Acute brain syndrome as a consequence of the Cronkhite-Canada syndrome.

BACKGROUND: Cronkhite-Canada syndrome is a very rare illness and psychical disturbances developed as a consequence of this illness are very rarely described. That is the case because majority of the symptoms of this syndrome are associated with the polyposis of the gastrointestinal tract. AIM: The aim of this case report is to link the development of acute brain syndrome with this rare syndrome. PATIENT: The patient was two times treated under the diagnosis of Cronkhite-Canada syndrome in the clinics of internal medicine in Rijeka and Zagreb, and then in the Psychiatric Clinic in Rijeka under the diagnosis of acute brain syndrome (F05.0). RESULT: Therapy with a typical antipsychotic (haloperidol) and corresponding internistic treatment gave results very fast and calmed acute delirium. CONCLUSION: Typical antipsychotics are efficient in the treatment of the acute brain syndrome caused by Cronkhite-Canada syndrome. Acute brain syndrome is caused solely by the lack of electrolytes and other important nutrients because of a malabsorption syndrome, conditioned by a diffuse polyposis of intestines.

Studies on the stability of injectable solutions of some phenothiazines. Part 2: Effect of chelating agents and antioxidants.

Chelating agents (disodium EDTA, DTPA, HEDTA and NTA) exhibit a stabilizing action towards phenothiazines to different extents. This could be correlated to the stability constants of their metal chelates as well as to the dependency of these constants on the pH-value of the solution. Antioxidants (sodium bisulphite, sodium dithionite, and sodium metabisulphite) also exert a stabilizing effect which could be correlated--in the first place--to the pH-value of the solution. The sulphur content of the antioxidant might also be relevant to such an effect.

[Drug therapy of so-called postherpetic neuralgia, the only valid alternative. Clinical experience in 43 treated cases].

The efficacy of tricyclic antidepressants in association with neuroleptics having been demonstrated in patients suffering from so-called tardive post-herpetic neuralgia, 43 patients were given this treatment either alone or in association with transcutaneous nerve stimulation (TENS). Of the 33 patients given drug treatment alone, 25 found relief from pain in 3-18 months, 5 produced a partial result and in 3 the treatment failed. The results obtained suggest that this is the most effective treatment as long as it is continuous and given for at least 3-6 months. The use of TENS produced no benefit.
