[Clinico-physiologic analysis of psychogenic tics in children]. 1984

S B Shvarkov, and V L Golubev

The results obtained in a study of 100 patients formed the basis for major differential diagnostic criteria of psychogenic tics in children. Polygraphic examination of the sleep-wakefulness cycle revealed dysfunctions in the nonspecific cerebral systems in the form of hyperfunction of the activating and insufficiency of the inhibitory apparatuses which were expressed in all functional states in the EEG, motor and vegetative spheres. These changes are considered to be pathogenetically important in view of their connection with the most significant clinical characteristics of the disease. On the basis of electrophysiological indicators, the data were obtained which substantiate therapeutic efficacy of psychostimulators in patients with the syndrome of motor hyperactivity.

D004562	Electrocardiography	Recording of the moment-to-moment electromotive forces of the HEART as projected onto various sites on the body's surface, delineated as a scalar function of time. The recording is monitored by a tracing on slow moving chart paper or by observing it on a cardioscope, which is a CATHODE RAY TUBE DISPLAY.	12-Lead ECG,12-Lead EKG,12-Lead Electrocardiography,Cardiography,ECG,EKG,Electrocardiogram,Electrocardiograph,12 Lead ECG,12 Lead EKG,12 Lead Electrocardiography,12-Lead ECGs,12-Lead EKGs,12-Lead Electrocardiographies,Cardiographies,ECG, 12-Lead,EKG, 12-Lead,Electrocardiograms,Electrocardiographies, 12-Lead,Electrocardiographs,Electrocardiography, 12-Lead

D001341	Autonomic Nervous System	The ENTERIC NERVOUS SYSTEM; PARASYMPATHETIC NERVOUS SYSTEM; and SYMPATHETIC NERVOUS SYSTEM taken together. Generally speaking, the autonomic nervous system regulates the internal environment during both peaceful activity and physical or emotional stress. Autonomic activity is controlled and integrated by the CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM, especially the HYPOTHALAMUS and the SOLITARY NUCLEUS, which receive information relayed from VISCERAL AFFERENTS.
