Bipolar Disord 2020 May;
Diagnosis and management of bipolar disorder (BD) are limited by the absence of available biomarkers. Allostatic load (AL) represents the strain that stress, including the effects of acute phases and inter-episode chronic mood instability, exerts on interconnected biological systems. This study aimed to operationalize an AL index and explore whether it could be relevant to better characterize BD patients with and without emotional hyper-reactivity particularly those at higher risk of immune-cardiometabolic dysregulation and functional impairment.
