Item Bereitschaftspotential in tic disorders: a preliminary observation.(2002-12-11) Duggal, H S; Nizamie, S HaqueSensory phenomena in tic disorders such as Tourette's syndrome are known but are substantiated by only a handful of studies. In this preliminary report, we studied premonitory urge, a type of sensory phenomenon in three patients of tic disorders. Bereitschaftspotential, a movement-related cognitive potential indicative of motor preparation, was assessed in these patients. As bereitschaftspotential was observed in all our cases prior to occurrence of tics, it is speculated that tics are not entirely involuntary but are quasi-volitional in nature. Bereitschaftspotential may thus represent a neurophysiological marker of premonitory urge in tic disorders. Implications of exploring the voluntary nature of tics are discussed.Item Clozapine-induced double incontinence.(2007-12-05) Mendhekar, D N; Duggal, H SItem Post-encephalitic Kluver-Bucy syndrome.(2000-01-01) Duggal, H S; Jain, R; Sinha, V K; Nizamie, S HKluver-Bucy syndrome is a rare amalgamation of neurobehavioural signs and symptoms seen infrequently in humans following insult to bilateral temporal lobes. This report presents a case which along with emerging symptoms of Kluver-Bucy syndrome, developed Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) consequent to viral encephalitis. The case highlights the presentation and management of this syndrome in a six-year-old girl with primary focus on the implications of Kluver-Bucy symptoms in current clinical practice involving neurobehavioural syndromes in children.Item Stevens-Johnson syndrome due to carbamazepine.(2001-05-22) Duggal, H S; Khess, C RItem Substance abuse in children and adolescents.(2001-02-04) Duggal, H S; Khess, C R
