As always not a word about the possible link between those prescribed Ritalin and underlying sleep disorders.

Many of the kids highlighted with bipolar disorder were clear mouth breathers. Several had thick necks or retrognathia (recessed chins). And, of course several of the kids had sleep complaints. You would think that such findings would spark some interest in pursuing overnight sleep studies. For future research, it certainly would be fascinating to see how many of these bipolar patients can be turned into successful bilevel patients.
