Abstract
In a study of 19 manic patients, the authors found that eight suffered from mixed mania, a condition in which depressive symptoms are found in the context of classic manic features. The presence of a mixed manic state predicted at least a slower and possibly a poor response to lithium therapy. The authors suggest that the delineation of a subgroup of mixed manic patients might help to identify potential lithium-resistant patients.Entities:
