We examined the presence of adverse events in both childhood and adulthood and the prevalence of PTSD in individuals with Bipolar Disorder (BD). There were 191 adults diagnosed with BD Type I and 924 controls, of predominantly African Ancestry (AA). All were administered the GPC-Screening Tool and the BD group the DIPAD. In addition Childhood adversities were measured using the ACE (from 0 to 10), about traumatic events before age 18 and lifetime adversities were measured with 15 questions adapted from the Study of Addiction: Genetics and Environment (A-SAGE (from 0 to 15) for all cases and controls. Probable PTSD (pPTSD) was measured with 4 questions on the GPC screener. Sum scores were calculated for the ACE and A-SAGE by tallying positive responses. Odd Ratios (OR) were used to measure the association between BD and Controls exposure to adversity. BD was associated with a significantly higher mean ACE score and A-SAGE score compared to controls. There was a significantly higher prevalence of pPTSD in the BD (54.5%) versus Controls (6.6%) as well. Greater OR's were seen in the BD compared to Controls for each ACE question (p<0.05). Results were similar for A-SAGE. Limitations include possible recall bias, and missing data.
