Metabolomics provides powerful tools that can inform about heterogeneity in disease and response to treatments. In this exploratory study, we employed an electrochemistry-based targeted metabolomics platform to assess the metabolic effects of three randomly-assigned treatments: escitalopram, duloxetine, and Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT) in 163 treatment-naïve outpatients with major depressive disorder. Serum samples from baseline and 12 weeks post-treatment were analyzed using targeted liquid chromatography-electrochemistry for metabolites related to tryptophan, tyrosine metabolism and related pathways.

The incidence of glossopharyngeal neuralgia (GPN) is low, but the pain of GPN is severe and seriously affects the patient's life. We report a case with GPN, who had pain relief after treatment with high-voltage pulsed radiofrequency (PRF) combined with duloxetine. This case indicates that high-voltage PRF combined with duloxetine may be an effective approach for reducing pain in patients with GPN, and duloxetine may have a potential advantage for patients with evoked pain.

Objective: Although quetiapine has been approved for use in schizophrenic patients, its individualized dosage regimen remains unclear, especially with respect to drug-drug interactions (DDIs). Thus, we investigated the potential DDIs and optimal initial dosage of quetiapine in schizophrenic patients based on population pharmacokinetics (PPK).
Methods: Ninety-six schizophrenic patients treated with quetiapine were included to establish the PPK model, which also includes coadministration of multiple drugs.
