TL;DR: In this paper, the possible association of the dopamine receptor D(2) (Ser 311Cys) and D(4) exon 3 (48 base pair repeat) gene variants with the antidepressant activity of selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) was investigated in a sample of 364 inpatients affected by a major depressive episode.

TL;DR: Previous treatment's tapering off strategy for switching patients to aripiprazole could be preferable as compared to abrupt discontinuation, in order to prevent early worsening of symptoms and premature discontinuation of treatment, though this results has to be considered with caution given the limitations of the study.
Journal ArticleDOI
5-HTTLPR and gender differences in affective disorders: A systematic review.
TL;DR: 5-HTTLPR variants may exert a differential modulation on a number of features depending on gender, and these differences seemed to begin with adolescence and were not consistent among the elderly, suggesting a plausible role of hormonal fluctuations.
Journal ArticleDOI
The use of the defence style questionnaire in major depressive and panic disorders: A comprehensive meta‐analysis
TL;DR: A dissimilarity between depressive and anxious profiles emerged, since the former profile was characterized by low Mature and high Neurotic and Immature scores while the latter by high neurotic andImmature scores only.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mode of inheritance in mood disorder families according to fluvoxamine response.
TL;DR: The identification of a Mendelian mode of transmission in bipolar subjects who were selected according to their response to fluvoxamine supports the use of a pharmacological criterion as a tool for identifying true genetic disorders.
