Abstract
Bipolar disorder is a severe and recurring condition that has become a significant public health issue globally. Studies indicate a heightened risk and earlier onset of cardiovascular diseases among individuals with bipolar disorder, potentially increasing mortality rates. The chronic nature of bipolar disorder leads to disturbances across multiple systems, including autonomic dysfunction, over-activation of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis and increased levels of peripheral inflammatory markers. These disruptions cause endothelial damage, the formation of plaques and blood clots, in addition to the medications used to treat bipolar disorder and genetic associations contributing to cardiovascular disease development. Understanding the complex interplay between bipolar disorder and cardiovascular events is essential for the prevention and effective management of cardiovascular conditions in individuals with bipolar disorder.
