Fat cell number and weight gain in lithium treated patients.

P B Vendsborg, N Bach-Mortensen, O J Rafaelsen.   

Abstract

Total amount of fat, fat cell size, and fat cell number were determined in 33 patients under long-term lithium treatment. The weight gain during the treatment was estimated both by the patients themselves (questionnaire) and from their records. A positive correlation between fat cell number and weight gain was found whereas the fat cell size showed no correlation to weight gain.
