Illness progression in older‐age bipolar disorder: Exploring the applicability, dispersion, concordance, and associated clinical markers of two staging models for bipolar disorder in an older population

Afra Markt, Alexandra J. M. Beunders, Nicole C. M. Korten, Sigfried N. T. M. Schouws, more

International Journal of Geriatric Psychiatry > 37 > 11 > n/a - n/a

Objectives The validity and applicability of two existing staging models reflecting illness progression have been studied in bipolar disorder (BD) in adults, but not in older adult populations. Staging model A is primarily defined by the number and recurrence of mood episodes, model B is defined by the level of inter‐episodic functioning. This study aimed to explore the applicability, dispersion,...

Jan K. Mokkenstorm, Ad J.F.M. Kerkhof, Johannes H. Smit, Aartjan T.F. Beekman

Suicide and Life‐Threatening Behavior > 48 > 6 > 745 - 754

Suicide prevention is a major health care responsibility in need of new perspectives. This study reviews Zero Suicide, an emerging approach to suicide prevention that embraces the aspirational goal of zero suicides among patients treated in health care systems or organizations. Zero Suicide is gaining international momentum while at the same time evoking objections and concerns. Fundamental to Zero...

Religious delusions in older adults: Diagnoses, combinations, and delusional characteristics

Annemarie Noort, Aartjan T.F. Beekman, Arthur R. Gool, Arjan W. Braam

International Journal of Geriatric Psychiatry > 33 > 12 > 1680 - 1687

Objective Religious delusions (RDs) tend to occur relatively often in patients with affective or non‐affective psychosis. Few studies exist about RDs in later life. The current study explores (1) the distribution of RDs across diagnosis, (2) how RDs relate to other types of delusions, and (3) how RDs relate to several dimensions or characteristics of delusions. Methods Inpatients and outpatients...

Rosa E. Boeschoten, Roxanne Schaakxs, Joost Dekker, Bernard M.J. Uitdehaag, more

Journal of Psychosomatic Research > 2017 > 103 > C > 70-76

Major depressive disorder (MDD) is common in patients with multiple sclerosis (MS) but may remain unrecognized because of overlapping symptoms and different presentation due to its specific MS-related neurobiological aetiology. We aimed to investigate the clinical profile of MDD in MS.In a sample of MDD patients with MS (n=83) and without MS (n=782), MDD characteristics, 30 depressive symptoms, and...

Adherence to a web-based pre-treatment for phobias in outpatient clinics

Robin N. Kok, Aartjan T.F. Beekman, Pim Cuijpers, Annemieke van Straten

Internet Interventions > 2017 > 9 > C > 38-45

Non-adherence in Internet interventions is a persistent and multifaceted issue and potentially limits the applicability and effectiveness of these interventions. Factors that influence non-adherence are poorly understood, especially in outpatient samples with more complex symptoms.The current study is a secondary analysis of data from a randomised controlled trial that examined the cost-effectiveness...

Risk Factors for Depression: Differential Across Age?

Roxanne Schaakxs, Hannie C. Comijs, Roos C. van der Mast, Robert A. Schoevers, more

The American Journal of Geriatric Psychiatry > 2017 > 25 > 9 > 966-977

The occurrence of well-established risk factors for depression differs across the lifespan. Risk factors may be more strongly associated with depression at ages when occurrence, and therefore expectance, is relatively low (“on-time off-time” hypothesis). This large-scale study examined absolute and relative risks of established risk factors for depression across the lifespan.Participants were 2,215...

The relationship between serum 25(OH)D levels and anxiety symptoms in older persons: Results from the Longitudinal Aging Study Amsterdam

Elisa J. de Koning, Lotte Verweij, Paul Lips, Aartjan T.F. Beekman, more

Journal of Psychosomatic Research > 2017 > 97 > C > 90-95

Low serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D levels (25(OH)D<50nmol/L) are common in older persons and associated with depressive symptoms. Depression and anxiety are highly interrelated, but only very few studies examined the association between 25(OH)D and anxiety. This study investigated whether 25(OH)D levels are related to anxiety symptoms in older persons, both cross-sectionally and over time.Data from...

Does the number of previous mood episodes moderate the relationship between alcohol use, smoking and mood in bipolar outpatients?

Wendela G. Meulen, Jan Zaane, Stasja Draisma, Aartjan T.F. Beekman, more

BMC Psychiatry > 2017 > 17 > 1 > 1-8

Background Evidence suggests that alcohol use and smoking are negatively associated with mood in bipolar disorders (BD). It is unknown if this relationship is moderated by the number of previous mood episodes. Therefore, this paper aims to examine whether the number of previous mood episodes moderates the relationship between alcohol use and smoking, and mood. Method This study assessed the outcomes...

The American Journal of Geriatric Psychiatry > 2017 > 25 > 4 > 374-385

This study investigates the independent and combined potential of slowed gait speed and slowed processing speed as predictors of adverse health outcomes. The role of depressive symptoms in these associations is also investigated.In the prospective cohort study, using the Longitudinal Aging Study Amsterdam database, three study samples for each outcome variable were defined: persistent cognitive decline...

Using Clinical Characteristics to Identify Which Patients With Major Depressive Disorder Have a Higher Genetic Load for Three Psychiatric Disorders

Judith Verduijn, Yuri Milaneschi, Wouter J. Peyrot, Jouke Jan Hottenga, more

Biological Psychiatry > 2017 > 81 > 4 > 316-324

Limited successes of gene finding for major depressive disorder (MDD) may be partly due to phenotypic heterogeneity. We tested whether the genetic load for MDD, bipolar disorder, and schizophrenia (SCZ) is increased in phenotypically more homogenous MDD patients identified by specific clinical characteristics.Patients (n = 1539) with a DSM-IV MDD diagnosis and control subjects (n = 1792) were from...

Journal of the Neurological Sciences > 2017 > 372 > C > 331-341

Prevalence rates of depression and anxiety in patients with Multiple Sclerosis (MS) vary widely across studies. Aim of this systematic review and meta-analysis was to a) estimate the prevalence of depression and anxiety in MS, and specifically b) explore sources of heterogeneity (assessment method, prevalence period, study quality, recruitment resource, region) by extensive analyses.A computerized...

Anxious distress predicts subsequent treatment outcome and side effects in depressed patients starting antidepressant treatment

Roxanne Gaspersz, Femke Lamers, Justine M. Kent, Aartjan T.F. Beekman, more

Journal of Psychiatric Research > 2017 > 84 > C > 41-48

Evidence has shown that the DSM-5 anxious distress specifier captures a clinically valid construct that predicts a worse clinical course. Although of importance for treatment planning and monitoring, however, the specifier's ability to predict treatment outcome is unknown. This is the first study to examine the ability of the DSM-5 anxious distress specifier to predict treatment response and side...

Economic evaluation of Internet-based problem-solving guided self-help treatment in comparison with enhanced usual care for depressed outpatients waiting for face-to-face treatment: A randomized controlled trial

Spyros Kolovos, Robin M.F. Kenter, Judith E. Bosmans, Aartjan T.F. Beekman, more

Journal of Affective Disorders > 2016 > 200 > C > 284-292

Previous studies have demonstrated the effectiveness of Internet-based interventions for depression in comparison with usual care. However, evidence on the cost-effectiveness of these interventions when delivered in outpatient clinics is lacking. The aim of this study was to estimate the cost-effectiveness of an Internet-based problem-solving guided self-help intervention in comparison with enhanced...

Prevalence of ADHD symptoms across clinical stages of major depressive disorder

Tannetje I. Bron, Denise Bijlenga, Judith Verduijn, Brenda W.J.H. Penninx, more

Journal of Affective Disorders > 2016 > 197 > C > 29-35

Depression and ADHD often co-occur in clinical samples. Depression severity may be linked to ADHD symptomatology. We therefore assessed ADHD symptoms across clinical stages of major depressive disorder (MDD).We used 4-year follow-up data of the Netherlands Study of Depression and Anxiety (September 2008 until April 2011), including healthy controls, groups with remitted and current MDD (N=2053; age...
