Abstract
BACKGROUND Distinct oral atypical antipsychotics have different effects on autonomic nervous system (ANS) activity. Among them, oral aripiprazole has been linked to dysfunction of the ANS in schizophrenia. Long-acting injectable aripiprazole is a major treatment option for schizophrenia, but the effect of the aripiprazole formulation on ANS activity remains unclear. In this study, we compared ANS activity between oral aripiprazole and aripiprazole once-monthly (AOM) in schizophrenia. METHODS Of the 122 patients with schizophrenia who participated in this study, 72 received oral aripiprazole and 50 received AOM as monotherapy. We used power spectral analysis of heart rate variability to assess ANS activity. RESULTS Patients who received oral aripiprazole showed significantly diminished sympathetic nervous activity compared with those who received AOM. Multiple regression analysis revealed that the aripiprazole formulation significantly influenced sympathetic nervous activity. CONCLUSION Compared with oral aripiprazole, AOM appears to have fewer adverse effects, such as sympathetic nervous dysfunction.

Abstract
Introduction
Conventional treatment guidelines of schizophrenia do not necessarily provide solutions on clinically important issues.
Methods
A total of 141 certified psychiatrists of the Japanese Society of Clinical Neuropsychopharmacology evaluated treatment options regarding 19 clinically relevant situations in the treatment of schizophrenia with a 9-point scale (1=“disagree” and 9=“agree”).
Results
First-line antipsychotics varied depending on predominant symptoms: risperidone (mean±standard deviation score, 7.9±1.4), olanzapine (7.5±1.6), and aripiprazole (6.9±1.9) were more likely selected for positive symptoms; aripiprazole (7.6±1.6) for negative symptoms; aripiprazole (7.3±1.9), olanzapine (7.2±1.9), and quetiapine (6.9±1.9) for depression and anxiety; and olanzapine (7.9±1.5) and risperidone (7.5±1.5) for excitement and aggression. While only aripiprazole was categorized as a first-line treatment for relapse prevention (7.6±1.0) in patients without noticeable symptoms, aripiprazole (8.0±1.6) and brexpiprazole (6.9±2.3) were categorized as such for social integration. First-line treatments in patients who are vulnerable to extrapyramidal symptoms include quetiapine (7.5±2.0) and aripiprazole (6.9±2.1).
Discussion
These clinical recommendations represent the expert consensus on the use of a particular antipsychotic medication for a particular situation, filling a current gap in the literature.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to develop a consensus guideline by certified experts of the Japanese Society of Clinical Neuropsychopharmacology on the psychopharmacological treatment for bipolar disorders I and II (BP-I and BP-II), in order to fill the gap in the literature and provide more concrete guidance for challenging and controversial real-world situations. METHODS Experts were asked to assess treatment options regarding 19 clinical situations of bipolar disorder with a nine-point Likert scale (one = "disagree" and nine = "agree"). According to the responses from 119 experts, the options were categorized into the first-, second-, and third-line treatments. RESULTS For the treatment of BP-I, lithium monotherapy was categorized as a first-line treatment for manic episodes (mean ± standard deviation score, 7.0 ± 2.2), depressive episodes (7.1 ± 2.0), and the maintenance phase (7.8 ± 1.8). Combination therapy of lithium and an atypical antipsychotic was endorsed for manic episodes (7.7 ± 1.7), depressive episodes with (7.1 ± 2.0) and without mixed features (6.9 ± 2.2), and the maintenance phase (6.9 ± 2.1). Similarly, in BP-II, lithium monotherapy was categorized as a first-line treatment for hypomanic episodes (7.3 ± 2.2), depressive episodes (7.0 ± 2.2), and the maintenance phase (7.3 ± 2.3), while combination therapy of lithium and an atypical antipsychotic was recommended for hypomanic episodes (6.9 ± 2.4).No antipsychotic monotherapy or antidepressant treatment was categorized as a first-line treatment for any type of episode. CONCLUSIONS These recommendations reflect the current evidence and represent the experts' consensus on using lithium for the treatment of bipolar disorder. Clinicians should consider the effectiveness and adverse effects of antipsychotic and antidepressant medications for the treatment of bipolar disorder.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Clinically relevant issues in the real-world treatment of depression have not always been captured by conventional treatment guidelines. METHODS Certified psychiatrists of the Japanese Society of Clinical Neuropsychopharmacology were asked to evaluate treatment options regarding 23 clinical situations in the treatment of depression using a 9-point Likert scale (1="disagree" and 9="agree"). According to the responses of 114 experts, the options were categorized into first-, second-, and third-line treatments. RESULTS First-line antidepressants varied depending on predominant symptoms: escitalopram (mean ± standard deviation score, 7.8 ± 1.7) and sertraline (7.3 ± 1.7) were likely selected for anxiety; duloxetine (7.6 ± 1.9) and venlafaxine (7.2 ± 2.1) for loss of interest; mirtazapine for insomnia (8.2 ± 1.6), loss of appetite (7.9 ± 1.9), agitation and severe irritation (7.4 ± 2.0), and suicidal ideation (7.5 ± 1.9). While first-line treatment was switched to either an SNRI (7.7 ± 1.9) or mirtazapine (7.4 ± 2.0) in the case of non-response to an SSRI, switching to mirtazapine (7.1 ± 2.2) was recommended in the case of non-response to an SNRI, and vice versa (switching to an SNRI (7.0 ± 2.0) in the case of non-response to mirtazapine). Augmentation with aripiprazole was considered the first-line treatment for partial response to an SSRI (7.1 ± 2.3) or SNRI (7.0 ± 2.5). LIMITATIONS The evidence level of expert consensus is considered low. All included experts were Japanese. CONCLUSIONS Recommendations made by experts in the field are useful and can supplement guidelines and informed decision making in real-world clinical practice. We suggest that pharmacological strategies for depression be flexible and that each patient's situational needs as well as the pharmacotherapeutic profile of medications be considered.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Use of the antipsychotic drug olanzapine by patients with schizophrenia is associated with autonomic nervous system (ANS) dysfunction. It is presumed that there are interindividual differences in ANS dysfunction that correspond to pharmacogenetics. In this study, we investigated whether genetic polymorphisms in ABCB1, CYP1A2, and UGT1A4 are associated with this observed ANS dysfunction. METHODS A total of 91 schizophrenia patients treated with olanzapine monotherapy participated in this study. A power spectral analysis of heart rate variability was used to assess ANS activity. The TaqMan system was used to genotype seven single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in CYP1A2 (rs2069514 and rs762551), UGT1A4 (rs2011425), and ABCB1 (rs1045642, rs1128503, rs2032582, rs2235048). RESULTS Sympathetic nervous activity was significantly higher in individuals with the UGT1A4 rs2011425 G allele than in those with the UGT1A4 rs2011425 non-G allele (sympathetic activity, p = .001). Furthermore, sympathetic nervous activity was also significantly associated with UGT1A4 rs2011425 genotype as revealed by multiple regression analysis (sympathetic activity, p = .008). CONCLUSIONS We suggest that the UGT1A4 rs2011425 polymorphism affects olanzapine tolerability because it is associated with the observed side effects of olanzapine in schizophrenia patients, namely sympathetic dysfunction.

Abstract
Background People with depression have autonomic function disturbances. In Japan, workers who take leave due to depression often undergo a work-focused intervention program called the return to work (RTW) program at a mental health hospital during their leave of absence. However, its biological efficacy remains unclear. We investigated the biological efficacy of the RTW program, including changes in autonomic nervous system (ANS) activity, in workers on sick leave due to depression in Japan. Methods The study involved 104 workers on sick leave due to major depressive disorder or bipolar disorder who underwent the RTW program for 3 months in Yokohama City University Hospital. The ANS activity of all patients was evaluated using heart rate variability at the beginning and end of the 3-month RTW program. Psychiatric symptoms were evaluated using the Montgomery-Åsberg Depression Rating Scale-Japanese (MADRS-J) and Social Adaptation Self-evaluation Scale (SASS). We followed up 3 months after the end of the program and investigated the association between the success in returning to work within 3 months after the end of the RTW program and several factors, including ANS activity, depressive symptoms, and demographic factors. Results Parasympathetic activity was significantly higher and depressive symptom severity was significantly lower at program end than at baseline. Logistic regression analysis showed that the change in depressive symptoms was significantly associated with success in returning to work. Conclusion We suggest that the RTW program improves parasympathetic activity as well as psychiatric symptoms. ANS activity was not a predictor of a successful return to work within 3 months after the end of the program in workers on sick leave due to depression, but further studies with a larger sample size are needed.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Patients with schizophrenia have a higher mortality risk than the general population. Additionally, the autonomic nervous system (ANS) activity of patients with schizophrenia is lower and more dysfunctional than that of the general population. Nonetheless, the association between ANS dysfunction and mortality in schizophrenia is unclear. The aim of this study was to investigate the association between ANS activity and mortality in schizophrenia and to evaluate the predictive values of heart rate variability for long-term survival. METHODS This study involves the 10-year follow-up of a sample population consisting of 59 Japanese inpatients with schizophrenia between 60 and 70 years of age from 2007 to 2016. The ANS activity of all patients was evaluated using heart rate variability in 2007. RESULTS Fifty-three participants could be followed up because they stayed in the hospital during the follow-up period. Of these patients, 11 died during follow-up. Their mean age at death was 70.55 ± 3.45 years. The parasympathetic activity of nonsurvivors was significantly lower than that of survivors, and multiple logistic regression analysis showed a significant association between death and parasympathetic activity. CONCLUSION We suggest that decreased parasympathetic activity could be associated with 10-year all-cause mortality in older schizophrenic patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Long-acting injections (LAIs) of antipsychotics show distinct pharmacokinetic profiles from oral antipsychotics (OAPs). Although there may be differences in adverse event frequency, any differences in their effects on autonomic nervous system (ANS) remain unclear. PATIENTS AND METHODS In total, 270 schizophrenic patients were recruited in this study: 241 received OAPs (risperidone, olanzapine, quetiapine, or aripiprazole) and 29 received LAIs (risperidone LAI, aripiprazole LAI, or paliperidone palmitate) as monotherapy. Heart rate variability was measured as an index of ANS activity, and the low-frequency (0.03-0.15 Hz) component, high-frequency (0.15-0.40 Hz) component, and total power (0.03-0.40 Hz) were calculated. Components were compared between the groups using t-tests. RESULTS A significant difference was detected in the low-frequency component between the OAP and LAI groups (P=0.046). No significant difference was found in total power or the high-frequency component between the two groups. CONCLUSION Compared with OAPs, LAIs have fewer adverse effects on ANS activity, particularly the low-frequency component, as determined using a spectral analysis of heart rate variability.

Abstract
BACKGROUND There are interindividual differences in the adverse effects of atypical antipsychotics, which include autonomic nervous system (ANS) dysfunction. Accordingly, to clarify the interindividual differences in the adverse effects of specific atypical antipsychotics in schizophrenia, we investigated the association between ANS dysfunction and ATP-binding cassette transport sub-family B member 1 (ABCB1) gene polymorphisms in patients with schizophrenia. METHODS In total, 233 Japanese patients with schizophrenia participated in this study. All of the participants received an atypical antipsychotic as monotherapy: 89 participants received risperidone, 69 olanzapine, 48 aripiprazole, and 27 quetiapine. ANS activity was assessed by means of a power spectral analysis of heart rate variability. Four single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in ABCB1 (rs1045642, rs1128503, rs2032582, and rs2235048) were genotyped using the TaqMan method. RESULTS For aripiprazole, sympathetic and total autonomic nervous activities were significantly lower in the rs1045642 T allele carrier-rs2235048 C allele carrier group than in the rs1045642 non-T allele carrier-rs2235048 non-C allele carrier group. In addition, in the aripiprazole group, the T-C-T-A haplotype (rs1045642-rs2235048-rs1128503-rs2032582) was associated with decreased ANS activity. However, there were no significant associations between ANS activity and ABCB1 gene polymorphisms in the risperidone, olanzapine, and quetiapine groups. Multiple regression analysis revealed that sympathetic and total nervous activities were significantly associated with the ABCB1 rs1045642-rs2235048 genotype and the T-C-T-A haplotype (rs1045642-rs2235048-rs1128503-rs2032582). CONCLUSION We suggest that ABCB1 genetic polymorphisms affect aripiprazole-related ANS dysfunction but do not affect risperidone-, olanzapine-, or quetiapine-related ANS dysfunction.

Abstract
Antipsychotic drugs are associated with autonomic nervous system (ANS) dysfunction in patients with schizophrenia, but the effects of individual atypical antipsychotic drugs are not clear. This study investigated how four atypical antipsychotic drugs-risperidone, olanzapine, aripiprazole, and quetiapine-differ in their effects on ANS activity. A total of 241 Japanese patients with schizophrenia participated in this study. All of the participants received an atypical antipsychotic as monotherapy: 90 participants received risperidone, 68 olanzapine, 52 aripiprazole, and 31 quetiapine. ANS activity was assessed by means of a power spectral analysis of heart rate variability. The quetiapine group showed significantly diminished sympathetic and parasympathetic activity compared with the risperidone and aripiprazole groups and significantly lower sympathetic activity relative to olanzapine. In addition, multiple regression analysis showed that the type of antipsychotic drug significantly influenced ANS activity. We suggest that, among the antipsychotics examined-risperidone, olanzapine, aripiprazole and quetiapine-quetiapine has the strongest effect on ANS activity.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The prevalence of smoking in patients with schizophrenia is higher than that in the general population and is an important medical issue. Short-term smoking cessation tends to worsen psychiatric symptoms in patients with schizophrenia but decreases sympathetic nervous system activity and improves plasma cholesterol levels in healthy people. Few studies have assessed the long-term effects of smoking cessation in patients with schizophrenia. METHODS Subjects were 70 Japanese patients with schizophrenia (38 smokers, 32 non-smokers). We compared the following clinical parameters between the two groups at baseline (before smoking cessation) and in each group separately between baseline and at three years after smoking cessation: autonomic nervous system activity, plasma cholesterol levels, body weight, drug therapy, and Global Assessment of Functioning scores. We also compared the mean changes in clinical parameters throughout this study between the groups at both time points. Autonomic nervous system activity was assessed by power spectral analysis of heart rate variability. RESULTS Parasympathetic nervous system activity and the doses of antiparkinsonian drugs in smokers were significantly higher than those in non-smokers at baseline. Smoking cessation was associated with significantly decreased sympathetic nervous system activity and decreased doses of antipsychotics and antiparkinsonian drugs at three years after smoking cessation. However, there was no significant difference in the mean change in clinical factors scores, except for Global Assessment of Functioning scores, between smokers and non-smokers at three years after smoking cessation. CONCLUSIONS Our results suggest that smoking reduces both autonomic nervous system activity and the effectiveness of drug therapy with antipsychotics and antiparkinsonian drugs in patients with schizophrenia, but that both factors could be ameliorated over the long term by smoking cessation. Taken together with the findings of previous studies, smoking cessation in patients with schizophrenia has many long-term positive physiological effects.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Patients with schizophrenia have abnormal autonomic nervous system (ANS) activity compared with the general population. One reason for this difference is the muscarinic affinity for antipsychotic drugs; therefore, single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of the muscarinic receptor gene influence this ANS dysfunction. This study sought to determine the effect of SNPs of the cholinergic muscarinic receptor (CHRM) gene on ANS activity in patients with schizophrenia receiving antipsychotic drugs. METHODS A total of 173 Japanese patients with schizophrenia were included in this study. Heart rate variability (HRV) was measured as an index of ANS activity. SNPs in CHRM1 (rs542269 and rs2075748), CHRM2 (rs324640, rs8191992, rs1824024, and rs7810473), and CHRM3 (rs3738435, rs4620530, and rs6429157) were genotyped using the TaqMan® method. Patients were grouped according to standard equivalent conversions of chlorpromazine (CP) into a high-CP group (HG; ≥1,000 mg) and a low-CP group (LG; <1,000 mg). ANS activity was compared between the groups. In addition, we compared the total, low-frequency (LF), high-frequency (HF), and LF/HF components of the patients' HRV, and the genotype of the SNPs in both the HG and LG groups. Bonferroni correction was applied for multiple comparisons, and the Bonferroni-corrected critical p value was <0.005. RESULTS The A allele of the CHRM2 rs8191992 polymorphism in HG was associated with decreased ANS activity. CONCLUSION Our results show reduced ANS activity in association with the CHRM2 rs8191992 polymorphism in patients with schizophrenia on high-dose antipsychotics. CHRM2 polymorphisms may play an important role in ANS activity in patients with schizophrenia.

Abstract
AIM Numerous reports have described differences in the distribution of orbitofrontal cortex (OFC) sulcogyral patterns between patients with schizophrenia (SZ patients) and healthy controls (HC). Alterations in OFC morphology are also observed in those at high risk for developing SZ and in first-episode SZ, suggesting that genetic associations may be extant in determining OFC sulcogyral patterns. We investigated the association between single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) in NRG1 and OFC sulcogyral patterns. METHODS A total of 59 Japanese patients diagnosed with SZ and 60 HC were scanned on a 1.5-T magnet. Patients were also assessed clinically. OFC sulcogyral patterns were evaluated for each participant, and genotyping was performed for four SNP in NRG1 (SNP8NRG243177, SNP8NRG221533, SNP8NRG241930, and rs1081062). RESULTS There were significant differences in the distribution of OFC sulcogyral patterns between SZ patients and HC (χ(2) = 6.52, P = 0.038). SZ patients showed an increase in the frequency of Type III expression, which was associated with an earlier age of disease onset (β = -0.302, F = 4.948, P = 0.030). Although no difference was found in genotype frequencies between SZ patients and HC, an NRG1 SNP, SNP8NRG243177, was associated with Type II expression in SZ patients (β = 0.237, F = 4.120, P = 0.047). CONCLUSION Our results suggest that OFC sulcogyral pattern formation in schizophrenia may be associated with NRG1 allele frequency, which is closely related to neurodevelopment.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Antipsychotic drugs are considered a trigger factor for autonomic dysregulation, which has been shown to predict potentially fatal arrhythmias in schizophrenia. However, the dose-dependent effect of antipsychotic drugs and other psychotropic drugs on autonomic nervous system (ANS) activity remain unclear. The purpose of this study was to investigate the dose-dependent effect of antipsychotic drugs and other clinical factors on ANS activity in an adequate sample size of patients with schizophrenia. METHODS A total of 211 Japanese patients with schizophrenia and 44 healthy subjects participated in this study. ANS activity was assessed by means of heart rate variability (HRV) power spectral analysis. Antipsychotic drug treatment and various clinical factors were investigated for each participant. The patient group was categorized into three subgroups according to daily dose of antipsychotic drug, and HRV was compared between groups. RESULTS The results showed significantly decreased low-frequency and high-frequency components of HRV in the patient group compared to the control group. The high-dose group showed a significantly lower HRV than the medium-dose group and an even lower HRV than the low-dose group. In addition, a significant association between HRV and antipsychotic drug dose was identified by multiple regression analysis. HRV was not associated with age, sex, body mass index, duration of illness, or daily dose of other psychotropic drugs. CONCLUSION These results suggest that antipsychotic drugs exert a significant dose-dependent effect on the extent of decline in ANS activity, and that optimal antipsychotic medication is required to avoid possible cardiovascular adverse events in patients with schizophrenia.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Lifestyle factors, such as an unbalanced diet and lack of physical activity, may affect the prevalence of metabolic syndrome (MetS) in schizophrenic patients. The aim of this study was to compare the MetS prevalence between inpatients and outpatients among schizophrenic population in Japan. METHODS We recruited inpatients (n = 759) and outpatients (n = 427) with a Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, fourth edition (DSM-IV) diagnosis of schizophrenia or schizoaffective disorder from 7 psychiatric hospitals using a cross-sectional design. MetS prevalence was assessed using three different definitions, including the adapted National Cholesterol Education Program Adult Treatment Panel (ATP III-A). RESULTS The overall MetS prevalences based on the ATP III-A definition were 15.8% in inpatients and 48.1% in outpatients. In a logistic regression model with age and body mass index as covariates, being a schizophrenic outpatient, compared to being a schizophrenic inpatient, was a significant independent factor (odds ratio = 3.66 for males, 2.48 for females) in the development of MetS under the ATP III-A definition. The difference in MetS prevalence between inpatients and outpatients was observed for all age groups in males and for females over 40 years of age. CONCLUSIONS Outpatients with schizophrenia or schizoaffective disorder in Japan had a high prevalence of MetS compared to inpatients. MetS in schizophrenic outpatients should be carefully monitored to minimize the risks. A change of lifestyle might improve MetS in schizophrenic patients.

Abstract
AIMS Schizophrenia patients have a mortality rate two to three-fold higher than that of the general population. Despite the disorder's widespread recognition, how and to what extent autonomic nervous system (ANS) activity contributes to schizophrenia remains inconclusive. The aim of the present study, therefore, was to determine the extent of ANS activity depression with respect to healthy, well-matched control subjects and the severity of psychiatric disorders as determined using the Global Assessment of Functioning (GAF) scale among schizophrenia patients with special reference to antipsychotic dose. METHODS This study included 71 schizophrenia patients and 72 healthy controls. ANS activity was assessed by means of heart rate variability power spectral analysis. RESULTS ANS-related spectral parameters were three-four-fold lower in the patients compared to the control group (P < 0.01). Furthermore, when the patients without cardiovascular complications were classified according to GAF score, overall ANS (P = 0.033) and parasympathetic nervous system (PNS) activity (P = 0.025) were significantly reduced in the low-GAF as compared to the high-GAF group. Partial correlation analyses demonstrated that ANS activity was significantly correlated with GAF score while statistically eliminating the effects of age, gender, body mass index, antipsychotic dose, and lipid profiles of the patient population. CONCLUSION The significantly lower ANS activity in the low-GAF group suggests that such autonomic functional depression could be associated with the severity of schizophrenia. The present data further imply that schizophrenia patients with more depressed overall ANS and PNS activity might encounter increasing risks for cardiovascular events such as sudden death.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Some reports have suggested the involvement of the D2 dopaminergic function in the expression of suicidal behavior. Here, we examined associations between suicide attempts and two kinds of functional polymorphisms in the dopamine D2 receptor (DRD2) gene, namely, TaqIA and -141C Ins/Del. METHODS Subjects included 120 suicide attempters and 123 unrelated volunteers. Those who attempted suicide were severely injured and were transferred to the emergency unit in our university hospital. To determine each genotype, we performed polymerase chain reaction and restriction fragment length polymorphism analyses. RESULTS We found significant differences in genotypic and allelic frequencies of -141C Ins/Del and TaqIA polymorphisms between suicide attempters and healthy controls (-141C Ins/Del, p = 0.01; TaqIA,p = 0.036). The Ins allele of -141C Ins/Del was significantly more frequent in suicide attempters (p = 0.011), as well as the A2 allele of TaqIA (p = 0.017). Haplotype analysis revealed no significant linkage disequilibrium between -141C Ins/Del and TaqIA polymorphisms (D' = 0.226, r(2) = 0.016, p = 0.10). CONCLUSIONS These findings suggest that DRD2 gene polymorphisms may be involved in the biological susceptibility to suicide.

Abstract
Intrauterine exposure to SSRIs in late pregnancy can cause various serotonergic symptoms in the newborns. We associated the severity of these symptoms to neurotransmitter concentrations and genetic polymorphisms in the cytochrome P450, MAO-A and COMT enzymes. Altogether 20 children with prenatal exposure to citalopram or fluoxetine were genotyped. Infants with two high-activity alleles of the MAO-A gene had significantly higher serotonergic symptom scores than infants with at least one low-activity allele (mean 8.8 vs. 2.4, p=0.024). These infants had also higher cord blood DHPG concentrations (p=0.0054). Carriers of the high-activity COMT alleles had higher cord blood prolactin concentrations (p=0.044). According to our results, the higher serotonergic symptom score and cord blood DHPG concentration in rapid MAO-A metabolizers suggest that norepinephrine may modify the severity of perinatal serotonergic symptoms. The COMT 1947G>A polymorphism may affect the occurrence of respiratory distress symptoms in infants with prenatal SSRI-exposure via a mechanism involving prolactin.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The incidence of suicide has increased markedly in Japan since 1998. As psychological autopsy is not generally accepted in Japan, surveys of suicide attempts, an established risk factor of suicide, are highly regarded. We have carried out this study to gain insight into the psychiatric aspects of those attempting suicide in Japan. METHODS Three hundred and twenty consecutive cases of attempted suicide who were admitted to an urban emergency department were interviewed, with the focus on psychosocial background and DSM-IV diagnosis. Moreover, they were divided into two groups according to the method of attempted suicide in terms of lethality, and the two groups were compared. RESULTS Ninety-five percent of patients received a psychiatric diagnosis: 81% of subjects met the criteria for an axis I disorder. The most frequent diagnosis was mood disorder. The mean age was higher and living alone more common in the high-lethality group. Middle-aged men tended to have a higher prevalence of mood disorders. CONCLUSION This is the first large-scale study of cases of attempted suicide since the dramatic increase in suicides began in Japan. The identification and introduction of treatments for psychiatric disorders at emergency departments has been indicated to be important in suicide prevention.

Abstract
The serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine) transporter (5-HTT) is considered to affect the pathogenesis of mood disorders. Large number of genetic association studies between 5-HTT functional polymorphisms and vulnerability of mood disorders and therapeutic response to antidepressants has been carried out. We investigated the influence of 5-HTT-linked polymorphic region (5-HTTLPR) and 5-HTT 17 bp variable number of tandem repeat polymorphism (5-HTTVNTR) polymorphisms on concentrations of monoamine metabolites in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) among treatment-resistant patients with mood disorders. Subjects were 119 Swedish patients with persistent mood disorders and 141 healthy subjects. In 112 of these patients, we measured 5-hydroxyindoleacetic acid (5-HIAA), homovanillic acid (HVA), and 3-methoxy-4-hydroxyphenylglycol in CSF. Genotyping for 5-HTT polymorphisms from genomic DNA was carried out by PCR. There was no significant difference in allele/genotype frequency between patients and healthy subjects. In patients with mood disorders, we found significant difference in mean 5-HIAA concentration between 5-HTTLPR genotypes (p=0.03). Although the 5-HIAA concentration showed a tendency to be higher in short (S) carriers than in non-S carriers of the 5-HTTLPR in patients (p=0.06), when considering patients with major depressive disorder (MDD), the 5-HIAA concentration was significantly higher among S carriers than among non-S carriers (p=0.02). Moreover, the 5-HIAA concentration was higher in S/S subjects compared to long (L)/L (p=0.0001) and L/S (p=0.002) subjects in patients with MDD. Similarly, there was higher HVA concentration in S/S subjects compared to L/L (p=0.002) and L/S subjects (p=0.002). There was no effect of 5-HTTVNTR. Our findings show that the 5-HTTLPR polymorphism affects 5-HIAA and HVA concentrations among treatment-resistant patients with mood disorders.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Neuroleptic malignant syndrome (NMS) is one of the most serious adverse reactions to antipsychotic medications. We accumulated data on Japanese NMS patients and, in a study designed to examine the effects of drug metabolism on the occurrence of NMS, tested the possibility of association between NMS and CYP2D6 polymorphisms. METHODS We studied 53 patients who had experienced NMS and 112 healthy individuals. We determined what drugs the patients with NMS had been given and retrospectively identified candidates for drugs causing NMS. We screened the prevalence of CYP2D6 genotypes using polymerase chain reaction and restriction fragment length polymorphism analyses. RESULTS The prevalence of *5 alleles in the group of all patients with NMS was higher than that in the controls, though this difference was not statistically significant (10.4% vs. 5.4%; P = 0.107; odds ratio (OR) 2.05; 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.87-4.80). No association was found between the frequency of *10 alleles and the occurrence of NMS. We found *4 and duplicated alleles in only one patient each among the patients with NMS. A total of 29 patients appeared to have developed NMS as a result of having taking CYP2D6 substrates. The prevalence of *5 alleles in these 29 patient was significantly higher than that in the controls (15.5% vs. 5.4%; P = 0.020; OR 3.25; 95% CI 1.30-8.13). CONCLUSION Our findings suggest that the CYP2D6*5 allele is likely to affect vulnerability to development of NMS.

Abstract
Japan has one of the highest suicide rates in the world. Suicides numbered 32,863 in 1998 and have exceeded 30,000 in every subsequent year. Education of those involved in general and psychosocial patient care can contribute greatly to suicide prevention. The authors administered a brief knowledge and attitude assessment questionnaire concerning suicide to students in their first, third, and fifth years at a Japanese medical school. Participants numbered 160 (94 men with a mean age of 21.8 years, SD = 3.01, and 66 women with a mean age of 21.2 years, SD = 2.64); 59 first year, 52 third year, and 49 in their fifth year. The questionnaire consists of eight multiple-choice questions asking knowledge of suicide and one open-ended question asking attitude. In the knowledge part, only about half of the items were answered correctly (mean score was 4.21, SD = 1.28). A significant difference was observed in prevalence of attitudes as categorical variables between student years (P = 0.001). Sympathetic comments increased along with student years, while critical comments decreased. Given the frequent and interventional opportunities of primary-care medical contacts, poor understanding of suicide from the medical viewpoint was of concern. Moreover, judgmental attitudes were common, especially in earlier school years. Better informed, more understanding physicians and other health professionals could contribute greatly to prevention.

Abstract
Patients with dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB) are particularly vulnerable to adverse effects of neuroleptics; this sensitivity is included among the clinical diagnostic criteria for DLB. Recently atypical neuroleptics, which carry less risk of extrapyramidal side effects than typical agents, have come into increasing use in treating psychotic symptoms and behavioral disturbances related to DLB. The present report is the first to describe a DLB patient who developed neuroleptic malignant syndrome (NMS) induced by quetiapine, an atypical neuroleptic known to have relatively infrequent extrapyramidal side effects in DLB patients. Physicians should be aware of the possibility of the occurrence of NMS in DLB even when atypical neuroleptics are administered.

Abstract
Neuroleptic malignant syndrome (NMS) is a potentially fatal adverse reaction to psychopharmacologic treatment. Reported herein are two NMS patients with schizophrenia who were found to possess a CYP2D6 gene deletion allele (CYP2D6*5). The deletion results in decreased CYP2D6 activity, possibly leading to drug accumulation. Both patients with NMS had been treated with neuroleptics, including CYP2D6 substrates. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) followed by restriction fragment length polymorphism analyses and long PCR were performed to detect CYP2D6 genotype. One patient was found to possess *5/*10; the other had a *1/*5 genotype. The present preliminary report suggests that pharmacokinetic factors cannot be excluded and the CYP2D6 polymorphism is possibly associated with the etiology of NMS.

Abstract
A genetic predisposition to the development of neuroleptic malignant syndrome (NMS) has been suggested by clinical studies. Although the molecular basis of NMS is unclear, a dopaminergic blockade mechanism has been considered the main cause. We therefore investigated the association between NMS and three functional polymorphisms of the dopamine D(2) receptor (DRD(2)) gene: TaqI A, -141C Ins/Del, and Ser311Cys. Subjects included 32 Japanese patients, previously diagnosed with NMS, and 132 schizophrenic patients treated with neuroleptics without occurrence of NMS. Polymerase chain reaction and restriction fragment length polymorphism analyses were performed to determine each genotype. We found significant differences in genotypic and allelic frequencies of the -141C Ins/Del polymorphism between patients with and without NMS. The -141C Del allele was significantly more frequent in the NMS group (23.4 vs 11.7%, P=0.026). Similarly, the proportion of -141C Del allele carriers was significantly higher in the NMS group (40.6 vs 20.5%, P=0.022). No significant differences between the two groups were seen for allelic and genotypic frequencies of the TaqI A and Ser311Cys polymorphisms. This result suggests that the -141C Ins/Del polymorphism is likely to predispose toward the development of NMS, probably together with other unidentified factors.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The molecular basis of neuroleptic malignant syndrome (NMS) is unclear, but clinical studies have noted a genetic predisposition. A recent genetic study suggested an association between NMS and the I A polymorphism in the dopamine D2 receptor (DRD2 ) gene. We further examined the association in a larger number of subjects. METHODS We studied 49 Japanese patients previously diagnosed with NMS, and 123 schizophrenic patients treated with neuroleptics without occurrence of NMS. PCR and RFLP analyses were performed to screen the I A polymorphism. RESULTS The I A1 allele frequency was 0.408 in NMS patients and 0.415 in patients without NMS. No significant differences in allelic or genotypic frequencies were observed between the two groups. CONCLUSIONS We cannot conclude that the I A polymorphism is associated with development of NMS.

Abstract
We describe a patient with treatment-resistant schizophrenia who had a duplication in the cytochrome P450IID6 (CYP2D6) gene. This severely ill 71-year-old-woman had responded poorly to several neuroleptics. Molecular genetic study revealed CYP2D6 gene duplication, which results in excessive activity of CYP2D6 that metabolizes various commonly used neuroleptics. The mutation may have contributed to treatment resistance in this case.
