Abstract
These results confirm a strong link between AD and bipolar validators along psychopathologic and familial grounds. From a practical standpoint, AD is best viewed as a variant of BP-II. Clinicians confronted with MDE patients presenting with atypical features should strongly consider a BP-II diagnosis. In a more hypothetical vein, atypicality-or some associated features thereof-might serve as a nosologic bridge between UP and BP-II.
