Wu PC, Tsai SJ, Bai YM, Hsu JW, Su TP, Chen TJ, Chen MH. Risks of developing major psychiatric disorders among child and adolescent intensive care unit survivors. J Affect Disord 2024; 362:772-778. [PMID: 39032708 DOI: 10.1016/j.jad.2024.07.124] [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: 01/29/2024] [Revised: 06/25/2024] [Accepted: 07/16/2024] [Indexed: 07/23/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The mental health of child and adolescent intensive care unit (ICU) survivors is increasingly being researched. However, the literature on how various types of critical illness influence specific psychiatric disorders remains limited. METHODS This study analyzed the data of 8704 child and adolescent ICU survivors and 87,040 age-, sex-, family income-, and residence-matched controls who were followed from enrollment to the end of 2013; the data covered the period from 1996 to 2013 and were extracted from a nationwide data set. The primary outcomes were the risks of five major psychiatric disorders (MPDs), namely schizophrenia, bipolar disorder (BD), major depressive disorder (MDD), obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD), and posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). RESULTS Relative to the controls, the child and adolescent ICU survivors (mean age = 10.33 years) exhibited higher risks of developing five MPDs. The associated hazard ratios (HRs) and confidence intervals (CIs) are as follows: PTSD, HR = 4.67, 95 % CI = 2.42-9.01; schizophrenia, HR = 3.19, 95 % CI = 2.27-4.47; BD, HR = 2.02, 95 % CI = 1.33-3.05; OCD, HR = 1.96, 95 % CI = 1.21-3.16; and MDD, HR = 1.68, 95 % CI = 1.44-1.95. The risks of developing MPDs varied across multiple types of critical illness related to ICU admission. CONCLUSIONS The risks of MPDs were significantly higher among the child and adolescent ICU survivors than among the controls. The development of appropriate MPD prevention strategies should be emphasized for this vulnerable population.

[PMID: 39310926 PMCID: PMC11450424 DOI: 10.1017/s2045796024000477] [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: 11/06/2023] [Revised: 04/29/2024] [Accepted: 08/06/2024] [Indexed: 10/06/2024] Open
Abstract
AIMS Research evidence has established an association of obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) with suicidal thoughts and suicide attempts. However, further investigation is required to determine whether individuals with OCD have higher risk of death by suicide compared with those without OCD. METHODS Of the entire Taiwanese population, between 2003 and 2017, 56,977 individuals with OCD were identified; they were then matched at a 1:4 ratio with 227,908 non-OCD individuals on the basis of their birth year and sex. Suicide mortality was assessed between 2003 and 2017 for both groups. Time-dependent Cox regression models were used to investigate the difference in suicide risk between individuals with versus without OCD. RESULTS After adjustment for major psychiatric comorbidities (i.e., schizophrenia, bipolar disorder and major depressive disorder), the OCD group had higher risk of suicide (hazard ratio: 1.97, 95% confidence interval: 1.57-2.48) during the follow-up compared with the comparison group. Furthermore, OCD severity, as indicated by psychiatric hospitalizations due to OCD, was positively correlated with suicide risk. CONCLUSIONS Regardless of the existence of major psychiatric comorbidities, OCD was found to be an independent risk factor for death by suicide. A suicide prevention program specific to individuals with OCD may be developed in clinical practice in the future.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The association between specific types of malignancies and the subsequent risk of dementia remains unknown. DESIGN A retrospective population-based cohort study based on data from Taiwan National Health Insurance Research Database. SETTING AND PARTICIPANTS We recruited 32,250 patients who survived malignancies and 322,500 controls between 1998 and 2011 and followed them up until the end of 2013. MEASUREMENTS Diagnoses of dementia (including Alzheimer's disease (AD), vascular dementia (VaD), and unspecified dementia) was made during the follow-up period. Cox regression analyses were performed after adjusting for potential confounders. A sensitivity analysis was conducted to exclude patients with prodromal dementia. RESULTS Cancer survivors were more likely to develop AD (hazard ratio [HR]: 1.68, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.38-2.06), unspecified dementia (HR: 1.19, 95% CI: 1.07-1.32), and any dementia (HR: 1.26, 95% CI: 1.16-1.37) compared with controls after adjusting for potential confounders. Importantly, cancers of the digestive and genitourinary organs seem to be associated with AD, unspecified dementia, and any dementia, whereas only malignant neoplasms of the brain are more likely to develop into VaD. Sensitivity analyses after exclusion of the first three or five years of observation and after exclusion of case enrollment before 2009 or 2007 showed consistent findings. CONCLUSION Cancer survivors are at higher risk of subsequent dementia. Different types of cancer survivors may contribute to variable risks of specific dementias. Further studies are necessary to investigate the underlying mechanisms in cancer survivors and patients with dementia.

Abstract
Over the past few decades, the incidence of childhood allergic diseases has increased globally, and their impact on the affected child extends beyond the allergy itself. There is evidence of an association between childhood allergic diseases and the development of neurological disorders. Several studies have shown a correlation between allergic diseases and tic disorders (TD), and allergic diseases may be an important risk factor for TD. Possible factors influencing the development of these disorders include neurotransmitter imbalance, maternal anxiety or depression, gut microbial disorders, sleep disturbances, maternal allergic status, exposure to tobacco, and environmental factors. Moreover, gut microbial disturbances, altered immunological profiles, and DNA methylation in patients with allergic diseases may be potential mechanisms contributing to the development of TD. An in-depth investigation of the relationship between allergic diseases and TD in children will be important for preventing and treating TD.

Abstract
Although a growing number of studies have investigated the relationship between psychosocial factors and periodontitis, studies investigating the association between bipolar disorder (BD) and periodontitis are lacking. Using the Taiwan National Health Insurance Research Database, 4251 adolescents with BD and 17,004 age- and sex-matched controls were included. They were followed up from enrollment to the end of 2011 or death. Periodontitis was diagnosed during the follow-up. Cox regression analysis indicated that adolescents with BD had a higher risk of periodontitis (hazard ratio [HR]: 2.96, 95% confidence interval [CI] 2.77-3.17) than did controls. Subanalyses stratified by sex revealed a higher risk of periodontitis in male (HR: 2.83, 95% CI 2.56-3.14) and female (HR: 3.01, 95% CI 2.74-3.30) adolescents with BD than their respective controls. The long-term use of mood stabilizers was associated with a higher risk of periodontitis (HR: 1.19, 95% CI 1.06-1.35) in the BD cohort. Our study highlighted an increased risk of periodontitis in adolescents with BD compared with controls during the follow-up. We recommend that more attention should be paid to the prevention of periodontitis in adolescents with BD, especially those who are female or receiving mood stabilizers.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Congenital cleft lip and palate (CCLP) may be associated with major psychiatric disorders, including autism spectrum disorder (ASD), attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, and major depressive disorder. METHODS From the Taiwan National Health Insurance Research Database, 1,158 children and adolescents with CCLP and 11,580 age/sex-matched controls without CCLP were included in this study between 2001 and 2010; they were followed up until the end of 2011 to identify the aforementioned major psychiatric disorders. RESULTS After adjustment for age, sex, income, residence, and family history, the Cox regression model revealed a positive relationship of CCLP with subsequent schizophrenia (hazard ratio [HR]: 7.60, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 2.03-28.54), ASD (HR: 6.03, 95% CI: 1.76-20.61), and ADHD (HR: 7.33, 95% CI: 5.01-10.73). DISCUSSION These findings suggest that clinicians should be attentive to the presence or emergence of mental health conditions in patients with CCLP. Further studies are necessary to investigate the pathogenesis between CCLP and major psychiatric disorders.

Abstract
This longitudinal study aimed to investigate the risk of subsequent autoimmune disease in patients with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) in Asian population. Between 2002 and 2009, we enrolled 5273 patients with PTSD and 1:4 matched controls from the National Health Insurance Database of Taiwan, and followed up the patients until December 31, 2011, or death. The investigated autoimmune diseases included thyroiditis, lupus, rheumatic arthritis, inflammatory bowel disease, Sjogren's syndrome, dermatomyositis, and polymyositis. The Cox regression model was used to estimate the risk of developing autoimmune diseases, with adjustment for demographics and psychiatric and medical comorbidities. Furthermore, we examined the psychiatric clinics utility of patients with PTSD indicating the severity of PTSD in association with autoimmune diseases. After adjusting for confounders, patients with PTSD had a 2.26-fold higher risk of developing any autoimmune diseases (reported as hazard ratios with 95% confidence intervals: 1.82-2.80) than the controls. For specific autoimmune diseases, patients with PTSD had a 2.70-fold higher risk (1.98-3.68) of thyroiditis, a 2.95-fold higher risk (1.20-7.30) of lupus, and a 6.32-fold higher risk (3.44-11.60) of Sjogren's syndrome. Moreover, the PTSD severity was associated with the risk of autoimmune diseases in a dose-dependent manner. The patient with the highest psychiatric clinics utility was associated with an 8.23-fold higher risk (6.21-10.90) of any autoimmune diseases than the controls. Patients with PTSD had an increased risk of autoimmune diseases, and such risk was associated with the severity of PTSD in a dose-dependent manner. However, the present study did not provide a direct effect between PTSD and autoimmune diseases, but rather an association. Further studies are warranted to examine the underlying pathophysiological mechanisms.

Cause-specific mortality and comorbid neurodevelopmental disorder in 167,515 patients with bipolar disorder: An entire population longitudinal study. J Affect Disord 2024; 347:463-468. [PMID: 38065473 DOI: 10.1016/j.jad.2023.12.007] [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: 05/24/2023] [Revised: 10/28/2023] [Accepted: 12/02/2023] [Indexed: 01/08/2024]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE Studies addressing premature mortality in bipolar disorder (BD) patients are limited by small sample sizes. Herein, we used almost 99 % of the population of Taiwan to address this issue, and its association with comorbid neurodevelopmental disorders and severe BD. METHODS Between 2003 and 2017, we enrolled 167,515 individuals with BD and controls matched 1:4 for sex and birth year from the National Health Insurance Database linked to the Database of National Death Registry in Taiwan. Time-dependent Cox regression models were used to examine cause-specific mortality (all-cause, natural, and unnatural causes [accidents or suicide]). RESULTS With adjustments of sex, age, income, urbanization, and physical conditions, suicide was associated with the highest risk of mortality (reported as hazard ratio with 95 % confidence interval: 9.15; 8.53-9.81) among BD patients, followed by unnatural (4.94; 4.72-5.17), accidental (2.15; 1.99-2.32), and natural causes (1.02; 1.00-1.05). Comorbid attention-deficiency hyperactivity disorder did not contribute to the increased risk of cause-specific mortality; however, comorbid autism spectrum disorder (ASD) increased such risks, particularly for natural (3.00; 1.85-4.88) and accidental causes (7.47; 1.80-31.1). Cause-specific mortality revealed a linear trend with the frequency of psychiatric hospitalization (all, p for trend <0.001), and BD patients hospitalized twice or more each year had 34.63-fold increased risk of suicide mortality (26.03-46.07). CONCLUSIONS BD patients with a higher frequency of psychiatric hospitalization have the highest risk of suicide mortality, and comorbid ASD was associated with an increased risk of natural and accidental causes of mortality.

[PMID: 38183026 PMCID: PMC10768233 DOI: 10.1186/s12887-023-04482-4] [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: 02/21/2023] [Accepted: 12/13/2023] [Indexed: 01/07/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Allergic rhinitis is the most common allergic disease. It can accompany psychological disorders such as tic disorders due to the prolonged course of the symptoms of allergic rhinitis. This pioneer case-control study aims to investigate tic disorders in children and adolescents under 18 years of age diagnosed with allergic rhinitis. METHOD The case group in this study consisted of patients who had both allergic rhinitis and tic disorders. Patients with allergic rhinitis without tic disorders were also enrolled as the control group with matched gender and age. Demographic characteristics, tic classifications, and contributing factors for allergic rhinitis and tic disorders were studied among the cases. Tic disorders were evaluated using DSM-5 criteria for the classification of tic disorders. RESULTS 47 patients in the case group and 47 patients in the control group were included in this study. 53.2% and 46.8% were males and females in the case group, respectively. The mean age of the patients was 10.46 ± 3.97 years old. Sound tics were more common among the patients compared to motor tics. Patients with concomitant AR and tic disorders had more days per week with AR symptoms (P-value ≤ 0.001; OR (every day vs. three days a week = 11.02(2.98, 40.76))). Most patients with sound tick were women (p: 0.026), and most patients with motion tic were in the Provisional tic disorder group (p: 0.001). The history of infantile eczema was seen more in patients without sound tic (p: 0.025), and otitis media was significantly less common among patients with sound tics (p: 0.026). Provisional tic disorder was the most common class among the patients. In the case group (coexistence between allergic rhinitis and tic) compared to the control group, patients had significantly more days with AR symptoms per week. CONCLUSION This preliminary study indicates that Provisional tic disorder was the most common classification of tic among patients with allergic rhinitis, especially in patients with motor tics. Asthma in motor tics, a history of food allergy in infancy, and a history of infantile eczema were also common among patients with vocal tics. Also, patients with allergic rhinitis and tic had more severe disease (more symptoms per week) than those with rhinitis alone. These findings emphasize the association of tic disorders with immunological pathways.

IL-4 shapes microglia-dependent pruning of the cerebellum during postnatal development. Neuron 2023; 111:3435-3449.e8. [PMID: 37918358 DOI: 10.1016/j.neuron.2023.09.031] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/09/2022] [Revised: 06/26/2023] [Accepted: 09/22/2023] [Indexed: 11/04/2023]
Abstract
Interleukin-4 (IL-4) is a type 2 cytokine with pleiotropic functions in adaptive immunity, allergies, and cognitive processes. Here, we show that low levels of IL-4 in the early postnatal stage delineate a critical period in which microglia extensively prune cerebellar neurons. Elevating the levels of this cytokine via peripheral injection, or using a mouse model of allergic asthma, leads to defective pruning, permanent increase in cerebellar granule cells, and circuit alterations. These animals also show a hyperkinetic and impulsive-like phenotype, reminiscent of attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). These alterations are blocked in Il4rαfl/fl::Cx3cr1-CreER mice, which are deficient in IL-4 receptor signaling in microglia. These findings demonstrate a previously unknown role for IL-4 during a neuroimmune critical period of cerebellar maturation and provide a first putative mechanism for the comorbidity between allergic disease and ADHD observed in humans.

BMC Pediatr 2023; 23:399. [PMID: 37580673 PMCID: PMC10424416 DOI: 10.1186/s12887-023-04233-5] [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: 03/08/2023] [Accepted: 08/07/2023] [Indexed: 08/16/2023] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE The study was to investigate serum total IgE levels and the distribution of specific IgE types in children aged 6-9 years with tic disorder, in order to provide knowledge for diagnosis and treatment of children with tic disorder. METHODS Total serum IgE levels were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Specific IgE levels in 72 children with tic disorder and normal 31 children were detected by EUROblot, respectively. RESULTS The total serum IgE level of children with tic disorder aged 6-9 years was significantly higher than those of children in control group. Specific IgE distribution in tic disorder group was observed increased mainly including inhaled mugwort, dust mite combination 1 (house dust mite/dust mite), mold combination (penicillium point/mycobacteria/Aspergillus fumigatus/streptomyces), cockroaches in Germany respectively, and also food freshwater fish combination 1 (salmon/sea bass/carp), marine fish combination 1 (cod/lobster/scallop), egg white, and crab, while elevated specific IgE of normal children group was mainly food-based (egg white, milk, and soybean). The significant different specific IgE between two groups was dust mite combination 1 (house dust mite/dust mite) (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION The total serum IgE level of children with tic disorder aged 6-9 years was significantly increased, which may be related to the disease. Specific IgE in children with tic disorder was mainly inhalation allergens, especially dust mite combination 1 (house dust mite/dust mite), which should be avoided in clinical diagnosis and daily life.

Abstract
Background The relationship between attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) symptoms and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2D) and its cardiovascular outcomes have not been sufficiently studied. Methods 2,986 adults with T2D from the Joslin Diabetes Center at Upstate Medical University were assessed for ADHD-like symptoms, executive dysfunction, and emotional control using the Adult Self-Report Scale V1.1 (ASRS) expanded version. Surveys were sent electronically, and clinical data were obtained from the electronic medical record. Pearson chi-square test was used for categorical variables association. When ASRS scores were the dependent variable, negative binomial regression correcting for demographic variables that were associated with the ASRS scores was used. Results 155 (49.2%) of respondents met DSM-5 criteria for ADHD using the ASRS scores; Only ten (3.6%) of respondents had an ICD10 diagnosis of ADHD in their medical record; Forty-three (13.7%) had either a diagnosis of ADHD in the medical history or were taking medications used by people with ADHD. Higher levels of ADHD-like symptoms were found in patients with T2D compared with population norms. There was a modest association of the ASRS executive dysfunction subscale with overall cardiovascular comorbidities (p = 0.03). However, the p-value did not survive the multiple testing correction. Both ADHD-like symptoms and symptoms associated with emotional control, however, were not associated with specific cardiovascular diseases, hypertension, or with HbA1c, LDL-cholesterol, triglycerides, ALT, creatinine, or eGFR. Conclusion Our results suggest that adults with T2D attending a tertiary care diabetes clinic are at risk for having ADHD-like symptoms, highlighting the importance of screening for ADHD symptoms in this specialty setting and referring undiagnosed adult patients for further assessment and treatment of ADHD. Larger studies are needed to clarify the relationship between ADHD-like symptoms, executive dysfunction, and emotional control with diabetic control and comorbidities.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Whether response to antidepressants is related to the risk of developing type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) in adolescents with depression remains unknown. METHODS This study used the Taiwan National Health Insurance Research Database to enroll 1739 adolescents with antidepressant-resistant depression, 6956 with antidepressant-responsive depression, and 6956 controls between 2001 and 2010, with an end-of-2011 follow-up. Physician-diagnosed T2DM was identified at follow-up. T2DM-related risk factors, namely hypertension, dyslipidemia, and obesity, were assessed and controlled for as confounding factors. RESULTS Adolescents with antidepressant-resistant depression (hazard ratio [HR], 95 % confidence interval [CI]: 4.62, 2.75-7.75) and those with antidepressant-responsive depression (HR, 95 % CI: 3.06, 1.98-4.72) had a higher risk of developing T2DM at follow-up than did the control group. Those with antidepressant-resistant depression were more likely to receive a diagnosis of T2DM (HR, 95 % CI: 1.51, 1.04-2.19) later in life than were those with antidepressant-responsive depression. DISCUSSION Clinicians should closely monitor factors related to T2DM, such as fasting blood sugar, in high-risk populations, especially in adolescents with antidepressant-resistant depression.

Abstract
BACKGROUND People with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) may have poor oral health status because they often experience challenges with daily oral hygiene and have inadequate access to oral health care services. This study explored periodontitis risk in adolescents with ASD compared with those who did not have a diagnosis of ASD. METHODS Data from 2001 through December 31, 2011 from the Taiwan National Health Insurance Research Database on 3,473 adolescents with ASD and 34,730 age- and sex-matched people who did not have a diagnosis of ASD were obtained, and subsequent periodontitis was identified from enrollment through December 31, 2011. RESULTS Adolescents with ASD (hazard ratio, 2.01; 95% CI, 1.84 to 2.20) were more likely to develop periodontitis at follow-up than those who did not have a diagnosis of ASD. Findings remained consistent in subanalyses stratified by sex and intellectual disability. People with ASD had periodontitis onset at an earlier mean (SD) age than those who did not have a diagnosis of ASD (17.97 [3.12] vs 21.86 [2.28] years; P < .001). CONCLUSIONS ASD is an independent risk factor for subsequent periodontitis development. PRACTICAL IMPLICATIONS Oral health should be closely monitored in adolescents with ASD. Future investigation of the common pathogenesis between periodontitis and ASD is warranted.

Abstract
PURPOSE Evidence suggests an increased long-term risk of major psychiatric disorders (MPDs) in childhood and adolescent cancer survivors (CACSs). However, definitive conclusions regarding such associations and whether such associations vary for different types of cancers remain unclear. METHODS Using a nationwide data set from 2001 to 2011, we enrolled CACSs and likewise randomly selected individuals without cancer from the general population (1:10 ratio) who were matched to the CACSs with regard to demographic data. We investigated eight organ system-related cancers. The primary outcomes were the risks of seven MPD diagnoses: autism spectrum disorder (ASD), attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), schizophrenia, bipolar disorder (BD), major depressive disorder (MDD), obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), and post-traumatic stress disorder. RESULTS CACSs (n = 5,121; mean age = 9.08 years) showed increased risks of six MPD diagnoses than controls (n = 51,210), with results as follows (in descending order): ASD (hazard ratio [HR], 10.42; associated 95% CI, 4.58 to 23.69), ADHD (HR, 6.59; 95% CI, 4.91 to 8.86), BD (HR, 2.93; 95% CI, 1.26 to 6.80), MDD (HR, 1.88; 95% CI, 1.26 to 2.79), OCD (HR, 3.37; 95% CI, 1.33 to 8.52), and post-traumatic stress disorder (HR, 6.10; 95% CI, 1.46 to 25.54). CACSs also showed earlier ages at diagnoses of ADHD, schizophrenia, MDD, and OCD than controls. The risks of MPD diagnoses vary according to specific cancer types/categories. Brain cancer and lymphatic/hematopoietic tissue cancer were associated with the greatest number of MPD diagnoses (ie, each was associated with six diagnoses). In addition, ASD and ADHD were associated with most organ system-related cancers (ie, each was associated with five categories). CONCLUSION We found that CACSs were at higher risks of MPD diagnoses than controls. Follow-up care should include psychosocial interventions focusing on early signs of mental health problems and early interventions in this high-risk group.

Abstract
Whether a history of premenstrual dysphoric disorder (PMDD) is associated with a subsequent risk of major affective disorders remains unclear. This study aimed to examine the risk of unipolar depression and bipolar disorder in women with PMDD compared with those without PMDD. This study used data from the Taiwan National Health Insurance Research Database. Women who were diagnosed with PMDD and had no history of any major affective disorder were included. The controls were women without PMDD matched for demographics and physical and psychiatric comorbidities. Cox regression was used to estimate the risk of unipolar depression and bipolar disorder. We included 8222 women with PMDD and 32,888 matched controls. After adjusting for potential confounders, we found that the women with PMDD were associated with a higher risk of unipolar depression [hazard ratio (HR) 2.58; 95 % confidence interval (CI), 2.23-2.98] and bipolar disorder (HR 2.50; 95 % CI 1.62-3.88) than the controls. The PMDD group had a younger age at the diagnosis of unipolar depression (37.11 vs 41.59 years) and bipolar disorder (35.59 vs 42.02 years, p = 0.002), and shorter duration between enrollment and onset of unipolar depression (2.97 vs 5.33 years, p < 0.001) and bipolar disorder (3.05 vs 5.57 years, p < 0.001). Our results showed a strong association between PMDD and major affective disorders. Healthcare workers should be aware of patients with PMDD and the risk of developing major affective mental disorders.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Few studies have reported an association between atopic dermatitis and cognitive impairment in children. Therefore, we evaluated the association between atopic dermatitis (AD) and neurodevelopmental dysfunction in children. METHODS We analyzed 2,395,966 children born between 2008 and 2012 in Korea. All data were acquired from the databases of the Korean National Health Insurance System. AD was defined as five or more diagnoses before age 24 months. The outcome was suspected neurodevelopmental dysfunction in the gross motor skill, fine motor skill, cognition, language, sociality, and self-care domains of the Korean Developmental Screening Test for Infants and Children at age 6 years. The positive control outcome was defined as attention deficit hyperactive disorder (ADHD). The associations were assessed using ordinal logistic regression, adjusting for asthma and allergic rhinitis. RESULTS Among the eligible children, 89,452 and 30,557 were allocated to the control and AD groups, respectively. In the weighted data, the AD group showed a higher risk of suspected neurodevelopmental dysfunction in the total score (weighted adjusted odds ratio [95% CI] 1.10 [1.05-1.16]), gross motor skills (1.14 [1.04-1.25]), and fine motor skills (1.15 [1.06-1.25]) than the control group. The AD with steroids or hospitalization groups showed an increased risk of suspected neurodevelopmental dysfunction. In addition, the AD group showed a significant association with mental retardation, psychological development disorder, and behavioral and emotional disorders as well as ADHD. CONCLUSIONS AD before age 2 years may be associated with an increased risk of neurodevelopmental dysfunction including gross and fine motor skills in the young childhood period.

Abstract
AIMS Previous studies have suggested an increased risk of developing schizophrenia later in life in children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). This study aims to investigate the diagnosis stability and the potential predictors for progression to schizophrenia in ASD. METHODS We recruited 11 170 adolescents (10-19 years) and young adults (20-29 years) with ASD between 2001 and 2010. They were followed up to the end of 2011 to identify newly diagnosed schizophrenia. The Kaplan-Meier method and Cox regression with age as a time scale were employed to estimate incidence rates and the significance of candidate predictors. RESULTS The progression rate from ASD to schizophrenia was 10.26% for 10 years of follow-up. Among 860 progressors, 580 (67.44%) occurred within the first 3 years after a diagnosis of ASD. The identified predictors were age (reported as hazard ratio with 95% confidence interval: 1.13; 1.11-1.15), depressive disorder (1.36; 1.09-1.69), alcohol use disorder (3.05; 2.14-4.35), substance use disorder (1.91; 1.18-3.09), cluster A personality disorder (2.95; 1.79-4.84), cluster B personality disorder (1.86; 1.05-3.28), and a family history of schizophrenia (2.12; 1.65-2.74). CONCLUSION More than two-thirds of the progressors developed schizophrenia within the first 3 years. Demographic characteristics, physical and psychiatric comorbidities, and psychiatric family history were significant predictors of progression.

Rothenberger A, Heinrich H. Co-Occurrence of Tic Disorders and Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder-Does It Reflect a Common Neurobiological Background? Biomedicines 2022; 10:biomedicines10112950. [PMID: 36428518 PMCID: PMC9687745 DOI: 10.3390/biomedicines10112950] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/21/2022] [Revised: 11/06/2022] [Accepted: 11/09/2022] [Indexed: 11/18/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The co-existence of tic disorders and attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (TD + ADHD) has proven to be highly important in daily clinical practice. The factor ADHD is not only associated with further comorbidities, but also has a long-term negative psychosocial effect, while the factor TD is usually less disturbing for the major part of the patients. It remains unclear how far this is related to a different neurobiological background of the associated disorders or whether TD + ADHD reflects a common one. OBJECTIVE This review provides an update on the neurobiological background of TD + ADHD in order to better understand and treat this clinical problem, while clarifying whether an additive model of TD + ADHD holds true and should be used as a basis for further clinical recommendations. METHOD A comprehensive research of the literature was conducted and analyzed, including existing clinical guidelines for both TD and ADHD. Besides genetical and environmental risk factors, brain structure and functions, neurophysiological processes and neurotransmitter systems were reviewed. RESULTS Only a limited number of empirical studies on the neurobiological background of TD and ADHD have taken the peculiarity of co-existing TD + ADHD into consideration, and even less studies have used a 2 × 2 factorial design in order to disentangle the impact/effects of the factors of TD versus those of ADHD. Nevertheless, the assumption that TD + ADHD can best be seen as an additive model at all levels of investigation was strengthened, although some overlap of more general, disorder non-specific aspects seem to exist. CONCLUSION Beyond stress-related transdiagnostic aspects, separate specific disturbances in certain neuronal circuits may lead to disorder-related symptoms inducing TD + ADHD in an additive way. Hence, within a classificatory categorical framework, the dimensional aspects of multilevel diagnostic-profiling seem to be a helpful precondition for personalized decisions on counselling and disorder-specific treatment in TD + ADHD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The annual cut-off birthdate for entry into school in Taiwan is August 31. Thus, children and adolescents born in August are typically the youngest in their grades. The potential effect of relative age on the diagnosis of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) remains uncertain. METHODS A total of 9,548,393 individuals aged 3-17 years during the study period (from September 1, 2001, to August 31, 2011) identified from the Taiwan National Health Insurance Research Database were enrolled into our study. Logistic regression analysis was used to examine the likelihood of receiving ASD diagnosis for those who were born in August (the youngest) compared with those who were born in September (the oldest). RESULTS Both boys and girls born in August had a higher likelihood of being diagnosed with ASD (odds ratio [OR]: 1.24, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.16-1.32; OR: 1.23, 95% CI 1.06-1.42) than did those born in September. Sensitivity analysis conducted over different periods revealed consistent findings. DISCUSSION Relative age, as an indicator of neurocognitive maturity, is a crucial contributor to the risk of being diagnosed with ASD among children and adolescents. Our findings highlight the importance of considering the age of a child within a grade when diagnosing ASD.

INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH AND PUBLIC HEALTH 2022; 19:ijerph19148739. [PMID: 35886592 PMCID: PMC9316003 DOI: 10.3390/ijerph19148739] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/31/2022] [Revised: 07/10/2022] [Accepted: 07/12/2022] [Indexed: 11/29/2022]
Abstract
Background: To investigate the association between proton pump inhibitor (PPI) exposure and a risk of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) among patients with upper gastrointestinal disease (UGID). Method: We conducted a case−control study from Taiwan’s National Health Insurance Research Database between 1998 and 2013. A total of 20,940 patients with T2DM and 20,940 controls were included. The dose of PPIs was categorized according to the cumulative defined daily dose (cDDD). The risk of T2DM was assessed using conditional logistic regression analysis. Result: Compared with cDDD ≤ 30, higher dosage of PPI exposure was associated with an increased risk of T2DM development: cDDD 31−120 (odds ratio [OR]: 1.20, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.13−1.26); cDDD 121−365 (OR: 1.26, 95% CI: 1.19−1.33); and cDDD > 365 (OR: 1.34, 95% CI: 1.23−1.46). Subgroup analysis of individual PPI showed that pantoprazole (OR: 1.14, 95% CI: 1.07−1.21), lansoprazole (OR: 1.08, 95% CI: 1.03−1.12), and omeprazole (OR: 1.11, 95% CI: 1.06−1.16) have a significantly higher risk of T2DM development. Conclusions: A dose-dependent increased risk of T2DM was found among patients with UGID using higher doses of PPIs compared with those with lower doses of these drugs. Further studies are necessary to investigate the underlying pathophysiology of PPIs and T2DM.

Abstract
Evidence suggests a continuity between obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) and schizophrenia. However, the factors that may predict diagnostic progression from OCD to schizophrenia remain unclear. A total of 35,255 adolescents and adults with OCD (ICD-9-CM code: 300.3) were enrolled between 2001 and 2010 and followed up at the end of 2011 for the identification of de novo schizophrenia (ICD-9-CM code: 295). The Kaplan-Meier method was used to estimate incidence rates, and the Cox regression was used to determine the significance of candidate predictors. At the end of the 11-year follow-up period, the crude cumulative progression rate from OCD to schizophrenia was 6%, and the estimated progression rate totaled 7.80%. Male sex (hazard ratio: 1.23), obesity (1.77), autism spectrum disorder (1.69), bipolar disorder (1.69), posttraumatic stress disorder (1.65), cluster A personality disorder (2.50), and a family history of schizophrenia (2.57) also were related to an elevated likelihood of subsequent progression to schizophrenia in patients with OCD. Further study is necessary to elucidate the exact pathomechanisms underlying diagnostic progression to schizophrenia in patients with OCD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The temporal association between type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) and major psychiatric disorders, including schizophrenia, major affective disorder, autism spectrum disorder (ASD), and attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), remains elusive. METHODS The specialized databases of catastrophic diseases and mental disorders and the longitudinal health insurance database of Taiwan National Health Insurance Research Database were used in current study. A total of 6,226 patients with T1DM and 62,260 age- and sex-matched controls were recruited between 2001 and 2010 and were followed until the end of 2011 for the identification of diagnoses of schizophrenia (International Classification of Clinical Diseases, Ninth Edition, Clinical Modification [ICD-9-CM] code: 295), bipolar disorder (ICD-9-CM codes: 296 except 296.2x, 296.3x, 296.9x, and 296.82), major depressive disorder (ICD-9-CM codes: 296.2x and 296.3x), ASD (ICD-9-CM code: 299), and ADHD (ICD-9-CM code: 314). RESULTS Cox regression analysis revealed increased hazard ratios of schizophrenia (12.28), bipolar disorder (13.80), major depressive disorder (10.41), ASD (14.52), and ADHD (8.19) in patients with T1DM compared with controls. DISCUSSION Our findings indicate the importance of clinicians closely monitoring the mental health condition of children, adolescents, and adults with T1DM. Additional studies should be conducted to elucidate the definite pathomechanisms of comorbidities between T1DM and major psychiatric disorders.

Abstract
OBJECT To investigate the distribution characteristics of gut microbiota in children with tic disorder (TD) and the possible role of these characteristics in the pathogenesis of TD. METHODS The medical records of 28 children with TD treated at Wuxi Children's Hospital from January 1 to October 31, 2020, and 21 age-matched healthy children (controls) were included. The relative quantification of bacterial taxa was performed using 16S ribosomal RNA gene amplicon sequencing. RESULTS There was no significant difference in the alpha diversity of gut microbiota between the TD and control groups. Analyses of beta diversity were able to differentiate the TD patients from the healthy controls based on their gut microbiota. At the phylum level, the two groups were mainly composed of four phyla, Firmicutes, Actinobacteria, Bacteroidetes, and Proteobacteria. There were significant differences in Firmicutes and Actinobacteria between the two groups (P <0.05). At the level of genera, the abundance of Bifidobacterium and Collinsella reduced while that of Ruminococcaceae unclassified, Prevotella, Faecalibacterium, Coprobacillus, and Odoribacter increased in the TD group compared to that in the control group. The intergroup differences were significant (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION The abnormal composition of gut microbiota in children with TD suggests that the change in gut microbiota may play an important role in TD development.

Abstract
This systematic review aims to 1) explore the association between tic disorders (TD) and allergic diseases (AD), 2) judge whether patients with a diagnosis of TD are prone to suffer from a specific AD, by compiling the literature and analyzing the evidence. A literature search was conducted in PubMed and Embase database on February 24, 2021. The inclusion criteria for the literature were all comparative studies that reported TD patients were diagnosed with allergic illness as well. We identified that TD is positively associated with asthma, allergic rhinitis and allergic conjunctivitis, respectively. Especially, provisional tic disorder (PTD) patients might be more likely to suffer from these three AD, although it is still difficult to accurately predict which specific AD is prone to be accompanied by a specific TD. Shared genetic and etiological factors are suggested responsible for the AD-TD association. Large prospective cohort studies in future might shed light on a deep understanding of the relationship between immune disorders and tics.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE We investigated the diagnostic progression to bipolar disorder (BD) among adolescents and young adults with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). METHODS Using the Taiwan National Health Insurance Research Database, we enrolled adolescents and young adults aged 10-29 years with ADHD between January 1, 2001, and December 31, 2010, who were followed up until December 31, 2011, to determine progression to BD. Cox regression analysis was used to examine candidate risk and protective factors. RESULTS At the 11-year follow-up, the progression rate from ADHD to BD was 5.12%. Of the participants who progressed, 62.16% (322/518) progressed within the first 3 years. Risk factors for progression were as follows: older age (hazard ratio [HR], 1.058; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.033-1.084), comorbidity with autistic spectrum disorder (HR, 1.839; 95% CI, 1.415-2.391), disruptive behavior disorder (HR, 1.434; 95% CI, 1.132-1.816), intelligence disability (HR, 1.744; 95% CI, 1.399-2.176), depressive disorder (HR, 1.978; 95% CI, 1.577-2.482), alcohol use disorder (HR, 1.705; 95% CI, 1.057-2.751), cluster A (HR, 2.508; 95% CI, 1.167-5.391) or B (HR, 2.718; 95% CI, 1.974-3.741) personality disorder, and a family history of BD (HR, 2.618; 95% CI, 1.823-3.758) Identified protective factors were male sex (HR, 0.771; 95% CI, 0.630-0.943) and cluster C personality disorder (HR, 0.278; 95% CI, 0.086-0.898). CONCLUSION The study demonstrated the specific risk and protective factors for BD progression among adolescents and young adults with ADHD. It is important for clinician and mental health care providers to recognize identified factors to focus on early detection and prompt intervention.

Brain Behav Immun 2021; 97:22-31. [PMID: 34022373 DOI: 10.1016/j.bbi.2021.05.015] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/18/2021] [Revised: 04/23/2021] [Accepted: 05/17/2021] [Indexed: 11/29/2022] Open
Abstract
Inappropriate synaptic development has been proposed as a potential mechanism of neurodevelopmental disorders, including attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Major histocompatibility complex class I (MHCI), an immunity-associated molecule expressed by neurons in the brain, regulates synaptic development; however, the involvement of MHCI in these disorders remains elusive. We evaluated whether functional MHCI deficiency induced by β2m-/-Tap1-/- double-knockout in mice leads to abnormalities akin to those seen in neurodevelopmental disorders. We found that functional MHCI deficiency induced locomotor hyperactivity, motor impulsivity, and attention deficits, three major symptoms of ADHD. In contrast, these mice showed normal spatial learning, behavioral flexibility, social behavior, and sensorimotor integration. In the analysis of the dopamine system, upregulation of dopamine D1 receptor (D1R) expression in the nucleus accumbens and a greater locomotor response to D1R agonist SKF 81297 were found in the functional MHCI-deficient mice. Low-dose methylphenidate, used for the treatment of ADHD patients, alleviated the three behavioral symptoms and suppressed c-Fos expression in the D1R-expressing medium spiny neurons of the mice. These findings reveal an unexpected role of MHCI in three major symptoms of ADHD and may provide a novel landmark in the pathogenesis of ADHD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) are among the most widely used drugs. Little is known about the association between PPI use and risk of psoriasis. OBJECTIVE To investigate the association between PPI use and subsequent psoriasis risk. METHODS We included participants from the Taiwan National Health Insurance Research Database. Patients with PPI use and an incidence of psoriasis (n = 5,756) were assigned to the case cohort and 1:1 matched to controls. PPI use was defined as >30 cumulative defined daily doses (cDDDs); PPI nonuse was defined as ≤30 cDDDs. Logistic regression was used for the analyses. RESULTS There was a significant association between PPI use and psoriasis risk. The confounder-adjusted odd ratios (95% confidence interval [CI]) were 1.52 (1.31-1.76) and 1.54 (1.22-1.93) for patients with 120-365 cDDDs and >365 cDDDs, respectively, compared with PPI nonusers. Stratified analyses based on PPI type showed that exposure to lansoprazole (OR, 1.25; 95% CI, 1.11-1.41) was associated with subsequent psoriasis risk. CONCLUSIONS PPI use might be associated with an increased risk of developing psoriasis or as an epiphenomenon. Further prospective studies are needed to elucidate the association and underlying mechanisms.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The effect of relative age on the diagnoses of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), disruptive behavior disorder (DD), anxiety disorder, and depressive disorder and the prescription for ADHD and antidepressant medications remains unclear. AIM To clarify the impact of relative age in a school year with the diagnoses of ADHD, DD, anxiety disorder, and depressive disorder and the prescription for ADHD and antidepressant medications. METHODS The annual cutoff birthdate for entry to school in Taiwan is August 31. The Taiwan National Health Insurance Research Database was used to enroll 9,548,393 children and adolescents aged 3-17 years during the study period (September 1, 2001, to August 31, 2011). The Poisson regression model was performed to examine the likelihood of receiving diagnoses of ADHD, DD, anxiety disorder, and depressive disorder, as well as the prescription of ADHD and antidepressant medications among children born in August (the youngest) and September (the oldest). RESULTS Both boys and girls born in August had a higher risk of being diagnosed as having ADHD (odds ratio [OR] = boys: 1.65, girls: 1.80), DD (1.29, 1.45), anxiety disorder (1.49, 1.33), and depressive disorder (1.10, 1.10). Furthermore, children born in August were more likely to be prescribed ADHD medication (1.71, 1.72) and antidepressants (1.18, 1.09) compared with those born in September. DISCUSSION Relative age, as an indicator of neurocognitive maturity, is a critical factor for the likelihood of being diagnosed as having ADHD, DD, anxiety disorder, and depressive disorder among children and adolescents.

Abstract
Tic disorders (TD) are childhood-onset neurological disorders. Immune system dysregulation has been postulated to play a role in TD, and its mechanisms likely involve dysfunctional neural-immune cross-talk, which ultimately leads to altered maturation of the brain pathways that control different TD clinical manifestations and behavioral and emotional damages. Clinical studies have demonstrated an association between TD and allergies and overactive immune responses at a systemic level. In this study, the Yale Global Tic Severity Scale was taken as a global measure of tic severity. Compared with the control group, the group of children with TD plus allergic diseases displayed significantly increased Yale total scores (p<0.05), which suggests that children with TD plus allergic diseases have heavier tic symptoms. Both motor and vocal tic scores are higher in the group of children with TD plus allergy compared with the control group. We counted immune cell subpopulations using FACS. T lymphocyte subset comparison of CD3, CD4, CD8, and CD4:CD8 expression ratios revealed that the level of CD3, CD4, and CD4:CD8 in children with TD plus allergic diseases was significantly lower than those of children with TD without allergic diseases. These differences were statistically significant (p<0.05) and suggest that children with TD plus allergic diseases have imbalanced T lymphocyte subsets. We concluded that allergy increased the severity of TD through an imbalance in cellular immunity. Studies need to be done to show whether treatment of allergic symptoms leads to a decrease in TD manifestations.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Whether the first-degree relatives (FDRs) of patients with obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) have an increased risk of the major psychiatric disorders, namely schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, OCD, major depressive disorder (MDD), autism spectrum disorder (ASD), and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), remains unclear. METHODS Using the Taiwan National Health Insurance Research Database with the whole population sample size (n = 23 258 175), 89 500 FDRs, including parents, offspring, siblings, and twins, of patients with OCD were identified in our study. The relative risks (RRs) of major psychiatric disorders were assessed among FDRs of patients with OCD. RESULTS FDRs of patients with OCD had higher RRs of major psychiatric disorders, namely OCD (RR 8.11, 95% confidence interval (CI) 7.68-8.57), bipolar disorder (RR 2.85, 95% CI 2.68-3.04), MDD (RR 2.67, 95% CI 2.58-2.76), ASD (RR 2.38, 95% CI 2.10-2.71), ADHD (RR 2.19, 95% CI 2.07-2.32), and schizophrenia (RR 1.97, 95% CI 1.86-2.09), compared with the total population. Different familial kinships of FDRs, such as parents, offspring, siblings, and twins consistently had increased risks for these disorders. In addition, a dose-dependent relationship was found between the numbers of OCD probands and the risk of each major psychiatric disorder. CONCLUSIONS The FDRs, including parents, offspring, siblings, and twins, of patients with OCD have a higher risk of OCD, schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, MDD, ADHD, and ASD. The familial co-aggregation of OCD with OCD and other major psychiatric disorders was existent in a dose-dependent manner. Given the increased risks of psychiatric disorders, medical practitioners should closely monitor the mental health of the FDRs of patients with OCD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Studies have indicated that parental depression was slightly related to the increased risk of offspring attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and autism spectrum disorder (ASD). However, the association between exposure to parental depression at different neurodevelopmental stages (i.e., perinatal or postnatal period) and subsequent ADHD and ASD development remained uncertain. METHOD 708,515 children born between 2001 and 2008 were screened for ADHD and ASD based on ICD-9-CM codes of 314 and 299 given by psychiatrists from their birth to the end of 2011. Paternal and maternal depression was separately assessed during five periods, namely those before pregnancy (pre-pregnancy), during pregnancy (perinatal), and <1, 1-3, and >3 years after childbirth (postnatal). Cox regression analyses were performed. RESULTS Both paternal and maternal depression occurring in the pre-pregnancy, perinatal and postnatal periods were significantly associated with subsequent ADHD and ASD in the offspring, with hazard ratios between 1.42 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.35-1.49) and 2.25 (2.09-2.41). The chronicity and additive effect of paternal and maternal depression were related to increased risks of offspring ADHD and ASD. The effects of maternal depression were stronger than the effects of paternal depression for offspring ADHD (HR: 1.35, 95% CI: 1.27-1.45) and ASD (HR: 1.23, 95% CI: 1.05-1.46) risks. CONCLUSION Both paternal depression and maternal depression in the pre-pregnancy, perinatal and postnatal periods increases offspring ADHD and ASD risks, and these risks increase further with increases in the duration of parental depression and with the additive effect of parental and maternal depression.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Several studies suggested a potential role of viral infection in the pathophysiology of Parkinson's disease (PD). However, the association between herpes zoster and PD was not investigated well till now. METHODS Using the Taiwan National Health Insurance Research Database, 13 083 patients aged ≥45 years with herpes zoster and 52 332 (1:4) age-/sex-matched controls were enrolled between 1998 and 2008 and followed to the end of 2011. Those who developed PD during the follow-up period were identified. RESULTS The Cox regression analysis with adjustment of demographic characteristics, health system utilization, and comorbidities demonstrated that patients with herpes zoster had an increased risk (hazard ratio [HR]: 1.80, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.43-2.28) of developing PD in later life compared to the control group. Sensitivity tests after excluding the first year (HR: 1.50, 95% CI: 1.16-1.93) and first 2-year (HR: 1.44, 95% CI: 1.10-1.88) observation periods showed consistent results. CONCLUSIONS Patients with herpes zoster were more likely to develop PD in later life compared to the controls. Additional studies are necessary for validating our results and to clarify the underlying pathophysiology between herpes zoster and PD.

Abstract
Current knowledge on the general somatic health and causes of death in Tourette syndrome and chronic tic disorder is very limited. Here, we review the available literature on the topic, while highlighting strengths and weaknesses of the studies conducted to date. These previous works have suggested associations between Tourette syndrome and chronic tic disorder and a range of health conditions, including autoimmune disorders, common allergies and respiratory diseases, sleep difficulties, and metabolic and cardiovascular outcomes. Additionally, the risk of mortality in tic disorders might be higher than that of the general population, but specific causes of death have rarely been studied, except for substance use-related deaths and suicide, which are significantly higher in individuals with Tourette syndrome and chronic tic disorder. Many of these emerging findings require replication and extension but, taken together, they suggest that that it might be sensible to monitor the general health and suicide risk of individuals with Tourette syndrome or chronic tic disorder across the lifespan. We suggest further avenues for research on this topic.

Abstract
Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a neurodevelopmental disorder of childhood. Although abnormalities in several brain regions and disturbances of the catecholaminergic pathway have been demonstrated, the pathophysiology of ADHD is not completely understood, but as a multifactorial disorder, has been associated with an increase in oxidative stress and neuroinflammation. This review presents an overview of factors that increase oxidative stress and neuroinflammation. The imbalance between oxidants and antioxidants and also the treatment with medications are two factors that can increase oxidative damage, whereas the comorbidity between ADHD and inflammatory disorders, altered immune response, genetic and environmental associations, and polymorphisms in inflammatory-related genes can increase neuroinflammation. Evidence of an association with these factors has become valuable for research on ADHD. Such evidence opens up new intervention routes for the use of natural products as antioxidants that could have potential as a treatment against oxidative stress and neuroinflammation in ADHD.

Abstract
Smoking has been identified as a risk factor for atopic dermatitis and hand eczema, but less is known about the association of exposure to second-hand smoke (SHS) with hand eczema. The study aimed to investigate the association of SHS exposure with hand eczema and atopic dermatitis in a group of adolescents. We conducted a cross-sectional study among first-year college students. SHS exposure was measured by a self-administered questionnaire. Skin diseases were diagnosed by dermatologists in the field survey. Mixed models were used to estimate the associations. A total of 20,129 participants that underwent skin examination and a questionnaire survey were included in the analyses. The prevalence rates of atopic dermatitis and hand eczema were 3.86% and 3.35%, respectively. Crude and adjusted estimates consistently showed that exposure to SHS was significantly associated with atopic dermatitis and hand eczema in a dose–response manner. Attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder mediated minimal or no effect of SHS on hand eczema and atopic dermatitis. Subgroup analysis by type of hand eczema, and sensitivity analysis by excluding data with center effect showed consistent results. Exposure to SHS is an independent but modifiable risk factor for hand eczema and atopic dermatitis in adolescents.

[PMID: 33041996 PMCID: PMC7525089 DOI: 10.3389/fneur.2020.567407] [Citation(s) in RCA: 26] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/29/2020] [Accepted: 08/20/2020] [Indexed: 12/20/2022] Open
Abstract
Objective: The goal of this article is to review the past decade's literature and provide a critical commentary on the involvement of immunological mechanisms in normal brain development, as well as its role in the pathophysiology of Tourette syndrome, other Chronic tic disorders (CTD), and related neuropsychiatric disorders including Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) and Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Methods: We conducted a literature search using the Medline/PubMed and EMBASE electronic databases to locate relevant articles and abstracts published between 2009 and 2020, using a comprehensive list of search terms related to immune mechanisms and the diseases of interest, including both clinical and animal model studies. Results: The cellular and molecular processes that constitute our "immune system" are crucial to normal brain development and the formation and maintenance of neural circuits. It is also increasingly evident that innate and adaptive systemic immune pathways, as well as neuroinflammatory mechanisms, play an important role in the pathobiology of at least a subset of individuals with Tourette syndrome and related neuropsychiatric disorders In the conceptual framework of the holobiont theory, emerging evidence points also to the importance of the "microbiota-gut-brain axis" in the pathobiology of these neurodevelopmental disorders. Conclusions: Neural development is an enormously complex and dynamic process. Immunological pathways are implicated in several early neurodevelopmental processes including the formation and refinement of neural circuits. Hyper-reactivity of systemic immune pathways and neuroinflammation may contribute to the natural fluctuations of the core behavioral features of CTD, OCD, and ADHD. There is still limited knowledge of the efficacy of direct and indirect (i.e., through environmental modifications) immune-modulatory interventions in the treatment of these disorders. Future research also needs to focus on the key molecular pathways through which dysbiosis of different tissue microbiota influence neuroimmune interactions in these disorders, and how microbiota modification could modify their natural history. It is also possible that valid biomarkers will emerge that will guide a more personalized approach to the treatment of these disorders.

Abstract
Studies have suggested an association between metabolic and cerebrocardiovascular diseases and major depressive disorder (MDD). However, the risk of metabolic and cerebrocardiovascular diseases in the unaffected siblings of patients with MDD remains uncertain. Using the Taiwan National Health Insurance Research Database, 22,438 unaffected siblings of patients with MDD and 89,752 age-/sex-matched controls were selected and followed up from 1996 to the end of 2011. Individuals who developed metabolic and cerebrocardiovascular diseases during the follow-up period were identified. Compared with the controls, the unaffected siblings of patients with MDD had a higher prevalence of metabolic diseases, such as hypertension (5.0% vs. 4.5%, p = 0.007), dyslipidemia (5.6% vs. 4.8%, p < 0.001), and obesity (1.7% vs. 1.5%, p = 0.028), and cerebrocardiovascular diseases, such as ischemic stroke (0.6% vs. 0.4%, p < 0.005) and ischemic heart disease (2.1% vs. 1.7%, p < 0.001). Logistic regression analyses revealed that the unaffected siblings of patients with MDD were more likely to develop hypertension, dyslipidemia, ischemic stroke, and ischemic heart diseases during the follow-up period than the controls. Our study revealed a familial coaggregation between MDD and metabolic and cerebrocardiovascular diseases. Additional studies are required to investigate the shared pathophysiology of MDD and metabolic and cerebrocardiovascular diseases.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Studies have suggested that psychiatric comorbidities have major effects on antidepressant resistance in adult patients with major depressive disorder (MDD). However, the association between psychiatric comorbidities and antidepressant resistance remains unclear in adolescents with MDD. METHODS A total of 10,624 adolescents with MDD were selected from the Taiwan National Health Insurance Research Database between 2001 and 2010 and followed for one year. Treatment-resistant depression (TRD) was defined as unresponsiveness to at least two antidepressants, and treatment resistant tendency was defined as unresponsiveness to the first antidepressant. Psychiatric comorbidities, such as anxiety disorders, substance use disorders, and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), were assessed as confounding factors. RESULTS In our study, only 1.7% (n = 184) of adolescents with MDD met the TRD criteria but 23.3% (n = 2480) were classified as exhibiting treatment resistant tendency. Anxiety disorders (OR: 2.34, 95% CI: 1.73-3.16) and substance use disorders (OR: 2.41, 95% CI: 1.28-4.54) exhibited a correlation with TRD, and ADHD (OR: 1.34, 95% CI: 1.08-1.66) was associated with treatment resistant tendency. CONCLUSIONS Approximately one-fourth of adolescents with MDD respond poorly to the first antidepressant treatment. The psychiatric comorbidities of anxiety disorders, substance use disorders, and ADHD may increase the risk of treatment resistance in adolescents with MDD.

Abstract
Objectives: Although tic disorder (TD) is a common mental disorder in children and adolescents, epidemiological data based on real-world evidence (RWE) are insufficient. Using RWE, this study sought to examine the prevalence of treated TD, use of medical utilization, and use of prescription drugs among patients with TD with respect to TD type and comorbid psychiatric illness. Methods: We performed a retrospective cross-sectional study. Using the Korean Health Insurance Review and Assessment Service Pediatric Patient Sample data from 2009 to 2016, we analyzed 20,599 patients with TD (Korean Standard Classification of Diseases-6/7 code: F95.x) aged 2-19 years. Results: The annual average TD prevalence was 2.6/1000 population (95% confidence interval, 2.3-2.8/1000). Between 2009 and 2016, a slight increase in TD prevalence was observed from 1.9 to 2.9/1000 population. The TD prevalence rate in male patients was four times higher than that in female patients. Differences were observed in health care utilization and drug prescription types between patients with Tourette syndrome and chronic or transient TD. In addition, more than half of patients with TD had comorbid psychiatric disorders, and one-third of patients with TD had attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Patients with TD without comorbidities were frequently prescribed aripiprazole, while patients with TD and comorbid ADHD were frequently prescribed atomoxetine, methylphenidate, risperidone, and aripiprazole. Conclusion: This study described the epidemiological characteristics of TD based on recent RWE from Korea, and its findings can help establish future TD evidence-based clinical guidelines and related policies.

Abstract
The latest research cumulates staggering information about the correlation between the microbiota-gut-brain axis and neurodevelopmental disorders. This review aims to shed light on the potential influence of the microbiome on the development of the most prevalent neurodevelopmental disease, attention-deficit-hyperactive disorder (ADHD). As the etiology and pathophysiology of ADHD are still unclear, finding viable biomarkers and effective treatment still represent a challenge. Therefore, we focused on factors that have been associated with a higher risk of developing ADHD, while simultaneously influencing the microbial composition. We reviewed the effect of a differing microbial makeup on neurotransmitter concentrations important in the pathophysiology of ADHD. Additionally, we deduced factors that correlate with a high prevalence of ADHD, while simultaneously affecting the gut microbiome, such as emergency c-sections, and premature birth as the former leads to a decrease of the gut microbial diversity and the latter causes neuroprotective Lactobacillus levels to be reduced. Also, we assessed nutritional influences, such as breastfeeding, ingestion of short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) and polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) on the host′s microbiome and development of ADHD. Finally, we discussed the potential significance of Bifidobacterium as a biomarker for ADHD, the importance of preventing premature birth as prophylaxis and nutrition as a prospective therapeutic measurement against ADHD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Bipolar disorder is a highly heritable mental illness that transmits intergeneratively. Previous studies supported that first-degree relatives (FDRs), such as parents, offspring, and siblings, of patients with bipolar disorder, had a higher risk of bipolar disorder. However, whether FDRs of bipolar patients have an increased risk of schizophrenia, major depressive disorder (MDD), autism spectrum disorder (ASD), and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) remains unclear. METHODS Among the entire population in Taiwan, 87 639 patients with bipolar disorder and 188 290 FDRs of patients with bipolar disorder were identified in our study. The relative risks (RRs) of major psychiatric disorders were assessed among FDRs of patients with bipolar disorder. RESULTS FDRs of patients with bipolar disorder were more likely to have a higher risk of major psychiatric disorders, including bipolar disorder (RR 6.12, 95% confidence interval (CI) 5.95-6.30), MDD (RR 2.89, 95% CI 2.82-2.96), schizophrenia (RR 2.64, 95% CI 2.55-2.73), ADHD (RR 2.21, 95% CI 2.13-2.30), and ASD (RR 2.10, 95% CI 1.92-2.29), than the total population did. These increased risks for major psychiatric disorders were consistent across different familial kinships, such as parents, offspring, siblings, and twins. A dose-dependent relationship was also found between risk of each major psychiatric disorder and numbers of bipolar patients. CONCLUSIONS Our study was the first study to support the familial coaggregation of bipolar disorder with other major psychiatric disorders, including schizophrenia, MDD, ADHD, and ASD, in a Taiwanese (non-Caucasian) population. Given the elevated risks of major psychiatric disorders, the public health government should pay more attention to the mental health of FDRs of patients with bipolar disorder.

Abstract
BACKGROUND To investigate the relationship between symptom of attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and allergic rhinitis (AR) in AR children of different genders and ages. METHODS Four hundred and sixty-five allergic rhinitis children aged 6-12 years old were recruited in this study. Skin-prick test, Pediatric Rhinoconjunctivitis Quality of Life Questionnaire (PRQLQ), Total Nasal Symptoms Score (TNSS) and the Swanson, Nolan, and Pelham version IV scale (SNAP-IV) were recorded. Patients were divided into AR with ADHD and AR without ADHD, according to the SNAP-IV scale results. RESULTS Children with the inattention/hyperactivity scale (IHS) > 1.25 accounted for 26.4% of all children with AR. The TNSS with IHS > 1.25 group were significantly higher than the IHS ≤ 1.25 group. Univariate analysis showed that age, gender, duration of AR symptoms, skin index, and PRQLQ subscales were associated with symptoms of hyperactivity and attention deficit (IHS > 1.25). After normalizing the age and gender factors, duration of AR symptoms and skin index correlated with IHS > 1.25. After stratifying age and gender, the correlation between IHS > 1.25 and skin index and PRQLQ subscales was mainly found in male children, and the association between the duration of AR symptoms and IHS > 1.25 was reflected in each group. CONCLUSIONS ADHD in children with AR is associated with severity, duration, and skin index of AR, and this association is more pronounced in male children.

J Affect Disord 2019; 253:171-175. [PMID: 31035218 DOI: 10.1016/j.jad.2019.04.094] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/19/2019] [Revised: 04/16/2019] [Accepted: 04/21/2019] [Indexed: 10/27/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Cardiometabolic diseases are suggested to be associated with bipolar disorder. However, the risk of metabolic disorders in unaffected siblings of patients with bipolar disorder remains unclear. METHODS From the Taiwan National Health Insurance Research Database, 7,225 unaffected siblings of bipolar probands and 28,900 age-/sex-/income-/residence-matched control individuals were included and followed until the end of 2011. Individuals who developed metabolic disorders during the follow-up period were identified. RESULTS The unaffected siblings of bipolar probands had a higher prevalence of dyslipidemia (5.4% vs. 4.5%, p = 0.001), younger age at diagnosis of type 2 diabetes mellitus (34.81 vs. 37.22, p = 0.024), and higher prevalence of any stroke (1.5% vs. 1.1%, p = 0.007) than the controls. Moreover, only male siblings of bipolar probands had an increased risk of dyslipidemia (odds ratio [OR]: 1.28, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.10-1.48) and higher rates of any stroke (OR: 1.38, 95% CI: 1.02-1.85) and ischemic stroke (OR: 2.43, 95% CI: 1.60-3.70) during the follow-up compared with the controls. DISCUSSION Unaffected siblings of bipolar patients, particularly brothers, had a higher prevalence of dyslipidemia and ischemic stroke compared with the controls. The result suggests the familial association between cardiometabolic diseases and bipolar disorder. Further research may be necessary to identify this shared etiology between the disorders.

Oxidative stress and immune aberrancies in attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD): a case-control comparison. Eur Child Adolesc Psychiatry 2019; 28:719-729. [PMID: 30350094 DOI: 10.1007/s00787-018-1239-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 34] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/15/2018] [Accepted: 10/13/2018] [Indexed: 02/02/2023]
Abstract
The objective of this study is to compare oxidative stress and immune biomarkers between attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) patients and controls without ADHD. A case-control comparison between 57 paediatric (6-12 years) untreated ADHD patients from the Antwerp University Hospital and 69 controls without ADHD from random schools in Flanders, Belgium, was conducted. Erythrocyte glutathione (GSH) and plasma lipid-soluble antioxidants (retinol, α-tocopherol, γ-tocopherol, retinyl palmitate, β-carotene, and co-enzyme Q10) were determined by HPLC with electrochemical detection, plasma malondialdehyde (MDA) by HPLC with fluorescence detection, plasma cytokines (interleukin (IL)-1β, IL-5, IL-6, IL-8, IL-10, tumour necrosis factor (TNF) and interferon (INF)-γ) and immunoglobulins (IgE, IgG and IgM) by flow cytometry and urinary 8-hydroxy-2'deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) levels by ELISA assay. Dietary habits were determined by a food frequency questionnaire. Plasma MDA levels were on average 0.031 µM higher in patients than in controls (p < 0.05), and a trend for higher urinary 8-OHdG was observed. Erythrocyte GSH and plasma retinyl palmitate levels, as well as IgG and IgE levels, were higher in patients than in controls as well (on average 93.707 µg/ml, 0.006 µg/ml, 301.555 µg/ml and 125.004 µg/ml, resp., p < 0.05). Finally, a trend for lower plasma IL-5 levels was observed. After Bonferroni correction for multiple testing, the difference in GSH levels remained statistically significant (nominally significant for retinyl palmitate), while significance was lost for MDA, IgG and IgE levels. Dietary habits do not appear to cause the observed differences. These results point at the potential involvement of slight oxidative stress and immune disturbances in ADHD.

Abstract
The consequences of atopic dermatitis reach beyond the skin and past childhood. Patients with atopic dermatitis are at risk of developing allergic comorbidities, but less is known about the associations between atopic dermatitis and non-allergic conditions. Understanding these non-allergic comorbidities has the potential to improve patient outcomes and to help mitigate the cost and burdens associated with these conditions. Atopic dermatitis is associated with cutaneous bacterial infections, more severe forms/courses of cutaneous viral infections, and extra-cutaneous infections. Atopic dermatitis is also associated with several mental health comorbidities particularly attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder, anxiety, and depression. Data are largely inconsistent for specific cancers, but atopic dermatitis appears to protect against malignancy overall; severe long-term atopic dermatitis is associated with adult lymphomas. Atopic dermatitis may also be associated with obesity, cardiovascular disease, and autoimmune disease, particularly alopecia areata and gastrointestinal immune-mediated disorders. Although the causative mechanisms underlying these associations are poorly understood, treating physicians should be aware of associations in seeking to alleviate the burden for patients with atopic dermatitis.
