Abstract
Objective: Bipolar disorder (BD) is characterized by the poor sleep quality. Whether the striatal dopamine transporter (DAT) availability is related to sleep quality among patients with BD is unclear.
Methods: Fifty-three euthymic patients with BD (24 BD-I and 29 BD-II) and sixty-eight healthy controls were enrolled. The Chinese Version of the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) was used, and the availability of DAT was assessed by single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) using [99mTc] TRODAT-1.
Results: The sleep disturbance component of the PSQI was significantly associated with the level of DAT availability among patients with BD.
Conclusion: The striatal dopaminergic activity that contributes to resilience to adversity was associated with sleep pattern among patients with BD.
期刊介绍:
Clinical Psychopharmacology and Neuroscience (Clin Psychopharmacol Neurosci) launched in 2003, is the official journal of The Korean College of Neuropsychopharmacology (KCNP), and the associate journal for Asian College of Neuropsychopharmacology (AsCNP). This journal aims to publish evidence-based, scientifically written articles related to clinical and preclinical studies in the field of psychopharmacology and neuroscience. This journal intends to foster and encourage communications between psychiatrist, neuroscientist and all related experts in Asia as well as worldwide. It is published four times a year at the last day of February, May, August, and November.
