Background/aim: Hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) may be linked to an elevated risk of bipolar disorder, though the precise mechanism remains unclear. This study investigated the likelihood of bipolar disorder in patients with HS.
Patients And Methods: We analyzed the electronic health records of 60,850 patients with HS and 60,850 matched controls from the TriNetX network, excluding those with a prior bipolar disorder diagnosis. Propensity score matching was conducted (1:1 ratio), and hazard ratios (HRs) were calculated to assess the risk of new-onset bipolar disorder in patients with HS compared to controls.
Results: After matching, the HR for developing bipolar disorder in patients with HS was 1.549 [95% confidence interval (CI)=1.270-1.889] after a 1-year follow-up, remaining significant in 3- and 5-year follow-ups and sensitivity analyses. Stratified by sex, female patients with HS showed a notably higher risk (HR=1.509, 95%CI=1.353-1.683), while no significant increase was seen in males.
Conclusion: Patients with HS have a significantly elevated risk of developing bipolar disorder, especially among females. Healthcare providers should be mindful of this association when treating patients with HS.

The release of synaptic vesicles (SVs) at the synaptic junction is a complex process involving various specialized proteins that work in unison. Among these, Bassoon has emerged as a significant protein, particularly noted for its association with various neurological and aging-related diseases. Due to its structural and functional roles, Bassoon has become a focus of recent research, especially in understanding its implications in neurodegenerative and psychiatric disorders.

Background: Quetiapine, an antipsychotic, is registered for schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, and as an add-on therapy for major depressive disorder. Its anxiolytic and sedative effects make it attractive for off-label uses like insomnia, despite cardiovascular and metabolic side effects. The global increase in quetiapine use over the past decade warrants an examination of its prescribing patterns, especially off-label.

An auditory steady-state response (ASSR) is an electrophysiological response to periodic stimuli that reflects the synchronization of endogenous oscillations. The 40-Hz ASSR is reduced in patients with schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, and autism spectrum disorder, making it a candidate biomarker for these psychiatric disorders. Previous studies have revealed that experimental conditions such as stimulus duration and inter-stimulus interval tend to affect ASSR, suggesting that novelty detection may play an important role in determining the magnitude of ASSR.

Importance: Peripheral (blood-based) biomarkers for psychiatric illness could benefit diagnosis and treatment, but research to date has typically been low throughput, and traditional case-control studies are subject to potential confounds of treatment and other exposures. Large-scale 2-sample mendelian randomization (MR) can examine the potentially causal impact of circulating proteins on neuropsychiatric phenotypes without these confounds.
Objective: To identify circulating proteins associated with risk for schizophrenia (SCZ), bipolar disorder (BD), and major depressive disorder (MDD) as well as cognitive task performance (CTP).

Recent advances in microbial pathogen research have highlighted the potential of gut microbe-based microbial medicine. One of the most extensively studied biological pathways is the gut-brain axis, which has been shown to reverse neurological disorders. Evidence from animal-based studies of dysbiosis suggest complex behavioral changes, such as alterations in sociability and anxiety, can be modulated through gut microbiota.
