In plain language

In a case-control analysis of 124,655 fracture cases against 373,962 matched controls, higher cumulative lithium exposure tracked with lower fracture risk after adjusting for psychotropic use. Population-scale observational signal on bone; exposure here is pharmacological dosing, not a trace or supplemental intake.
