ABSTRACT
Diagnosis of classic psychiatric illness in mentally handicapped individuals remains difficult. Manic-depressive illness has previously been reported in both pre-pubertal and pubertal children with a mental handicap and with a family history. This paper reports a case of manic-depressive psychosis in childhood, with no family history, short-cycle mood swings and good response to lithium therapy.

ABSTRACT
Our knowledge of trace element metabolism has increased dramatically in the last decade. It now seems likely that many trace elements are of significance either as causative or therapeutic factors in a wide range of illnesses. Several of the most topical elements are discussed here in relation to neurological and psychiatric disorders.
