Tremor and the anti-obesity drug BRL 26830A.

Only registered users can translate articles

The thermogenic beta 3-adrenoceptor agonist BRL 26830A has been shown to increase weight loss in dieting subjects but tremor was a frequent adverse effect. We have investigated the magnitude and nature of this tremor after a single oral dose in 18 subjects. Two complementary techniques were used to

Mutations in CUL4B, which encodes a ubiquitin E3 ligase subunit, cause an X-linked mental retardation syndrome associated with aggressive outbursts, seizures, relative macrocephaly, central obesity, hypogonadism, pes cavus, and tremor.

We have identified three truncating, two splice-site, and three missense variants at conserved amino acids in the CUL4B gene on Xq24 in 8 of 250 families with X-linked mental retardation (XLMR). During affected subjects' adolescence, a syndrome emerged with delayed puberty, hypogonadism, relative

Candidate variants in TUB are associated with familial tremor

Only registered users can translate articles

Essential tremor (ET) is the most common adult-onset movement disorder. In the present study, we performed whole exome sequencing of a large ET-affected family (10 affected and 6 un-affected family members) and identified a TUB p.V431I variant (rs75594955) segregating in a manner consistent with

Obesity and deep brain stimulation: an overview.

Only registered users can translate articles

Deep brain stimulation (DBS) has been employed to treat a variety of disorders such as Parkinson disease, dystonia, and essential tremor. Newer indications such as epilepsy and obsessive-compulsive disorder have been added to the armamentarium. In this review, we present an initial summary of

Clinical studies with fluoxetine in obesity.

Only registered users can translate articles

Fluoxetine is a highly specific serotonin reuptake inhibitor. In studies that used a dose of 60 mg once daily, fluoxetine-treated patients consistently had greater weight loss than placebo-treated patients. In six double-blind, placebo-controlled studies of 6-8 wk duration, mean weight changes on

The effects of a new beta-adrenoceptor agonist BRL 26830A in refractory obesity.

Only registered users can translate articles

Beta-adrenoceptor agonists have recently been shown to promote substantial loss of adipose tissue in laboratory animals. One of these BRL, 26830A, increases thermogenesis in human volunteers and has been shown to enhance the rate of weight reduction in patients adhering to a strict reducing regimen.

Isometric thermogenesis at rest and during movement: a neglected variable in energy expenditure and obesity predisposition.

Only registered users can translate articles

Isometric thermogenesis as applied to human energy expenditure refers to heat production resulting from increased muscle tension. While most physical activities consist of both dynamic and static (isometric) muscle actions, the isometric component is very often essential for the optimal performance

Deep brain stimulation for treatment of obesity in rats.

Only registered users can translate articles

OBJECTIVE Given the success of deep brain stimulation (DBS) in a variety of applications (for example, Parkinson disease and essential tremor), other indications for which there is currently little effective therapy are being evaluated for clinical use of DBS. Obesity may be one such indication.

Conditions Associated with Essential Tremor in Veterans: A Potential Role for Chronic Stress.

Only registered users can translate articles

Increased depression, hearing loss, dementia, alcoholism, and mortality in essential tremor patients remain unexplained. We investigated whether conditions associated with tremor are linked to chronic stress. The FY2013 Veterans Affairs database was queried for 38 selected dual diagnosis

Risk Factors for Cognitive Impairment in Fragile X-Associated Tremor/Ataxia Syndrome.

Only registered users can translate articles

Fragile X-associated tremor/ataxia syndrome (FXTAS) is a late-onset neurodegenerative disease with motor, psychiatric, and cognitive manifestations that occurs in carriers of the fragile X mental retardation 1 ( FMR1) gene premutations. This was a retrospective chart review of 196 individuals (127

The effect and safety of an ephedrine/caffeine compound compared to ephedrine, caffeine and placebo in obese subjects on an energy restricted diet. A double blind trial.

Only registered users can translate articles

The sympathomimetic agent ephedrine has potent thermogenic and anti-obesity properties in rodents. The effect is markedly enhanced by caffeine, while caffeine given alone has no effect. This study was undertaken to find out if a similar weight reducing synergism between ephedrine and caffeine is

FMR1 premutation with Prader-Willi phenotype and fragile X-associated tremor/ataxia syndrome.

Only registered users can translate articles

This is a report of FMR1 premutation with Prader-Willi phenotype (PWP) and FXTAS. Although the PWP is common in fragile X syndrome (FXS), it has never been described in someone with the premutation. The patient presented intranuclear inclusions, severe obesity, hyperphagia, and ADHD symptoms,

[From the clinical to the genetic diagnosis of Prader-Willi and Angelman syndromes].

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND Angelman syndrome (AS) is characterised by severe mental retardation (MR), the absence of language, ataxia and/or tremors in the extremities and a characteristic behavioural phenotype with a happy behaviour and hyperactivity. Patients often show signs of microcephaly and convulsions.

Congenital adrenal hyperplasia and brain magnetic resonance imaging abnormalities.

Only registered users can translate articles

A 15-yr-old male patient with congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) was referred to our department with a one year history of gradual worsening of tremors. He was diagnosed with salt-wasting 21-hydroxylase deficiency CAH at 40 d old and was started on hydrocortisone, fludrocortisone and salt. He was
