Popis: International audience; Aims: Actigraphy studies of individuals with bipolar disorders (BD) suggest that illness progression may be associated with a range of progressive disruptions in 24-hour rest-activity rhythms (RAR). However, those longitudinal studies were undertaken in older adults with extended histories or illness and treatment rather than young people with emerging BD. To our knowledge, this is the first study to use network modelling to examine the statistical associations between clinical phenotypes of BD and different subsets of RAR markers.Methods: This study of adolescents and young adults (mean age 22 years; 69% female) uses network modelling to examine which self-rated or actigraphic markers of RAR are more strongly associated with full threshold BD (referred to as Stage 2; N = 15) compared with BD-at risk syndromes (subthreshold presentations referred to as Stage 1; N = 25).Results: Network analysis demonstrated that some RAR are associated with both stage of BD and a family history of BD (such as longer sleep duration and higher levels of daytime impairment). Markers of circadian rhythmicity indicated that regulation of this system is weaker in Stage 2 compared with Stage 1 of BD.Limitations: The small subgroup samples may have undermined the ability to detect some associations between phenotypes and RAR.Conclusions: Network modelling may offer a useful strategy for visualizing and analysing patterns of association between RAR and clinical phenotypes defined by stage of illness, familial loading or symptom profile. This could prove useful in understanding the underlying pathophysiology of sleep-wake cycle and circadian rhythm disturbances in BD.
