A positron emission tomography study of the effects of treatment with valproate on brain 5‐HT2A receptors in acute mania
Bibliographic record
Abstract
OBJECTIVE: To examine the effects of treatment with valproate on brain 5-HT2A receptors in acute manic patients using positron emission tomography (PET) and [18F]-setoperone. METHODS: Patients with DSM-IV bipolar I disorder-manic episode were recruited. Patients were drug free or drug naïve at the time of baseline PET scan. All patients were treated with valproate and one patient received lithium in addition to valproate for 3-5 weeks following which they had a post-treatment PET scan. The effect of treatment on brain 5-HT2A receptor binding was determined using statistical parametric mapping (SPM) and region of interest (ROI) analyses. Of the 12 manic patients recruited, seven patients had both baseline and post-treatment PET scans. RESULTS: All seven patients improved with treatment and were in remission at the time of the second PET scan. Both SPM and ROI analyses showed that treatment with mood stabilizers had no significant effect on brain 5-HT2A receptor binding in manic patients. CONCLUSION: This study suggests that changes in brain 5-HT2A receptors are not involved in the antimanic effects of mood stabilizers however, we cannot exclude the possibility of 5-HT2A receptor involvement in down-stream signaling pathways.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
