Among risk measures, bipolar at-risk (BAR) criteria have shown promise in predicting onset of bipolar disorder in the first year in clinical cohorts; however, it is not known whether BAR criteria are associated with the onset of BD in the longer term.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec id=\"ab-zoi230983-5\"><jats:title>Objective<\/jats:title><jats:p>To assess the association of BAR criteria with onset of BD over 10 to 13 years follow-up.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec id=\"ab-zoi230983-6\"><jats:title>Design, Setting, and Participants<\/jats:title><jats:p>This prospective cohort study, completed between May 1, 2020, and November 7, 2022, included consenting people seeking help for nonpsychotic major mental health difficulties, including mood, personality, and substance use disorders, who were originally recruited at ages 15 to 25 years from a tertiary youth mental health setting in metropolitan Melbourne, Victoria, Australia, from May 1, 2008, to September 30, 2010.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec id=\"ab-zoi230983-7\"><jats:title>Exposure<\/jats:title><jats:p>Meeting BAR criteria at baseline. Criteria included subthreshold mania, cyclothymic features, subthreshold depression, and family history of BD. A matched clinical comparison group was recruited from the same help-seeking population.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec id=\"ab-zoi230983-8\"><jats:title>Main Outcomes and Measures<\/jats:title><jats:p>The primary outcome was expert consensus diagnosis of BD I or II based on the Mini International Neuropsychiatric Interview, self-reported information collected through online assessments, and linked data on mental health service utilization in Victoria over 10 to 13 years of follow-up.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec id=\"ab-zoi230983-9\"><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>Among 69 eligible participants, follow-up data were available for 60 (88.2%). The mean (SD) age at the end of follow-up was 32.9 (2.8) years, and 49 (81.7%) were women. A total of 28 participants met BAR criteria, and 32 were in the comparison group. In the BAR group, 8 patients (28.6%) developed BD over a mean (SD) of 11.1 (0.7) years of follow-up, and no patients in the comparison group developed BD. The risk of developing BD was higher in the BAR group than in the non-BAR group (\u03c7<jats:sup>2<\/jats:sup><jats:sub>1<\/jats:sub>\u2009=\u200970.0; <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\u2009&amp;amp;lt;\u2009.001).

The findings suggest that those meeting BAR criteria may benefit from longer-term monitoring and support. Evaluation of predictive properties in longer-term studies using a risk measure will help with implementation of BAR criteria in clinical settings.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1001\/jamanetworkopen.2023.34078","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,9,15]],"date-time":"2023-09-15T15:32:35Z","timestamp":1694791955000},"page":"e2334078","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":20,"title":["Bipolar
