Abstract

Background: The emotional regulation process plays a pivotal role in daily-life functioning, modulating goal-directed and adaptive behavior. Conversely, altering this cognitive function can disrupt self-regulation and bring emotional dysregulation. Emotional instability could represent a core characteristic of BPD, also modulating the BPD symptom's onset. This systematic review aims to summarize the existing literature reporting the role of emotional instability in BPD to better define the role of the impairment of the emotional processes in the onset of the cognitive and behavioral symptoms of this complex mental disorder.

Methods: MEDLINE, Scopus and Web of Science were independently searched for relevant studies. Eligible studies had to be identifiable through database searching, published and accessible. This systematic review was conducted according to PRISMA guidelines. The search period was from 2012 to 14 September 2022.

Results: A pool of 120 studies was identified, out of which 11 met the selection criteria and were included. Overall, the studies confirm a relationship between emotional instability and borderline personality disorder.

Conclusions: The evidences retrieved seem to point out the role of the emotional impairment not only in worsening of the disorder, but could also be one of the risk factors for its onset.

情绪不稳定在边缘型人格障碍中的作用:系统回顾。

背景:情绪调节过程在日常生活功能中起着关键作用，调节目标导向和适应性行为。相反，改变这种认知功能会破坏自我调节，导致情绪失调。情绪不稳定可能是BPD的一个核心特征，也可以调节BPD症状的发作。本系统综述旨在总结现有报道情绪不稳定在BPD中的作用的文献，以更好地定义情绪过程的损害在这种复杂精神障碍的认知和行为症状发病中的作用。方法:独立检索MEDLINE、Scopus和Web of Science相关研究。符合条件的研究必须通过数据库检索、出版和可访问来确定。该系统评价是根据PRISMA指南进行的。搜索期为2012年至2022年9月14日。结果:共纳入120项研究，其中11项符合入选标准。总的来说，这些研究证实了情绪不稳定和边缘型人格障碍之间的关系。结论:所获得的证据似乎表明，情绪障碍不仅在疾病的恶化中起作用，而且可能是其发病的危险因素之一。
