1Mental Health Research Centre, Moscow, Russia.
Objective:
To reveal psychopathological characteristics and core dynamic patterns of continuous cycling bipolar affective disorders in youth.
Material And Methods:
One hundred and seven patients (62 men and 45 women), including 59 patients of the clinical group and 48 of the follow-up group, were examined.
Results And Conclusion:
Three types of continuous cycling bipolar affective disorders in youth are described: rhythmic, dysrhythmic and pseudorhythmic. A correlation between the dynamics of affective disorders in youth and the nosological affiliation of each of the identified types of continuous cycling course was found.
