Transcranial magnetic stimulation in treatment-resistant depressed patients: a double-blind, placebo-controlled trialDavid Rossini
Department of Psychiatry, School of Medicine, Vita Salute University, San Raffaele Hospital, Via Stamira d Ancona 20, Milan 20127, Italy
Psychiatry Res 137:1-10. 2005..The results of this double-blind trial showed that rTMS may be a useful and safe adjunctive treatment for drug-resistant depressed patients...
Sertraline versus fluvoxamine in the treatment of elderly patients with major depression: a double-blind, randomized trialDavid Rossini
Department of Psychiatry, Vita Salute University, San Raffaele Institute, Milan, Italy
J Clin Psychopharmacol 25:471-5. 2005..Given the lack of literature data regarding fluvoxamine in the treatment of depressed elderly patients, the aim of the present study was to compare its efficacy and tolerability with those of sertraline in a sample of elderly patients...
Further evidence of a combined effect of SERTPR and TPH on SSRIs response in mood disordersAlessandro Serretti
Department of Psychiatry, Vita Salute University, San Raffaele Institute, Milan, Italy
Am J Med Genet B Neuropsychiatr Genet 129:36-40. 2004..Thus, the previous positive association was not fully replicated for TPH. The present independent replication confirms SERTPR variants as a liability factor for antidepressant efficacy while the TPH effect is not unequivocal...
Antidepressant response in the elderlyLaura Mandelli
Department of Psychiatry, University of Bologna, Bologna, Italy
Psychiatry Res 152:37-44. 2007..Minor health problems increase the severity of depression, but they do not interfere crucially with the efficacy of antidepressant treatment. Finally, late-onset depression is associated with a positive outcome...
Role of serotonergic gene polymorphisms on response to transcranial magnetic stimulation in depressionRaffaella Zanardi
Department of Psychiatry, School of Medicine, Vita Salute University San Raffaele, Via Stamira d Ancona 20, Milan 20127, Italy
Eur Neuropsychopharmacol 17:651-7. 2007..Our sample has not the power to control for the possible influence of different medications on these results...
Role of COMT, 5-HT(1A) , and SERT genetic polymorphisms on antidepressant response to Transcranial Magnetic StimulationAlessia Malaguti
San Raffaele Scientific Institute, Vita Salute San Raffaele University, Clinical Neurosciences Department, Milan, Italy
Depress Anxiety 28:568-73. 2011..Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) is an effective technique in the treatment of depression, specifically in drug-resistant patients. However, there is little data available on the influence of genetic variables on TMS response...
Genetic features of antidepressant induced mania and hypo-mania in bipolar disorderAlessandro Serretti
Department of Psychiatry, School of Medicine, Vita Salute University San Raffaele, Via Stamira d Ancona 20, 20127 Milan, Italy
Psychopharmacology (Berl) 174:504-11. 2004..The present study investigated possible genetic association between some polymorphisms possibly involved in antidepressant response and the occurrence of manic or hypo-manic switches during antidepressant treatment...
SSRIs antidepressant activity is influenced by G beta 3 variantsAlessandro Serretti
Department of Psychiatry, Vita Salute University, Fondazione Centro San Raffaele del Monte Tabor, Milan, Italy
Eur Neuropsychopharmacol 13:117-22. 2003..009) and this effect was independent from analyzed demographic and clinical variables. These results confirm preliminary reports and shed further light on the genetics of the response to antidepressant treatments...
Does rTMS hasten the response to escitalopram, sertraline, or venlafaxine in patients with major depressive disorder? A double-blind, randomized, sham-controlled trialDavid Rossini
Department of Psychiatry, School of Medicine, Vita Salute University, San Raffaele Hospital, Via Stamina d Ancona 20, 20127 Milan, Italy
J Clin Psychiatry 66:1569-75. 2005..We also evaluated if, among the 3 antidepressants administered, one had a better synergy with rTMS...
Comparison of response to fluvoxamine in nondemented elderly compared to younger patients affected by major depressionRaffaella Zanardi
Department of Psychiatry San Raffaele Institute, Vita Salute University, Via Stamira d Ancona 20, 20127 Milan, Italy
J Clin Psychopharmacol 23:535-9. 2003..0006). This difference between the 2 age groups was evident since the 2nd week of treatment, and it appeared to be independent of other clinical variables...
Influence of monoamine oxidase A and serotonin receptor 2A polymorphisms in SSRI antidepressant activityCristina Cusin
Department of Psychiatry, Vita Salute University, Raffaele del Monte Tabor, Milan, Italy
Int J Neuropsychopharmacol 5:27-35. 2002..The investigated MAOA and 5-HT-2A gene variants, therefore, do not seem to play a major role in SSRI antidepressant activity...
Clinical features of antidepressant associated manic and hypomanic switches in bipolar disorderAlessandro Serretti
Department of Psychiatry, School of Medicine, Vita Salute University San Raffaele, Via Stamira d Ancona 20, Milan 20127, Italy
Prog Neuropsychopharmacol Biol Psychiatry 27:751-7. 2003..Further studies are required to investigate the causal relationships between those factors...
New perspectives on techniques for the clinical psychiatrist: Brain stimulation, chronobiology and psychiatric brain imagingRaffaella Zanardi
San Raffaele Hospital Department of Psychiatry, Vita Salute University, Milan, Italy
Psychiatry Clin Neurosci 62:627-37. 2008..The aim was to bridge gaps between the research evidence and clinical decisions, and reach an agreement on several key points of chronobiological and brain stimulation techniques, as well as on relevant objectives for future research...
