Recent and exciting research in animals has described endogenous polypeptides, endorphins, which many biological respects resemble opiate agonists.<sup>1-3</sup>While behavioral effects are under intense investigation, the of pure endorphins man require specific testing. The effect antagonists schizophrenic patients<sup>4</sup>are some dispute, but a recent doubleblind study revealed no effects.<sup>5</sup>Thus, direct measures injected relevant to understanding their man. Accordingly, when...
This author's inspection of the literature on oral dyskinesia following prolonged phenothiazine administration reveals that many cases reported do not meet criteria necessary to establish existence a tardive, irreversible syndrome. He concludes incidence this side effect has been misrepresented and it should be regarded as significant danger in treatment.
The authors conducted single- and double-blind studies of the responses 7 chronic male schizophrenic patients to 10 mg naloxone. BPRS ratings were made before 6 hours after injection; ACTH blood levels determined 1 1/2 injection. Statistically significant improvement psychotic behavior occurred hours. greatest in patient who showed most pronounced diurnal variation levels, there was no had changes. Prolactin plasma following endorphin injections apparently dose-dependent peaked at...
There is a dearth of literature on the effects neuroleptics in older schizophrenia patients. In this article, we review available and present findings from our own studies. Neuroleptics are effective treatment late-life schizophrenia, although patients generally need lower dosages than younger subjects. Neuroleptics, however, carry relatively high risk side such as tardive dyskinesia (TD) middle-aged elderly By end 1 year prospective longitudinal study neuroleptic treatment, found 26 percent...
Abstract A group of gibbons (Hylobates lar) has been maintained in the seminatural, designed environment Hall island, Bermuda, since 1970, demonstrating feasability long term, experimental studies animals instrumented with intracerebral electrodes and a shoulder harness to carry radio stimulators telemetric units for recording mobility. Observations spontaneous behavior were synchronized using 5 sec units, broadcast experimenters field. The following conclusions are derived from our study:...
Fluphenazine enanthate is a useful and potent medication with clinically effective range of 10 to 20 days from single depot injection. The usefulness this preparation in preventing the hospitalization or re-hospitalization extremely psychotic patients illustrated discussed.
MORE HUMAN SUFFERING has resulted from depression than any other single disease. Despite their relatively recent introduction into medical practice, antidepressants are used in the treatment of over 4 million patients a year United States. Unfortunately our inability to detect certain types or get all obvious cases come for therapy contribute 20,000<i>known</i>suicides US, and at least twice that number who go undetected. Two persons this country estimated have made one suicidal...
1. In a series of 2,100 consecutive admissions to the Veterans Administration Hospital, Lyons, N. J., 72% schizophrenics were photographed in standardized somatotype position shortly after admission. 2. These photographs rated by Dr. William H. Sheldon, who had no knowledge as diagnosis, disposition, or any other pertinent information about patients. Since these patients included much larger made up psychoneurotics, neurological cases, and nonneuropsychiatric patients, addition...
