Extrapyramidal symptoms

Extrapyramidal symptoms (EPS), including Drug-induced Parkinsonism, Acute Dystonia, Akathisia, and Tardive Dyskinesia, are prevalent side effects of antipsychotic therapy in schizophrenia patients, presenting significant challenges to patient well-being and care. It is essential to identify demographic and clinical factors associated with EPS to optimize treatment strategies. This study aims to integrate statistical analysis with machine learning techniques to predict the onset and severity of EPS in patients with schizophrenia. A prevalence study was conducted among schizophrenia patients rec

Parkinson's patients face many challenges in their daily lives due to their symptoms. Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) is an intervention that uses electrical stimulation to help alleviate some of the extrapyramidal symptoms. However, DBS also has some notable side effects, one of which is its impact on sleep. The impact of DBS on sleep architecture, circadian rhythms, and other various sleep issues is not well understood. This paper will evaluate peer-reviewed publications on the effect of DBS on sleep, the mechanisms, and the effects for the patients. The conclusion of these questionnaires is
