-The medical records of 265 hyperkinetic children carefully selected from out-patients at a treatment centre during the period 1973-1976 were studied for clinical blood chemistry, haematology and results of 5-hr glucose tolerance tests. All the children had been diagnosed as hyperkinetic at least twice including at least one occasion by a physician. Children with other known physical or emotion...

To determine the essential mechanism of increased systolic wall motion, i.e., hyperkinesis, in a nonischemic region (NIR) during acute ischemia, we simultaneously evaluated global and regional function of the excised, cross-circulated canine left ventricle connected to a volume servo pump before and after coronary occlusion. Regional areas were determined with pairs of orthogonal subendocardial...

Tako-tsubo cardiomyopathy, known since 1990, is described as hypo/akinesis of apical heart segments with the hyperkinesis of the basis of the heart which mimics the shape of a traditional Japanese octopus trap.

Involuntary movement is one of the most disturbing and problematic side effects of L-dopa in the treatment of Parkinsonism. Several attempts have been made to reduce this complication, such as an addition of adjuvant, (4) and use of slow release L-dopa. However, the problem remains unsolved probably because hyperkinesis occurs when the akinesis of Parkinonism is overcorrected by L-dopa and prod...

A 78-year-old woman was admitted to hospital with central chest pain and the electrocardiographic and cardiac marker changes typical of acute anterior myocardial infarction. Coronary angiography revealed normal epicardial coronary arteries, and left ventriculography showed apical akinesis as well as basal hyperkinesis. This is a case of transient left ventricular apical ballooning or takotsubo ...

Tartrazine, a common additive in foods and drugs, often causes adverse reactions such as recurrent urticaria, angioedema, and asthma and is frequently implicated in hyperkinesis. This paper summarizes the recent literature on the subject and outlines a practical approach for the practicing physician to diagnose and treat these patients in an optimal manner.

One of the important areas modern neurology is movement disorders, due to their negative impact on daily activity and quality life patients. Dystonia third most common extrapyramidal disease. Often, dystonia accompanied by trembling hyperkinesis, however, known data dystonic tremor are scattered not systematized, its fixation causes difficulties lack clear tremorographic characteristics. Many i...
