  • ADHD comorbidity can matter when assessing cortical thickness abnormalities in patients with bipolar disorder.

    Hegarty CE, Foland-Ross LC, Narr KL, Sugar CA, McGough JJ, Thompson PM, Altshuler LL. Bipolar Disord. 2012; 14 (8): 843-55

    Attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is prevalent in patients with bipolar disorder (BP), but very few studies consider this when interpreting magnetic resonance imaging findings. No studies, to our knowledge, have screened for or controlled for the presence of ADHD when examining cortical thickness in patients with BP. We used a 2 × 2 design to evaluate the joint effects of BP and ADHD on cortical thickness and uncover the importance of ADHD comorbidity in BP subjects.
