Abstract

From an epidemiological standpoint, bipolar disorder and diabetes (Type II diabetes mellitus) exhibits high prevalence and universal distribution, found in men and women of all ages, races, ethnicities, cultures, and socioeconomic groups. Bipolar disorder and diabetes often present as co-occurring medical conditions along with characteristic metabolic, neurochemical, and neuroanatomical changes. The co-occurring conditions are associated with the increased morbidity, chronicity, lower treatment response, and premature mortality. Risk factors for these co-occurring conditions include increased prevalence of negative lifestyle behaviors such as unhealthy diet/obesity, inactivity/lack of exercise, smoking, and poor medical compliance. Bipolar disorder co-occurring with diabetes is the focus of this review of their relationships and interactive symptomology.
