Fig. 5

Effect of lithium treatment on the frequency of depression-like episodes. There was a significant effect of lithium treatment (P < 0.001, η2 = 0.061 [medium ES], two-way repeated-measures ANOVA). The episodes were significantly more frequent after treatment was terminated (Group A in Period 2) than during treatment (Group A in Period 1) (**P < 0.01, r = 0.583 [large ES], paired U-test). The episode frequency after treatment was terminated was also higher than that of another treated group (comparing Group A and Group B in Period 2) (**P < 0.01, r = 0.373 [medium ES], U-test). Data are expressed as the means ± s.e.m. Group A, n = 27; Group B, n = 25.
