The RESTORE-LIFE study (ClinicalTrials.govNCT03320304) is a global, prospective, multi-center, observational study, which assesses the long-term effectiveness and safety of vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) as an adjunctive treatment in difficult-to-treat depression (DTD). Data on impact parameters clinical outcome are limited. ongoing, however titration their association with response was analyzed first 100 patients (mean age 50.0, range 22-79) reaching 12 months follow-up. Daily charge...
Neurological soft signs (NSS) are minor sensory and motor deviations linked to neurodevelopmental disorders schizophrenia spectrum (SSD). Thyroid hormones (TH) essential for neurodevelopment suggested be altered in SSD. Yet, the relationship between NSS TH is unclear. We evaluated individuals with examined a total of 72 assessed using Evaluation Scale (NES) clinical symptoms Positive Negative Syndrome (PANSS). collected fasting blood samples measure serum levels thyroid-stimulating hormone...
Background: During the last few decades prevalence of lumbar disc herniation has been increasing constantly, thereby imposing a significant socioeconomic burden. Physiotherapy plays crucial role in both surgical and conservative treatment herniation, consequently current COVID-19 pandemic with concomitant lockdowns led to shortage physiotherapeutical care. In light these recent events publicly available physiotherapy tutorials may be useful tool address this problem. Aim: The main aim study...
The second-generation anticonvulsant lamotrigine is widely used in the psychiatric field as a mood stabilizer or antidepressant augmentation therapy. Although particularly older anticonvulsants are known for their potential to cause hypersensitivity syndromes, newer antiepileptic drugs do hold certain risk well. Presenting case of 32-year-old male inpatient African ethnicity suffering from primary severe depressive episode course recurrent major disorder, we report occurrence rapid-onset...
Autonomic symptoms in alcohol withdrawal syndrome (AWS) are associated with a sympathetic-driven imbalance of the autonomic nervous system. To restore balance AWS, novel neuromodulatory approaches could be beneficial. We conducted pilot trial percutaneous auricular vagus nerve stimulation (pVNS) AWS and hypothesized that pVNS will enhance parasympathetic tone represented by reduction pupillary dilation parasympatholytic pharmacological challenge.
The non-benzodiazepine hypnotic zolpidem is frequently administered as a short term psychopharmacotherapy for insomnia. Although it well-established in broad clinical routine and often well-tolerated, severe delirium complex sleep behavior were reported rare cases. Hereby, remains unclear whether zolpidem's potential might be enhanced when combined with further psychopharmacotherapeutics. present case report portrays young male Caucasian inpatient schizoaffective disorder, who was admitted...
