OBJECTIVE
Some patients with nonconvulsive status epilepticus are known to exhibit catatonic stupor. Thus it is necessary to rule out ictal catatonia by electroencephalography in patients with catatonic stupor. However, few reports are available on epileptic seizures superimposed on catatonic
A 60-year-old man without comorbidity underwent a totally extraperitoneal repair of bilateral inguinal hernias under general anesthesia. Forty minutes after the procedure he developed a slow, shallow respiratory pattern with a respiratory rate of 5/min and a self-limiting grand mal seizure lasting
3 min after simultaneous i.v. administration of phenazone (200 mg/kg) and of pentetrazole (50 mg/kg) or of phenazone and of the convulsively active S-(+)-1-methyl-5-phenyl-5-propyl barbituric acid = (+)-MPPB (75 mg/kg), respectively, phenazone concentrations in liver, spleen and fat tissue of rats
MPI-CDG (formally called CDG 1b), caused by phosphomannose isomerase (MPI) deficiency, leads to hypoglycaemia, protein losing enteropathy, hepatopathy, and thrombotic events, whereas neurologic development remains unaffected. Dietary supplementation of mannose can reverse clinical symptoms by
A 16-year-old girl with a history of Graves' disease presented with two episodes of generalised tonic-clonic seizures, necessitating intensive care admission. Laboratory examination demonstrated a suppressed thyroid-stimulating hormone level with dramatically elevated free triiodothyronine, free
Petit mal absences in childhood are often followed by grand mal seizures in adolescence and a coexistence of both types of seizures is not uncommon at all. It is noteworthy, however, that such a coexistence does not imply immediate transition from one type of seizure into the other one. Hence, a
DPDPE ([D-Pen2, D-Pen5]-Enkephalin) and DPLPE ([D-Pen2, L-Pen5]-Enkephalin) are conformationally-constrained cyclic analogs of enkephalin with high selectivity for delta opioid receptors. Intracerebroventricular (i.c.v.) administration of each analog acutely produces a complex EEG response in rats
Two cases are described in which a dissociative stupor originating from conversion neurosis simulated a coma following a sustained trauma. At first both patients showed no response to being addressed or to pain stimuli. They presented an upward eye gaze deviation, cardiorespiratory functions were
