Chronobiology and mood disorders

open access: diamondDialogues in Clinical Neuroscience, 2003
The clinical observations of diurnal variation of mood and early morning awakening in depression have been incorporated into established diagnostic systems, as has the seasonal modifier defining winter depression (seasonal affective disorder, SAD). Many circadian rhythms measured in depressive patients are abnormal: earlier in timing, diminished in ...

The chronobiology and neurobiology of winter seasonal affective disorder

open access: diamondDialogues in Clinical Neuroscience, 2007
This review summarizes research on the chronobiology and neurobiology of winter seasonal affective disorder (SAD), a recurrent subtype of depression characterized by a predictable onset in the fall/winter months and spontaneous remission in the spring/summer period. Chronobiological mechanisms related to circadian rhythms, melatonin, and photoperiodism

Disorders of Arousal: A Chronobiological Perspective [PDF]

open access: yesClocks & Sleep, 2021
Non-rapid eye movement (NREM) sleep parasomnias are characterized by motor and emotional behaviors emerging from incomplete arousals from NREM sleep and they are currently referred to as disorders of arousal (DoA). Three main clinical entities are recognized, namely confusional arousal, sleep terror and sleepwalking.

Changes in Body Temperature Patterns Are Predictive of Mortality in Septic Shock: An Observational Study

open access: yesBiology, 2023
Biological rhythms are important regulators of immune functions. In intensive care unit (ICU), sepsis is known to be associated with rhythm disruption. Our objectives were to determine factors associated with rhythm disruption of the body temperature and

Chronobiological theories of mood disorder [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Archives of Psychiatry and Clinical Neuroscience, 2017
Major depressive disorder (MDD) remains the most prevalent mental disorder and a leading cause of disability, affecting approximately 100 million adults worldwide. The disorder is characterized by a constellation of symptoms affecting mood, anxiety, neurochemical balance, sleep patterns, and circadian and/or seasonal rhythm entrainment.

Chronobiology Revisited in Psychiatric Disorders: From a Translational Perspective [PDF]

open access: greenPsychiatry Investigation, 2019
Several lines of evidence support a relationship between circadian disruption in the onset, course, and maintenance of mental disorders. Despite the study of circadian phenotypes promising a decent understanding of the pathophysiologic or etiologic mechanisms of psychiatric entities, several questions still need to be addressed.
