Why the study?
Are longitudinal changes in BPD symptomatology associated with changes in resting cardiac function in adolescents engaging in non-suicidal self-injury?
Are longitudinal changes in BPD symptomatology associated with changes in resting cardiac function in adolescents engaging in non-suicidal self-injury?
Resting cardiac function changes correlate with BPD symptom changes in adolescents with NSSI, highlighting potential utility as a biomarker.
Associated cardiac changes may track BPD symptoms in NSSI adolescents; hypothesis-generating and requires prospective validation.
Longitudinal changes in BPD symptomatology in adolescents engaging in NSSI are associated with changes in resting cardiac function. Clinical studies are needed to investigate the utility of cardiac markers to track treatment outcome in adolescents with BPD.
