Subanalysis of the CYP-GUIDES Trial: CYP2D6 Functional Stratification and Operational Timeline Selection.

CYP-GUIDES (Cytochrome Psychotropic Genotyping Under Investigation for Decision Support) was a Randomized Controlled Trial comparing 2 outcomes in hospitalized patients with major depressive disorder treated according to the patient's CYP2D6 genotype and functional status versus standard psychotropic therapy. The primary outcome was hospital Length of Stay (LOS) and the secondary was Re-Admission Rate (RAR) 30 days after discharge. Methodology, total results and database of the trial have been published.

Results of the CYP-GUIDES randomized controlled trial: Total cohort and primary endpoints.

CYP-GUIDES (Cytochrome Psychotropic Genotyping Under Investigation for Decision Support) is a randomized controlled trial (RCT) comparing 2 outcomes in hospitalized patients with major depressive disorder (MDD) treated according to the patient's CYP2D6 genotype and functional status versus standard psychotropic therapy. The primary outcome was hospital Length of Stay (LOS) and the secondary outcome was the Re-Admission Rate (RAR) 30 days after discharge. The trial setting was the Institute of Living at Hartford Hospital.

Predictors of response to synchronized transcranial magnetic stimulation for major depressive disorder.

Background: Synchronized transcranial magnetic stimulation (sTMS) is a new modality to reduce symptoms of major depressive disorder (MDD). sTMS uses rotating neodymium magnets to deliver low-field stimulation matched to the individual alpha frequency (IAF). A previous multisite study showed that sTMS significantly reduced MDD symptoms in the per-protocol sample.
