The aim of this study was to assess the olfactory functions of patients with bipolar disorder in manic phase and to compare them to those of bipolar subjects in remission and healthy controls....
We recruited 96 participants divided in 3 groups: bipolar mania (MB), euthymic bipolar in remission (EB) and healthy controls (HC). All participants underwent an assessment of their olfactory function...
Patients in mania had deficits in identifying positive smells compared to bipolar subjects in remission and to healthy controls (MB < EB < HC; p < 0.001). Hedonic (MB < EB = HC; p < 0.001) and emotion...
Patients in manic episodes showed deficits in identifying positive odors. They evaluated these smells as less pleasant and less emotional compared to remitted bipolar subjects and healthy controls. Th...
Secondary mania refers to a manic episode that arises during a medical illness other than bipolar disorder or in response to a drug or medication. As the psychopathological features of secondary mania...
We present the case of a 20-year-old woman who developed a manic episode with psychotic symptoms, in whom polymicrogyria, a malformation of the cortical development with abnormal electroencephalograph...
To date, no specific recommendations are available concerning when to perform advanced studies in patients with a manic episode; however, as our case shows, these are much needed....
Because the treatment of secondary conditions largely depends on finding the underlying cause, patients with a new-onset mania should undergo a thorough assessment for secondary causes....
Patients may present with manic symptoms in medical settings such as emergency rooms and on inpatient medical floors, leading to psychiatric consultation to try to determine the etiology of the sympto...
Current evidence for pharmacological treatment of mania during hospitalisation is insufficient as there are no larger well-designed randomised trials of comparative medical treatments of mania during ...
The purpose is to compare youth- and caregiver-reported characteristics of family environment, within and between families with a child experiencing a first manic episode of bipolar disorder (BPD), an...
Family environment of 61 families with a child with BPD and 44 HF were assessed with Family Environment Scale (FES). We compared FES subscale scores between families with BPD and HF, and caregiver- an...
Families with BPD differed significantly from HF on 8/10 FES subscales scores. Youth differed significantly from their caregivers on 7/10 subscales. An interaction effect was observed such that youth ...
Our results suggest that families with BPD have higher conflict and lower cohesion and organization compared to HF. Results also indicate differences between youth and caregiver perspectives in both g...
Antidepressant-induced mania (AIM) is a side effect of antidepressant treatment that is characterized by mania or hypomania after the start of medication. It is likely polygenic, but its genetic compo...
This is a letter to the editor on the article "An algorithm for pharmacological treatment of mania during hospitalisation" Dan Med J 2024;71(5):A08230525....
Knowledge of the effectiveness of electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) in the treatment of manic episodes is based on clinical experience, but empirical evidence is scarce. Moreover, prognostic factors ass...
To investigate the response to ECT in patients with manic episodes....
This nationwide, register-based observational cohort study was conducted using data from patients admitted to psychiatric departments in Sweden that reported data to the Swedish National Quality Regis...
Patients treated with ECT for a mania were identified from the Q-ECT....
Response to ECT was defined by a CGI-I score of 1 (very much improved) or 2 (much improved). Remission was defined as a Clinical Global Impression Severity scale (CGI-S) score of 1 (reference range or...
Among 571 patients with mania treated with ECT (211 [37.0%] men; median [IQR] age, 46 [31-59] years), 482 patients (84.4%) responded to ECT. Comorbid anxiety and obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) we...
This study found that ECT was associated with improvement for mania in clinical settings, with especially high response rates in patients with severe illness and those without comorbid anxiety or OCD....
The possibility of atypical antipsychotics (AA) to induce manic symptoms has been raised by several articles. The objective of this study was to describe whether exposure to AA may induce mania in moo...
We performed a systematic review following the preferred reporting items for systematic reviews and meta-analysis guidelines. The systematic search encompassed all relevant studies published until Apr...
A total of 52 studies were included in the systematic review. We found 24 case reports or case series describing 40 manic/hypomanic episodes allegedly induced by AA. Twenty-one placebo-controlled tria...
AA-induced mania/hypomania was not the primary outcome in any of the observational or interventional studies. TEM was not homogeneously defined across studies. In most case reports it was not possible...
TEM is more frequent with placebo than with AA, which suggests that AA exposure does not represent a relevant risk for TEM. Mania/hypomania induced by an AA seems to be rare events, since anecdotal ev...
Although the traditional nosological view interprets mania as strictly connected with depression in the context of manic-depressive illness, unipolar mania (UM), that is, the lifetime occurrence of ma...
