Salivary oxytocin levels were associated with self-esteem and perceived social support across children and adolescents with and without ASD, whereas inflammatory markers showed no significant associations. These findings suggest that oxytocin-related processes may contribute to socio-emotional functioning regardless of diagnostic status.

Thirty-five patients with schizophrenia who received adenine, Ninjin-yoei-to, or lithium carbonate were included in the treatment group. Eighty-one patients with schizophrenia comprised the control group. In the two-way mixed ANOVA, treatment increased white blood cell and neutrophil counts in patients with schizophrenia, particularly from 2 months after initiation.

Expression of the VIP/PACAP receptor gene, Vipr2, was selectively upregulated in the nucleus accumbens of spontaneous hypertensive rats (SHRs), an animal model of ADHD, with no changes observed in DNA methylation levels at the CpG islands of the gene. This region-specific overexpression may contribute to ADHD-related behaviors in SHRs. https://t.co/QB5y12PWYD

Mitochondrial dysfunction is implicated in depression, and a pillow-based ELF-ELME device for nighttime use improved depressive symptoms in a preliminary 8-week open-label study of MDD without adverse events. This non-invasive intervention may offer a safe and feasible adjunctive treatment option.

ADHD symptoms were associated with lower happiness, largely mediated by somatic and mental health factors—particularly physical symptoms, confusion/difficulty concentrating, and depression—highlighting the importance of targeting these modifiable mediators to improve well-being.

Delirium involves neurotransmitter imbalances and disrupted neural networks. Although lacosamide may theoretically treat delirium by reducing neuronal hyperexcitability via sodium channel modulation, clinical evidence is lacking. Sodium channels in the enteric nervous system mean lacosamide can cause gastrointestinal dysmotility independent of anticholinergic pathways. Given these risks and potential disruptions to the gut-brain axis, off-label use requires extreme caution and rigorous monitoring.

We investigated how chronic exposure to nicotine, ethanol, or their combination during adolescence influences adult conditioned place preference (CPP) for nicotine. No significant CPP was observed in any of the drug-exposed groups, suggesting adolescent exposure to addictive substances does not uniformly increase vulnerability to nicotine reward.
