Discussion Forum #2 Instructions
Please choose ONE of the following questions. Note that if you choose #2, you must answer both parts (brain stimulation and eating disorders).
1. Pharmacogenomics is the study of using an individual’s genomic information to better understand, or predict, how they may respond to a particular drug, for the purpose of efficacy, tolerability, safety, and dosage. There is growing evidence for a possible place of genomic testing in psychiatry. If you haven’t had much exposure to genomic testing in your clinical practice, listen to this Carlat Psychiatry Podcast, Top Genetic Tests, for a broad overview:
https://www.thecarlatreport.com/podcast/the-top-genetic-tests/
Please search for and critique one quantitative article (preferably a randomized controlled trial) that studies any psychiatric medication in the context of a particular genomic profile. This could concern pharmacodynamics (what the drug does to the body) or pharmacokinetics (what the body does to the drug).
Briefly summarize the article by including the following: (use headings for clarity)
Purpose of the study (aims)
Design of the study
Sample
Setting
Intervention
Comparator
Results/Findings/Author’s conclusion
Strengths and limitations of the study
Implications for practice- could this information be clinically useful to you and why?

2. Answer both of the following questions (A & B). You must provide at least one reference for each part. You may use your Sadock et al. (2015) text for ONE of the references but must go to the literature for at least one additional resource. References must be in APA format (7th edition).
A) Describe 3 different types of brain stimulation methods and identify patients you might treat with each type.
B) Describe the clinical manifestations of Anorexia Nervosa and Bulimia Nervosa and their differences. Please provide one potential treatment for each, pharmacological and/or psychosocial.
For your peer reply, please respond to ONE peer by applying the knowledge to a patient you have seen. You can use a client from your clinical rotation or workplace. Try to give us as much demographic information as you recall (age, gender, race/ethnicity, domestic/social/occupational status, and diagnosis) and a brief summary of treatment. Please describe why you think any of the information on medication management, brain stimulation, or eating disorders could be or could have been helpful.
