objective: the present study aimed to review the relapse rate in patients with schizophrenia treated with orally taken atypical agents (serotonin dopamine antagonists, sdas) and depot preparation of conventional (typical) antipsychotics. methods: in this historical cohort study, mean relapse per month (mrm) index, duration between initiation of antipsychotic treatment and the first relapse epis...

traditionally, schizophrenia was considered to be a severe psychiatric disorder, with a chronic course and an unfavorable outcome. throughout history, there has been incidence of schizophrenia, roughly one percent of the population, consistently, in every culture. it is generally acknowledged that schizophrenia has multifactorial etiology, with multiple susceptibility genes interacting with env...

in the present study, interactions of dopamine receptor agonists and antagonists with water swimming stress (wss) on naloxone-induced jumping in morphine-dependent mice were examined. mice were rendered dependent as described in the methods section. the opioid receptor antagonist, naloxone (1 mg/kg), was injected to elicit jumping (as a withdrawal sign). the first group exposed to wss in the pr...

background: non motor symptoms (nms) of idiopathic parkinson’s disease (pd) are a major cause of disability and recognition of these symptoms and treatment is important for comprehensive health care. deep   brain   stimulation   of   bilateral   subthalamic nucleus deep brain stimulation (stn dbs) has been shown to improve motor symptoms in pd and effects on nms are unknown. to investigate the ...

tics are sudden, recurrent and stereotyped motor movements or vocalizations. dopamine blockers are the main pharmacological agents used in the management of tics. opioid antagonists have been reported to have been effective in the management of tics. in this article, two patients with chronic motor tic disorder are reported, whose symptoms were disappeared by using opioid substances.

Objective:The objective of this study is to investigate the effects use inotropic agents on ABO and RH blood groups in adult cardiac surgery. Method: We retrospectively analyzed hospital information management system records files patients who underwent CPB between June 15, 2017 November 2019.We evaluated patients’ age, sex, group, diagnosis, fentanyl demizolam induction, time, cross-clamp oper...

introduction: according to previous studies, colchicine causes neuronal destruction and learning depression. in this project, effects of colchicine injection into the ca1 and interaction between colchicine and nitric oxide (no) in this area on the expression of drug-seeking behavior were investigated. methods: wistar rats (250-300 g) were bilaterally cannulated at the ca1 area. colchicine (2-8 ...

An adenylate cyclase that is activated specifically by low concentrations of dopamine has been demonstrated in homogenates of caudate nucleus of rat brain. A half-maximal increase in the activity of the enzyme occurred in the presence of 4 muM dopamine. Concentrations of dopamine as low as 0.3 muM stimulated the activity of the enzyme. The adenylate cyclase activity of the homogenates was also ...
