Intra and Extra Erythrocyte Lithium Ion Concentration Ratios in Manic Patients1
نویسندگان
چکیده
In a study RBC-Plasma lithium ratios in manic patients treated with lithium we found that lithium responders had higher lithium ratios than lithium non-responders. There was, however, no cut off value which could differentiate lithium responders from non-responders.

In Vitro Interaction of Lithium on Phospholipids in Human Erythrocytes
Lithium salts are used in the treatment of mania and as prophylaxis against manic depressive disorder. The aim of these studies was the in vitro investigation of the effect of lithium on phospholipids of human erythrocyte membranes. Erythrocytes were treated with lithium for 1 h. Phospholipids phosphatidylinositol (PI), phosphatidylserine (PS), phosphatidylethanolamine (PE), and phosphatidyloch...
متن کاملSynthesis of Lithium Ion Sieve Nanoparticles and Optimizing Uptake Capacity by Taguchi Method
Spinel-type of MnO2 nanoparticles which successfully synthesized by a hydrothermal process, have a required capacity for lithium uptake from liquid resources. Themost lithium adsorption capacity of 6.6 mmol/g of up to now was found to be an important limiting parameter for industrial applications. Therefore, increasing uptake capacity of these ion sieve...

Background & Aims : Bipolar Mood Disorder in acute manic episode is one of the psychiatric emergencies and usually needs to be admitted and intensive management. Treatment of these episodes ordinarily need mood stabilizer together with antipsychotic drugs. Although lithium carbonate is effective in acute mania alone, it needs more time to control episode. Only a few studies have been done a...
