 +Two U.S. government reports from the 1970s to 1980s provide evidence for many neuropsychiatric effects of non-thermal microwave EMFs, based on occupational exposure studies.[[https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/26300312|(EMFs) produce widespread neuropsychiatric effects including depression.]]
 +
 +In summary, then, the mechanism of action of microwave EMFs, the role of the VGCCs in the brain, the impact of non-thermal EMFs on the brain, extensive epidemiological studies performed over the past 50 years, and five criteria testing for causality, all collectively show that various non-thermal microwave EMF exposures produce diverse neuropsychiatric effects.

  It is possible that increased UA levels are a trait marker of higher vulnerability to bipolar disorder, and are even more increased during mania (mostly in the first manic episode of drug-naïve patients).

 The current study provides novel evidence that brain function varies with baseline uric acid level. Specifically, these results demonstrate that uric acid is associated with a greater hippocampal response to psychosocial stress.

 +==== astroglia ====

 +Astrocytes perform many functions, including biochemical support of endothelial cells that form the blood–brain barrier, provision of nutrients to the nervous tissue, maintenance of extracellular ion balance, and a role in the repair and scarring process of the brain and spinal cord following traumatic injuries. 
 +
 +* Astrocytes are a type of glial cells and they hold various roles, mostly supporting neurons.
