    Metabolic abnormalities have been associated with olanzapine treatment. We assessed if olanzapine has dose-dependent effects on metabolic parameters with changes for weight, blood pressure, lipid and glucose profiles being modelled using linear mixed-effects models. The risk of metabolic abnormalities including early weight gain (EWG) (≄5% during first month) was assessed using mixed-effects logistic regression models. In 392 olanzapine-treated patients (median age 38.0 years, interquartile range [IQR] = 26.0-53.3, median dose 10.0 mg/day, IQR = 5.0-10.0 for a median follow-up duration of 40.0 days, IQR = 20.7-112.2), weight gain was not associated with olanzapine dose (p = 0.61) although it was larger for doses versus ≀10 mg/day (2.54 ± 5.55 vs. 1.61 ± 4.51% respectively, p = 0.01). Treatment duration and co-prescription of >2 antipsychotics, antidepressants, benzodiazepines and/or antihypertensive agents were associated with larger weight gain (p 10 mg/day were at higher EWG risk (odds risk: 2.15, 1.57-2.97). EWG might be prominent in high-dose olanzapine-treated patients with treatment duration and co-prescription of other medications being weight gain moderators. The lack of major dose-dependent patterns for weight gain emphasizes that olanzapine-treated patients are at weight gain risk regardless of the dose

To date, no study assessed whether and which plasma methylxanthines (caffeine and/or its metabolites, i.e., paraxanthine, theophylline, and theobromine) are associated with plasma lipids. In psychiatric patients, an important coffee consumption is often reported and many psychotropic drugs can induce a rapid and substantial increase of plasma lipid levels. Objective: To determine whether plasma methylxanthines are associated with metabolic parameters in psychiatric patients receiving treatments known to induce metabolic disturbances. Design, Setting, and Participants: Data were obtained from a prospective study including 630 patients with metabolic parameters [i.e., body mass index (BMI), total cholesterol (TC), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), non-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (non-HDL-C), and fasting triglycerides (TG)] monitored routinely during psychotropic treatment. Exposures: Plasma methylxanthines levels. Main Outcomes and Measures: Metabolic variables including BMI and plasma lipid levels. Results: Multivariate analyses indicated that BMI, TC, HDL-C, and non-HDL-C increased significantly with increasing total methylxanthines (pcorrected &lt;= 0.05). In addition, compared to patients with plasma caffeine concentration in the lowest quartile, those with caffeine concentration in the highest quartile were twice more prone to suffer from non-HDL hypercholesterolemia (p(corrected) = 0.05), five times more likely to suffer from hypertriglyceridemia (p(corrected) = 0.01) and four times more susceptible to be overweight (p(corrected) = 0.01). Conclusions and Relevance: This study showed that plasma caffeine and other methylxanthines are associated with worsening of metabolic parameters in patients receiving psychotropic treatments known to induce metabolic disturbances. It emphasizes that important caffeine consumption could be considered as an additional environmental risk factor for metabolic worsening in patients receiving such treatments

    Clinical, environmental and epigenetic moderators of cardiometabolic adverse effects in patients receiving psychotropic treatments

    Psychiatric patients display an important prevalence of cardiometabolic disturbances, increasing their risk of developing and dying from cardiovascular diseases. This concerning situation results from a combination of genetic and environmental factors. Besides, the medications indicated to treat mental illnesses, including most antipsychotics, many mood stabilizers and some antidepressants, induce weight gain and metabolic alterations. The aim of the present thesis was to assess the metabolic health of a Swiss psychiatric cohort and to explore clinical, environmental and epigenetic risk factors to improve knowledge of psychotropic drugs’ metabolic effects. In the first study, the probabilities of cardiovascular events and death were estimated in a sample of psychiatric patients and a sample of the general population, revealing a similar level of risk. However, metabolic syndrome prevalence was much higher in the psychiatric cohort, especially in younger individuals (&lt;50 years) and in women. In the second project, the association between socioeconomic status and changes in cardiometabolic parameters was evaluated over one year after the prescription of a psychotropic medication at risk for weight gain. Patients with low compared to high socioeconomic status were three times more likely to develop metabolic syndrome. Validating these observations, educational attainment, a marker of socioeconomic status, was found to be causally related to body mass index in an independent cohort of individuals receiving psychotropic treatments. The last study focused on quetiapine, an atypical antipsychotic, and was able to show that its metabolic adverse reactions depended on the daily dosage. Patients on lower doses developed indeed less side effects. However, the magnitude of this effect was small, and low doses of quetiapine still carried a non-negligible risk. Eventually, preliminary results from an ongoing project have revealed a global increase in DNA methylation levels following psychotropic treatment initiation and suggested that some site-specific modifications may play a role in drug-induced metabolic side effects. These findings are critical in raising awareness of the poor metabolic health highly prevalent in psychiatry. They provide more insights into the risk factors for metabolic adverse reactions, which can be directly used in clinical practice to benefit care. The results of ongoing studies will provide a better understanding of the mechanisms leading to these adverse events, hopefully enabling development of new strategies to prevent their occurrence, to help identify at risk patients and to guide prescription choices. -- Les patients psychiatriques prĂ©sentent une prĂ©valence importante de troubles cardiomĂ©taboliques, ce qui augmente leur risque de dĂ©velopper des maladies cardiovasculaires et d’en dĂ©cĂ©der.

    Abstract Background Metabolic side effects of psychotropic medications are a major drawback to patients’ successful treatment. Using an epigenome-wide approach, we aimed to investigate DNA methylation changes occurring secondary to psychotropic treatment and evaluate associations between 1-month metabolic changes and both baseline and 1-month changes in DNA methylation levels. Seventy-nine patients starting a weight gain inducing psychotropic treatment were selected from the PsyMetab study cohort. Epigenome-wide DNA methylation was measured at baseline and after 1 month of treatment, using the Illumina Methylation EPIC BeadChip. Results A global methylation increase was noted after the first month of treatment, which was more pronounced (p < 2.2 × 10–16) in patients whose weight remained stable (< 2.5% weight increase). Epigenome-wide significant methylation changes (p < 9 × 10−8) were observed at 52 loci in the whole cohort. When restricting the analysis to patients who underwent important early weight gain (≄ 5% weight increase), one locus (cg12209987) showed a significant increase in methylation levels (p = 3.8 × 10–8), which was also associated with increased weight gain in the whole cohort (p = 0.004). Epigenome-wide association analyses failed to identify a significant link between metabolic changes and methylation data. Nevertheless, among the strongest associations, a potential causal effect of the baseline methylation level of cg11622362 on glycemia was revealed by a two-sample Mendelian randomization analysis (n = 3841 for instrument-exposure association; n = 314,916 for instrument-outcome association). Conclusion These findings provide new insights into the mechanisms of psychotropic drug-induced weight gain, revealing important epigenetic alterations upon treatment, some of which may play a mediatory role
