Abstract

Background: Cannabis use during pregnancy may adversely affect the health of pregnant women and their fetus. Several recent surveys led in the US general population in the last decade showed an increase in cannabis use during pregnancy from 1.95 to 7%, with a 0.5% for medical-only purposes. Objectives: Our aim was to investigate if an increased incidence might be due to a greater public acceptability after introduction of cannabis medical use or due to psychiatric implications and unmet needs. Method: 500 pregnant women (302 psychiatric patients and 198 healthy controls) were tested with the Edimburgh Post-Natal Depression Scale, Beck Anxiety and Depression Inventory, and Structured Clinical Interview for the DSM-IV Axis II while substance use disorder was documented with the fulfillment of the DSM-5 criteria. Results: Five percent of the whole sample had a documented addiction to cannabis during pregnancy (all among psychiatric patients and none in the general population). All psychiatric patients with cannabis use disorder were affected by borderline personality disorder, except for 1 patient with cannabis and cocaine use disorders who suffered from adjustment disorder with anxiety. Conclusions: Addiction to cannabis during pregnancy has an increased rate confirming surveys on the general US population but seem entirely linked to psychiatric issues, especially borderline personality disorder. Personality disorders may have been underestimated in surveys in the general population until now because these are usually not assessed.

Abstract

Background: Tobacco smoking is a major health concern. Many women smoke during their reproductive years, some of them during their pregnancy. Adverse outcomes for the newborns physical health are well recognized, while the influence on their mental health is still under investigation. We aim at demonstrating the contribution of maternal personality disorders in maintaining addiction to tobacco during pregnancy, to underline their role and the need of their detection as a preventive effort. Method: 150 women, consecutively admitted to the Perinatal Psychiatric Outpatient Department were tested with the SCID II, CTQ, WHOQOL-BREF, EPDS, BDI and BAI. Tobacco use disorder was attested with the fulfillment of DSM 5 criteria. Results: 46% (n = 69) of the sample was affected by at least one personality disorder (“PD+”). “PD+” showed a significant higher rate of pregnant women addicted to tobacco (p = 0.021). The average number of cigarettes per day was notably distinct, since patients affected by “NPD” smokes twice the amount compared to “PD−” and “other PDs” while those affected by Borderline PD has a halfway consumption (7.20 ± 5.54 vs 3.37 ± 4.62 vs 3 ± 3.39 vs 5.50 ± 4.10). ANOVA and POST HOC showed a significance between “NPD” and “other PDs” (p = 0.035), and “other PDs” has significantly the highest rate of active smokers. Conclusion: Personality disorders demonstrate to be a clear contributor in supporting addiction to tobacco during pregnancy. Short and long term health and mental consequences attested in the newborn, encourage awareness in detecting tobacco dependency during this sensitive period. The inclusion of personality evaluation and management in tobacco dependency treatment programs is strictly encouraged to boost their efficiency and increase tobacco abstinence

Abstract

Background For many years, long-acting intramuscular (LAI) antipsychotics have been prescribed predominantly to chronic and severe patients, as a last resort when other treatments failed. Recently, a broader and earlier use of LAIs, particularly second-generation LAIs, has been emphasized. To date, few studies attempted to frame how this change in prescribing took place in real-world practice. Therefore, this study aimed to describe the clinical features of patients prescribed with LAIs, and to explore possible prescribing differences between first- and second-generations LAIs under ordinary clinical practice in Italy. Methods The STAR Network “Depot” Study is an observational, longitudinal, multicenter study involving 35 centers in Italy. In the cross-sectional phase, patients prescribed with LAIs were consecutively recruited and assessed over a period of 12 months. Descriptive statistics and multivariable logistic regression analyses were employed. Results Of the 451 recruited patients, 61% were males. The level of social and working functioning was heterogeneous, as was the severity of disease. Seventy-two per cent of the patients had a diagnosis of the schizophrenia spectrum. Seventy per cent were prescribed with second-generation antipsychotic (SGA) LAIs (mostly paliperidone, aripiprazole and risperidone). Compared to first-generation antipsychotic (FGA) LAIs, patients prescribed with SGA LAIs were more often younger; employed; with a diagnosis of the schizophrenia spectrum or bipolar disorder; with higher levels of affective symptoms; with fewer LAI prescriptions in the past. Discussion LAIs' prescribing practices appear to be more flexible as compared to the past, although this change is mostly restricted to SGA LAIs.
