We examined whether an oral challenge dose of the amino acid phenylalanine (a dopamine precursor) exacerbates the abnormal movements of tardive dyskinesia (TD). We also examined age, gender, treatment duration, and baseline movement severity in relation to phenylalanine-induced changes in movements.

The aim of this observational study was to compare the prevalence of tardive dyskinesia (TD) in diabetic and non diabetic patients. We compared 34 diabetic patients with 34 non diabetic controls, matched by sex, age and time of admission, who had received a complete neuropsychiatric evaluation and w
## Abstract A metaโanalysis of prospective studies with schizophrenia patients was conducted to examine whether the evidence exists for risk factors for the emergence of Tardive Dyskinesia (TD) in schizophrenia. A computer assisted Medline/PubMed and Embase search was conducted in January 2008 for
Second-generation antipsychotic drugs (APDs), including aripiprazole, clozapine, olanzapine, risperidone, quetiapine, and ziprasidone dominate outpatient and inpatient clinical practice, having largely displaced the older neuroleptics. Modern APDs have relatively low risk for acute extrapyramidal sy
In order to ยฎnd a genetic marker for vulnerability to tardive dyskinesia (TD), we looked for an association between vulnerability to TD and polymorphic sites in the gene loci encoding the dopamine D2 receptor (Nco I site), the dopamine D3 receptor (Bal I site), and the dopamine transporter (40-bp, t
