ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE@#This study investigated trends in the study of phytochemical treatment of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).@*METHODS@#The Web of Science database (2007-2022) was searched using the search terms "phytochemicals" and "PTSD," and relevant literature was compiled. Network clustering co-occurrence analysis and qualitative narrative review were conducted.@*RESULTS@#Three hundred and one articles were included in the analysis of published research, which has surged since 2015 with nearly half of all relevant articles coming from North America. The category is dominated by neuroscience and neurology, with two journals, Addictive Behaviors and Drug and Alcohol Dependence, publishing the greatest number of papers on these topics. Most studies focused on psychedelic intervention for PTSD. Three timelines show an "ebb and flow" phenomenon between "substance use/marijuana abuse" and "psychedelic medicine/medicinal cannabis." Other phytochemicals account for a small proportion of the research and focus on topics like neurosteroid turnover, serotonin levels, and brain-derived neurotrophic factor expression.@*CONCLUSION@#Research on phytochemicals and PTSD is unevenly distributed across countries/regions, disciplines, and journals. Since 2015, the research paradigm shifted to constitute the mainstream of psychedelic research thus far, leading to the exploration of botanical active ingredients and molecular mechanisms. Other studies focus on anti-oxidative stress and anti-inflammation. Please cite this article as: Gao B, Qu YC, Cai MY, Zhang YY, Lu HT, Li HX, Tang YX, Shen H.

ABSTRACT

Objective: To conduct Brazil's first clinical trial employing 3,4-methylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA)-assisted psychotherapy for post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), given its high prevalence resulting from epidemic violence. Methods: Of 60 volunteers, four matched the inclusion & exclusion criteria. Three patients with PTSD secondary to sexual abuse (diagnosed by the Structured Clinical Interview for DSM-IV and the Clinician Administered PTSD Scale for DSMV-4 [CAPS 4]) completed enrollment and treatment, following a standardized Multidisciplinary Association for Psychedelic Studies protocol consisting of 15 weekly therapy sessions: three with orally administered MDMA with concurrent psychotherapy and music, spaced approximately 1 month apart. CAPS-4 scores two months after the final MDMA session were the primary outcome. Results: No serious adverse events occurred. The most frequent adverse events were somatic pains and anguish. CAPS-4 reductions were always greater than 25 points. The final scores were 61, 27, and 8, down from baseline scores of 90, 78, and 72, respectively. All reductions were greater than 30%, which is indicative of clinically significant improvement. Secondary outcomes included lower Beck Depressive Inventory scores and higher Post-Traumatic Growth Inventory and Global Assessment of Functioning scores. Conclusions: Considering the current limitations in safe and efficacious treatments for PTSD and recent studies abroad with larger patient samples, MDMA-assisted psychotherapy could become a viable treatment in Brazil. Clinical trial registration: RBR-6sq4c9

ABSTRACT

This paper aims to investigate the active components and mechanism of Valerianae Jatamansi Rhizoma et Radix against post-traumatic stress disorder(PTSD) based on network pharmacology and molecular docking. The main components and targets of Valerianae Jatamansi Rhizoma et Radix were obtained by literature mining methods, SwissTargetPrediction, BATMAN and ETCM database. PTSD-related genes were collected from DrugBank, TTD and CTD databases. The protein-protein interaction(PPI) network was constructed based on STRING, and the core targets of Valerianae Jatamansi Rhizoma et Radix in the treatment of PTSD were selected according to the topological parameters. Cytoscape 3.7.2 was used to construct the compound-target network. DAVID database was used for GO enrichment analysis and KEGG enrichment analysis. The relationship network of "compound-target-pathway" was constructed through Cytoscape 3.7.2 to analyze and obtain the key targets and their corresponding components in the network, and their results were verified by molecular docking. The results showed that a total of 47 components(such as valeraldehyde, dihydrovalerin, valerate, chlorovaltrate K, 8-hydroxypinoresinol, 6-hydroxyluteolin, apigenin, farnesin, vanillin, luteolin, kaempferol, glycosmisic acid and pogostemon) of Valerianae Jatamansi Rhizoma et Radix may act on 94 key targets such as CNR1, MAOA, NR3 C1, MAPK14, MAPK8, HTR2 C and DRD2. Totally 29 GO terms were obtained by GO functional enrichment analysis(P<0.05), and 20 signaling pathways were obtained from KEGG pathway enrichment, mainly involving neuroactive ligand-receptor interaction, serotonergic synapse, calcium signaling pathway, cAMP signaling pathway, dopaminergic synapse, retrograde endocannabinoid signaling, neurotrophin signaling pathway, gap junction, cholinergic synapse, estrogen signaling pathway, glutamatergic synapse and long-term potentiation. Molecular docking analysis showed that hydrogen bonding, π-π interaction and hydrophobic effecting may be the main forms of interaction. This study used the network of compound-target-pathway and molecular docking technology to screen the effective components of Valerianae Jatamansi Rhizoma et Radix against PTSD, and explore its anti-PTSD mechanism, so as to provide scientific basis for exploring the anti-PTSD drugs from traditional Chinese medicine and clarifying its mechanism of action.

ABSTRACT

Objetivo: Realizar uma revisão da literatura sobre o efeito da D-cicloserina (DCS) no tratamento do Transtorno de estresse pós-traumático (TEPT). Métodos: Foram revisados 14 ensaios clínicos, revisões sistemáticas e meta-análises selecionados na base de dados PubMed que correspondessem aos descritores D-cicloserina e Transtorno de estresse pós-traumático. Resultados: Os resultados mostram-se heterogêneos, incluindo resultados com e sem benefícios clínicos para o uso da DCS, provavelmente devido à diferença de métodos utilizados nos estudos realizados. Entretanto, a DCS apresenta efeito benéfico quando administrada em pacientes com quadros mais graves de TEPT e quando associada à terapia de exposição com realidade virtual. Conclusão: A DCS tem se mostrado uma opção terapêutica promissora quando associada à terapia de exposição; entretanto, mais estudos devem ser realizados para comprovar sua efetividade no tratamento do TEPT.


Aim: To review the literature about the effect of D-cycloserine (DCS) on the treatment of Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Methods: Were reviewed fourteen clinical trials, systematic reviews and meta-analyzes selected in the PubMed database that corresponded to the descriptors D-cycloserine and Post-traumatic stress disorder. Results: The results are heterogeneous, including results with and without clinical benefit for the use of DCS, probably due to the different methods used in the studies. However, DCS has a beneficial effect when administered to patients with severe PTSD and when associated with virtual reality exposure therapy. Conclusion: It has been shown that DCS is a promising therapeutic choice when associated with exposure therapy, however further studies should be performed to prove its effectiveness in the treatment of PTSD.

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE: Post traumatic stress disorder is frequent in the general population (7.8 percent-lifetime-USA). The selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors are the first choice of treatment but result in low remission rates. This study aims to evaluate the effect of aripiprazole monotherapy for the treatment of post traumatic stress disorder. METHOD: Thirty-two patients diagnosed with post traumatic stress disorder were included in a 16-week open label trial of aripiprazole. They were evaluated at baseline, week 8, and 16 with the Clinician-Administered PTSD Scale, Beck Depression Inventory, Beck Anxiety Inventory, Medical Outcome Study Short Form 36, and Social Adjustment Scale. Statistical analysis were performed with an intention-to-treat approach and last observation carried forward. A general linear model for repeated measures comparing the factor with 3 continuous measures from baseline, 8 and 16 weeks was used. A between-subject factor was included RESULTS: Nine patients discontinued the treatment. The mean aripiprazole dose was 9.6 (± 4.3) mg/day. The mean scores at baseline and endpoint for all measures were: Clinician-Administered PTSD Scale - 82.7 (± 23.1) and 51.4 (± 31.4) (F = 11.247, p = 0.001); Beck Anxiety Inventory - 31.7 (± 13.4) and 25.4 (± 18.2) (F = 8.931, p = 0.011); Social Adjustment Scale - 2.4 (± 0.45) and 2.27 (± 0.57) (F = 8.633, p = 0.012); Medical Outcome Study Short Form 36 - 76.6 (± 14.11) and 94.01 (± 25.06) (F = 10.127 p = 0.007); and Beck Depression Inventory - 26.06 (± 11.6) and 21.35 (± 12.6) (F = 1.580, p = 0.042). In all measurements, the differences were statistically significant. CONCLUSIONS: Patients achieved a good response to treatment with aripiprazole, but placebo-controlled studies are needed for more accurate results.


OBJETIVO: O transtorno de estresse pós-traumático é um quadro prevalente (7,8 por cento-lifetime-EUA) que provoca grande prejuízo aos pacientes. Os inibidores seletivos de recaptação de serotonina, medicação de primeira escolha para o tratamento, mostram baixos índices de remissão. Este estudo pretende apresentar uma diferente escolha de medicamento para tratar o transtorno de estresse pós-traumático. MÉTODO: Trinta e dois pacientes com transtorno de estresse pós-traumático receberam aripiprazol por 16 semanas. Foram submetidos na entrada, 8 e 16 semanas às escalas Clinician-Administered PTSD Scale, Beck Depression Inventory, Beck Anxiety Inventory, Medical Outcome Study Short Form 36 e Social Adjustment Scale. Foi usado o modelo linear generalizado para medidas repetidas comparando o fator com as três medidas contínuas nos três pontos de avaliação. Foi feita uma comparação entre sujeitos (grupo tratamento) usando modelo linear generalizado univariado. Usamos a intenção de tratamento e a estratégia da última observação com endpoint (Last Observation Carried Forward). RESULTADOS: Nove pacientes descontinuaram antes da segunda avaliação. A dose média foi 9,6 (± 4,3) mg/dia. As medidas na entrada e no final do tratamento foram: Clinician-Administered PTSD Scale - 82,7 (± 23,1) e 51,4 (± 31,4) (F = 11,247, p = 0,001); Beck Anxiety Inventory - 31,7 (± 13,4) e 25,4 (± 18,2) (F = 8,931, p = 0,011); Social Adjustment Scale - 2,4 (± 0,45) e 2,27 (± 0,57) (F = 8,633, p = 0,012); Medical Outcome Study Short Form 36 - 76,6 (± 14,11) e 94,01 (± 25,06) (F = 10,127 p = 0,007); e Beck Depression Inventory - 26,06 (± 11,6) e 21,35 (± 12,6) (F = 1,580, p = 0,042). Em todas as medidas, as diferenças foram estatisticamente significativas. CONCLUSÕES: O aripiprazol alcançou uma boa resposta em pacientes com transtorno de estresse pós-traumático, mas para resultados mais acurados ainda são necessários estudos controlados com placebo.

ABSTRACT

OBJETIVOS: Nesta revisão narrativa, o objetivo foi descrever as opções farmacológicas para o tratamento do transtorno de estresse pós-traumático nos casos de intolerância, resistência, refratariedade ou impossibilidade de utilizar antidepressivos, especialmente inibidores seletivos da recaptação da serotonina. MÉTODO: Consulta às bases de dados ISI Web of Science e PubMed em busca de estudos originais sobre o tratamento farmacológico do transtorno de estresse pós-traumático em diferentes cenários clínicos. RESULTADOS: Evidências preliminares apontam para a utilidade de drogas como a risperidona, a olanzapina, a lamotrigina e o prazosin como estratégias para o cenário clínico em tela. A escolha do medicamento de segunda linha deve levar em conta não só os sintomas, como também as comorbidades, os tratamentos prévios, as interações farmacológicas, os efeitos colaterais e as condições físicas do paciente. CONCLUSÕES: Futuros ensaios clínicos randomizados ainda são necessários para estabelecer com clareza alternativas farmacológicas aos antidepressivos para o tratamento do transtorno de estresse pós-traumático.


OBJECTIVES: In this narrative review, we aimed to describe different pharmacological strategies for the treatment of patients with post-traumatic stress disorder who display different levels of intolerance, resistance, refractoriness, or who are unable to take to antidepressants, especially serotonin reuptake inhibitors. METHOD: We searched the ISI web of science and the PubMed for original studies focusing in the treatment of PTSD in different clinical scenarios. RESULTS: Preliminary evidence pointed towards the efficacy of drugs such as risperidone, olanzapine, lamotrigine and prazosin as strategies to be employed in the above mentioned clinical scenarios. The choice of a specific "second line" drug should take into account not only symptoms, but also pattern of comorbidities, previous response to other treatments, pharmacological interactions, side-effects, and patient's physical conditions. CONCLUSIONS: Future randomized controlled trials should be performed in order to unveil which drugs should be prescribed in the absence of adequate treatment and response to serotonin reuptake inhibitors.

ABSTRACT

La neurobiología del Trastorno de Estrés Postraumático (TEPT) abarca diferentes sistemas de neurotransmisión. En el presente artículo se revisa la neurobiología del TEPT, describiendo las alteraciones que se producen en el eje hipotálamico-hipófiso-adrenal, el sistema nervioso simpático, la función tiroidea, neuropéptido Y, sustancia P y el sistema opioide entre otros. Las neuroimágenes brindan elementos que sugieren que después de un trauma psicológico los cambios biológicos no sólo están limitados a la disregulación de sistemas neuroquímicos ya que se incorporan además alteraciones en la función cerebral y su estructura. Se describen además las implicaciones terapéuticas más importantes. Palabras clave: Neurobiología, neurotransmisión, hipotálamo, hipófisis, sistema opioide, neuroquímicos, neuroimágenes.

ABSTRACT

Os autores apresentam uma revisão de literatura sobre a farmacoterapia do transtorno de estresse pós-traumático (TEPT). Poucos ensaios clínicos controlados já foram feitos nesta área, mas o interesse no transtorno é crescente. Os antidepressivos, especialmente aqueles com atividade serotonérgica, parecem ser tratamentos farmacológicos eficazes no TEPT, seja como tratamento primário ou em associação com a psicoterapia

ABSTRACT

O Transtorno Bipolar (THB) näo é somente uma condiçäo endógena. Severos eventos negativos durante a vida influenciam o desenvolvimento do primeiro episódio e alteram o curso do THB durante a vida. O Transtorno de Estresse Pós-Traumático (TEPT) é uma severa e incapacitante doença mental que afeta uma significativa parcela da populaçäo, em algum momento de suas vidas. A presença concomitante de TEPT e THB parece mais freqüente que anteriormente sugerido, e pacientes psicóticos com história de trauma tem sintomas mais severos e maior tendência a abusar de substância psicoativas ilícitas. Pensamentos intrusivos e pesadelos ocorrem com freqüência nos pacientes com TEPT e têm sido associados aos transtornos de humor. O tratamento farmacológico dessa comorbidade ainda está relacionado a estudo empíricos ou näo-controlados. Neste artigo, säo revisados aspectos atuais relacionados a essa comorbidade e enfatizados aspectos referentes à epidemiologia, etiologia, curso e tratamento farmacológico da comorbidade entre TEPT e THB. Especialmente, este estudo enfatiza a importância de avaliar sistematicamente a história de trauma em pacientes com THB

ABSTRACT

As intervençöes usadas no manejo do transtorno do estresse pós-traumático (TEPT) focalizam-se em: (1) prevençäo do desenvolvimento da doença após um evento traumático, (2) tratamento do quadro já estabelecido e (3) manutençäo do funcionamento e da qualidade de vida em longo prazo. Uma variedade de tratamentos psicoterápicos e farmacológicos tem sido proposta para o tratamentos do TEPT. Entretanto, nem todas as modalidades de tratamento apresentam comprovaçäo científica. No presente artigo, os autores apresentam as modalidades de tratamentos do TEPT amparadas em evidências e discutem sua aplicabilidade e limitaçöes

ABSTRACT

Os transtornos relacionados ao estresse pós-traumático - transtorno de estresse pós-traumático e transtorno agudo de estresse - têm recebido cada vez maior atençäo de clínicos e pesquisadores. Um quadro típico de sintomas surge após um indivíduo ver, estar envolvido, ou apenas ouvir sobre um evento extremamente estressor. As principais características clínicas säo a recordaçäo aflitiva do trauma, um padräo de evitaçäo de estímulos relacionados ao trauma e distanciamento afetivo, e uma constante hiperestimulaçäo autonômica. O tratamento envolve psicoterapia cognitivo-comportamental e o uso de psicofármacos
