Parallels between neuroleptic effects and lethargic encephalitis: the production of dyskinesias and cognitive disorders.
A retrospective examination of lethargic encephalitis finds many parallels with neuroleptic effects. The encephalitis, like the neuroleptics, produced an acute continuum of cognitive disorders from emotional indifference through apathy and onto a rousable stupor. It also produced similar acute dyskinesias, including akinesia, akathisia, dystonia, oculogyric crises, and tremors. The encephalitis...
متن کاملModelling the lethargic crab disease.
The lethargic crab disease (LCD) is an emergent infirmity that has decimated native populations of the mangrove land crab (Ucides cordatus, Decapoda: Ocypodidae) along the Brazilian coast. Several potential etiological agents have been linked with LCD, but only in 2005 was it proved that it is caused by an ascomycete fungus. This is the first attempt to develop a mathematical model to describe ...
متن کاملParoxysmal dyskinesias in the lethargic mouse mutant.
Lethargic mutant mice carry a mutation in the CCHB4 gene, which encodes the beta4 subunit of voltage-regulated calcium channels. These mutants have been shown to display a complex neurobehavioral phenotype that includes EEG discharges suggestive of absence epilepsy, chronic ataxia, and hypoactivity. The current studies demonstrate a fourth element of their phenotype, consisting of transient att...
متن کاملLethargic mitochondria are left out
Lethargic mitochondria are left out he proper processing of a mitochondrial fusion protein called Mgm1 depends on sufficient ATP, based on results from Herlan et al. (page 167). Mgm1's energy dependence may ensure that tired mitochondria get left behind. Mgm1 can be found in the mitochondrial intermembrane space in two forms, the shorter of which (s-Mgm1) is generated by protease cleavage of th...
متن کاملCreating chronicity
An authentic sickness history is the vantage point for juxtaposing a biomedical and a biographical-phenomenological reading. What, in a biomedical framework, appears to be a longstanding state of comorbidity of different and unrelated types of diseases is rendered transparent in a biographical reading. This particular reading, evidencing the shortcomings of a biomedical framework regarding iden...
