Vortioxetine, which functions as a 5-HT3, 5-HT1D, and 5-HT7 antagonist, a 5-HT1A agonist, and a 5-HT1B partial agonist, is a recently launched antidepressant approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration for treating adult major depressive disorder. Although hematological adverse effects have been associated with antidepressants, massive bleeding is a rare but potentially life-threatening complication. In this case report, we present a young woman who experienced abnormal bleeding tendencies, with manifestations including tarry stools, ecchymosis, and massive uterine bleeding, while undergoing vortioxetine treatment.

Assessing the condition of every schizophrenia patient correctly normally requires lengthy and frequent interviews with professionally trained doctors. To alleviate the time and manual burden on those mental health professionals, this paper proposes a multimodal assessment model that predicts the severity level of each symptom defined in Scale for the Assessment of Thought, Language, and Communication (TLC) and Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale (PANSS) based on the patient's linguistic, acoustic, and visual behavior. The proposed deep-learning model consists of a multimodal fusion framework and four unimodal transformer-based backbone networks.

Functional connectivities of the amygdala support emotional and cognitive processing. Life-span development of resting-state functional connectivities (rsFC) of the amygdala may underlie age-related differences in emotion regulatory mechanisms. To date, age-related changes in amygdala rsFC have been reported through adolescence but not as thoroughly for adulthood.

Background: Depression is a common comorbidity in spinocerebellar ataxias (SCAs) but its association with ataxia progression is not well understood.

Objectives: To study the prevalence and influence of depressive symptoms in SCAs.

Methods: We studied 300 participants with SCA 1, 2, 3 and 6 from the Clinical Research Consortium for Spinocerebellar Ataxias (CRC-SCA) and repeatedly measured depressive symptoms by the 9-item Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-9) along with other clinical features including ataxia, functional status, and quality of life every 6 months for 2 years.
