Abstract
A considerable group of patients suffering from mental health disorders do not respond adequately to pharmacological treatment. For the purposes of precision and personalized medicine, pharmacogenomics has been developed as a valuable and promising tool. The technology of identifying single nucleotide polymorphisms and genotyping supplies clinicians, and therefore their patients, with the opportunity of avoiding long-lasting 'trial and error' periods, reducing the risk of manifesting disturbing adverse effects during treatment. Consequently, better adherence to treatment and clinical response can be achieved, contributing to personalized treatment planning, according to a person's genetic profile and needs. In the present report, we present a case of an individual diagnosed with bipolar affective disorder type I, who showed resistance to pharmacological treatment and underwent through pharmacogenomic investigations, in order to identify the appropriate medication for the best possible clinical response.
期刊介绍：
The journal aims to publish papers which bring together clinical observations, psychological and behavioural abnormalities and genetic data. All papers are fully refereed.
Psychiatric Genetics is also a forum for reporting new approaches to genetic research in psychiatry and neurology utilizing novel techniques or methodologies. Psychiatric Genetics publishes original Research Reports dealing with inherited factors involved in psychiatric and neurological disorders. This encompasses gene localization and chromosome markers, changes in neuronal gene expression related to psychiatric disease, linkage genetics analyses, family, twin and adoption studies, and genetically based animal models of neuropsychiatric disease. The journal covers areas such as molecular neurobiology and molecular genetics relevant to mental illness.
Reviews of the literature and Commentaries in areas of current interest will be considered for publication. Reviews and Commentaries in areas outside psychiatric genetics, but of interest and importance to Psychiatric Genetics, will also be considered.
Psychiatric Genetics also publishes Book Reviews, Brief Reports and Conference Reports.
