Searching susceptibility loci for bipolar disorder: a sib pair study on chromosome 12.
Cristina Lorenzi,Dario Delmonte,Adele Pirovano,E. Marino,Fanny Bongiorno,Marco Catalano,Cristina Colombo,Placido Bramanti,Enrico Smeraldi +8 more
TL;DR: The finding not only confirmed the role of genetics in determining liability to bipolar disorder, but suggested glutamatergic transmission impairment as a possible cause, and the study is heavily underpowered.

P.1.119 Genetic dissection of psychopathological symptoms: Insomnia in mood disorders and CLOCK gene polymorphism
Francesco Benedetti,Alessandro Serretti,L. Mandelli,Cristina Lorenzi,Adele Pirovano,Cristina Colombo,Enrico Smeraldi +6 more
TL;DR: Preliminary observation leads to hypothesize a possible involvement of the CLOCK gene polymorphism in the sleep disregulations in MDD and BP.

Hippocampal and parahippocampal volume and function predict antidepressant response in patients with major depression: A multimodal neuroimaging study.
Marco Paolini,Y. Harrington,Federica Colombo,V. Bettonagli,Sara Poletti,Matteo Carminati,Cristina Colombo,F. Benedetti,Raffaella Zanardi +8 more
TL;DR: The results expand existing literature on the relationship between the structure and function of several brain regions and treatment response in MDD, and confirm a possible role of these techniques in guiding treatment choices and predicting their efficacy.

New perspectives on techniques for the clinical psychiatrist: Brain stimulation, chronobiology and psychiatric brain imaging.
Raffaella Zanardi,Barbara Barbini,David Rossini,Alessandro Bernasconi,Felipe Fregni,Frank Padberg,Simone Rossi,Anna Wirz-Justice,Michael Terman,Klaus Martiny,Giuseppe Bersani,Ahmad R. Hariri,Lukas Pezawas,Jonathan P. Roiser,Alessandro Bertolino,Giovanna Calabrese,Lorenzo Magri,Francesco Benedetti,Adriana Pontiggia,Alessia Malaguti,Enrico Smeraldi,Cristina Colombo +21 more
TL;DR: This review summarizes a scientific dialogue between representatives in non‐pharmacological treatment options of affective disorders to reach an agreement on several key points of chronobiological and brain stimulation techniques, as well as on relevant objectives for future research.

Bright light therapy accelerates the antidepressant effect of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation in treatment resistant depression: a pilot study.
Barbara Barbini,Francesco Attanasio,Elena Manfredi,Maria Cristina Cavallini,Raffaella Zanardi,Cristina Colombo +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, a randomized single-blinded study was performed to assess the superiority of the combination strategy of repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (rTMS) and Bright Light Therapy (BLT) over rTMS treatment alone in reducing depressive symptoms in treatment-resistant depression.
