Abstract
Defining homogeneous subgroups of bipolar disorder (BD) is a major goal in personalized psychiatry and research. According to the neurodevelopmental theory, age at onset may be a key variable. As potential trait markers of neurodevelopment, cognitive and functional impairment should be greater in the early form of the disease, particularly type 1 BD (BD I). The age at onset was assessed in a multicenter, observational sample of 4190 outpatients with BD. We used a battery of neuropsychological tests to assess six domains of cognition. Functioning was measured using the Functioning Assessment Short Test (FAST). We studied the potential moderation of the type of BD on the associations between the age at onset and cognitive and functioning in a subsample of 2072 euthymic participants, controlling for potential clinical and socio-demographic covariates. Multivariable analyses showed cognition to not be impaired in individuals with early (21-30 years) and very early-life (before 14 years) onset of BD. Functioning was equivalent between individuals with early and midlife-onset of BD II and NOS but better for individuals with early onset of BD I. In contrast, functioning was not worse in individuals with very early-onset BD I but worse in those with very early-onset BD II and NOS. Early-life onset BDs were not characterized by poorer cognition and functioning. Our results do not support the neurodevelopmental view that a worse cognitive prognosis characterizes early-life onset BD. This study suggests that functional remediation may be prioritized for individuals with midlife-onset BD I and very early life onset BD 2 and NOS.

[PMID: 38373944 PMCID: PMC10877821 DOI: 10.1186/s12888-024-05596-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/09/2023] [Accepted: 02/07/2024] [Indexed: 02/21/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Bipolar disorder (BD) is a complex mental illness characterized by different mood states, including depression, mania/hypomania, and euthymia. This study aimed to comprehensively evaluate dynamic changes in intrinsic brain activity by using dynamic fractional amplitude of low-frequency fluctuations (dfALFF) and dynamic degree centrality (dDC) in patients with BD euthymia or depression and healthy individuals. METHODS The resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging data were analyzed from 37 euthymic and 28 depressed patients with BD, as well as 85 healthy individuals. Using the sliding-window method, the dfALFF and dDC were calculated for each participant. These values were compared between the 3 groups using one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA). Additional analyses were conducted using different window lengths, step width, and window type to ensure the reliability of the results. RESULTS The euthymic group showed significantly lower dfALFF and dDC values of the left and right cerebellum posterior lobe compared with the depressed and control groups (cluster level PFWE < 0.05), while the latter two groups were comparable. Brain regions showing significant group differences in the dfALFF analysis overlapped with those with significant differences in the dDC analysis. These results were consistent across different window lengths, step width, and window type. CONCLUSIONS These findings suggested that patients with euthymic BD exhibit less flexibility of temporal functional activities in the cerebellum posterior lobes compared to either depressed patients or healthy individuals. These results could contribute to the development of neuropathological models of BD, ultimately leading to improved diagnosis and treatment of this complex illness.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Older age bipolar disorder (OABD) refers to patients with bipolar disorder aged 50 years and over. There is a paucity of evidence-based guidelines specific to OABD, but in recent years, several studies have been published on OABD. The current review synthesizes previous literature (up to January 1, 2021) as well as most recent literature on OABD (since January 1, 2021). RECENT FINDINGS This review covers the following themes: diagnosis and specifiers, clinical course, psychosocial functioning, cognition, physical comorbidities, and pharmacotherapy. On the basis of the latest data, specific clinical recommendations are proposed for each theme. SUMMARY OABD forms a more complex subgroup of bipolar disorder, with an increased risk of cognitive deficits, physical comorbidities, impaired psychosocial functioning, and premature death. The distinctions between BD-I and BD-II and between EOBD and LOBD do not clinically represent relevant subtypes for OABD patients. Mental healthcare professionals should treat all OABD patients with an integrative care model that takes into account cognitive and physical comorbidities and that contains elements aimed at improvement of psychosocial functioning and quality of life. Older age itself should not be a reason to withhold lithium treatment. Future research should collect data on essential data domains using validated measurement scales.

Abstract
Background Bipolar mood disorder or bipolar affective disorder (BPAD) is a chronic illness characterized by phases of mania/hypomania, depression, or mixed episodes. The course of bipolar mood disorder is relapsing in nature. It is associated with high comorbidity rates, a large number of premature deaths due to suicide, and a worse social and work performance. All of those characteristics entail a significant economic impact due to both direct and indirect costs and require an effective diagnostic and therapeutic approach. Lifetime prevalence of BPAD is approximately 4% worldwide. Various attempts have been made to define "predominance" of polarity in BPAD. Need for this Study Our study tries to highlight the existence of predominant polarity by comparing effects of the same on substance consumption, cognitive abilities, quality of life, and preponderance of specific polarity to specific gender. Method After Institutional Ethics Committee Approval and written informed consent, patients who were diagnosed with BPAD attending out-patient department of a tertiary care hospital in Mumbai were recruited. A total of 57 participants were enrolled. The World Health Organization Quality of Life - Brief Scale (WHOQOL BREF) and the Montréal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) were both used to evaluate the patients' quality of life and cognitive ability, respectively. Discussion and Results Men exhibited manic predominant polarity, while women had depressive predominant polarity, with P value of. 003. Regarding age, illness length, education, substance abuse, family history, and suicide attempts, there was no discernible difference in the polarities. The outcome of female bipolar patients may be improved if the clinician is mindful of the burden of depression, risk of misdiagnosis, and variable therapy response. Interestingly, our study found no significant difference between MoCA scores of those with depressive and manic polarity. Substantial MoCA score differences were found between the groups with depressive polarity and no polarity. Conclusion Men were observed to experience more manic episodes. More women in the study experienced predominantly depressive polarity, highlighting the need to probe for a past history of hypomania or mixed episodes to avoid misdiagnosis as unipolar depression in them. Manic predominate polarity performed better in the physical and psychological domains of the post hoc test for quality-of-life BREF scale. There were substantial MoCA score differences between the groups with depressive polarity and no polarity, with the depressive polarity showing more cognitive decline.

Abstract
Objective Bipolar disorder (BD) is a highly prevalent, chronic and recurrent mental illness. The smoking rates in patients with BD are much higher than those of the general population, and BD is associated with an increased risk of suicide. An association between smoking and suicidal behavior has been found in the general population, this systematic review examines whether there is evidence of an association between smoking and suicide behavior in patients with BD. Method A database search was carried out in Medline, Embase, The Cochrane Library, Scopus, and Web of Science, updated until December 31st, 2021, according to the 2020 PRISMA guidelines. We identified prospective and retrospective studies that included patients diagnosed with BD types I, II, and not otherwise specified, and in which smoking and suicidal behavior were correlated. Articles that focused exclusively on other mental disorders were excluded. The Ottawa-Newcastle scale was used to assess the methodological quality of the included articles. Results Fifteen articles (n = 7,395) met all the inclusion criteria. In nine of these articles, the authors found an association between smoking and suicidal behavior in BD, while in the remaining six articles, this association was not found. A great deal of variability was observed between articles, particularly in the measurement of suicidal behavior and tobacco consumption. The risk of bias, as assessed by the NOS, was high for most of the included articles, except for two papers, whose risk was low. Conclusion It was not possible to establish a clear relationship between tobacco use and the risk of suicide in BD patients due to the heterogeneity of the articles included in this systematic review, which had different sample sizes and methodological issues. However, both conditions are highly prevalent and have a negative impact on the prognosis of BD. Therefore, a systematic approach is needed, based on accurate measurement of a patient's smoking habits and their risk of suicidal behavior, in order to establish an appropriate therapeutic plan. Additional information This research received no specific grant from any funding agency in the public, commercial, or not-for-profit sectors and was registered on PROSPERO with the CRD42022301570 on January 21th 2022.

The Relationship between Predominant Polarity, Lifetime Comorbid Anxiety Disorders and Subjective Quality of Life among Individuals with Bipolar Disorder in Singapore. INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH AND PUBLIC HEALTH 2023; 20:1155. [PMID: 36673910 PMCID: PMC9859592 DOI: 10.3390/ijerph20021155] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/07/2022] [Revised: 12/19/2022] [Accepted: 12/26/2022] [Indexed: 06/17/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Depressive features and comorbid anxiety disorders are two discrete but interconnected clinical features that have been reported to be associated with a poorer quality of life (QoL) among individuals with bipolar disorders. However, the relationship between manic features and quality of life is less conclusive. The present study aimed to assess differences in QoL among bipolar outpatients who present with either depressive predominant polarity (DPP), manic predominant polarity (MPP) and/or a lifetime diagnosis of comorbid anxiety disorders in Singapore. METHODS Data from 74 outpatients in Singapore diagnosed with bipolar disorder were collected. Sociodemographic information, the polarity of most episodes (2 out of 3), the diagnosis of anxiety disorders and QoL were obtained from a self-reported interview and/or through clinical records. QoL was measured using the abbreviated version of the World Health Organization questionnaire. We used multivariate regression models to determine the relationships between predominant polarity, lifetime comorbid anxiety disorders and QoL in physical health, psychological health, social relationships and environment domains. RESULTS After adjusting for covariates, individuals with DPP scored poorer for WHOQOL-BREF for all four domains as compared with individuals with indeterminate polarity. As compared to individuals with indeterminate polarity, individuals with MPP scored poorer for WHOQOL-BREF social relationships. Lastly, individuals with lifetime comorbid anxiety disorders scored poorer for WHOQOL-BREF physical health, social relationships and environment. DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSIONS The present study provides preliminary support for the relationship between DPP, lifetime comorbid anxiety disorders and poorer QoL, paving the pathway for future research with larger samples to utilise our study design to verify our results.

Abstract
AIM This cross-sectional study aimed to assess the predominant polarity (PP) in patients with bipolar disorder (BD) and the factors associated with PP. METHODOLOGY For this study, 773 participants with at least 10 years of illness, were recruited from 14 centres, were evaluated using the National Institute of Mental Health- Retrospective Life Charts to assess the course of illness and PP was determined by both Barcelona proposal and the Harvard Index. RESULTS According to Barcelona proposal for PP, 20.6% of the patients belonged to depressive PP, 45.8% belonged to manic PP and 33.6% belonged to indeterminate polarity. According to Harvard index of PP, 31.6% of the patients belonged to depressive PP, 56.1% belonged to manic polarity and 12.3% of the patients could not be categorized into any of these categories and hence, were considered to have indeterminate polarity. Those with depressive PP were more often having BD-II, had later age of onset, spent more time in episodes, had higher residual depressive symptoms, had lower residual manic symptoms, more often had depression as the first lifetime episode, and less often had at least one psychotic episode. CONCLUSION In the Indian subcontinent, although the prevalence of PP is influenced by the definition used, the most common PP is that of mania.
