Affective temperament in stroke patients.

abstract：:Most forms of behaviour whether normal or abnormal, show a tendency to run in families.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Previous studies suggest that brain serotonin neurotransmission may mediate the actions of lithium carbonate. Acute tryptophan depletion (ATD) reduces brain serotonin and allows the study of this neurotransmitter in patient groups.
