Trends in mental health inequalities for people with disability, Australia 2003 to 2020
CONCLUSION: This paper confirms that people with disability experience worse mental health than people without disability. We add to previous findings by demonstrating that disability-related inequalities in mental health have been sustained for a long period and are worsening in some subpopulations.PMID:37606227 | DOI:10.1177/00048674231193881

The association between carotid atherosclerosis and treatment with lithium and antipsychotics in patients with bipolar disorder.
CONCLUSION: Lithium treatment may be associated with less progression in carotid intima-media thickness and the reduced risk for atherosclerosis in adults with bipolar disorder, including those with high cardiovascular disease risk. In addition to age and body mass index, antipsychotics may increase carotid intima-media thickness even in the low cardiovascular disease-risk patients.
