Summary

The lifetime risk for severe affective disorder is about 8%. Risk is increased to about 20% in first-degree relatives of unipolar patients and to 25% in first-degree relatives of bipolar patients. Risk appears to be 40% in relatives of schizoaffective patients. The risk to offspring of two affectively ill parents is more than 50%. Overall risk figures appear to be rising in recent years.

Etiology
Genetic Causes Family Studies:
In a study at the National Institute of Mental Health, 25% of relatives of bipolar probands were found to have bipolar disorder or unipolar illness (depression) themselves, compared to 20% of relatives of unipolar probands and 7% of relatives of control subjects.
Adoption studies that used a broader class of affective probands showed evidence for genetic factors but also possible environmental influences.
Molecular Genetics
Biological theories
Neurotransmitters.
We now know that all clinically effective antidepressants increase neurotransmitter concentrations at postsynaptic receptor sites by inhibiting their reuptake (into the presynaptic neuron) from the synaptic cleft, This action has led to the hypothesis that depression is caused by a neurotransmitter deficiency and that antidepressants exert their clinical effect by treating this imbalance.

Life events
Recent evidence confirms that crucial life events,
particularly the death of loss of a loved one , can precede the onset of depression. However, such losses precede only a small number of cases of depression.Fewer than 20% of individuals experiencing losses become clinically depressed . These observations argue strongly for a predisposing factor, possibly genetic , psychosocial,or characterological in
even stupor. In severe cases , psychotic symptoms, such as delusions and hallucinations, may be present.
Epidemiology
Symptoms and disorders of the depression spectrum are rather common. Lifetime prevalence rates for depressive symptoms are 13%~20% and for major depressive disorder 3.7%~6.7% . Major depressive disorder is about two to three times as common in adolescent and adult females as in adolescent and adult males. In prepubertal children, boys and girls are affected equally. Rates in women and men are highest in the 25-to44-year-old age group.
concordance 65% of the time, and DZ twin pairs show concordance 14% of the time.
Adoption Studies:
In one study , the risk for affective disorder in the biological relatives of bipolar probands was 31% as opposed to 2% in the relatives of control probands. The risk in biological relatives of adopted bipolar probands was similar to the risk in relatives of bipolar probands who were not adopted away (26%). Adoptive relatives did not show increased risk.

Affective (mood) Disorders
XIE Guang-rong M.D.
Definition
Affective disorders are characterized by obvious and persistent elation or depression of mood . The mood disturbance is commonly associated with cognitive and behavioral changes. In severe cases,psychotic symptoms,such as hallucination and delusion,may be observed.There is a recurrent tendency. In certain cases,an episode may become chronic and residual symptoms are observed.
