dopa/癲癇性発作

The effects of levodopa, apomorphine and 3,4-dihydroxyphenylserine (DOPS) on tonic seizures elicited by strychnine were investigated in mice. Levodopa (6.25-100 mg/kg), apomorphine (0.2-0.8 mg/kg) and FLA-63 (12.5 mg/kg) profoundly delayed the onset and reduced the incidence of strychnine seizures.

The influence of dopamine, levodopa and apomorphine on maximal electroconvulsive seizure was studied in young chicks, adult cocks and rats. The susceptibility of chicks to maximal electroshock seizure increased with age between 1 to 7 days. Low to moderate doses of dopamine (12.5-150 mg/kg, i.p.),

A 68-year-old woman with parkinsonism showed cortical myoclonus and seizures under antiparkinsonian medication. Myoclonus was induced and enhanced by L-dopa, developing into generalized seizures. EEG was abnormal and somatosensory-evoked potentials (SEPs) showed giant SEPs, transcortical reflex (C

There is recent evidence that deprenyl may have anticonvulsant action in a rat kindling model of epilepsy as well as in a maximal electroshock model. We therefore investigated the effect of deprenyl on the brain sensitivity threshold to pentylenetetrazol (PTZ)-induced maximal seizures in Lewis rats,

BACKGROUND Chronic administration of dopaminomimetic drugs, levodopa before all, to patients with Parkinson's disease (PD) is accompanied with numerous complications. Psychiatric complications are not only frequent, but also difficult to manage. Reduction of the daily dose or complete

Levodopa/carbidopa intestinal gel (LCIG) infusion for the treatment of advanced Parkinson's disease (PD) has been suspected to provoke polyneuropathy in conjunction with vitamin B6, B12 and folate deficiency and elevated homocysteine levels. We describe a PD patient under LCIG therapy developing

We assessed the clinical characteristics and efficacy of neurotransmitters and levetiracetam in a patient with hyperphenylalaninemia due to dihydropteridine reductase (DHPR) deficiency who developed epileptic seizures. A boy with DHPR deficiency, who had been successfully treated with

UNASSIGNED To determine the incidence of post-stroke seizures and the associated risk factors in a government-restructured hospital in Singapore. UNASSIGNED This retrospective study included consecutive patients (age ≥21 years) admitted to the stroke rehabilitation facility at Changi General

We describe a patient with epilepsy characterized by eyelid myoclonus, which often evolved into complex partial seizures, hemiconvulsions, or generalized convulsions. The outstanding feature was that seizures became markedly more frequent on exposure to light, movement in daily life, and hot water

Two patients with similar clinical features are presented: both patients had chronic renal failure, on hemodialysis for many years but recently begun on a high-flux dialyzer; both had been receiving a carbidopa/levodopa preparation; and both had the onset of hallucinosis and recurrent seizures,
