Clinical and psychopathological features associated with treatment-emergent mania in bipolar-II depressed outpatients exposed to antidepressants

Cyclothymic temperament and mixed depression discriminated TEM+ between TEM− cases, although only lithium and the SGAs reliably predicted TEM+/− grouping. Larger-sampled/powered longitudinal replication studies are warranted to allow firm conclusions on the matter, ideally contributing to the identification of clear-cut sub-phenotypes of BD towards patient-tailored-pharmacotherapy.
