Unipolar Mania: Prevalence and Patient Characteristics
UPM was uncommon (4.95% of BD cases; 0.31% with hypomania only). Compared to ordinary BD, UPM had significantly greater morbidity and unemployment but a lower risk of suicidal behavior or general medical disorders associated with bipolar depression. This unusual disorder needs greater recognition, clarification of its nosological status, and efforts to optimize its treatment.
