De Bock M, Sienaert P. Corticosteroids and mania: A systematic review. World J Biol Psychiatry 2024; 25:161-174. [PMID: 38363330 DOI: 10.1080/15622975.2024.2312572] [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: 11/22/2023] [Accepted: 01/28/2024] [Indexed: 02/17/2024]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES Corticosteroids are widely prescribed for a variety of medical conditions. Accumulating evidence suggests that their use may be associated with adverse psychiatric effects, including mania. In this systematic review, we aim to critically evaluate the existing literature on the association between corticosteroid use and the emergence of mania. METHODS We conducted a comprehensive search of major electronic databases (PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library) for relevant studies published up to the date of the search (12th January 2023). Inclusion criteria involve studies that investigate the association between corticosteroid use and the emergence of mania in adult patients. The primary outcome is the prevalence of (hypo)mania following corticosteroid administration. Secondary outcomes include potential risk factors, dose-response relationships, and differences among various corticosteroid formulations. RESULTS The identified studies were subjected to a systematic selection process and data extraction by an independent reviewer. A total of 47 articles met the inclusion criteria for our systematic review. CONCLUSION Our findings suggest that mania is a common side-effect of corticosteroid use, particularly in prednisone equivalent doses above 40 mg. These findings hold practical significance for clinicians and provide insights into potential interventions, including careful monitoring, dose adjustments, and consideration of psychotropic medications when managing corticosteroid-induced mania.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the impact of mental health comorbidity in children and young adults with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). DESIGN Retrospective observational study. SETTING Representative population, routinely collected primary care data from the UK Optimum Patient Care Research Database (2015-2019). PARTICIPANTS Patients with IBD aged 5-25 years with mental health conditions were compared with patients with IBD of the same age without mental health conditions. PRIMARY AND SECONDARY OUTCOME MEASURES Outcomes comprised quality-of-life indicators (low mood, self-harm, parasuicide, bowel symptoms, absence from school or work, unemployment, substance use and sleep disturbance), IBD interventions (medication, abdominal surgery, stoma formation and nutritional supplements) and healthcare utilisation (primary care interactions and hospital admissions). RESULTS Of 1943 individuals aged 5-25 years with IBD, 295 (15%) had a mental health comorbidity. Mental health comorbidity was associated with increased bowel symptoms (adjusted incident rate ratio (aIRR) 1.82; 95% CI 1.33 to 2.52), sleep disturbance (adjusted HR (aHR) 1.63; 95% CI 1.02 to 2.62), substance use (aHR 3.63; 95% CI 1.69 to 7.78), primary care interactions (aIRR 1.33; 95% CI 1.12 to 1.58) and hospital admissions (aIRR 1.87; 95%CI 1.29 to 2.75). In individuals ≥18 years old, mental health comorbidity was associated with increased time off work (aHR 1.55; 95% CI 1.21 to 1.99). CONCLUSIONS Mental health comorbidity in children and young adults with IBD is associated with poorer quality of life, higher healthcare utilisation and more time off work. It is imperative that affected young patients with IBD are monitored and receive early mental health support as part of their multidisciplinary care. TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER The study protocol was specified and registered a priori (ClinicalTrials.gov study identifier: NCT05206734).

Abstract
Psychiatric disorders are 1.5 to 2 times more prevalent in persons with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) than in the general population, with pooled prevalence estimates of 21% for clinical anxiety and 15% for depression. Rates are even higher when considering mental health symptoms, as nearly one-third of persons with IBD experience elevated anxiety symptoms and one-quarter experience depression symptoms. Rates of these symptoms were much higher during periods of disease activity, more common in women than men, and more common in Crohn's disease than ulcerative colitis. There is robust evidence of the detrimental effects of comorbid depression and anxiety on the subsequent course of IBD based on longitudinal studies tracking outcomes over time. However, psychiatric disorders and IBD have bidirectional effects, with each affecting risk of the other. Elevated mental health concerns have been consistently associated with greater healthcare utilization and costs related to IBD. There is some signal that low resilience in adolescence could be a risk factor for developing IBD and that enhancing resilience may improve mental health and intestinal disease outcomes in IBD. Psychological therapies used to treat anxiety and depression occurring in the context of IBD have been shown to significantly improve the quality of life for persons with IBD and reduce anxiety and depression. There is less evidence in regard to the impact of psychotropic medications on mental health or disease outcomes in persons with IBD. There is consensus, however, that mental health must be addressed as part of comprehensive IBD care for children and adults.

Abstract
Myasthenia gravis (MG) is a serious and debilitating autoimmune disease characterized by muscle weakness, shortness of breath, and issues affecting the eyes, limbs, throat, and speech. Given the intense physical toll of the disease, it is unsurprising that higher rates of depression are observed among MG patients. We present a case involving a 30-year-old female patient who was admitted to the hospital for MG exacerbation and had a psychiatric consultation for worsening depression symptoms. The patient acknowledged symptoms of sad mood, crying spells, anhedonia, fatigue, insomnia, and inappropriate guilt. She admits to psychosocial stressors of her declining health, recent job loss, and low self-esteem due to weight gain. Past medical history includes a thymectomy and a total thyroidectomy that caused postsurgical-acquired hypothyroidism. She is currently on prednisone and pyridostigmine for her MG. The patient has many potential causes of her increased depressive symptoms, including her medications, psychosocial stressors, and her past medical history, in addition to her MG. However, the literature shows higher incidence rates of depression in MG patients compared to both healthy controls and controls with other comparable chronic conditions, as well as shows a positive association between increased depressive symptoms and MG severity. Thus, these findings prompt the consideration of possible physiological interplay between the two diseases and encourage further research into the association between MG and depression.

Abstract
Background High-dose corticosteroids may be accompanied by central nervous system side-effects, including psychiatric disorders. These psychiatric disorders tend to appear relatively early in treatment. We report an unusual case of mania after long-term administration of a small dose of prednisolone. Case Presentation A patient was treated for relapsed Crohn's disease with a small dose of prednisolone (10 mg/day). After 6 months, she became severely manic. There was no family history of psychiatric disorders. The mania was resistant to olanzapine and sodium valproate, but improved with the reduction of the prednisolone dose. Prednisolone was tapered off while confirming with the gastroenterologist that there was no flare-up of Crohn's disease. She is now off prednisolone and is doing well, with no outbreaks of Crohn's disease or manic episodes. Conclusion This case of severe mania after 6 months of low-dose prednisolone is unusual. Physicians should be aware that even small doses of long-term prednisolone may cause the emergence of severe mania.

Abstract
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a globally rising chronic intestinal disease that affects individuals in many parts of the world. Immunosuppressive medications such as corticosteroids are used to manage flare-ups and to induce remission in IBD. Corticosteroids are said to cause several systemic symptoms, but they are also associated with drug-induced neuropsychiatric disorders. This article examines the existing data on psychiatric and cognitive effects associated with corticosteroid therapy in relation to IBD. Many studies have found that corticosteroids appear to cause mood disturbances such as mania, hypomania, depression, and cognitive problems in the first few weeks of therapy, but these effects are dose-dependent and often mild. The purpose of this literature review is to shed light on the impact corticosteroids can have on individuals' mental health, which will aid physicians in the future when treating patients with IBD. Healthcare professionals should advise patients of this risk and assess the need for intervention. While there is evidence that corticosteroids can elicit neuropsychiatric symptoms, more data on people with IBD who are on corticosteroid therapy is needed to determine the prevalence of glucocorticoid-induced mood changes in this population.

Asian J Psychiatr 2022; 73:103101.

Abstract
Treatment guidelines for the COVID-19 treatment are still evolving, moreover, the changing variants of the virus with varying virulence, pose challenges for the healthcare professionals (HCP) not only in managing the primary infection but also a myriad of physical and neuropsychiatric complications. The neuropsychiatric adverse consequences associated with the COVID-19 are attributable to the direct effect of the virus, secondary complications, drug-drug interaction, and neuropsychiatric manifestations of drugs used in its treatment. These neuropsychiatric manifestations not only complicate the ongoing treatment but also adversely affect the prognosis. As the treatment guidelines for the management of the COVID are still evolving, the use of non-evidence-based medications, including their off-label use, are rampant that often extend to their non-judicious or irrational use (more than the recommended dose, multiple medications, etc.). Despite the significance of the topic, literature is sparse. Knowing about the risk factors and the potential neuropsychiatric adverse effects with various anti-COVID-19 medications would help HCPs in effectively preventing, early identifying, and promptly managing these neuropsychiatric symptoms. Therefore, this narrative review is aimed to highlight the neuropsychiatric symptoms associated with medications/interventions used in the management of COVID-19 and how to manage them, especially in view of the world facing the third wave of COVID-19.

Abstract
Background Anxiety and depression are the most common psychological disorders found in Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) patients. Accurate measuring of these disorders should be proposed for a prompt management. Patient-reported outcome measurements (PROMs) allow patients to self-report their psychological symptoms. Objective To highlight the presence of PROMs measuring anxiety and depression in IBD setting evaluating the most used psychometric tools. Methods We reviewed the literature from 2010 up to September 2021. Articles on adult IBD patients assessing depression and anxiety by PROMs in English language were included. Results Thirty-six studies, including 11 psychometric tools were found. Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (21 studies), Beck Depression Inventory II (5 studies), Spielberg State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (3 studies), Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (3 studies), Symptom Checklist-90 (2 studies), Euro Quality of Life (2 studies) mostly used psychometric tools for anxiety and depression in IBD settings. Conclusion Our review analyzed psychometric tools used for PROMs evaluating anxiety and depression in IBD setting. No chronological differences have emerged, all have been used in the last ten years, highlighting a lack of specificity. The strong association between IBD and mood disorders suggests that clinicians should consider the evaluation of depression and anxiety as integral parts of IBD clinical care. It is essential to identify tools enabling these items to be detected better. A global view of IBD patients, accounting not only for physical but also for psychical symptoms with an early and feasible assessment of unrecognized psychiatric disorders, can have a strong impact on their management strategy.

Abstract
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), as a global disease, has attracted much research interest. Constant research has led to a better understanding of the disease condition and further promoted its management. We here reviewed the conventional and the novel drugs and therapies, as well as the potential ones, which have shown promise in preclinical studies and are likely to be effective future therapies. The conventional treatments aim at controlling symptoms through pharmacotherapy, including aminosalicylates, corticosteroids, immunomodulators, and biologics, with other general measures and/or surgical resection if necessary. However, a considerable fraction of patients do not respond to available treatments or lose response, which calls for new therapeutic strategies. Diverse therapeutic options are emerging, involving small molecules, apheresis therapy, improved intestinal microecology, cell therapy, and exosome therapy. In addition, patient education partly upgrades the efficacy of IBD treatment. Recent advances in the management of IBD have led to a paradigm shift in the treatment goals, from targeting symptom-free daily life to shooting for mucosal healing. In this review, the latest progress in IBD treatment is summarized to understand the advantages, pitfalls, and research prospects of different drugs and therapies and to provide a basis for the clinical decision and further research of IBD.

Abstract
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a multisystemic disease with a wide range of extraintestinal manifestations in both ulcerative colitis and Crohn’s disease, while increasing evidence supports the interaction between gut and central nervous system, described as “gut-brain axis”. According to epidemiological studies, it seems that patients with IBD present more frequently with impaired mental status compared to the general population, leading to diagnostic and management problems in this group of patients. The association between IBD and mental disorders, such as dementia and autism spectrum disorders, has not been fully clarified; genetic factors and the gut-brain axis seem to be involved. The purpose of this review is to present and analyze the epidemiological data about this issue, describe the possible pathogenetic mechanisms and discuss some considerations about the management of patients with IBD and impaired mental status.

Despite an emphasis on respiratory complications, the evidence of neurological manifestations of SARS-CoV-2 infection is rapidly growing, which is substantially contributing to morbidity and mortality. The neurological disorders associated with COVID-19 may have several pathophysiological underpinnings, which are yet to be explored. Hypothetically, SARS-CoV-2 may affect the central nervous system (CNS) either by direct mechanisms like neuronal retrograde dissemination and hematogenous dissemination, or via indirect pathways. CNS complications associated with COVID-19 include encephalitis, acute necrotizing encephalopathy, diffuse leukoencephalopathy, stroke (both ischemic and hemorrhagic), venous sinus thrombosis, meningitis, and neuroleptic malignant syndrome. These may result from different mechanisms, including direct virus infection of the CNS, virus-induced hyper-inflammatory states, and post-infection immune responses. On the other hand, the Guillain-Barre syndrome, hyposmia, hypogeusia, and myopathy are the outcomes of peripheral nervous system injury. Although the therapeutic potential of certain repurposed drugs has led to their off-label use against COVID-19, such as anti-retroviral drugs (remdesivir, favipiravir, and lopinavir-ritonavir combination), biologics (tocilizumab), antibiotics (azithromycin), antiparasitics (chloroquine and hydroxychloroquine), and corticosteroids (dexamethasone), unfortunately, the associated clinical neuropsychiatric adverse events remains a critical issue. Therefore, COVID-19 represents a major threat to the field of neuropsychiatry, as both the virus and the potential therapies may induce neurologic as well as psychiatric disorders. Notably, potential COVID-19 medications may also interact with the medications of pre-existing neuropsychiatric diseases, thereby further complicating the condition. From this perspective, this review will discuss the possible neurological manifestations and sequelae of SARS-CoV-2 infection with emphasis on the probable underlying neurotropic mechanisms. Additionally, we will highlight the concurrence of COVID-19 treatment-associated neuropsychiatric events and possible clinically relevant drug interactions, to provide a useful framework and help researchers, especially the neurologists in understanding the neurologic facets of the ongoing pandemic to control the morbidity and mortality.

Major Neurologic Adverse Drug Reactions, Potential Drug-Drug Interactions and Pharmacokinetic Aspects of Drugs Used in COVID-19 Patients with Stroke: A Narrative Review. Ther Clin Risk Manag 2020; 16:595-605. [PMID: 32669846 PMCID: PMC7335700 DOI: 10.2147/tcrm.s259152] [Citation(s) in RCA: 31] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/22/2020] [Accepted: 06/10/2020] [Indexed: 01/20/2023] Open
Abstract
Stroke has been considered as one of the underlying diseases that increases the probability of severe infection and mortality. Meanwhile, there are ongoing reports of stroke subsequent to COVID-19 infection. In this narrative paper, we reviewed major neurologic adverse drug reactions (ADRs) and pharmacokinetics of drugs which are routinely used for COVID-19 infection and their potential drug-drug interactions (PDDIs) with common drugs used for the treatment of stroke. It is highly recommended to monitor patients on chloroquine (CQ), hydroxychloroquine (HCQ), antiviral drugs, and/or corticosteroids about initiation or progression of cardiac arrhythmias, delirium, seizure, myopathy, and/or neuropathy. In addition, PDDIs of anti-COVID-19 drugs with tissue plasminogen activator (tPA), anticoagulants, antiaggregants, statins, antihypertensive agents, and iodine-contrast agents should be considered. The most dangerous PDDIs were interaction of lopinavir/ritonavir or atazanavir with clopidogrel, prasugrel, and new oral anticoagulants (NOACs).

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW This review focuses on the relationship between trauma and pain in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), and offers effective treatment strategies. RECENT FINDINGS Recent evidence points to bidirectional pathways between psychiatric disorders and IBD. The impact of trauma and development of post-traumatic stress symptoms on IBD disease course is beginning to be appreciated including its relationship with pain. First-line treatments for both psychiatric and chronic pain disorders include behavioral interventions such as cognitive behavioral therapy, hypnosis, and mindfulness, and there is emerging evidence studying Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and telehealth interventions. Pharmacological treatments using neuromodulators can also be beneficial. An integrated care team, such as a subspecialty medical home model, can provide the best patient experience and address comprehensive care needs efficiently and effectively. Psychosocial factors impact IBD course and necessitate effective management. Despite the significant limitations of research, particularly lack of clinical trials examining behavioral and pharmacotherapy interventions in IBD, effective treatments exist and are best utilized in an integrated care setting.

Incidence of Adverse Psychiatric Events During Treatment of Inflammatory Bowel Disease With Biologic Therapies: A Systematic Review. CROHN'S & COLITIS 360 2019; 2:otz053. [PMID: 32003760 PMCID: PMC6977711 DOI: 10.1093/crocol/otz053] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/13/2019] [Indexed: 12/27/2022] Open
Abstract
We conducted a systematic review and a fixed-effects meta-analysis to determine whether incident adverse psychiatric events (APE) including depression, anxiety, psychosis, or suicide were associated with biologic therapy in IBD. Six randomized controlled trials and a cohort study met criteria, reporting an incidence of APE in 4,882 patients. The risk difference per 100 person-months of any APE with a biologic medication was 0.01 (95% confidence interval = 0.00-0.02). There was insufficient evidence available in randomized controlled trials to conclude that biologic therapy in IBD is associated with an increased incidence of APE.
