The thermodynamic soliton theory of the nervous impulse and possible medical implications [PDF]

open access: yesProgress in Biophysics and Molecular Biology 173 (2022) 24-35, 2022
The textbook picture of nerve activity is that of a propagating voltage pulse driven by electrical currents through ion channel proteins, which are gated by changes in voltage, temperature, pressure or by drugs. All function is directly attributed to single molecules. We show that this leaves out many important thermodynamic couplings between different

Lithium attenuates blood–brain barrier damage and brain edema following intracerebral hemorrhage via an endothelial Wnt/β‐catenin signaling‐dependent mechanism in mice

open access: yesCNS Neuroscience & Therapeutics, 2022
Vasogenic cerebral edema resulting from blood–brain barrier (BBB) damage aggravates the devastating consequences of intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). Although augmentation of endothelial Wnt/β‐catenin signaling substantially alleviates BBB breakdown in ...

Observation of the Surface Layer of Lithium Metal using In Situ Spectroscopy [PDF]

open access: yesAppl. Phys. Lett. 120, 211602 (2022), 2022
We have investigated the surface of lithium metal using x-ray photoemission spectroscopy and optical spectroscopic ellipsometry. Even if we prepare the surface of lithium metal rigorously by chemical cleaning and mechanical polishing inside a glovebox, both spectroscopic investigations show the existence of a few tens of nanometer-thick surface layers,

Premature Ejaculation after Lithium Treatment in a Patient with Bipolar Disorder

open access: yesCase Reports in Psychiatry, 2023
Lithium has proven its efficacy in treating bipolar disorder. Severe side effects caused by lithium, including renal and endocrine outcomes, have already been amply documented. The impact of lithium on sexual function, however, is less well known.

Lithium management in pregnant patients with bipolar disorder

open access: yesEuropean Psychiatry, 2023
Introduction Women with bipolar disorder often ask their treating clinician for information about family planning, as they are concerned about the impact of their illness on offspring.

Regularization-based Continual Learning for Fault Prediction in Lithium-Ion Batteries [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
In recent years, the use of lithium-ion batteries has greatly expanded into products from many industrial sectors, e.g. cars, power tools or medical devices. An early prediction and robust understanding of battery faults could therefore greatly increase product quality in those fields.

Effect of antipsychotics on serum lithium levels and white blood cell counts

open access: yesNeuropsychopharmacology Reports, 2021
Lithium carbonate is used to increase white blood cell counts as a means of counteracting leukopenia caused by the administration of antipsychotic drugs.

Frequency-Specific Changes in the Fractional Amplitude of the Low-Frequency Fluctuations in the Default Mode Network in Medication-Free Patients With Bipolar II Depression: A Longitudinal Functional MRI Study

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychiatry, 2021
Objective: This study aimed to examine the treatment-related changes of the fractional amplitude of low-frequency fluctuations (fALFF) in the default mode network (DMN) across different bands after the medication-free patients with bipolar II depression ...

Identification and characterization of preventable adverse drug events in family medicine clinics from central Saudi Arabia

open access: yesSaudi Journal of Medicine and Medical Sciences, 2023
Background: Medication errors can result in adverse drug events (ADEs) and cause considerable patient harm. Limited data are available from Saudi Arabia and the Middle East regarding the prevalence of preventable adverse drug events (pADEs) in primary ...

Lithium in Kepler Red Giants: Defining Normal and Anomalous [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
The orders of magnitude variation in lithium abundances of evolved stars have long been a puzzle. Diluted signals, ambiguous evolutionary states and unknown masses have made it challenging to both map the expected lithium signals and explain the anomalously lithium-rich stars.
