β¦ Synopsis
Bipolar II disorder is characterized by alternating hypomanic and major depressive episode. We model the periodic mood variations of a bipolar II patient with a negatively damped harmonic oscillator. The medications administrated to the patient are modeled via a forcing function that is capable of stabilizing the mood variations and of varying their amplitude. We analyze analytically, using perturbation method, the amplitude and stability of limit cycles and check this analysis with numerical simulations.

The definition of phenotype is a major problem in genetic studies of psychiatric disorders. Most linkage studies in bipolar disorder have defined the phenotype as a dichotomous trait and have usually employed different hierarchical classifications in order to overcome uncertainty resulting from phen
Data on bipolar affective disorder in 187 pedigrees from the Collaborative Depression Study were analyzed using logistic models that have been extended to incorporate age of onset information. Logistic regression analysis and segregation analysis revealed evidence for complex familial effects on thi
We use limit cycle oscillators to model bipolar II disorder, which is characterized by alternating hypomanic and depressive episodes and afflicts about 1% of the United States adult population. We consider two non-linear oscillator models of a single bipolar patient. In both frameworks, we begin wit
