First reported in 1982 by Koufman and Blalock, (9) muscle tension dysphonia characterized by altered laryngeal biomechanics has since been referred to by different terms, including functional dysphonia, hyper-functional dysphonia, and
hyperkinetic dysphonia.
Bipolar electrical stimulation (100-130 Hz, 1-3 mA, 130 usec, up to 3.5 mA) further suppressed HH, and the
hyperkinetic movements became grossly undetectable after 7 days of external stimulation.
Children with ODD were more likely to have schooling problems and inappropriate behaviors while children with
Hyperkinetic Disorders were more likely to have socialization difficulties (P value less than .05).
Interestingly, reduction in stride length, which is considered as a hypokinetic feature, can be found at later ages, showing that gait follows the
hyperkinetic and hypokinetic course of the disease in HD [7].
The aetiology of attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and
hyperkinetic disorder (HKD), a severe form of ADHD, is not well understood but genetic and environmental factors are thought to contribute.
Acetaminophen use during pregnancy, behavioral problems, and
hyperkinetic disorders.
Major finding: Children exposed prenatally to acetaminophen were at a greater risk of being diagnosed with
hyperkinetic disorder, having ADHD-like behaviors, or being on an ADHD medication, an association that was increased with exposure during more than one trimester and with more weeks of exposure.
At age 11, researchers analysed prevalence of
hyperkinetic disorder among the children.
European clinical guidelines for
hyperkinetic disorder --first upgrade.
Dopamine receptor blocking agents (neuroleptics) are effective drugs for
hyperkinetic movement disorders (1,2).
AoSherlock HolmesAo enacts the strange new rites of
hyperkinetic action and impossible CGI, and Holmes and Watson do their best to upgrade themselves.
The aim was to establish patterns of service use among looked after children with behavioural problems (conduct disorders) and to explore whether contacts with different agencies were associated with other types of concurrent disorders, namely emotional and
hyperkinetic.
