Clinical and neuroimaging correlates of cardiorespiratory fitness in adolescents with bipolar disorder
Bibliographic record
Abstract
INTRODUCTION: Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is exceedingly prevalent, and occurs prematurely in individuals with bipolar disorder (BD). Cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF), arguably the most important modifiable CVD risk factor, is also associated with brain structure and function. There is a gap in knowledge regarding CRF in BD, particularly in relation to brain structure. METHODS: Adolescents with BD (n = 54) and healthy controls (HC; n = 53) completed semi-structured diagnostic interviews, self-report questionnaires, and 20 minutes of cardiorespiratory exercise at 60-80% of estimated maximum heart rate (HR) on a bicycle ergometer. Average power (watts/kg) within this HR range served as a previously validated proxy for CRF. Brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) structural analysis was done using FreeSurfer. Analyses controlled for age and sex. RESULTS: =0.04). Within BD, greater depression symptoms were associated with lower CRF (P = .02), and greater physical activity (PA) was associated with greater CRF (P < .001). In multivariable analyses, there were significant main effects of diagnosis (HC>BD; P = .03) and sex (M > F; P < .001) on power. Significant predictors of power within BD included male sex (P = .02) and PA (P = .002) but not depression symptoms (P = .29). Significant diagnosis by CRF interaction effects was found in frontal, parietal, and occipital cortical regions. CONCLUSION: CRF was reduced among adolescents with BD, particularly women, related in part to depression symptoms and inactivity and was differentially associated with regional brain structure. Studies seeking to improve CRF as a means of reducing psychiatric symptoms of BD are warranted.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
