OBJECTIVE
A dissociation between behavioural (in-control) and physiological parameters (indicating loss-of-control) is associated with cardiovascular risk in defensive coping (DefS) Africans. We evaluated relationships between DefS, sub-clinical atherosclerosis, low-grade inflammation and
A 97-year-old woman was provoked a convulsion after taking a new quinolone antibiotic drug Levofloxacin and a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug Loxoprofen. At a later time, she was suffered from severe chest pain. An electrocardiogram showed ST segment elevation in leads II, III and aVF, and
BACKGROUND
Limited data exist on epidemiology, clinical presentation and management of acute hyperkinetic movement disorders (AHMD) in paediatric emergency departments (pED).
METHODS
We retrospectively analysed a case series of 256 children (aged 2 months to 17 years) presenting with AHMD to the
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 chronic use of drugs that reduce the dopaminergic neurotransmission can cause a hyperkinetic movement disorder called tardive dyskinesia (TD). The pathophysiology of this disorder is not entirely understood but could involve oxidative and neuroinflammatory mechanisms. Cannabidiol (CBD), the
The multiple organ failure syndrome (MOF) is a relatively new entity defined as the successive occurrence of respiratory (ARDS), hepatic, renal, myocardial, gastro-intestinal or neurological failure in patients with hyperkinetic haemodynamic and hypermetabolic states. The etiologies are: infection,
Holmes' tremor (rubral or midbrain outflow tremor) refers to a hyperkinetic movement disorder characterized by mild resting and more severe postural and action tremor often with associated brainstem symptoms, dystonia and cerebellar deficits. This syndrome should prompt lesional evaluation with
Diffuse encephalitis occurred in a 2 year old girl, with activation of a chorioretinitis, which on clinical and serological grounds was taken to be caused by toxoplasma infection. The small patient presented clinically not only typical ocular lesions (bilateral chorioretinitis) but also neurological
In April 1917, Dr Constantin von Economo presented his clinical and pathologic findings of a new disease--soon to be part of a worldwide epidemic--before the Vienna Psychiatric Society. He named it encephalitis lethargica. After years of careful observation, he collected and analyzed thousands of
Our investigation showed for the patients with reactive arthritis typical is hyperkinetic type of haemodynamic, and also structural changes of the heart which manifestate by interventricular partition's thickness as a result of inflammatory edema and it's valve consolidation frequently whithout
OBJECTIVE
The purpose of this study is to review the relevant literature concerning work-associated irritable larynx syndrome (WILS), a hyperkinetic laryngeal disorder associated with occupational irritant exposure. Clinical symptoms are variable and include dysphonia, cough, dyspnoea and globus
OBJECTIVE
To compare the effects of different doses of hemofiltration on severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) in pigs.
METHODS
The animal model of SAP was produced by intraductal injection of sodium taurocholate and trypsin. Animals in group 1 served as SAP control. Animals in group 2 received (20 mL/kg
Systemic lupus erythematosus is a non-specific inflammatory disorder of an organ of unknown cause and autoimmune origin. Visceral injuries, including those cardiovascular, determine the prognosis of this disease primarily affecting women. The objectives of this study were to determine the frequency
This study of 170 children in the Czech Republic examines the clinical course and sequelae for tick-borne encephalitis. Evaluated were demographic and epidemiological data, signs and symptoms at admission, clinical course during hospital stay and laboratory findings. Cerebrospinal fluid was analysed
A case of infective endocarditis caused by methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) was successfully treated with a combination therapy with cefmetazole (CMZ) and fosfomycin (FOM). A 55 year old man was admitted to the Keio Hospital because of fever of unknown origin. Physical examination
