Psychiatry related information on Adolescent, Hospitalized

• Although adolescent patients with abnormal DSTs may eventually develop affective symptoms consistent with a major depressive disorder, the DST did not discriminate between major depression and other psychiatric diagnoses in these hospitalized adolescents [1].
• The authors systematically evaluated the prevalence and reliabilities of a large set of depressive symptoms and subtypes of major depressive disorder in 40 hospitalized adolescents, aged 12-17 [2].

High impact information on Adolescent, Hospitalized

• A randomized controlled trial of risperidone in the treatment of aggression in hospitalized adolescents with subaverage cognitive abilities [3].
• BACKGROUND: This open-label, 6-week clinical trial investigated the response to fluoxetine in medication-naive adolescents hospitalized for treatment of major depression [4].
• Serum creatine kinase levels in untreated hospitalized adolescents during acute psychosis [5].
• Use of the dexamethasone suppression test with DSM-III criteria in psychiatrically hospitalized adolescents [6].
• Effects of serotonin reuptake inhibitors on aggressive behavior in psychiatrically hospitalized adolescents: results of an open trial [7].

Associations of Adolescent, Hospitalized with chemical compounds

• We prospectively followed the course of aggressive behavior in 19 psychiatrically hospitalized adolescents (not selected for aggressiveness) who received open clinical trials of fluoxetine, paroxetine, or sertraline [7].
• The thyrotropin-releasing hormone (TRH) stimulation test was carried out in 100 acutely hospitalized adolescents (ages 13-17 years) with a variety of diagnoses [8].
