Lithium - connections

Lithium ->

• Affects: Potassium/sodium balance
• Affects: Liver function (Mediated outcome: raised manganese)
• Affects: Kidney functions (Mediated outcome: raised sodium and potassium)
• Affects: Adrenals, Thyroid gland (Pathway: direct or indirect)
• Affects: Cardiac function (Sequence: subsequently; Pathway: direct or indirect)
• Associated With: Dizziness, Goiter, Tremors (Level: high)
• Associated With: Gastric ulcers (Level: low)
• Associates With: Homicide, Mental hospital admission (Lithium level: highest; Outcome rate: lowest; Medium: drinking water; Claimant: some researchers; Acceptance: not officially accepted)
• Balances: Sodium (Condition: bipolar disorder with low lithium and very high sodium)
• Benefits: Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, Brain injury, Parkinson's disease, Spinal cord injury, Strokes (Evidence: animal models; Certainty: reported)
• Causes: Hypothyroidism, Kidney damage, Liver damage, Memory problems, Mental confusion, Staggering gait, Tremors (Context: toxicity or overdose)
• Causes: Biochemical conflict (Degree: distinct)

• Is A: Trace elements (Essentiality: nutritionally essential)
• Is Associated With: Depression (Source state: high)
• Is Associated With: Depression (Source state: low)
• Raises: Potassium (Intake: higher amounts; Frequency: frequently; Tendency: present)
• Raises: Sodium (Intake: higher amounts; Tendency: present)
• Raises: Manganese (Tendency: present)
• Reduces: Aging (Modality: potential)
• Resolves: Bipolar disorder (Proportion: about one third; Certainty: estimated)
• Stops: Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (Aspect: progression; Evidence: clinical trials; Recency: recent; Certainty: suggested; Modality: may)
• Stops: Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis progression (Evidence: clinical trials; Timing: recent; Certainty: suggested; Modality: may)
• Treats: Bipolar disorder

• Treats: Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, Brain injury, Parkinson's disease, Spinal cord injury, Strokes (Evidence: reported; Model: animal; Benefit: beneficial)
• Treats: Duodenal involvement (Indication: more)
• Treats: Gastric involvement (Location: lower; Indication: more)
• Treats: Alcoholism, Huntington's chorea, Ménière's disease (Success: some)
