Response to lithium varies widely between individuals with bipolar disorder (BD). Polygenic risk scores (PRSs) can uncover pharmacogenomics effects and may help predict drug response.

Optimization of dd110 neutron generator output for boron neutron capture therapy [PDF]
Boron neutron capture therapy is about a century old, but still current and active. In this treatment, a high absorption cross-section of boron is used for thermal neutrons and the excited state is decomposed into alpha and lithium ions. These daughter particles have a high LET value and transfer their energy to the surrounding cells. In this work, the

A mixed methods analysis of lithium-related patient safety incidents in primary care
Background: Lithium is a drug with a narrow therapeutic range and has been associated with a number of serious adverse effects. This study aimed to characterise primary care lithium-related patient safety incidents submitted to the National Reporting and

Biological effects of lithium – fundamental and medical aspects [PDF]
In this review, the authors present data on the biological effects of lithium in human and animal body and the subsequent manifestations of these effects. Since the lithium ion radius is close to that of magnesium, lithium ion can compete with magnesium as cofactor of certain magnesium-dependent enzymes.

The effect of concomitant medication on repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) outcomes in depression remains understudied. Recent analyses show attenuation of rTMS effects by antipsychotic medication and benzodiazepines, but data on the ...

Solvation and Transport of Lithium Ions in Deep Eutectic Solvents [PDF]
Lithium based deep eutectic solvents (DESs) are excellent candidates for eco-friendly electrolytes in lithium ion batteries. While some of these DES have shown promising results, a clear mechanism of lithium ion transport in DESs is not yet established.

Background: Lithium is a popular mood stabilizer. Anecdotally, it is an underutilized medication in primary care. We conducted a survey of family physicians (FPs), pharmacists and psychiatrists in Saskatchewan to examine attitudes towards and knowledge ...

Controlling $\text{Li}^+$ transport in ionic liquid electrolytes through salt content and anion asymmetry: A mechanistic understanding gained from molecular dynamics simulations [PDF]
In this work, we report the results from molecular dynamics simulations of lithium salt-ionic liquid electrolytes (ILEs) based either on the symmetric bis[(trifluoromethyl)sulfonyl]imide ($\text{TFSI}^-$) anion or its asymmetric analog 2,2,2-(trifluoromethyl)sulfonyl-N-cyanoamide ($\text{TFSAM}^-$).
