Overview

Little is known about the natural course and prognosis factors of inpatients and outpatients with Disruptive Mood Dysregulation Disorder (DMDD). The investigators conducted a cross-sectional study to determine the evolution of a sample of DMDD patients referred to the hospital for suicidal behaviors between 2013 and 2018 in terms of diagnostic stability, psychiatric comorbidity, and psychosocial factors. A group of patients with various episodic mood disturbances was used as a clinical case control group. In addition to change in DMDD symptoms across time, the investigators examined the onset and persistence of psychiatric comorbidity using the KIDDIE-SADS PL and suicidal behaviors using the Colombia Suicidality Severity Rating Scale. The investigators also examined the persistence of depressive symptoms using the Beck Depression Inventory (BDI-II), the persistence of emotional lability (Affective Lability Scale-18), borderline traits (Abbreviated Diagnostic of Inventory Borderline). Socio-demographic, clinical features and actigraphy-measured sleep characteristics determined between 2013 and 2018 were used to predict the evolution of the DMDD patients and the clinical control group.

Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

Diagnostic evolution toward an other psychiatric disorder.

The evolution toward another psychiatric disorder would be examined using the semi-structured interview KIDDIE-SADS and the Ab-DIB to examine borderline traits. The K-SADS is a semi-structured interview to measure current and past symptoms of mood, anxiety, psychotic, and disruptive behavior disorders in children ages 6-18 years old. (Ab-DIB) as a screening measure of borderline psychopathology in an adolescent clinical population.

Time frame: one day

persistence of a full-blown DMDD diagnostic
