Background
Studying phenotypic and genetic characteristics of age at onset (AAO) and polarity at onset (PAO) in bipolar disorder can provide new insights into disease pathology and facilitate the development of screening tools.
AimsTo examine the genetic architecture of AAO and PAO and their association with bipolar disorder disease characteristics.
MethodGenome-wide association studies (GWASs) and polygenic score (PGS) analyses of AAO (n = 12 977) and PAO (n = 6773) were conducted in patients with bipolar disorder from 34 cohorts and a replication sample (n = 2237). The association of onset with disease characteristics was investigated in two of these cohorts.
ResultsEarlier AAO was associated with a higher probability of psychotic symptoms, suicidality, lower educational attainment, not living together and fewer episodes. Depressive onset correlated with suicidality and manic onset correlated with delusions and manic episodes. Systematic differences in AAO between cohorts and continents of origin were observed. This was also reflected in single-nucleotide variant-based heritability estimates, with higher heritabilities for stricter onset definitions. Increased PGS for autism spectrum disorder (β = −0.34 years, s.e. = 0.08), major depression (β = −0.34 years, s.e. = 0.08), schizophrenia (β = −0.39 years, s.e. = 0.08), and educational attainment (β = −0.31 years, s.e. = 0.08) were associated with an earlier AAO. The AAO GWAS identified one significant locus, but this finding did not replicate. Neither GWAS nor PGS analyses yielded significant associations with PAO.
ConclusionsAAO and PAO are associated with indicators of bipolar disorder severity. Individuals with an earlier onset show an increased polygenic liability for a broad spectrum of psychiatric traits. Systematic differences in AAO across cohorts, continents and phenotype definitions introduce significant heterogeneity, affecting analyses.

During high-temperature storage, glass corrosion in glass-to-metal feedthroughs can limit the lifetimes of lithium batteries designed to operate at ambient temperatures. Ampule tests have been conducted to simulate glass corrosion for Li/So2, Li/SOCl2, and Li/SOCl2 + BrCl batteries. In all lithium battery systems tested, lithium metal has been identified as the source of glass corrosion. On the basis of thermodynamic and kinetic stability, glass compositions have been developed that minimize the corrosion problem in all lithium battery systems tested.

Transmission electron microscopy of leached NaOċ3SiO2 and K2Oċ3SiO2 glasses showed that the hydrateg glass surface is a silica rich gel which phase separates during leaching. Phase separation is initiated when pockets of an aqueous phase nucleate and grow in the hydrated silica matrix. The aqueous pockets eventually become a network of interconnected pores with a pore diameter of ∼30 nm. In advanced stages of leaching, the remaining interconnected silica rich phase resembles an aggregation of colloidal silica particles. The observed phase separation is consistent with literature models concerning the chemistry of silica in aqueous solutions and in leached glass.
