Two-Year Syndromal and Functional Recovery in 219 Cases of First-Episode Major Affective Disorder With Psychotic Features

TL;DR: In this article, the authors determined the rate and latency of syndromal recovery and rates of functional recovery after first lifetime hospitalization in patients with first-episode psychotic affective disorders.
Journal ArticleDOI

Clinical and research implications of the diagnosis of dysphoric or mixed mania or hypomania.

TL;DR: Substantial evidence suggests that dysphoric mania may be a distinct affective state in patients with bipolar disorder and proposes preliminary operational diagnostic criteria for its diagnosis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Risk of recurrence following discontinuation of lithium treatment in bipolar disorder.

TL;DR: Risk of early recurrence of bipolar illness, especially of mania, evidently is increased following discontinuation of lithium use and may exceed that predicted by the course of the untreated disorder.
Journal ArticleDOI

Bipolar spectrum disorders in patients diagnosed with velo-cardio-facial syndrome: does a hemizygous deletion of chromosome 22q11 result in bipolar affective disorder?

TL;DR: These findings support an unusually strong association between velo-cardio-facial syndrome and early-onset bipolar disorder and suggest that a gene deleted at the 22q11 chromosomal locus may be involved in its pathogenesis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Association of codon 108/158 catechol-O-methyltransferase gene polymorphism with the psychiatric manifestations of velo-cardio-facial syndrome

TL;DR: In a population of patients with VCFS, there is an apparent association between the low-activity allele, COMT158met, and the development of bipolar spectrum disorder, and in particular, a rapid-cycling form.
