The acquisition and facilitation of maladaptive coping strategies is the result of the activation of a cascade of emergency reactions which cannot be halted by the activation of available pro-adaptive coping strategies. Such experiences of uncontrollability and helplessness undermine the most essential resources to deal with stress and pave the way to the manifestation of disturbances at the level of secure attachment, self-efficacy, trust, affect control, self-regulation etc. Psychotherapeutic interventions will be most effective if they focus on the restoration of the resources at the level at which the maladaptive coping pattern became primarily stabilized (relational, emotional, cognitive approaches)."],["dc.identifier.doi","10.1007/s00278-007-0545-y"],["dc.identifier.isi","000246521400001"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/51521"],["dc.notes.status","zu prüfen"],["dc.notes.submitter","Najko"],["dc.publisher","Springer"],["dc.relation.issn","0935-6185"],["dc.title","Anxiety and stress-induced disorders.

No significant differences were observed between both groups in the density of 5-HT transporters in the brain stem and in the densities of NE transporters in FC and brain stem.

Hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis dysfunction is a frequent finding in psychiatric disorders, including psychotic depression and schizophrenia. Conflicting results exist concerning the influence of antipsychotics on the HPA-axis. Objective. Therefore, this double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomized cross-over study investigated the effect of quetiapine on nocturnal urinary cortisol and melatonin excretion in 13 healthy male subjects under conditions of undisturbed and experimentally disturbed sleep. Methods. Volunteers were studied 3 times for 3 consecutive nights (N0, adaptation; N1, standard sleep conditions; N2, acoustic stress) 4 days apart. Placebo, quetiapine 25 mg or quetiapine 100 mg was administered orally 1 h before bedtime on nights 1 and 2. Urine produced during the 8-h bedtime period was collected for later determination of cortisol and melatonin concentrations by standard radioimmunoassays. Results. MANOVA showed a significant effect for N1 vs. N2 with elevated total amount of cortisol (p<0.005) and melatonin (p<0.05) excretion after acoustic stress. Both quetiapine 25 mg and 100 mg significantly (p<0.0005) reduced the total amount of cortisol excretion in comparison to placebo. No interaction effect of stress condition was observed. There was no effect of quetiapine on melatonin levels. Conclusion. The significant reduction of nocturnal cortisol excretion following quetiapine reflects a decreased activity of the HPA-axis in healthy subjects. This finding may be an important aspect in quetiapine's mode of action in different patient populations."],["dc.identifier.doi","10.1007/s00213-003-1766-6"],["dc.identifier.isi","000222646700013"],["dc.identifier.pmid","14735295"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/48081"],["dc.notes.status","zu prüfen"],["dc.notes.submitter","Najko"],["dc.relation.issn","0033-3158"],["dc.title","Quetiapine reduces nocturnal urinary cortisol excretion in healthy subjects"],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","yes"],["dc.type.peerReviewed","yes"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]

Whether or not a certain diagnosis or treatment will trigger a psychoemotional stress response is primarily dependent on the subjective judgment and the appraisal of the situation by the individual patient. This response can only partly be influenced by the medical practitioners. It is governed by the previous experiences made by the individual patient in the course of her life. This contribution describes how such subjective experiences of failure and of success in mastering difficult situations are anchored in the brain. Alternating experiences of the controllability and the uncontrollability of stressors are required for the facilitation and stabilization of neuronal networks and synaptic connections. Based on the current knowledge about the use- and experience-dependent adaptive modification and reorganization of neuronal connectivity, the reasons are discussed which will make certain patients either more vulnerable or more resistant to stressful life events. it is described why the internalized attitudes and views of the individual patient are of uttermost importance for her appraisal.

Despite the usefulness of atypical antipsychotics in the treatment of depression and their positive influence on cognitive functioning possibly related to their impact on cortisol, little is known about their effect on HPA axis function. Objective: Therefore, this double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomized cross-over study investigated the influence of the atypical antipsychotics quetiapine and olanzapine in comparison with haloperidol and placebo on plasma adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH), cortisol, and prolactin levels. Eleven healthy male volunteers were studied during four sessions one week apart, orally receiving placebo, quetiapine (50 mg), olanzapine (5 mg), or haloperidol (3 mg). Blood samples were taken at hourly intervals from 0900 until 1700 hours. For ACTH, cortisol, and prolactin a significant effect of treatment condition (p <= 0.005; p <= 0.035; p <= 0.0001, respectively) for area under the curve (AUC) was found. In comparison to placebo, quetiapine and olanzapine significantly reduced ACTH (p <= 0.002; p <= 0.05, respectively) and cortisol (p <= 0.005; p <= 0.03, respectively). No effect of haloperidol on AUC of ACTH or cortisol levels was observed. In comparison with placebo, haloperidol (p <= 0.0001) and olanzapine (p <= 0.0001) elevated AUC of prolactin plasma levels, whereas no significant effect was observed for quetiapine as a main effect of treatment condition. The atypical antipsychotics' strong influence on HPA-function with pronounced ACTH and cortisol lowering is possibly related to the atypicals' blockade of serotonergic receptors, but blockade of adrenergic or histaminergic receptors may play a role as well. The observed HPA-axis down-regulation may be clinically important for the atypicals' effects on depressive symptomatology and cognitive functioning."],["dc.identifier.doi","10.1007/s00213-005-0279-x"],["dc.identifier.isi","000235547600002"],["dc.identifier.pmid","16432682"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/40980"],["dc.notes.status","zu prüfen"],["dc.notes.submitter","Najko"],["dc.publisher","Springer"],["dc.relation.issn","0033-3158"],["dc.title","The atypical antipsychotics olanzapine and quetiapine, but not haloperidol, reduce ACTH and cortisol secretion in healthy subjects"],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","yes"],["dc.type.peerReviewed","yes"],["dc.type.status","published"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]
