Background: Comorbid personality disorders may predispose patients with mood disorders to suicide attempts (SAs), but factors mediating this effect are not well known. Methods: Altogether 597 patients from three prospective cohort studies (Vantaa Depression Study, Jorvi Bipolar Study, and Vantaa Primary Care Depression Study) were interviewed at baseline, at 18 months, and in VDS and PC-VDS at 5 years. Personality disorders (PDs) at baseline, number of previous SAs, life-charted time spent in major depressive episodes (MDEs), and precise timing of SAs during follow-up were determined and investigated. Results: Overall, 219 (36.7%) patients had a total of 718 lifetime SAs; 88 (14.7%) patients had 242 SAs during the prospective follow-up. Having any PD diagnosis increased the SA rate, both lifetime and prospectively evaluated, by 90% and 102%, respectively. All PD clusters increased the rate of new SAs, although cluster C PDs more than the others. After adjusting for time spent in MDEs, only cluster C further increased the SA rate (by 52%). Mediation analyses of PD effects on prospectively ascertained SAs indicated significant mediated effects through time at risk in MDEs, but also some direct effects. Limitations: Findings generalizable only to patients with mood disorders. Conclusions: Among mood disorder patients, comorbid PDs increase the risk of SAs to approximately two-fold. The excess risk is mostly due to patients with comorbid PDs spending more time in depressive episodes than those without. Consequently, risk appears highest for PDs that most predispose to chronicity and recurrences. However, also direct risk-modifying effects of PDs exist. (C) 2015 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

Finnish Psychotherapy Quality Register: rationale, development, and baseline results

Suoma E. Saarni, Tom Rosenstrom, Jan-Henry Stenberg, Aino Plattonen, Matti Holi, Jesper Ekelund, Niklas Grano, Niina Komsi, Samuli Saarni

Summary: The Finnish Psychotherapy Quality Register (FPQR) is a comprehensive database that records the effectiveness and quality of psychotherapies. By collecting questionnaires from patients and psychotherapists, the register system can manage psychotherapeutic services and tailor therapy according to feedback. From 2018 to 2021, the FPQR collected baseline data for 7274 unique patients and 336 psychotherapists.

Direction of dependence analysis for pre-post assessments using non-Gaussian methods: a tutorial

Tom H. Rosenstrom, Nikolai O. Czajkowski, Ole Andre Solbakken, Suoma E. Saarni

Summary: This study introduced a method for determining the causal direction of dependence between variables observed before and after psychotherapy, and investigated their properties through simulations. The findings suggest that changes in depressive symptoms may not solely drive changes in social and occupational functioning during psychotherapy, but instead there may be reciprocal causation or the influence of other variables.

Functional Characterization of Six SLCO1B1 (OATP1B1) Variants Observed in Finnish Individuals with a Psychotic Disorder

Katja Hakkinen, Wilma Kiander, Heidi Kidron, Markku Lahteenvuo, Lea Urpa, Jonne Lintunen, Kati-Sisko Vellonen, Seppo Auriola, Minna Holm, Kaisla Lahdensuo, Olli Kampman, Erkki Isometsa, Tuula Kieseppa, Jouko Lonnqvist, Jaana Suvisaari, Jarmo Hietala, Jari Tiihonen, Aarno Palotie, Ari V. Ahola-Olli, Mikko Niemi

Summary: Six rare SLCO1B1 single nucleotide variants (SNVs) were identified in Finnish individuals with a psychotic disorder, which may affect the expression and functionality of the OATP1B1 protein. Functional studies showed that one of these SNVs (c.629G>T) resulted in the loss of OATP1B1 function and decreased membrane protein expression.

Summary: This study investigated the joint factor structure of psychopathology and personality in eight-year-old children. The results showed that correlations between normative and pathological traits mostly reflect one heritable and psychometrically interpretable factor. Furthermore, the association between the factor and low gestational age indicates the need for further study of early developmental mechanisms.

Summary: This exploratory study investigated the association between the age of onset of bipolar I disorder and the threshold for UVB sufficient for vitamin D production. The results showed that the age of onset at locations with UVB threshold below the threshold was 1.66 years younger than those with UVB threshold equal to or above the threshold. The conclusion suggests that UVB and vitamin D may play an important role in the development of bipolar disorder.

Social anxiety disorder is a risk factor for alcohol use problems in the National Comorbidity Surveys

Tom H. Rosenstrom, Fartein Ask Torvik

Summary: According to the self-medication and biopsychosocial models, individuals with social anxiety disorder (SAD) are at increased risk of developing an alcohol use disorder (AUD). The study re-analyzed data from the USA and found that SAD precedes AUD and is the only anxiety disorder that predicts AUD after 10 years. These findings provide support for the causal effects of SAD on AUD.
