Methamphetamine (MA) toxicity is a major health concern causing agitation, hyperkinesia, hyperthermia, and even death, affecting 24.7 million people worldwide. It has been observed that MA generates movement disorders in children similar to that of scorpion envenomation. Four cases have
A stress-free, biotelemetric monitoring technique was used to investigate the effects of ambient temperature (Ta) on the hyperthermic and hyperkinetic effects of 3,4-methylenedioxymethamphetamine. In the first experiment a single injection of 5.0 or 7.5 mg/kg MDMA produced hyperthermia in rats
A telomian-beagle hybrid has been studied as a possible model for the hyperkinetic syndrome in children. Behavior tests showed that hybrids, like children, exhibit hyperactivity, impulsiveness, and impaired learning. Two groups of hybrid could be differentiated; the behaviour of one improved after
OBJECTIVE
Developmental disorders including cognitive deficit, hyperkinetic disorder, and autistic behaviors are frequently comorbid in epileptic patients with SCN1A mutations. However, the mechanisms underlying these developmental disorders are poorly understood and treatments are currently
Fever, tachycardia, and hypertension developed concurrently with the administration of thiothixene during an acute episode of agitation in a case of catatonic schizophrenia. No cause for the fever or hyperkinetic state was found, and the syndrome resolved spontaneously one week after antipsychotic
Two cases of cerebral malaria with hyperkinetic shock are reported. The first case concerned a 39-year-old european male who was not taking any prophylactic anti-malarial drugs. After having had headache and fever for a week, he was admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU) in coma and with
A young man was using dihydrocodeine analgesia for ear pain having had suppurative otitis media. He attended the emergency department with restlessness and twitching movements in his arms and legs. He had fever with otherwise normal vital signs. He had no signs of cerebellar pathology.
Electrolytic lesions of the nucleus accumbens were found to produce an increase in spontaneous locomotion; additionally, these lesions attenuated the hyperthermic, but not the hyperkinetic, actions of d-amphetamine. These results suggest that while dopamine release from the mesolimbic system may
The aim of this study was to detect a relationship between hemodynamic disorders in patients with hemorrhagic fever with the renal syndrome (HFRS) and erythrocyte aggregability and erythrocyte membrane ATPase activity. A total of 100 patients with HFRS of different severity were examined. Central
A 28-month-old boy (height, 76 cm; weight, 9.4 kg) diagnosed as having Williams syndrome presented for dental care. We report a case of postoperatively suspected malignant hyperthermia after the administration of general anesthesia for dental treatment in this patient with severe supravalvular
OBJECTIVE
Acetaminophen (paracetamol) is the most commonly used medication for pain and fever during pregnancy in many countries. Research data suggest that acetaminophen is a hormone disruptor, and abnormal hormonal exposures in pregnancy may influence fetal brain development.
OBJECTIVE
To evaluate
The differential diagnosis of fever-induced movement disorders in childhood is broad. Whole exome sequencing has yielded new insights into those cases with a suspected genetic basis. We report the case of an 8-year-old boy with a history of neonatal seizures who presented with near-continuous
Clinical, serologic, epidemiological and neurological studies were carried out in 23 patients (18 men, 5 women) aged 15-69 years who had chronic Russian tick-borne encephalitis (RTE). With permanent stable humoral immunity the fact that these forms might develop was confirmed in 73.9% of the cases.
A 66-year-old man developed a fever and had a syncopal attack during treatment with imipramine and amantadine for depression and Parkinson's disease. His muscular enzyme levels were very high, so he was diagnosed with incomplete syndrome malin and given hydration therapy. The electrocardiogram
A case of intentional intoxication with pentachlorophenol has been described. Salient features observed included pyrexia, diaphoresis, hyperkinesis, muscle twitching, tremors, epigastric tenderness, leg pain, tachypnea, and tachycardia. The patient's restlessness and agitation were controlled with
