Here, we present the complete genome sequences of Mycobacterium smegmatis phages Chewbacca, Reptar3000, and Riparian, isolated from soil in Las Vegas, NV. The phages were isolated and annotated by undergraduate students enrolled in the Phage Discovery course offered by the School of Life Sciences at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas.

Objective: Quetiapine, combined with lithium or divalproex, demonstrates efficacy in the maintenance treatment of bipolar I disorder. This study investigated the efficacy and safety of quetiapine monotherapy as maintenance treatment in bipolar I disorder compared with switching to placebo or lithium.

Method: Patients aged ≥ 18 years with DSM-IV-diagnosed bipolar I disorder and a current or recent manic, depressive, or mixed episode received open-label quetiapine (300-800 mg/d) for 4-24 weeks.

Article Synopsis
  • A study evaluated the impacts of divalproex sodium on brain volumes in patients with mild to moderate Alzheimer’s disease using MRI scans over 24 months.
  • The results indicated that participants receiving divalproex experienced a significantly higher decline in hippocampal and brain volumes compared to those on placebo, along with a faster decline in cognitive function as measured by the Mini-Mental State Examination.
  • The findings suggest that divalproex treatment is linked to accelerated brain volume loss and potentially increased cognitive impairment, although the long-term effects remain unclear.
