    Bipolar disorder (BD) has a global prevalence of 1.5% and is associated with high mortality rates, particularly due to suicide.

  • 2

    Epigenetic mechanisms, including DNA methylation and non-coding RNA regulation, significantly influence the pathogenesis of BD.

  • 3

    A total of 1154 publications were analyzed, revealing the United States as the leading contributor to epigenetic BD research.

  • 4

    Key research themes include histone modifications, HDAC inhibitors, and the role of long noncoding RNAs in BD.

  • 5

    The study highlights a shift towards exploring dynamic regulatory networks and multi-omics integration in BD research.
