CANDIDATE GENES ENCODING DOPAMINE RECEPTORS AS PREDICTORS OF THE RISK OF ANTIPSYCHOTIC-INDUCED PARKINSONISM AND TARDIVE DYSKINESIA IN SCHIZOPHRENIC PATIENTS

Candidate Genes Encoding Dopamine Receptors as Predictors of the Risk of Antipsychotic-Induced Parkinsonism and Tardive Dyskinesia in Schizophrenic Patients

(1) Introduction: Extrapyramidal disorders form the so-called extrapyramidal syndrome (EPS), which is characterized by the occurrence of motor disorders as a result of damage to the basal ganglia and the subcortical-thalamic connections.Often, this syndrome develops while taking medications, in particular antipsychotics (APs).(2) Purpose: To review

An unusual presentation of subacute Haemophilus parainfluenzae endocarditis in a low-risk woman treated by minimally invasive mitral valve repair: a case report

Abstract Background HACEK endocarditis is usually insidious and can often be difficult to diagnose due to the slow-growing nature of the organisms.This report presents our experience in treating a patient with Haemophilus parainfluenzae endocarditis.Case presentation We describe the case of a previously fit and well 23 year-old woman who presented

Fault-Tolerant Metric Dimension of Interconnection Networks

A fixed interconnection parallel architecture is characterized by a graph, with vertices corresponding to processing nodes and edges representing communication links.An ordered set $R$ of nodes in a graph $G$ is said to be a resolving set of $G$ if every node in $G$ is uniquely determined by its Roller Pad vector of distances to the nodes in $R$.Ea
