UNASSIGNED
Amyloid-β is a major component of retinal drusen, the primary lesions of age-related macular degeneration (AMD), and autopsy and animal models suggested that anticholinergic drug (ACD) use increased brain amyloid-β deposition.
UNASSIGNED
To investigate the association between exposure to
BACKGROUND
We examined how long-term anticholinergic (AC) drug use beginning at midlife affects risk of Alzheimer's disease (AD) and rates of brain atrophy in cognitively normal older adults.
METHODS
We followed 723 individuals (mean baseline age 52.3 years; mean follow-up interval 20.1 years) in
BACKGROUND
The most serious adverse effect of clozapine, agranulocytosis, was described for the first time in Finland in 1975. It caused the immediate withdrawal of clozapine from the market and immediate discontinuation of this medication in all patients. It is now known that abrupt withdrawal of
We present the case of a patient with an atypical course of frontotemporal lobar degeneration (FTLD) complicated by the use of an anticholinergic drug. A 70-year-old patient, followed by psychiatrists for depression and behavioral disorders, received a diagnosis of dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB) at
The use of anticholinergic (AC) medication is linked to cognitive impairment and an increased risk of dementia. To our knowledge, this is the first study to investigate the association between AC medication use and neuroimaging biomarkers of brain metabolism and atrophy as a proxy for understanding
Two siblings who exhibited hereditary parkinsonism with pyramidal signs and cerebellar ataxia are reported. Anticholinergics had a dramatic beneficial effect in both cases, but levodopa did not. This responsiveness, which is similar to that reported in patients with Joseph's disease, suggests
OBJECTIVE
To determine if prophylactic use of clean intermittent catheterization and oxybutynin chloride is effective in preventing urinary tract deterioration in myelodysplastic children with high bladder pressure and detrusor-sphincter dyssynergia.
METHODS
Sequential, nonrandomized
A 42-year-old woman suffered unexplained weight loss followed by action tremor and difficulty initiating gait. Three months after onset of symptoms, infiltrating ductal carcinoma of the breast, metastatic to liver and lymph nodes, was diagnosed and treated briefly with cyclophosphamide,
In experiments involving training of albino rats in a maze it has been established that amphetamine in a dose of 0.5 mg/kg introduced 15 min before learning has almost no effect, in a dose of 2 mg/kg it slightly deteriorates learning and retention, while in a dose of 1 mg/kg both learning and
Parkinson's Disease (PD) is often associated with a subcortico-frontal syndrome (SCFS) that is mainly characterized by executive dysfunctions. The complete biochemistry of these dysfunctions remain misunderstood. Most studies have focused on the well-known nigro-striatal dopaminergic degenerations
