O.; SOEIRO-DE-SOUZA, M.; MORENO, D.; MORENO, R. A.Objective: Bipolar disorder (BD) is characterized by high levels of childhood trauma as well as of cognitive dysfunction. Our aim is to investigate the association between these two factors in bipolar patients and in healthy controls. Methods: A total of 35 patients with BD in euthymia, aged between 18 and 40 years old, were recruited at Hospital das Clinicas in São Paulo, Brazil. Ninety four healthy volunteers (HC) (predominantly medical students) aged between 18 and 40 years old, with no current or past history of psychiatric disorder, were recruited from the University of São Paulo. Information about early life stress was obtained using the Childhood Trauma Questionnaire (CTQ). Cognitive function was assessed through a comprehensive and standardized neuropsychological test battery, including social cognition – Facial Emotional Recognized (FER). Results: In the BD group we observed: that physical abuse was significantly associated with reduced scores on verbal recall (p = 0.04) and with fewer recognized of “fear” faces (p = 0.02); sexual abuse and physical neglect were significantly associated with reduced scores on executive function scales (p = 0.02 to p = 0.04); emotional neglect was significantly associated only with reduced scores on recognized of “anger” faces; emotional abuse was significantly associated with reduced scores on attentional process (p = 0.02), verbal task from the Wechsler Abbreviated Scale of Intelligence (WASI) (p = 0.01), and recognized “anger” faces; pshysical neglect was yet significantly associated with reduced scores on verbal and performance tasks and IQ from the WASI (p = 0.02 to p < 0.001), and FER scores on the Emotion Hexagon (Hx) tests and e Ekman 60 Faces (EK60) total scores. In the control HC, Emotional Neglect and Physical Neglect was significantly associated with reduced scores on verbal and performance tasks and IQ from the WASI (p = 0.02 to p < 0.001), working memory (p = 0.01) and executive function (p = 0.01to p = 0.007); Emotional Neglect and Sexual Abuse was significantly associated with reduced scores on verbal fluency; and significantly reduced scores on FER was observed in emotional abuse (p = 0.03), Physical Neglect (p = 0.04 to p = 0.008) and Sexual Abuse (p = 0.04). Discussion: Our results indicate that childhood trauma is associated with a reduction in cognitive function across cognitive domains in patients with BD and HC, in particular social cognition, working memory and executive function as well as general cognition.conferenceObject Increased Anterior Cingulate Glutamate Levels in Euthymic Bipolar I Disorder: A 1h MRS Study(2012) SOEIRO-DE-SOUZA, Marcio G.; OTADUY, Maria C.

Soares; SOEIRO-DE-SOUZA, M.; MISSIO, G.; MORENO, D.; MORENO, R. A.Objective: Bipolar disorder (BD) is characterized by high levels of childhood trauma and they can be detrimental in relation to the formation of personality. The aim of this study is to investigate the association between childhood trauma and BD personality compared to healthy controls (HC). Methods: A total of 27 euthimic BD patients, aged between 18 and 40 years old, were recruited at Hospital das Clinicas in São Paulo, Brazil. Twenty HC (predominantly medical students) aged between 18 and 35 years old, with no current or past history of psychiatric disorder, were recruited from the University of São Paulo. Information about early life stress was obtained using the Childhood Trauma Questionnaire (CTQ). Personality Formation was assessed through NEO-PI-R personality test – based on the Big Five personality traits: Extraversion, Agreeableness, Conscientiousness, Neuroticism, and Openness to Experience. Results: In the BD group the main significant associations were: physical abuse with concientiousness (p = 0.03); emotional neglect with agreeableness (p =0.03) and emotional abuse with conscientiousness (p = 0.04). There were no significant differences in HC group. Comparing BD and HC physical abuse was associated with concientiousness (p = 0.03) and emotion Neglecent was associated with agreeableness (p = 0.03). Discussion: Our results indicate that childhood trauma can be associated with personality traits in BD patients but not in HC, mainly regarding concientiousness and emotional neglect.conferenceObject The Burden of a Progressive Disease: Number of Manic Episodes and Lifetime History of Psychotic Symptoms Increases Dna Oxidation in Bipolar I Disorder(2012) SOEIRO-DE-SOUZA, Marcio G.; ANDREAZZA, Ana Cristina; MACHADO-VIEIRA, Rodrigo; YOUNG, Trevor; MORENO, Ricardo- MRI investigation of a 6-week trial of lithium in medication-free patients with bipolar depression(2014) ZANETTI, M.

conferenceObject Plasma Cortisol in First Episode Drug-Naive Mania: Differential Levels in Euphoric Versus Irritable Mood(2012) VALIENGO, Leandro L.; SOEIRO-DE-SOUZA, Marcui G.; MARQUES, Andrea H.; JURUENA, Mario F.; ANDREAZZA, Ana C.; GATTAZ, Wagner F.; MACHADO-VIERA, RodrigoBackground: Dysregulation of HPA axis have been widely described in subjects with bipolar disorder (BD), including changes in cortisol levels during mood episodes and euthymia. However, most of the studies were done with medicated BD patients with variable length of illness, which was shown to interfere on peripheral cortisol levels. Therefore, the present study aims to evaluate plasma cortisol levels in drug-naïve BD subjects during the first manic episode, as well as investigate the relationship between plasma cortisol levels and manic symptomatology. Methods: Twenty-six drug-naïve patients were enrolled meeting criteria for a first manic episode in bipolar I disorder. Severity of mania was assessed using the Young Mania Rating Scale (YMRS). The control group included 27 healthy subjects matched by age and gender. Cortisol was quantified using a direct radioimmunoassay. Results: Plasma cortisol levels were decreased during first manic episode compared to healthy controls. Higher cortisol levels were positively associated with the presence of irritability (dysphoria), while elated mania showed lower cortisol levels compared to controls. Conclusions: Higher cortisol in dysphoric mania compared to predominantly elated/euphoric mania may indicate a clinical and neurobiological polymorphic phenomenon, potentially involving a higher biological sensitivity to stress in the presence of irritable mood. The present findings highlight the importance to dd a dimensional approach to the traditional categorical diagnosis for future neurobiological studies in BD.conferenceObject Early Improvement with Lithium in Classic Mania Predicts Later Response(2012) MACHADO-VIEIRA, Rodrigo; LUCKENBAUGH, David A.; SOEIRO-DE-SOUZA, Marcia G.; BUSNELLO, Joao V.; GATTAZ, Wagner F.; ZARATE JR., Carlos A.Background: Lithium is a first line approach for acute episodes and maintenance treatment of bipolar disorder (BD). Despite lithium ́s clinical efficacy in treating BD mania, studies evaluating early improvement and subsequent treatment response are sparse. This study investigated whether early improvement (within one week of treatment) to lithium monotherapy predicted later response and remission in individuals with BD mania. Methods: BD-I patients (n=46) experiencing a manic episode received lithium monotherapy for four weeks (initial dose: 600mg/day, adjusted to therapeutic levels); individuals experiencing a mixed episode, rapid cyclers, previous non-responders to lithium, and those with current drug abuse/dependence were excluded. Symptoms were rated using the Young Mania Rating Scale (YMRS) weekly. Results: Thirty-three percent of the total sample responded to lithium within the first week of treatment, as assessed by a ≥50% decrease from baseline YMRS scores; 63% responded by study endpoint. In addition, 39% of the total sample (18/46) showed early improvement, defined as an at least 20% decrease in YMRS scores after one week of treatment. In this group, 79% responded to lithium by study endpoint. Meanwhile, among those showing less than 20% improvement at Week 1, only 23% responded to lithium by study endpoint. Conclusions: Early improvement in response to lithium monotherapy in subjects with BD during a manic episode predicted later response and remission. The findings provide a valuable clinical tool for early identification of those patients most likely to benefit from lithium in clinical practice.
