          Bridging the Sex Gap: Personalizing Treatments for Mood Disorders

          Researchers explore the advancements made in understanding sex differences in mood disorders since the 2016 NIH mandate to include sex as a biological variable in basic research. Their review uncovers important findings, such as the higher risk and earlier onset of depression in women, and the underdiagnosis of depression in men due to differences in symptom presentation.

          Amotivation and Anhedonia Key to Social Functioning in Schizophrenia

          Amotivation and anhedonia, rather than expressive dysfunction, are crucial to determining the social functioning of individuals with schizophrenia. The transdiagnostic network analysis examined the relationship between negative symptoms, other psychopathologies, and social functioning in patients with schizophrenia, major depressive disorder, and bipolar disorder.

          Investigating Stress Response in PTSD and Depression Through Gene Analysis

          Researchers conducted an analysis of genes in nearly 575,000 brain cells from individuals with and without post-traumatic stress and major depressive disorders (PTSD and MDD), yielding new insights into the brain's stress response. The study identifies varying gene expression levels in the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) region among PTSD, MDD, and unaffected individuals.

          New fathers with a history of antidepressant use are over 30 times more likely to require such treatment again in the first year after their child's birth. The study, which analyzed over 500,000 primary care electronic health records, found no difference in antidepressant treatment between new fathers and men who hadn't recently had a child, except when a history of treatment was considered.
