares are characteristic symptoms of existing PTSD, abundant recent evidence suggests that sleep disruption prior to and acute sleep disturbance following traumatic events both can predispose an individual to develop PTSD. Sleep promotes consolidation in multiple memory systems and is believed to also do so for low-level emotion-regulatory memory processes. Consequently sleep disruption may contribute to the etiology of PTSD by interfering with consolidation in low-level emotion-regulatory memory systems. During the first weeks following a traumatic event, when in the course of everyday life resilient individuals begin to acquire and consolidate these low-level emotion-regulatory memories, those who will develop PTSD symptoms may fail to do so. This deficit may, in part, result from alterations of sleep that interfere with their consolidation, such as REM fragmentation, that have also been found to presage later PTSD symptoms. Here, sleep disruption in PTSD as well as fear extinction, safety learning and habituation and their known alterations in PTSD are first briefly reviewed. Then neural processes that occur during the early post-trauma period that might impede low-level emotion regulatory processes through alterations of sleep quality and physiology will be considered. Lastly, recent neuroimaging evidence from a fear conditioning and extinction paradigm in patient groups and their controls will be considered along with one possible neural process that may contribute to a vulnerability to PTSD following trauma.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Sleep is a complex, reversible process that is responsible for the modulation of various physiological mechanisms. COVID-19-related sleep disorders are affecting different populations with a heterogenous prevalence, yet high rates among infected patients are frequently reported. The aim of the study is to assess the prevalence of insomnia in the early post-COVID-19 recovery period and explore the differences in the results acquired by the Athens Insomnia Scale (AIS) by gender and selected infection severity parameters. METHODS The data presented in the paper come from a prospective, observational study on COVID-19 complications (SILCOV-19) consisting of 200 COVID-19 patients. The AIS was used for the quantitative measurement of insomnia symptoms based on ICD-10 criteria. RESULTS 32% (n = 64) of all patients in the study group obtained results indicating sleep disturbances (>5 points on the scale), while 21.5% (n = 43) obtained results indicating insomnia (>10 points on the scale). The analysis of the results obtained by all patients in the AIS showed a significant correlation with the duration of symptoms (Spearman's rank-order: R = 0.18; p < 0.05), but not with the number of days spent in the hospital or age. Women achieved a higher score in overall AIS, as well as in questions assessing total sleep time, well-being the next day, physical and mental fitness the next day, and sleepiness during the day (p < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS the prevalence of insomnia in the early post-COVID-19 recovery period is high.

Abstract
Background During follow-up, patients severely affected by coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) requiring invasive mechanical ventilation (IMV), show symptoms of Post-Intensive Care Syndrome (PICS) such as cognitive impairment, psychological disability, and neuromuscular deconditioning. In COVID-19 pandemic, it is a priority to develop multidisciplinary post-acute care services to address the long-term multisystemic impact of COVID-19. Research question Which are the most relevant multisystemic sequelae in severe post-COVID-19 patients? Study design and methods Observational chart review study that included adult patients discharged from a referral hospital for respiratory diseases in Mexico after recovering from severe COVID-19 disease from December 23, 2020, to April 24, 2021. Data were collected from 280 of 612 potentially eligible patients to evaluate persistent symptoms and compare sequelae in patients who required intubation, using a standardized questionnaire of symptoms, in addition to findings reported during the face-to-face health assessment. Univariable and multivariate analyses were performed for the association among the requirement of IMV and the long-term persistence of symptoms. Results 280 patients were included. The median age was 55 (range, 19 to 86) years, and 152 (54.3%) were men. The mean length of hospital stay was 19 (SD, 14.1) days. During hospitalization 168 (60%) participants received IMV. A large proportion of these patients reported fatigue (38.7%), paresthesia (35.1%), dyspnea (32.7%) and headache (28%); meanwhile only 3 (1.8%) of them were asymptomatic. Patients who required intubation were more likely to have neuropsychiatric (67.3% vs 55.4%; OR, 1.79 [95% CI, 1.08 to 2.97]) and musculoskeletal involvement (38.7% vs. 25.9%; OR, 1.92 [95% CI, 1.12 to 3.27]), adjusted for age,sex and hospitalization time. Interpretation The proportion of patients requiring intubation was 60%, reporting persistent symptoms in 98% of them. Neuropsychiatric and musculoskeletal symptoms were the most predominant symptoms in these patients, with a significant difference. Post-COVID-19 syndrome is a frequent problem in patients who required IVM. Physicians in ICU and in care of COVID-19 patients should be aware of this syndrome in order to avoid more complications.

Abstract
The present paper aims at reviewing and commenting on the relationships between sleep and circadian phasing alterations and neurodegenerative/neuroprogressive processes in mood disorder. We carried out a systematic review, according to Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines, in PubMed, PsycINFO, and Embase electronic databases for literature related to mood disorders, sleep disturbances, and neurodegenerative/neuroprogressive processes in relation to (1) neuroinflammation, (2) activation of the stress system, (3) oxidative stress, (4) accumulation of neurotoxic proteins, and (5) neuroprotection deficit. Seventy articles were collectively selected and analyzed. Experimental and clinical studies revealed that insomnia, conditions of sleep loss, and altered circadian sleep may favor neurodegeneration and neuroprogression in mood disorders. These sleep disturbances may induce a state of chronic inflammation by enhancing neuroinflammation, both directly and indirectly, via microglia and astrocytes activation. They may act as neurobiological stressors that by over-activating the stress system may negatively influence neural plasticity causing neuronal damage. In addition, sleep disturbances may favor the accumulation of neurotoxic proteins, favor oxidative stress, and a deficit in neuroprotection hence contributing to neurodegeneration and neuroprogression. Targeting sleep disturbances in the clinical practice may hold a neuroprotective value for mood disorders.

Front Psychiatry 2022; 13:820427. [PMID: 35599763 PMCID: PMC9122027 DOI: 10.3389/fpsyt.2022.820427] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/08/2021] [Accepted: 03/28/2022] [Indexed: 11/13/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Late-life depression is a complex phenomenon that cannot be fully understood simply as depression occurring in older adults, prompting researchers to suggest that it represents a component of geriatric syndrome. Given the inherent complexity and multifactorial nature of geriatric syndrome, understanding the interactions between the comorbid conditions involved is important for establishing appropriate preventive strategies. While sleep disturbance and malnutrition are common manifestations of geriatric syndrome, they have also been regarded as indicators of late-life depression. However, the differential effects of sleep disturbance and malnutrition on late-life depression and their interrelationships remain unclear. OBJECTIVE The objective of this study was to examine the effects of sleep disturbance and malnutrition on depression and the interactions between them among community-dwelling older adults. METHODS Sleep disturbance and malnutrition in 1,029 community-dwelling older adults from Suwon Geriatric Mental Health Center were assessed using the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) and Mini Nutritional Assessment (MNA), respectively. The Korean version of the Short Form of the Geriatric Depression Scale (SGDS-K) was used to evaluate depressive symptoms. Sociodemographic parameters were recorded. A multiple linear regression analysis was conducted to examine the effects of sleep and nutrition on depressive symptoms after adjusting for covariates. The effect size and conditional effects of sleep disturbance and malnutrition on late-life depression were assessed using Cohen's f2 values and the Johnson-Neyman technique, respectively. RESULTS After possible confounders were adjusted, the SGDS-K score was positively associated with the PSQI score (standardized beta = 0.166, P < 0.001) and negatively associated with the MNA score (standardized beta = -0.480, P < 0.001). The local effect size of the associations was small for PSQI and medium for MNA. A significant interaction was observed between the PSQI and MNA scores. The result of the Johnson-Neyman technique indicated that the influence of PSQI on SGDS-K became weaker and insignificant as nutritional status worsened. However, the association between the MNA and SGDS-K scores was significant regardless of PSQI. CONCLUSION Both sleep disturbance and malnutrition were significantly associated with late-life depression, although malnutrition may be more critically associated with depression than sleep disturbance in community-dwelling older adults.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Since insomnia and disturbed sleep may affect neuroplasticity, we aimed at reviewing their potential role as markers of disrupted neuroplasticity involved in mood disorders. METHOD We performed a systematic review, according to PRIMA, on PubMed, PsycINFO and Embase electronic databases for literature regarding mood disorders, insomnia, sleep loss/deprivation in relation to different pathways involved in the impairment of neuroplasticity in mood disorders such as 1] alterations in neurodevelopment 2] activation of the stress system 3] neuroinflammation 4] neurodegeneration/neuroprogression, 4] deficit in neuroprotection. RESULTS Sixty-five articles were analyzed and a narrative/ theoretical review was conducted. Studies showed that insomnia, sleep loss and sleep deprivation might impair brain plasticity of those areas involved in mood regulation throughout different pathways. Insomnia and disrupted sleep may act as neurobiological stressors that by over-activating the stress and inflammatory systems may affect neural plasticity causing neuronal damage. In addition, disturbed sleep may favor a deficit in neuroprotection hence contributing to impaired neuroplasticity. CONCLUSIONS Insomnia and disturbed sleep may play a role as markers of alteration in brain plasticity in mood disorders. Assessing and targeting insomnia in the clinical practice may potentially play a neuroprotective role, contributing to "repairing" alterations in neuroplasticity or to the functional recovery of those areas involved in mood and emotion regulation.

Sleep problems predict next-day suicidal thinking among adolescents: A multimodal real-time monitoring study following discharge from acute psychiatric care. Dev Psychopathol 2021.

Abstract
AbstractSuicidal thoughts and behaviors (STBs) are major public health concerns among adolescents, and research is needed to identify how risk is conferred over the short term (hours and days). Sleep problems may be associated with elevated risk for STBs, but less is known about this link in youth over short time periods. The current study utilized a multimodal real-time monitoring approach to examine the association between sleep problems (via daily sleep diary and actigraphy) and next-day suicidal thinking in 48 adolescents with a history of STBs during the month following discharge from acute psychiatric care. Results indicated that specific indices of sleep problems assessed via sleep diary (i.e., greater sleep onset latency, nightmares, ruminative thoughts before sleep) predicted next-day suicidal thinking. These effects were significant even when daily sadness and baseline depression were included in the models. Moreover, several associations between daily-level sleep problems and next-day suicidal thinking were moderated by person-level measures of the construct. In contrast, sleep indices assessed objectively (via actigraphy) were either not related to suicidal thinking or were related in the opposite direction from hypothesized. Together, these findings provide some support for sleep problems as a short-term risk factor for suicidal thinking in high-risk adolescents.

Abstract
Inflammation has been shown to predict depression, but sensitivity to inflammation varies across individuals. Experimental studies administering potent pro-inflammatory agents have begun to characterize this sensitivity. However, risk factors for inflammation-associated depression in naturalistic contexts have not been determined. The present study examined key psychological and behavioral risk factors (state anxiety, perceived stress, negative affect, disturbed sleep, and childhood adversity) as potential moderators of the relationship between inflammation and depressive symptoms in a prospective longitudinal study of breast cancer survivors. Women with early stage breast cancer were recruited after completing primary cancer treatment (nfinal = 161). Depressive symptoms, inflammatory markers (CRP, IL-6, and sTNF-RII), and key risk factors were assessed post treatment (T1), at 6 and 12-month follow-ups (T2 and T3), and during a final follow-up (TF) 3-6 years after T1; childhood adversity was measured only at T3. Inflammatory markers were combined into a single inflammatory index prior to analyses. Women who reported higher levels of state anxiety, perceived stress, negative affect, and/or sleep disturbance at T1 (post-treatment) exhibited higher depressive symptoms at times when inflammation was higher than typical (interaction βs ranged from .06 to .08; all ps < .014). Results demonstrate the relevance of these risk factors for understanding inflammation-associated depression in a clinical context and could inform targeted strategies for prevention and treatment among at-risk populations.

Abstract
Objective: To identify the potential biomarkers for predicting depression in diabetes mellitus using support vector machine to analyze routine biochemical tests and vital signs between two groups: subjects with both diabetes mellitus and depression, and subjects with diabetes mellitus alone. Methods: Electronic medical records upon admission and biochemical tests and vital signs of 135 patients with both diabetes mellitus and depression and 187 patients with diabetes mellitus alone were identified for this retrospective study. After matching on factors of age and sex, the two groups (n = 72 for each group) were classified by the recursive feature elimination-based support vector machine, of which, the training data, validation data, and testing data were split for ranking the parameters, determine the optimal parameters, and assess classification performance. The biomarkers were identified by 10-fold cross validation. Results: The experimental results identified 8 predictive biomarkers with classification accuracy of 78%. The 8 biomarkers are magnesium, cholesterol, AST/ALT, percentage of monocytes, bilirubin indirect, triglyceride, lactic dehydrogenase, and diastolic blood pressure. Receiver operating characteristic curve analysis was also adopted with area under the curve being 0.72. Conclusions: Some biochemical parameters may be potential biomarkers to predict depression among the subjects with diabetes mellitus.

Abstract
Spatial memory is a brain function involved in multiple behaviors such as planning a route or recalling an object's location. The formation of spatial memory relies on the homeostasis of various biological systems, including healthy sleep and a well-functioning immune system. While sleep is thought to promote the stabilization and storage of spatial memories, considerable evidence shows that the immune system modulates neuronal processes underlying spatial memory such as hippocampal neuroplasticity, long-term potentiation, and neurogenesis. Conversely, when sleep is disturbed and/or states of heightened immune activation occur, hippocampal regulatory pathways are altered, which - on a behavioral level - may result in spatial memory impairments. In this Brief Review, I summarize how sleep and the immune system contribute to spatial memory processes. In addition, I present emerging evidence suggesting that sleep disturbance and inflammation might jointly impair spatial memory. Finally, potentials of integrated strategies that target sleep disturbance and inflammation to possibly mitigate risk for spatial memory impairment are discussed.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE We investigated the prevalence and associated factors of insomnia disorder among survivors of coronavirus disease of 2019 (COVID-19). METHODS This population-based cohort study used data from the National Health Insurance Service COVID-19 cohort database from January 1 to June 4, 2020. COVID-19 patients were defined as individuals whose test confirmed that they were infected, regardless of the severity, and survivors were defined as individuals who recovered from the infection. RESULTS A total of 299,968 individuals were included in the final analysis, and 6,934 were considered as COVID-19 survivors, while the control group comprised 292,764 individuals. In the multivariable model after covariate adjustment, COVID-19 survivors had a 3.33-fold higher prevalence of insomnia disorder than the control group (odds ratio [OR]: 3.33, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 2.98-3.73; p<0.001). In the sensitivity analysis, the COVID-19 survivors with no specific treatment and the survivors with specific treatment were associated with a 3.16-fold (OR: 3.16, 95% CI: 2.77-3.59; p<0.001) and 3.89-fold (OR: 3.89, 95% CI: 3.17-4.78; p<0.001) higher prevalence of insomnia disorder than the control group. CONCLUSION In South Korea, 5.4% of COVID-19 survivors were diagnosed with insomnia disorder at 6 months follow-up. Thus, insomnia disorder is a public health issue for COVID-19 survivors.

Abstract
PURPOSE Insomnia and obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) are among the most prevalent sleep disorders and frequently co-occur, defining the sleep apnea-insomnia syndrome. However, data exploring associations between insomnia and lifestyle habits in patients with OSA are lacking. Therefore, the aim of the present study was to investigate potential associations between insomnia presence and individual lifestyle parameters in patients with mild/moderate-to-severe OSA evaluated by attended polysomnography. METHODS These are secondary analyses, using data from a cross-sectional study among 269 Greek patients with OSA. Clinical, anthropometric, socioeconomic, and lifestyle data were collected for all participants. Insomnia presence was evaluated through the validated psychometric instrument "Athens Insomnia Scale" (AIS). Adherence to the Mediterranean diet was estimated with the MedDietScale index and physical activity habits were assessed through a validated questionnaire. Backward stepwise multiple logistic regression analysis was used to estimate the association between lifestyle habits (i.e., adherence to the Mediterranean diet and physical activity) and the likelihood of having insomnia, while adjusting for potential confounders. RESULTS Of 269 patients newly diagnosed with OSA (aged 21-70 years; 73% men), 146 (54%) were categorized as having insomnia. In multivariable models, higher adherence to the Mediterranean diet and engagement in physical activity for ≥ 30 min/day were both associated with a lower likelihood of having insomnia (odds ratio (95% confidence intervals): 0.40 (0.18-0.91) and 0.49 (0.28-0.86), respectively). CONCLUSIONS Results add to the limited data on the role of lifestyle in insomnia and should be further explored both in epidemiological and clinical studies.

Abstract
RATIONALE Recently, the effects of ketamine on the circadian rhythm have suggested that ketamine's rapid antidepressant effects are associated with and without sleep disturbance improvement. OBJECTIVES Here, we evaluated the antidepressant efficacy of repeated ketamine infusions in patients with sleep disturbances. METHODS This study included 127 patients with major depressive disorder or bipolar disorder who received ketamine treatments during a 12-day period. Sleep quality was assessed by the 17-item Hamilton Depression Rating Scale sleep disturbance factor (SDF) (items 4, 5 and 6). Serum brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) was measured at baseline, day 13 and day 26. This study was a post-hoc analysis. RESULTS Significant differences were found in the HAMD-17 score at 13 post-infusion time points compared to baseline, as well as the scores in SDF score at each of the 7 post-infusion (4 h after each infusion excluded) time points among all patients. Logistic regression and linear correlation analyses revealed that a greater reduction in the SDF after 24 h of the first ketamine infusion resulted in a better antidepressant effect in the last two follow-up visits. Moreover, BDNF levels were significantly higher in sleep responders than in non-responders. CONCLUSIONS In the 127 patients, six ketamine infusions induced better therapeutic effects in sleep responders than in sleep non-responders and patients without sleep disturbances. The sleep response after repeated ketamine infusions was positively associated with high serum BDNF levels. Early sleep disturbance improvement (as early as 24 h after the first ketamine injection) may predict the antidepressant effect of repeated-dose ketamine.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Postpartum depression (PPD) has received increasing attention due to its harmful impacts and high incidence. PPD is affected by physiological and psychological factors, but the conclusions are not uniform at present, so this study explored the risk factors of postpartum depressive symptoms (PPDS) in Chinese population. METHODS A total of 397 women attending the obstetric department of the First Affiliated Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University participated in the questionnaire survey, mainly through a cross sectional study. At 6 weeks postpartum, the Edinburgh Postpartum Depression Scale (EPDS) and Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) were used to assess PPDS and sleep quality, respectively. RESULTS The incidence of probable PPDS in our study population was 14.6% at 6 weeks postpartum. Women with blood group A had an almost 3-fold greater risk of PPDS than those with blood group B (OR [95% CI], 2.99 [1.43-6.28], p = 0.004). After adjusting for potential confounding variables, the blood group A phenotype was significantly more prevalent in women with PPDS compared to blood group B (OR [95% CI], 2.65 [1.23-5.70], p = 0.01). CONCLUSIONS Compared to women with blood groups B, AB or O, women with blood group A had high odds of PPDS. If this result can be demonstrated and replicated in other populations, blood group A may be a useful predictor of risk for PPDS in Chinese postpartum women.

Abstract
The current review provides a quantitative synthesis of the empirical literature on sleep disturbance as a risk factor for suicidal thoughts and behaviors (STBs). A systematic search of PsycINFO, MEDLINE, and the references of prior reviews resulted in 41 eligible studies included in this meta-analysis. Sleep disturbance, including insomnia, prospectively predicted STBs, yielding small-to-medium to medium effect sizes for these associations. Complicating interpretation of these findings however, is that few studies of suicidal ideation and suicide attempts, as well as none of suicide deaths, assessed short-term risk (i.e., employed follow-up assessments of under a month). Such studies are needed to evaluate current conceptualizations of sleep dysregulation as being involved in acute risk for suicidal behavior. This want of short-term risk studies also suggests that current clinical recommendations to monitor sleep as a potential warning sign of suicide risk has a relatively modest empirical basis, being largely driven by cross-sectional or retrospective research. The current review ends with recommendations for generating future research on short-term risk and greater differentiation between acute and chronic aspects of sleep disturbance, and by providing a model of how sleep disturbance may confer risk for STBs through neuroinflammatory and stress processes and associated impairments in executive control.

Abstract
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the most common type of dementia and a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by memory deficits especially forgetting recent information, recall ability impairment, and loss of time tracking, problem-solving, language, and recognition difficulties. AD is also a globally important health issue but despite all scientific efforts, the treatment of AD is still a challenge. Sleep has important roles in learning and memory consolidation. Studies have shown that sleep deprivation (SD) and insomnia are associated with the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease and may have an impact on the symptoms and development. Thus, sleep disorders have decisive effects on AD; this association deserves more attention in research, diagnostics, and treatment, and knowing this relation also can help to prevent AD through screening and proper management of sleep disorders. This study aimed to show the potential role of SD and insomnia in the pathogenesis and progression of AD.

Sleep, inflammation, and perception of sad facial emotion: A laboratory-based study in older adults. Brain Behav Immun 2020; 89:159-167. [PMID: 32531429 DOI: 10.1016/j.bbi.2020.06.011] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/20/2020] [Revised: 06/06/2020] [Accepted: 06/06/2020] [Indexed: 12/11/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Facial emotion perception (FEP) is pivotal for discriminating salient emotional information. Accumulating data indicate that FEP responses, particularly to sad emotional stimuli, are impaired in depression. This study tests whether sleep disturbance and inflammation, two risk factors for depression, contribute to impaired FEP to sad emotional stimuli. METHODS In older adults (n = 40, 71.7 ± 6.8y, 56.4% female), disturbance of sleep maintenance (i.e., wake time after sleep onset [WASO]) was evaluated by polysomnography. In the morning, plasma concentrations of two markers of systemic inflammation were evaluated (i.e., interleukin [IL]-6, tumor necrosis factor [TNF]-α), followed by two FEP tasks, which assessed delays in emotion recognition (ER) and ratings of perceived emotion intensity (EI) in response to sad facial emotional stimuli, with exploration of FEP responses to happiness and anger. Linear regression models tested whether WASO, IL-6, and TNF-α would be associated with impaired FEP to sad emotional stimuli. In addition, moderation tests examined whether inflammation would moderate the link between sleep disturbance and impaired FEP to sad emotional stimuli. RESULTS Longer WASO predicted longer ER delays (p < 0.05) and lower EI ratings in response to sad faces (p < 0.01). Further, higher TNF-α (p < 0.05) but not IL-6 predicted longer ER delays for sad faces, whereas higher IL-6 (p < 0.01) but not TNF-α predicted lower EI ratings for sad faces. Finally, TNF-α moderated the relationship between longer WASO and longer ER delays to sad faces (p < 0.001), while IL-6 moderated the relationship between longer WASO and lower EI ratings to sad faces (p < 0.01). Neither sleep nor inflammatory measures were associated with FEP responses to happiness or anger. CONCLUSION In older adults, disturbance of sleep maintenance is associated with impaired FEP to sad emotion, a relationship that appears to be moderated by inflammation. These data indicate that sleep disturbance and inflammation converge and contribute to impaired FEP with implications for risk for late-life depression.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic is an unprecedented traumatic event influencing the healthcare, economic, and social welfare systems worldwide. In order to slow the infection rates, lockdown has been implemented almost everywhere. Italy, one of the countries most severely affected, entered the "lockdown" on March 8, 2020. METHODS The COvid Mental hEalth Trial (COMET) network includes 10 Italian university sites and the National Institute of Health. The whole study has three different phases. The first phase includes an online survey conducted between March and May 2020 in the Italian population. Recruitment took place through email invitation letters, social media, mailing lists of universities, national medical associations, and associations of stakeholders (e.g., associations of users/carers). In order to evaluate the impact of lockdown on depressive, anxiety and stress symptoms, multivariate linear regression models were performed, weighted for the propensity score. RESULTS The final sample consisted of 20,720 participants. Among them, 12.4% of respondents (N = 2,555) reported severe or extremely severe levels of depressive symptoms, 17.6% (N = 3,627) of anxiety symptoms and 41.6% (N = 8,619) reported to feel at least moderately stressed by the situation at the DASS-21.According to the multivariate regression models, the depressive, anxiety and stress symptoms significantly worsened from the week April 9-15 to the week April 30 to May 4 (p < 0.0001). Moreover, female respondents and people with pre-existing mental health problems were at higher risk of developing severe depression and anxiety symptoms (p < 0.0001). CONCLUSIONS Although physical isolation and lockdown represent essential public health measures for containing the spread of the COVID-19 pandemic, they are a serious threat for mental health and well-being of the general population. As an integral part of COVID-19 response, mental health needs should be addressed.

Abstract
BACKGROUND A large proportion of major depressive patients will experience recurring episodes. Many patients still do not response to available antidepressants. In order to meaningfully predict who will not respond to which antidepressant, it may be necessary to combine multiple biomarkers and clinical variables. METHODS Eight hundred fifty-seven patients with recurrent major depressive disorder who were followed up 3-10 years involved 32 variables including socio-demographic, clinical features, and SSRIs treatment features when they received the first treatment. Also, 34 tagSNPs related to 5-HT signaling pathway, were detected by using mass spectrometry analysis. The training samples which had 12 clinical variables and four tagSNPs with statistical differences were learned repeatedly to establish prediction models based on support vector machine (SVM). RESULTS Twelve clinical features (psychomotor retardation, psychotic symptoms, suicidality, weight loss, SSRIs average dose, first-course treatment response, sleep disturbance, residual symptoms, personality, onset age, frequency of episode, and duration) were found significantly difference (P< 0.05) between 302 SSRI-resistance and 304 SSRI non-resistance group. Ten SSRI-resistance predicting models were finally selected by using support vector machine, and our study found that mutations in tagSNPs increased the accuracy of these models to a certain degree. CONCLUSION Using a data-driven machine learning method, we found 10 predictive models by mining existing clinical data, which might enable prospective identification of patients who are likely to resistance to SSRIs antidepressant.

Abstract
The role of nutrition in mental health is becoming increasingly acknowledged. Along with dietary intake, nutrition can also be obtained from "nutrient supplements", such as polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs), vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, amino acids and pre/probiotic supplements. Recently, a large number of meta-analyses have emerged examining nutrient supplements in the treatment of mental disorders. To produce a meta-review of this top-tier evidence, we identified, synthesized and appraised all meta-analyses of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) reporting on the efficacy and safety of nutrient supplements in common and severe mental disorders. Our systematic search identified 33 meta-analyses of placebo-controlled RCTs, with primary analyses including outcome data from 10,951 individuals. The strongest evidence was found for PUFAs (particularly as eicosapentaenoic acid) as an adjunctive treatment for depression. More nascent evidence suggested that PUFAs may also be beneficial for attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder, whereas there was no evidence for schizophrenia. Folate-based supplements were widely researched as adjunctive treatments for depression and schizophrenia, with positive effects from RCTs of high-dose methylfolate in major depressive disorder. There was emergent evidence for N-acetylcysteine as a useful adjunctive treatment in mood disorders and schizophrenia. All nutrient supplements had good safety profiles, with no evidence of serious adverse effects or contraindications with psychiatric medications. In conclusion, clinicians should be informed of the nutrient supplements with established efficacy for certain conditions (such as eicosapentaenoic acid in depression), but also made aware of those currently lacking evidentiary support. Future research should aim to determine which individuals may benefit most from evidence-based supplements, to further elucidate the underlying mechanisms.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Gamma-hydroxybutyrate (GHB; or sodium oxybate) is an endogenous GHB-/gamma-aminobutyric acid B receptor agonist. It is approved for application in narcolepsy and has been proposed for the potential treatment of Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, fibromyalgia, and depression, all of which involve neuro-immunological processes. Tryptophan catabolites (TRYCATs), the cortisol-awakening response (CAR), and brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) have been suggested as peripheral biomarkers of neuropsychiatric disorders. GHB has been shown to induce a delayed reduction of T helper and natural killer cell counts and alter basal cortisol levels, but GHB's effects on TRYCATs, CAR, and BDNF are unknown. METHODS Therefore, TRYCAT and BDNF serum levels, as well as CAR and the affective state (Positive and Negative Affect Schedule [PANAS]) were measured in the morning after a single nocturnal dose of GHB (50 mg/kg body weight) in 20 healthy male volunteers in a placebo-controlled, balanced, randomized, double-blind, cross-over design. RESULTS In the morning after nocturnal GHB administration, the TRYCATs indolelactic acid, kynurenine, kynurenic acid, 3-hydroxykynurenine, and quinolinic acid; the 3-hydroxykynurenine to kynurenic acid ratio; and the CAR were significantly reduced (P < 0.05-0.001, Benjamini-Hochberg corrected). The quinolinic acid to kynurenic acid ratio was reduced by trend. Serotonin, tryptophan, and BDNF levels, as well as PANAS scores in the morning, remained unchanged after a nocturnal GHB challenge. CONCLUSIONS GHB has post-acute effects on peripheral biomarkers of neuropsychiatric disorders, which might be a model to explain some of its therapeutic effects in disorders involving neuro-immunological pathologies. This study was registered at ClinicalTrials.gov as NCT02342366.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Insomnia in Major Depressive Disorder (MDD) is highly prevalent and associated with increased suffering and functional impairment. Effective, evidence-based treatments for insomnia in MDD are an unmet need in clinical practice. AREAS COVERED Herein, the authors provide a review of the clinical correlates, putative neurobiological mechanisms and treatment options for the management of insomnia in individuals with MDD. EXPERT OPINION Sleep disturbances in MDD should be recognized as at least one of the following: (1) a domain of depressive psychopathology; (2) a consequence of rhythm disruptions; (3) a manifestation of comorbidities of sleep disturbances; (4) a manifestation of the influence of sex hormones in the brain in MDD; (5) a general medical comorbidity; and (6) a side effect of antidepressant medications. Assessment of insomnia in clinical practices is routinely performed with the use of non-structured interviews. Other methods such as standardized questionnaires and sleep diaries, along with complementary methods such as actigraphy and polysomnography are more scarcely applied. Smartphones and personal devices offer a promising strategy with the use of passive, long lasting, and ecologically valid assessments despite the lack of studies specifically targeting insomnia in individuals with MDD. New therapeutic approaches are essential, including novel targets such as orexins/hypocretins and the endocannabinoid system.
