Objective: To describe a challenging clinical case of akinetic-rigid syndrome in the setting of delayed post-hypoxic leukoencephalopathy (DPHL). Background: The susceptibility of basal ganglia to hypoxic-ischemic injury can lead to immediate…Feasibility of Remote Identification of Catatonia Across Different Motor Presentations
Objective: To evaluate the feasibility of the identification of catatonia by trained raters through remote viewing of motor assessments across patients with differing motor profiles…Development of a Rating Instrument to Identify Catatonia by Virtual Viewing of Motor Assessments
Objective: To develop a rating instrument to identify catatonia by virtual viewing of motor assessments Background: Catatonia is a motor comorbidity complicating mental and physical…Down-titration of levodopa complicated by catatonia
Objective: Provide evidence that reductions in levodopa can trigger catatonia Background: Dopamine dysregulation syndrome (DDS) occurs when patients crave and self-up-titrate levodopa, often leading to…Feasibility of Reliable, Remote Assessment of a 13-year-old Boy Who Stopped Talking
Objective: To assess the feasibility of reliable, remote assessments of videos of a 13-year-old boy who stopped talking Background: The sudden absence of speech in…Malignant catatonia secondary to clozapine withdrawal: A case report
Objective: To report a patient with malignant catatonia from abrupt clozapine discontinuation. Background: Clozapine blocks 5HT2A/5HT2C serotonin and dopamine receptors. Cholinergic and serotoninergic rebounds have…Catatonic Syndrome in Covid-19 Infection: Medication Treatment or Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy.
Objective: Catatonic syndrome, or catatonia (from other Greek κατατείνω - “stretch, strain”), is a psychopathological syndrome (a group of symptoms), the main clinical manifestation of…Catatonia, Parkinsonism and Dystonia in a patient with Osmotic Demyelination Syndrome
Objective: We present a case of Osmotic Demyelination Syndrome (ODS) in a patient who underwent liver transplant and subsequently developed multiple movement disorders. Background: ODS…An extraordinary cause of psychosis: Anti-NMDA receptor encephalitis
Objective: Anti-N-methyl-D-aspartate (anti-NMDA) receptor encephalitis is an autoimmune encephalitis affecting predominantly young females. Background: It is characterized with neuropsychiatric symptoms, including personality changes, psychosis, autonomic…Carrier mediated delivery system bearing dopamine for effective management of parkinsonism
Objective: In the present investigation, amino acid coupled liposome bearing dopamine-HCl were prepared to deliver drug to the brain utilizing receptor-mediated transcytosis for effective management…
