| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In bipolar patients, higher cyclothymic patients had similar age of onset but significantly more depressive episodes per year and total mood episodes per year in comparison with lower cyclothymic patients. Using fMRI with n-back test as a task, we found a significant cluster in the midbrain of brainstem corresponding to Raphe Nuclei which has serotonergic neurons. This cluster has a significantly inverse interaction with higher cyclothymic temperament scores and longer duration of bipolar disorder. These findings suggest that higher cyclothymic patients may have lower serotonergic function along with longer duration of bipolar disorder.
