The HTR1B 861G>C receptor polymorphism among patients suffering from alcoholism, major depression, anxiety disorders and narcolepsy
Christoph Fehr,Nina Grintschuk,Armin Szegedi,Ion Anghelescu,Christoph Klawe,Peter Singer,Christoph Hiemke,Norbert Dahmen +7 more
TL;DR: Although the association in this study might be due to a type I error, the higher degree of HTR1B allele sharing within both populations could also argue for another alcoholism-relevant gene within the proximity of the H TR1B gene on human chromosome 6.
Combination treatment with nefazodone and cognitive-behavioral therapy for relapse prevention in alcohol-dependent men: a randomized controlled study.
Hermann Wetzel,Armin Szegedi,Armin Scheurich,B. Lörch,Peter Singer,Detlef Schläfke,Helmut Sittinger,Thomas Wobrock,Matthias J. Müller,Ion Anghelescu,Martin Hautzinger +10 more
TL;DR: The results from this carefully designed clinical trial suggest that the 4 treatment combinations do not differ substantially in their efficacy for relapse prevention in nondepressed, severely alcohol-dependent patients.

Tyrosine hydroxylase Val-81-Met polymorphism associated with early-onset alcoholism.
TL;DR: A role for tyrosine hydroxylase in early-onset alcoholism is suggested in patients with alcohol dependence and healthy volunteers as well as healthy volunteers.

No association between the dopamine d2 receptor taqi a1 allele and earlier age of onset of alcohol dependence according to different specified criteria.
Ion Anghelescu,Sabine Germeyer,Matthias J. Müller,Christoph Klawe,Peter Singer,Norbert Dahmen,Hermann Wetzel,Hubertus Himmerich,Armin Szegedi +8 more
TL;DR: No association was found between the A1 polymorphism and age at onset of alcohol dependence according to different specified criteria.

Polymorphisms in the NMDA subunit 2B are not associated with alcohol dependence and alcohol withdrawal-induced seizures and delirium tremens.
André Tadić,Norbert Dahmen,Armin Szegedi,Armin Szegedi,Dan Rujescu,Ina Giegling,Gabriele Koller,Ion Anghelescu,Ion Anghelescu,Christoph Fehr,Christoph Klawe,U. W. Preuss,Thomas Sander,Mohammad R. Toliat,Peter Singer,Brigitta Bondy,Michael Soyka +16 more
TL;DR: Neither the analyzed SNPs nor any of their haplotypes likely modify susceptibility to alcohol dependence or withdrawal–related phenotypes.
