A descriptive study of bipolar affective disorder in adolescent patients, conducted over a 10-year period, is presented. The diagnosis 30 subjects referred to an treatment facility major teaching hospital was reviewed using DSM-III criteria, and antecedent symptomatology signs were documented. Common diagnostic features included schizophreniform phenomenology, motoric vegetative changes, suicidal inappropriate sexual behaviour stormy first year illness. positive family history frequently...
The effect of acute and chronic administration lithium carbonate on electroencephalogram (EEG), behavior serum electrolytes was studied in 10 patients. Five patients, 3 whom are manic-depressive the manic phase, 2 who were schizo-affective excited received as part a double blind, controlled evaluation chlorpromazine states. remaining 5 patient volunteers study electrolyte metabolism. EEG studies carried out using 16-channel model 6B electroencephalograph and, addition, data placed magnetic...

The aim of this study was to replicate the findings a 1994 study, in which 30% response rate venlafaxine found patients with treatment-refractory depression, as well examine for any predictors such an outcome. 8-week, open-label, prospective investigation doses up 300 mg 312 fulfilling criteria either "absolute" or "relative" treatment resistance. By week 8, 52.6% had responded, defined 50% reduction scores on Montgomery-Åsberg Depression Rating Scale; 49% those "absolute resistance"...
Objective: This randomized, double-blind, multicentre extension study compared the efficacy, tolerability, and safety of ziprasidone risperidone for schizophrenia or schizoaffective disorder.
