    Description / Table of Contents: Summary As compared to other tri- and tetracyclics, antidepressant therapy in patients suffering also from cardiac disease with mianserin is known to be relatively safe. Hypertensive effects of mianserin have not been described so far. We report a case of a 64 years old patient with a dilatative cardiomyopathy and left anterior hemiblock, who developed hypertension (maximum: 180/125 mmHg) during mianserin treatment. Previous treatment with tranylcypromine has been stopped two weeks before. After discontinuance of mianserin blood pressure rapidly came back to normal values. The possible noradrenergic and serotonergic mechanisms of this phenomenon are discussed in relation to pretreatment with tranylcypromine.
    Notes: Zusammenfassung Mianserin gilt in der antidepressiven Behandlung von kardial vorgeschädigten Patienten im Vergleich zu anderen tri- und tetrazyklischen Antidepressiva als eher unbedenklich. Blutdrucksteigernde Wirkungen sind nicht zu erwarten. Im dargestellten Fall wurde ein 64jähriger Patient mit vorbekannter dilatativer Kardiomyopathie und Linksschenkelblock nach Vorbehandlung mit Tranylcypromin auf Mianserin umgestellt, woraufhin sich eine medikamentös nur schwer zu beeinflussende hypertone Blutdrucksteigerung (Maximum: 180/125 mmHg) entwickelte. Nach Absetzen von Mianserin kam es zu einer raschen Blutdrucknormalisierung. Die der Blutdrucksteigerung zugrundeliegenden möglichen noradrenergen und serotonergen Wirkmechanismen werden auf dem Hintergrund der Vorbehandlung mit Tranylcypromin diskutiert.

    Notes: Abstract The aim of the present analyses was to evaluate differences in suicidality (past suicide attempts, suicidal thoughts at time of admission and completed suicides during the hospital stay) between bipolar and unipolar depressed inpatients. Apart from a higher frequency of past suicide attempts in bipolar depressed patients (26.6% in bipolar vs. 17.8% in unipolar patients), findings do not indicate any further differences in suicidality (suicidal thoughts (about 40% in both groups) and completed suicides during the hospital stay (0.8% in both groups)) between bipolar and unipolar patients. Factors with a predictive value for suicidal thoughts at the time of admission were a positive family history for affective disorders, past suicide attempts, and the depressive and paranoid hallucinatory syndrome (all associated with an increased risk). Female gender, an older age at hospitalisation and a longer duration of the illness were found to be associated with a lower probability for having suicidal tendencies at the time of admission. The risk for committing suicide during the hospital stay was increased if the patients had a history of past suicide attempts and suicidal thoughts at the time of admission. A more pronounced depressive syndrome at time of admission was slightly associated with a lower risk of committing suicide.
