  • Impact of CYP2C19 Genotype on Sertraline Exposure in 1200 Scandinavian Patients
    www.nature.com/npp ARTICLE Impact of CYP2C19 genotype on sertraline exposure in 1200 Scandinavian patients Line S. Bråten 1,2, Tore Haslemo1,2, Marin M. Jukic3,4, Magnus Ingelman-Sundberg 3, Espen Molden1,5 and Marianne K. Kringen1,2 Sertraline is an (SSRI-)antidepressant metabolized by the polymorphic CYP2C19 enzyme. The aim of this study was to investigate the impact of CYP2C19 genotype on the serum concentrations of sertraline in a large patient population. Second, the proportions of patients in the various CYP2C19 genotype-defined subgroups obtaining serum concentrations outside the therapeutic range of sertraline were assessed. A total of 2190 sertraline serum concentration measurements from 1202 patients were included retrospectively from the drug monitoring database at Diakonhjemmet Hospital in Oslo. The patients were divided into CYP2C19 genotype-predicted phenotype subgroups, i.e. normal (NMs), ultra rapid (UMs), intermediate (IMs), and poor metabolisers (PMs). The differences in dose-harmonized serum concentrations of sertraline and N-desmethylsertraline-to-sertraline metabolic ratio were compared between the subgroups, with CYP2C19 NMs set as reference. The patient proportions outside the therapeutic concentration range were also compared between the subgroups with NMs defined as reference. Compared with the CYP2C19 NMs, the sertraline serum concentration was increased 1.38-fold (95% CI 1.26–1.50) and 2.68-fold (95% CI 2.16–3.31) in CYP2C19 IMs and PMs, respectively (p < 0.001), while only a marginally lower serum concentration (−10%) was observed in CYP2C19 UMs (p = 0.012). The odds ratio for having a sertraline concentration above the therapeutic reference range was 1.97 (95% CI 1.21–3.21, p = 0.064) and 8.69 (95% CI 3.88–19.19, p < 0.001) higher for IMs and PMs vs.

Psychogenic amnesia is a complex disorder characterised by a wide variety of symptoms. Consequently, in a number of cases it is difficult distinguish it from organic memory impairment. The present study reports a new case of global psychogenic amnesia compared with two patients with amnesia underlain by organic brain damage. Our aim was to identify features useful for distinguishing between psychogenic and organic forms of memory impairment. The findings show the usefulness of a multidimensional evaluation of clinical, neuroradiological, neuropsychological and psychopathological aspects, to provide convergent findings useful for differentiating the two forms of memory disorder.

    Vascular Dementia Vascular Dementia Other Dementias This information sheet provides an overview of a type of dementia known as vascular dementia. In this information sheet you will find: • An overview of vascular dementia • Types and symptoms of vascular dementia • Risk factors that can put someone at risk of developing vascular dementia • Information on how vascular dementia is diagnosed and treated • Information on how someone living with vascular dementia can maintain their quality of life • Other useful resources What is dementia? Dementia is an overall term for a set of symptoms that is caused by disorders affecting the brain. Someone with dementia may find it difficult to remember things, find the right words, and solve problems, all of which interfere with daily activities. A person with dementia may also experience changes in mood or behaviour. As the dementia progresses, the person will have difficulties completing even basic tasks such as getting dressed and eating. Alzheimer’s disease and vascular dementia are two common types of dementia. It is very common for vascular dementia and Alzheimer’s disease to occur together. This is called “mixed dementia.” What is vascular dementia?1 Vascular dementia is a type of dementia caused by damage to the brain from lack of blood flow or from bleeding in the brain. For our brain to function properly, it needs a constant supply of blood through a network of blood vessels called the brain vascular system. When the blood vessels are blocked, or when they bleed, oxygen and nutrients are prevented from reaching cells in the brain. As a result, the affected cells can die.
