Neonatal maternal separation (NMS) is a form of stress that exerts persistent, sex-specific effects on the hypoxic ventilatory response. Adult male rats previously subjected to NMS show a 25% increase in the response, whereas NMS females show a response 30% lower than controls (8). To assess the extent to which NMS affects ventilatory control development, we tested the hypothesis that NMS alter...

BACKGROUND Non-motor symptoms (NMS) in Parkinson's disease (PD) are frequent, increase the patients' disability and have an important negative impact on their quality of life. METHODS We used a Dutch translation of the Non-Motor Symptoms Questionnaire (NMSQuest) to identify NMS in a population of 215 Belgian PD patients. RESULTS A median number of 8 NMS was reported per patient. Urinary urg...

OBJECTIVE Neuroleptic malignant syndrome (NMS) is a rare life-threatening condition associated with the use of antipsychotics and other drugs that influence dopaminergic transmission. Although NMS is typically associated with classical antipsychotics, it can also be induced by atypical antipsychotics. In this paper, we report a case of NMS associated with clozapine use. CASE A 27-year-old mal...

OBJECTIVE The authors report three cases of neuroleptic malignant syndrome (NMS) induced by atypical antipsychotics (olanzapine and clozapine) which showed classic features of NMS including muscular rigidity and prominent fever. METHOD Case reports. RESULTS A 66-year-old man with dementia and alcohol abuse developed NMS while on olanzapine for agitation and combativeness. A 62-year-old man ...

Neuroleptic malignant syndrome (NMS) with characteristic symptoms is a potentially lethal reaction to antipsychotic drugs. Atypical NMS usually lacks major symptoms and frequently occurs after treatment using atypical antipsychotics, such as aripiprazole. A 64-year-old man developed aripiprazole-induced NMS after surgery, and our early recognition of the NMS was based on high creatine kinase le...

The cyclic voltammetry of both bulk manganese sulfate (BMS) and nano manganese sulfate (NMS) were studied using 0.1M KCl supporting electrolyte and glassy carbon working electrode. The redox behavior for both bulk (BMS) and MnSO4 (NMS) sulfate was studied voltammetrically in presence and absence of Doxorubicin (DR) using three electrodes system, silver- silver chloride (Ag/AgCl), pla...
