“…Thus, the clinical relevance of these findings remains uncertain. Nevertheless, as has been described for sub-threshold psychosis symptoms , research suggests that expressions of mania outside the realm of clinical disorder have a distribution in the general population (Akiskal, 2003, Krabbendam et al, 2004 and that sub-threshold expressions of mania show continuity with clinical diagnoses of mania and thus bipolar disorder (Regeer et al, 2006, Thomas, 2004.…”

This review aimed to examine the impact of cannabis use on the incidence of manic symptoms and on their occurrence in those with pre-existing bipolar disorder Methods: A systematic review of the scientific literature using the PRISMA guidelines.PsychINFO, Cochrane, Scopus, Embase and MEDLINE databases were searched for prospective studies.Results: Six articles met inclusion criteria. These sampled 2,391 individuals who had experienced mania symptoms. The mean length of follow up was 3.9 years.Studies support an association between cannabis use and the exacerbation of manic symptoms in those with previously diagnosed bipolar disorder. Furthermore, a meta-analysis of two studies suggests that cannabis use is associated with an approximately 3-fold (Odds Ratio: 2.97; 95% CI: 1.80 to 4.90) increased risk for the new onset of manic symptoms. Limitations:We were only able to identify a small number of studies of variable quality, thus our conclusions remain preliminary. Conclusions:Our findings whilst tentative, suggest that cannabis use may worsen the occurrence of manic symptoms i...

“…Both binary and continuous affective variables were constructed as described previously [34][35][36] : i) ''Binary (hypo)mania'' and ''binary depression'': An a priori binary (hypo)mania variable was defined as at least 2 DIA-X/M-CIDI mania symptoms and a binary depression variable as at least 3 DIA-X/M-CIDI depression symptoms. ii) In addition, guided by previous work, 34-36 a continuous ''(Hypo)mania Score'' and a continuous ''Depression Score'' variable were constructed.…”

Evidence from clinical patient populations indicates that affective dysregulation is strongly associated with reality distortion, suggesting that a process of misassignment of emotional salience may underlie this connection. To examine this in more detail without clinical confounds, affective regulation-reality distortion relationships, and their clinical relevance, were examined in a German prospective cohort community study. A cohort of 2524 adolescents and young adults aged 14-24 years at baseline was examined by experienced psychologists. Presence of psychotic experiences and (hypo)manic and depressive symptoms was assessed at 2 time points (3.5 and up to 10 years after baseline) using the Munich-Composite International Diagnostic Interview. Associations were tested between level of affective dysregulation on the one hand and incidence of psychotic experiences, persistence of these experiences, and psychotic Impairment on the other. Most psychotic experiences occurred in a context of affective dysregulation, and bidirectional dose-response was apparent with greater level of both affective dysregulation and psychotic experiences. Persistence of psychotic experiences was progressively more likely with greater level of (hypo)manic symptoms (odds ratio [OR] trend 5 1.51, P < .001) and depressive symptoms (OR trend 5 1.15, P 5 .012). Similarly, psychotic experiences of clinical relevance were progressively more likely to occur with greater level of affective dysregulation (depressive symptoms: OR trend 5 1.28, P 5 .002; (hypo)manic symptoms: OR trend 5 1.37, P 5 .036). Correlated genetic liabilities underlying affective and nonaffective psychotic syndromes may be expressed as correlated dimensions in the general population. Also, affective dysregulation may contribute causally to the persistence and clinical relevance of reality distortion, possibly by facilitating a mechanism of aberrant salience attribution.

“…These items were rated yes (1) or no (0) and were only rated if : (a) at least one of the core symptoms ' unusual happiness or excitement ' or ' unusual irritability ' was present ; (b) core symptoms were either noticed by others or caused participants problems ; (c) symptoms were present for at least four successive days ; (d) symptoms were not a result of alcohol/drugs use. Guided by previous work (Regeer et al 2006), a sum score of symptom ratings was formed (range 0-11 symptoms). Five progressively stricter and overlapping subcategories of this sum score were created (I, no symptoms ; II, o1 symptom ; III, o4 symptoms ; IV, o7 symptoms ; V, o10 symptoms), which represented the underlying continuous score of (hypo)manic symptoms.…”

Background. Reported rates of bipolar syndromes are highly variable between studies because of age differences, differences in diagnostic criteria, or restriction of sampling to clinical contacts.Method. In 1395 adolescents aged 14-17 years, DSM-IV (hypo)manic episodes (manic and hypomanic episodes combined), use of mental health care, and five ordinal subcategories representing the underlying continuous score of (hypo)manic symptoms (' mania symptom scale ') were measured at baseline and approximately 1.5, 4 and 10 years later using the Munich-Composite International Diagnostic Interview (DIA-X/M-CIDI).Results. Incidence rates (IRs) of both (hypo)manic episodes and (hypo)manic symptoms (at least one DSM-IV core symptom) were far higher (714/105 person-years and 1720/10 5 person-years respectively) than traditional estimates. In addition, the risk of developing (hypo)manic episodes was very low after the age of 21 years [hazard ratio (HR) 0.031, 95 % confidence interval (CI) 0.0050-0.19], independent of childhood disorders such as attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Most individuals with hypomanic and manic episodes were never in care (87 % and 62 % respectively) and not presenting co-morbid depressive episodes (69 % and 60 % respectively). The probability of mental health care increased linearly with the number of symptoms on the mania symptom scale. The incidence of the bipolar categories, in particular at the level of clinical morbidity, was strongly associated with previous childhood disorders and male sex.Conclusions. This study showed, for the first time, that experiencing (hypo)manic symptoms is a common adolescent phenomenon that infrequently predicts mental health care use. The findings suggest that the onset of bipolar disorder can be elucidated by studying the pathway from non-pathological behavioural expression to dysfunction and need for care.
