Depression is common psychiatric diseases characterized by diverse physical and emotional symptoms including low mood, loss of interest in pleasurable activities, and feelings of worthlessness. Depression causes of death and disability. The first antidepressant was created by the idea that central serotonin mechanism. Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor, fluoxetine is the first-line drug in the treatment of depressive disorder and their few side effects as opposed to tricyclic antidepressants. Not all people with depression respond adequately to standard treatments. Korean music playing/listening actions appear to be a reliable approach to developing recovery from depression.

Background: Prevalence of depression comorbid with neurologic disorders such as Alzheimer' disease (AD), Parkinson's disease (PD) and vascular dementia (VD) is higher than that of primary depression. Antidepressant medications, suggested by many researches for depression comorbid with neurologic disorders such as AD, PD and VD, are mainly selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRI). Objective: The primary objective of this study is the evaluation of antidepressant drug therapy for AD, PD and VD. Method: This study was a retrospective study based on medical records, carried out for 3 years and 6 months (Jan. 2007~Jul. 2010). Patients, diagnosed as comorbid depression through Beck Depression Inventory (BDI), Cornell Depression Scale (CDS), Geriatric Depression Scale (GDS) among neurologic out-patients of Chungnam National University Hospital because of AD, PD and VD, were selected. The results were evaluated by efficacy and safety of antidepressant drug therapy. Results: In result, the prescribing rates of antidepressants were 30%, 55% and 40% for each AD, PD and VD. Depression cure rates of patients receiving antidepressants vs patients not receiving antidepressants were 40% vs 39%, 33% vs 23% and 38% vs 30% for AD, PD and VD. The frequencies of prescriptoin of SSRI were 21%, 11% and 27% for each AD, PD and VD. The frequencies of prescriptoin of benzodiazepine (BZD) was 61%, 82% and 61% for each AD, PD and VD. The ratio of single BZD prescription was more than that of combination prescription of antidepressants. Tricyclic antidepressants (TCA) were rarely prescribed. The rate of patients with BZD-related side effects was 54%. The most frequent side effects of BZD were dizziness (30%), drowsiness (21%) and headache (16%). Side effects of SSRI were rare. Conclusion: In conclusion, the frequencies of prescription of antidepressants were not common for AD, PD and VD. There was little difference in depression cure rate between patient receiving antidepressants and not receiving. Even though SSRI has to be the highest priority of usage, the frequencies of prescription of SSRI were lower than those of BZD. Additional researches and efforts are required to improve antidepressant drug therapy for neurologic disorders such as AD, PD and VD.

Objectives : The diagnosis of depression is based on a highly variable set of symptoms. Therefore, depression should not be viewed as a single disease, but a heterogenous syndrome comprised of different pathophysiologies. There are several subtypes of depression which were already incorporated in DSM-IV. This article provides a systematic review of pharmacological treatments of two recognized subtypes of depression-dysthymic disorder and atypical depression. Methods : Systematic search of relevant literatures on dysthymic disorder and atypical depression was performed by proposed search strategy of the Clinical Research Center for Depression of Korean Health 21 R&D Project. All identified literatures were carefully reviewed and classified according to SIGN grading system and summarized in a narrative manner. Results : For the treatment of dysthymic disorder and atypical depression, selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors( SSRIs) and moclobemide have more evidence than the other antidepressants. SSRIs and moclobemide showed superior tolerability than tricyclic antidepressants. Conclusions : The authors proposed treatment recommendations for dysthymic disorder and atypical depression by the methods of evidence-based medicine(EBM). However, guideline developing methods of EBM also have several inevitable limitations. Therefore, in the absence of clear and significant differences in efficacy, the choice of medication must be individualized for a particular patient based on psychiatrist's own clinical decision.

A on-off study was designed to evaluate the effects of addition of transdermal esrtradiol to tricyclic antidepressants on depression level, vasomotor symptom(hot flush), sexual functions and hormonal status, plasma 5-hydroxyindoleascetic acid(5-HIAA) level in postmenopausal women with depression. Plasma level of estradiol, progesterone, LH, FSH, prolactin and 5-HIAA was measured by Time-resolved fluoroimmunoassay and HPLC(High Performance Liquid Chromatography). To asses their symptoms, the BDI(Beck Depression Inventory) and modified symptom scale, extracted from women's health questionnaire were used. Depression score, sexual function score were decreased by the last 4-weeks of addition of transdermal estradiol to antidepressant treatment, not Significant, but vasomotor symptom (hot flushes) score was decreased significantly(p<0.05) by the last 4-weeks of the given treatment. Thus, during addition of transdermal estradiol to antidepressants treatment, only vasomotor symptom(hot flushes) was improved significantly, but depression level was not changed in postmenopausal women with depression. Plasma FSH, estradiol and prolactin level was not changed in postmenopausal women with depression. Plasma FSH, estradiol and prolactin levels were increased by the last 4-weeks of the treatment. There were not significant correlations between clinical symptoms and plasma hormonal status and 5-HIAA level in baseline. After the last 4-weeks of transdermal estradiol treatment, the change of depression score was correlated significantly with change of serum prolactin and 5-HIAA level and the change of vasomotor symptom score was correlated significantly with the change of plasma prolactin level.

신체질환 환자들에서의 우울증은 일차진료의나 정신과자문의가 흔히 부딪치는 임상적 문제들이다. 본 저자는 이런 환자들을 효과적으로 평가하고 치료하기 위한 방법들을 알아보고자 하였다. 첫째, 환자의 의학적 및 정신과적 상태를 동시에 평가해야 한다. 둘째, 신체질환 환자에서 우울의 평가는 다면적인 접근을 고려하는 것이 바람직하다. 때로는 심리적 도구를 이용하는 것도 좋은 평가 방법이다. 치료는 첫째, 기질적 원인을 찾아서 제거하는 일이 무엇보다 중요하다. 둘째, 정신사회적 치료로는 정신과적 치료에 대한 저항을 다루어야 하고 심한 신체적 질환에 따른 낙담 반응을 처리해 주는 일이다. 셋째, 생물학적인 치료방법으로는 적절한 항우울제를 선택하는 것이 중요하다. 선체질환 환자들에서 항우울제의 선택은 환자의 일차적인 우울증상, 약물역학 및 약물역동, 항우울제의 부작용을 평가한 후 고려한다. 이 외에도 약물-질병 및 약물-약물 상호작용의 가능성에 관해 각별히 주의를 기울일 필요가 있다. SSRI약물, bupropion, venlafaxine과 같은 새로운 항우울제들이 신체질환 환자들의 우울증 치료에 효과적이나 삼환계 항우울제는 통증장애 환자들에서는 아직도 효과적으로 사용될 수 있는 약물이다. 신체질환 환자들에서 항우울제로 우울증이 잘 치료되지 않는 경우에는 전기충격요법의 사용을 고려해 본다.

새로운 항우울제가 다량 개발되어 임상에 도입되면서 항우울제의 약리 작용에 대한 이해도 넓어졌다. 그에 따라 얻어진 새로운 정보와 이론을 소아청소년기 우울증 치료에 반영할 필요가 있다. 소아청소년기 최신지견에 따라 합리적인 우울증 치료 지침 마련을 위하여 고려하여야 할 주요 사항들과 새로운 항우울제의 특징들을 살펴보고자 하였다. 전자문헌 데이터베이스 검색 도구를 사용하여'new', 'antidepressant', 'children'의 검색어로 얻어진 97개 고찰 문헌 가운데 특히 치료 지침과 새로운 항우울제의 정신약리작용에 관한 것을 선별하여 중점적으로 고찰하였다. 아울러 새로운 항우울제 각 약물에 대한 치료 효과에 대한 문헌을 추가로 선택 참고하였다. 또 약물상호 작용과 안전성에 관하여 미국 식품보건국과 보건후생부의 공식사이트에서 제공되는 문헌을 참고하였다. 1) 우울 장애의 임상 경과, 치료 기간, 및 치료 효과는 성인기 치료 지침에서 제시된 바를 채택한 경우가 많았다. 2) 소아청소년기 우울증에 대한 항우울제의 효과에 대한 연구 결과는 TCA가 효과와 부작용에서 SSRI보다 뒤져서 소아청소년 우울장애의 일차 치료제로 권장 된다. 3) 새로운 항우울제는 아직 소아청소년에게 치료 경험과 임상 연구 결과가 부족하다. 4) SSRI와 새로운 항우울제들은 두 개 이상을 병용할 때 약동학적 및 약력학적인 상호작용이 있을 수 있다. 5) 소아청소년기 항우울제의 임상적 효과가 성인기와 다른 것은 발달적 측면에서 설명할 수 있겠으나 직접적인 증거가 좀더 쌓일 필요가 있다. 소아청소년기 우울증의 약물 치료 지침은 임상 연구 소견과 임상적 경험을 종합하여 세울 수 있다. 그러나 약물 치료 지침은 임상가가 합리적인 판단을 내릴 수 있도록 하는 참고 자료이며 그 목적을 다하기 위하여 새로운 연구 결과가 있을 때 마다 새로 개정 되어야 할 것이다. 중 외톨이-왕따에 해당되는 청소년의 어머니는 비외톨이 청소년의 어머니보다 자녀들의 사고 문제 및 우울/불안 등의 정서적 문제를 더 높게 평가하였다. 그러나, 자녀들에 대한 양육 태도에 대해서는 차이를 두지 않는 것으로 보인다. 향후 보다 많은 환자들을 대상으로 한 추가 연구가 필요할 것이다. 강압적인 양육행동을 변화시키기 위해서는 주의력결핍과잉행동장애 아동 부모의 양육 스트레스, 아동에 대한 역기능적 사고 및 양육 효능감을 다루어야 할 뿐 아니라, 부모의 우울감을 치료 시 고려해야 할 것이다.순차처리항목과 계산능력에서 유의하게 높았고(p<.05), KEDI-WISC를 이용한 평가에서는 ADHD- HI형은 대상수가 소수여서 비교할 수 없었으며, ADHD-C형과 ADHD-Ⅰ형 사이에 유의한 차이는 보이지 않았다. CPT, WCST, SST를 이용한 신경심리학적 실행기능의 비교에서 아형간 계량적인 차이는 있었으나 통계적으로 유의한 차이는 보이지 않았다. 결 론：결론적으로 ADHD 세 아형은 임상적으로 뚜렷한 차이를 보였지만, 실행기능상 유의한 차이를 발견할 수 없었다. 향후 보다 잘 고안 된 연구와 발달중인 아동에 적절한 신경심리 평가 도구의 개발을 통해 결과를 보완해야 할 것으로 사료된다.었으나, 주의력에서는 전두엽의 실행능력(executive function)과 관련되는 검사들에서 산소흡입이 특이한 효과를 보여준다는 것이 확인되었고, 기억능력에서는 단기기억능력 평가에서 산소흡입군이 대조군보다 유의한 효과를 보여주는 것으로 평가되었다. 이러한 연구결과는 산소흡입이 전두엽과 관련된 수행능력, 작동기억능력 향상에 도움이 될 가능성이 있음을 시사하는 결과라고 생각된다.증 1명(5%)이었다. 모든 대상 아동이 주 진단 이외의 2∼6개 이상의 다양한 공존진단을 보였다. 공존진단에는 주의력결핍-과잉운동장애, 우울병, 경계선지능 및 정신지체, 학습장애,

The author reviewed the general principle in the use of psychotropics for patients with renal diseases. who have psychiatric problems. Durgs which are dialyzable and metabolized or eliminated by kidney should not be used for patients with renal failure. However, lithium can be effectively used in a single dose$(300{\sim}600 mg/day)$ after each dialysis. though lithium has the double negative components. It is recommended that serum lithium level should be frequently monitored and the dose of lithium should be gradually increased to minimize its side effect Most of other psychotropics such as benzodiazepine anxiolytics tricyclic or tetracyclic antidepressants, and neuroleptics are metabolized in the liver, and they can be used in renal patients. The dose of these drugs should be reduced in two-thirds of the standard dose. In addition. it is necessary for liaison psychiatrists and other physicians to understand the interactions between psychotropics and drugs often used for treatment of renal diseases in order to prescribe psychotropics safely and effectively in renal patients.

Diabetic Peripheral Polyneuropathy is one of the most distressing complications of diabetes, Drugs such as narcotic analgesics, tricyclic antidepressants, anticonvulsants and phenothiazines have been used to treat diabetic peripheral polyneuropathy, but these drugs are not very effective for the many patients and the side effects may become intolerable. In oriental medicine, usually the main etiology of diabetic Peripheral Polyneuropathy is insufficiency of Blood due to the state of dry-heat in the human body. Therefore, we use Bogan-tang to treat numbness of Diabetic Peripheral Polyneuropathy. Bogan-tang was administrated twice a day for 15 days, and VAS Scale was performed every day to evaluate numbness and insufficiency of blood. In both cases, numbness and insufficiency of blood were improved without any side effects. This study suggests that Bogan-tang is an effective drug in the treatment of Diabetic Peripheral Polyneuropathy.
