Neuropsychiatry สาขาหนึ่งของการแพทย์ เป็นการเรียนรู้เกี่ยวกับโรคที่มีอาการทั้งทางจิต cognition และประสาทวิทยา
Mx of common neuropsychiatric problems 1. Mild cognitive impairment 2. Medication - induced movement disorders
Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) defn • Remains a research construct • Memory loss in the transitional zone between normal aging memory loss and very early Alzheimer’s disease = Dementia prodrome, incipient dementia, isolated memory impairment, cognitive impairment no dementia. = Pathological, not a manifestation of aging
MCI its construct MCI has been proposed to identify the individual at an earlier point in the cognitive decline such that if therapeutic interventions become available, clinician can intervene at this juncture
MCI types 1. a-MCI => memory impairment (amnesia) 2. md MCI=>multiple domain MCI=> language, executive function and visuospatial skills 2.1 md -MCI+a 2.2 md -MCI-a 3. Single nonmemory domain MCI
a-MCI : Diagnosis criteria 1. Memory complaint usually corroborated by an informant 2. Objective memory impairment for age (test = -1.5 SD) 3. Essentially preserved general cognitive function 4. Largely intact functional activities 5. Not demented
MCI :- objective memory test :- • Word list learning • Paragraph recall • No generally accepted instrument for this determination • Neuropsychological testing may be useful
Table 1. The Short Test of Mental Status Maximum Subtests Testing score Orientation Name; address; current location 8 (building); city; state; date (day); month; year Attention Digit span (present at 1 per second;) 7 record longest correct span) 2-9-6-8-3 5-7-1-9-4-6 2-1-5-9-3-6-2 Learning and Learn our unrelated words:apple, 4 immediate recall Mr Johnson, charity, tunnel. Record the number of trials for acquisition (maximum of 4 trials) Calculation 5 * 13 = 4 65-7 = 58/2 = 29 + 11 = Abstraction/ Similarities: orange/banana, 3 similarities dog/horse, table/bookcase. Information President; first president; number of 4 weeks per year; define an island Construction Copy the Necker cube. Draw a clock 4 face showing 11:10. Recall The 4 words apple, Mr Johnson, 4 charity, tunnel. Total Score* 38 * Total score = sum of the subtest scores - (number of trials for acquisition -1). For example, if a patient learned all 4 words no the first trial nothing is subtracted from the sum of the subtest scores. If a patient required 4 trials to learn the 4 words, then 3 was subtracted from the sum of the subtest score.
MCI : Biological abnormalities 1. Over - representation of the apolipoprotein E4 allele 2. Volumetric loss in entorhinal cortex and hippocampus measured by MRI neuronal counts in postmortem 3. Increased brain markers of oxidative stress 4. Abnormalities of the cholinergic system 5. Depression or medical co-morbidity So-MCI is heterogeneous and not all MCI will progress to AD
MCI : treatment - No FDA approved medicine But if Dr is convinced that the attending MCI is an incipient AD, then he may wish to Rx with cholinesterase inhibitor or memantine
MCI : treatment Donepesil risk of developing A.D. during the first year but by the end of 3 year the risk was the same as these taking Vit E or placebo Galantamine (Reminyl) = no improvement
Currently available treatment 1. Acetylcholinesterase inhibitors = 1st choice donepezil , rivastigmine ,galantamine some research said donepezil lowered the risk of developing AD only during the first year 2. Putative treatments 2.1 antiglutamatergic drugs = memantine 2.2 nootropics = piracetam 2.3 antioxidants :- ginko biloba, VitA, C, E, selegiline, MAOI, 3. Anti-inflammatory drugs 3.1 aspirin 3.2 NSAID
Currently available treatment 4. ERT 5. Visionary interventions 5.1 targeting neuropatholgical substrates 5.2 regulation of neuronal plasticity 6. Treating co-morbidity, controlling risk factors 7. Psychosocial intervention
MCI Rx of the co-morbidity Vascular risk factors :- high BP High serum cholesterol High midlife diastolic BP White matter hyperintensity Presence of apolipoprotein E4 genotype Low serum B12 and folate
Psychosocial intervention emotional and mental stimulation 1. Extensive social network 2. Participating cognitively stimulating activities
MCI : Rx with AChE • Autopsy-based study reported similar reductions in basal forebrain immunoreactive neurons = selective loss of cholinergic neurons in MCI and AD => cholinergiic differentiation of the cerebral cortex • Long term effects will be via modification of APP metabolism • However a study observered specific upregulation of choline acetyltransferase in MCI subjects = compensatory process in preclinical phase and suggest limitation of AChE inhibitor efficacy at this stage
MCI : Rx with antiglutamatergic drugs • Overactivity of excitatory amino acid glutamate neurotoxcity • NMDA- mediated excitotoxicity tau phosphorylation NT = one of the major pathological substrates of AD • Memantine = NMDA - receptor antagonist
MCI : Rx with nootropics • Piracetam • Enhance memory function • Nonspecific action :- energy metabolism, cholinergic mechanism, excitatory amino acid receptor - mediated function and steroid sensitivity
MCI : Rx antioxidants • Large amounts of unsaturated lipids and catecholamines in the brain , β - protein precursor, Aβ, presenilins and APOE are link to reactive oxygen species (ROS) production apotosis • Oxidative stress atherogenesis • Higher ascorbic acid and β- carotene plasma level better memory • Ginko biloba, VitA, C, E = free radical scarvenger, MAOI = reduce free radical formation
MCI : Rx with anti inflammatory drugs • Inflammatory process are involved in the pathogenesis of AD • AD pt has upregulation of cytokines, acute phase proteins, activation of the complement regulatory proteins, accumulation of activated microglia • Reduced prevalence of AD in pt with arthritis • Rx with aspirin, NSAID, COX-2 inhibitors
MCI : Rx with ERT • Estrogen acts via ERα และ ERβ activate nerve growth factors, synaptogenesis, modulate function of ACh, 5-HT, DA, NA, and cerebral blood flow • Estrogen has intrinsic antioxidant activity, neuroprotective effect by promoting nonamyloidgenic β- secretase processing of APP
Targeting neuropathological substrates 1. Reduction of Aβproduction 2. Inhibitors of Aβaggregation However APP transgenic animals develop behavioral abnormality before extensive amyloid deposition occurs 3. Neurofibrillary changes better correlate with disease severity than amyloidosis 4. Intervention in tau hyperphosphorylation
Regulation of neuronal plasticity 1. Nerve growth factor (NGF) =neurotropic factor for the basal forebrain cholinergic neuron
Medication - induced movement disorders 1. All first generation antipsychotics : Chlorpromazine Thioridazine Perphenazine Haloperidol 2. Some second generation anti-psychotics ; usually dose related
Medication - induced movement disorders 3. Nonantipsychotic psychotripics Lithium Anticonvulsants Antidepressants 4. Nonpsychotropics Prochlorperazine Metoclopramide
Neuroleptic - induced movement disorders 1. Acute dystonia 2. Akathisia 3. Parkinsonian - like 4. Tardive dyskinesia
Neuroleptic - induced acute dystonia : Pathophysiology = not known, may be acute saturation of D2 receptors
Neuroleptic induced acute dystonia • Early - onset during the course of treatment with neuroleptic • M > F, age < 30 years > • Receive high potency anti-psychotic medication
Neuroleptic induced acute dystonia :Dx A. 1 (or more) of the following signs or symptoms has developed in association with the use of neuroleptic medication 1. Abn positioning of the head and neck in relation to body (retrocollis, tortiollis) 2. Spasms of the jaw muscles (trismus, gaping, grimacing )
Neuroleptic induced acute dystonia :Dx 3. Impaired & wallowing (dyspepsia) speaking or breathing 4. Thickened or slurred speech due to hypertonic or enlarged tongue 5. Eye deviated up, down, or sideward (oculogyric crisis )
Neuroleptic induced acute dystonia :Dx 6. Tongue protrusion or tongue dysfunction 7. Abn positioning of the distal limb or trunk
Neuroleptic induced acute dystonia :Dx B. A developed within 7 days of starting or rapidly raising the dose of neurolepticmedication or of reducing a medication to or prevent acute EPS
Treatment : 1. Anticholinergic or antihistaminergic drugs 2. If fails to respond to 3 doses of these drug with in 2 hrs, then consider other causes for the dystonia 3. After resolution of the acute episode, give oral anticholinergic agents
Neuroleptic - induced acute akathisia : Pathophysiology = DA neurons in the ventral tegmental area
Neuroleptic - induced tardive dyskinesia : Pathophysiology 1. Sustained D2 receptor blockade receptor hypersensitivity 2. Blockade of presynaptic DA receptors glutamatergic transmission oxidative stress cell death
Neuroleptic - induced acute akathisia • Risk = middle aged women • Occurs at some point in the course of medication (antipsychotics, antidepressants and sympathomimetics)
Neuroleptic - induced acute akathisia : Dx A. subjective complaints of restlessness after exposure to a neuroleptic medication B. At least one-of the following 1. fidgety movement or swinging of the legs 2. rocking from foot to foot while standing 3. pacing to relieve restlessness 4. inability to sit or stand still for at least several minutes
Neuroleptic - induced acute akathisia : Dx C. onset of A and B occurs within 4 weeks of initiating or increasing the dose of neuroleptic , or of reducing medication used to Rx or prevent acute EPS
Neuroleptic - induced acute akathisia : Rx 1. Reduce neuroleptic medication dosage 2. Attempt to treat with B - adrenergic receptor antagonists, anticholinergic drugs, cyproheptadine 3. Considering changing the neueroleptics
Neuroleptic induced parkinsonism :Pathophysiology = DA activity, this can be induced by 1. Depletion of DA in presynaptic stores (reserpine) 2. DA receptor blocking = antipsychotic and atypical calcium blocking agent (cinnarizine)
