Imagery-Based Cognitive Therapy for Bipolar Disorder and Mood Instability
(Guilford Press, 2019)People with bipolar disorder are particularly vulnerable to anxiety and intrusive mental imagery, which can contribute to mood swings and a heightened risk for relapse. This book presents a novel brief treatment that focuses ... -
Incidence of Parkinson’s disease, dementia, cerebrovascular disease and stroke in bipolar disorder compared to other psychiatric disorders: An electronic health records network study of 66 million people
(2020-10)Bipolar disorder has been associated with an increased risk for neurodegenerative diseases, but uncertainties remain. The risk relative to other psychiatric disorders is not established. Methods We used a federated ... -
Induced pluripotent stem cells in psychiatry: a critical review
(2021-01)A key challenge in psychiatry research is the development of high-fidelity model systems that can be experimentally manipulated to explore and test pathophysiological mechanisms of illness. In this respect, the emerging ... -
Learning to Detect Bipolar Disorder and Borderline Personality Disorder with Language and Speech in Non-Clinical Interviews
(2020-08)Bipolar disorder (BD) and borderline personality disorder (BPD) are both chronic psychiatric disorders. However, their overlapping symptoms and common comorbidity make it challenging for the clinicians to distinguish ... -
Lithium modulates striatal reward anticipation and prediction error coding in healthy volunteers
(2020-10)Lithium is one of the most effective mood-stabilizing medications in bipolar disorder. This study was designed to test whether lithium administration may stabilize mood via effects on reward processing. It was hypothesized ... -
Longitudinal cognitive performance in patients with Bipolar Disorder
(2020-01)Commentary: Neurocognitive impairments are a rather common occurrence in euthymic Bipolar Disorder (BD) patients. Understanding the degree of longitudinal stability of these deficits is vital in the management and treatment ... -
Melatonin In Acute Mania Investigation (MIAMI‐UK). A randomised controlled trial of add‐on melatonin in bipolar disorder
(2020-05)Objectives Current options for treating emergent episodes of hypomania and mania in bipolar disorder are limited. Our objective was to compare the effectiveness and safety of add‐on melatonin in hypomania or mania over ... -

Onset and recurrence of psychiatric disorders associated with anti-hypertensive drug classes
(2021-05)The major anti-hypertensive (AHT) drug classes have been associated with differential risks of psychiatric disorders. However, existing data are limited largely to depression, and confounding variables have not always been ... -
An Overview of Sleep and Circadian Rhythms in Bipolar Disorder
(2022-03)Since the conception of bipolar disorder (BD) as a psychiatric condition, sleep and circadian rhythm disruptions have been cardinal symptoms of the disorder. Current nosologies recognise this and such disruptions form part ... -
The Oxford study of Calcium channel Antagonism, Cognition, Mood instability and Sleep (OxCaMS): study protocol for a randomised controlled, experimental medicine study
(2019-02)Background: The discovery that voltage-gated calcium channel genes such as CACNA1C are part of the aetiology of psychiatric disorders has rekindled interest in the therapeutic potential of L-type calcium channel (LTCC) ... -
Patient fibroblast circadian rhythms predict lithium sensitivity in bipolar disorder
(2020-05)Bipolar disorder is a chronic neuropsychiatric condition associated with mood instability, where patients present significant sleep and circadian rhythm abnormalities. Currently, the pathophysiology of bipolar disorder ... -
A phase 2a randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group, add-on clinical trial of ebselen (SPI-1005) as a novel treatment for mania or hypomania.
(2020-09)Rationale Lithium is an effective prophylactic and anti-manic treatment in bipolar disorder; however, its use is declining through perceived poor tolerance and toxicity. Lithium inhibits inositol monophosphatase (IMPase), ... -
Plasma glutathione suggests oxidative stress is equally present in early- and late- onset bipolar disorder
(2018-03)We previously demonstrated oxidative stress in bipolar patients and a relationship between the age of illness onset and total glutathione, a principal antioxi- dant. In this study, we sought to replicate these findings ... -
