Introduction
Major Depressive Disorder (MDD) is one of the most common mental illnesses worldwide and is strongly associated with suicidality. Commonly used treatments for MDD with suicidality include crisis intervention, oral antidepressants (although risk of suicidal behavior is high among non-responders and during the first 10-14 days of the treatment) benzodiazepines and lithium. Although several interventions addressing suicidality exist, only few studies have characterized in detail patients with MDD and suicidality, including treatment, clinical course and outcomes. Patient Characteristics, Validity of Clinical Diagnoses and Outcomes Associated with Suicidality in Inpatients with Symptoms of Depression (OASIS-D)-study is an investigator-initiated trial funded by Janssen-Cilag GmbH.
ObjectivesFor population 1 out of 3 OASIS-D populations, to assess the sub-population of patients with suicidality and its correlates in hospitalized individuals with MDD.
MethodsThe ongoing OASIS-D study consecutively examines hospitalized patients at 8 German psychiatric university hospitals treated as part of routine clinical care. A sub-group of patients with persistent suicidality after >48 hours post-hospitalization are assessed in detail and a sub-group of those are followed for 6 months to assess course and treatment of suicidality associated with MDD. The present analysis focuses on a preplanned interim analysis of the overall hospitalized population with MDD.
ResultsOf 2,049 inpatients (age=42.5±15.9 years, females=53.2%), 68.0% had severe MDD without psychosis and 21.2% had moderately severe MDD, with 16.7% having treatment-resistant MDD. Most inpatients referred themselves (49.4%), followed by referrals by outpatient care providers (14.6%), inpatient care providers (9.0%), family/friends (8.5%), and ambulance (6.8%). Of these admissions, 43.1% represented a psychiatric emergency, with suicidality being the reason in 35.9%. Altogether, 72.4% had at least current passive suicidal ideation (SI, lifetime=87.2%), including passive SI (25.1%), active SI without plan (15.5%), active SI with plan (14.2%), and active SI with plan+intent (14.1%), while 11.5% had attempted suicide ≤2 weeks before admission (lifetime=28.7%). Drug-induced mental and behavioral disorders (19.6%) were the most frequent comorbid disorders, followed by personality disorders (8.2%). Upon admission, 64.5% were receiving psychiatric medications, including antidepressants (46.7%), second-generation antipsychotics (23.0%), anxiolytics (11.4%) antiepileptics (6.0%), and lithium (2.8%). Altogether, 9.8% reported nonadherence to medications within 6 months of admission.
ConclusionsIn adults admitted for MDD, suicidality was common, representing a psychiatric emergency in 35.9% of patients. Usual-care treatments and outcomes of suicidality in hospitalized adults with MDD require further study.

Introduction
White matter (WM) abnormalities are considered integral to the pathophysiology of Schizophrenia (SZ) and Bipolar Disorder (BD), but there is ongoing uncertainty about the contribution of medication to these findings.
ObjectivesDiffusion Tensor Imaging (DTI) is a neuroimaging technique that provides quantitative indices of the structural and orientational characteristics of WM. These indices include mean diffusivity (MD), which is a directionally averaged measure of the apparent diffusion coefficient, and fractional anisotropy (FA), which summarizes the orientational dependence of diffusivity. We wanted to determine if these indices are affected by antipsychotic medication.
AimsOur aim was to examine the available literature in order to differentiate antipsychotic effects from disorder-specific WM abnormalities on DTI measures.
MethodsWe conducted a systematic qualitative review of the DTI literature in Bipolar Disorder (BD) and Schizophrenia (SZ), between 1998 and 2010 and included only studies where the relationship between DTI measures and antipsychotic medication was explicitly examined and reported.
ResultsWe identified 40 studies in SZ and 8 in BD. All studies were cross-sectional and involved relatively small patient samples. 32 studies (80%) did not find any relationship between antipsychotic medication (dose, cumulative exposure) and FA or MD.
ConclusionsCurrent evidence does not indicate a major impact of antipsychotic treatment on DTI indices of WM integrity. However, the lack of longitudinal, within-subject designs is a major gap in the current literature.

Summary
ABSTRACT For two years we studied the flux of nitrogen moving in shallow groundwater from double row-cropped uplands through a flood plain and into a second order stream in Maryland. Two floodplain sites were compared: one forested and the other vegetated by grass. At both sites, the soil layer through which the groundwater moved was very sandy. The nitrate concentrations leaving the crop fields were 20–30 mg N1−1 and averaged 25 mg N−1. Nitrate concentrations declined about 32% on average from the field edge to 48 m into the forest and this decrease was about 44% on average in the grassed buffer. These decreases were greater in the winter than in the summer. Nitrate to chloride ratios declined about 43% across the riparian forest transect. Declines in nitrate concentration were not accompanied by offsetting increases in dissolved organic N or ammonium. Soil Eh averaged 191 mV and 263 mV at 33 m and 48 m into the forest, respectively. While nitrate removal rates were the highest of three study sites we have investigated in the Maryland Coastal Plain, nitrate concentrations entering the stream channel were still high (12–18 mg N−1). The flux of nitrate in groundwater from the farm fields at this site clearly exceeded the nitrate removal capacity of these riparian buffers.
INTRODUCTION
Coastal receiving waters are often overenriched with nutrients, especially in cases where the drainage basins are intensively farmed or support large populations of humans (Beaulac & Reckow, 1982; Turner & Rabalais, 1991).
