Extract

Since the first studies of the use of lithium in manic illnesses by Cade (1949), and Noack and Trautner (1951), other investigations have followed in Denmark, France, Italy and Germany. Reference is made to these by Schou (1959) in a recent review of 10 years' use of lithium as psychiatric therapy.
