    Second-generation versus first-generation antipsychotic drugs for schizophrenia: a meta- analysis Leucht S, Corves C, D Arbter, Engel R R, Li C, Davis J M CRD summary The authors concluded that amisulpride, clozapine, olanzapine and risperidone can be effective in treating schizophrenia patients. Second-generation antipsychotic drugs can also result in fewer extrapyramidal side effects, but can induce weight gain. The authors' conclusions reflected the evidence presented, but some potential methodological flaws in the review process meant that the extent to which those conclusions were reliable was unclear. Authors' objectives To compare the effects of first and second-generation antipsychotic drugs in schizophrenia patients. Searching The search for eligible studies was started in 2005, including MEDLINE to October 2006, Cochrane Schizophrenia Group's Specialised Register and the US Food and Drugs Administration website. Search terms were reported and there were no language restrictions. Previous reviews were searched for additional relevant studies. Study selection Randomised controlled trials (RCTs) of oral second-generation antipsychotic drugs (amisulpride, aripiprazole, clozapine, olanzapine, quetiapine, risperidone, sertindole, ziprasidone and zotepine) compared with first-generation drugs in patients with schizophrenia or related disorders (schizoaffective, schizophreniform or delusional disorders) irrespective of diagnostic criteria were eligible for inclusion in the review. The optimum doses of second-generation drugs were selected

What is the magnitude of metabolic dysregulation (defined as alterations in fasting glucose, total cholesterol, low density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol, high density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol, and triglyceride levels) and alterations in body weight and body mass index associated with short-term (‘acute’) antipsychotic treatment in individuals with schizophrenia? 2. Does baseline physiology (e.g. body weight) and demographics (e.g. age) of patients predict magnitude of antipsychotic-associated metabolic dysregulation? 3. Are alterations in metabolic parameters over time associated with alterations in degree of psychopathology? 1 Searches We plan to search EMBASE, PsycINFO, and MEDLINE from inception using the following terms: 1 (Acepromazine or Acetophenazine or Amisulpride or Aripiprazole or Asenapine or Benperidol or Blonanserin or Bromperidol or Butaperazine or Carpipramine or Chlorproethazine or Chlorpromazine or Chlorprothixene or Clocapramine or Clopenthixol or Clopentixol or Clothiapine or Clotiapine or Clozapine or Cyamemazine or Cyamepromazine or Dixyrazine or Droperidol or Fluanisone or Flupehenazine or Flupenthixol or Flupentixol or Fluphenazine or Fluspirilen or Fluspirilene or Haloperidol or Iloperidone

    THE EFFECT OF WHITE NOISE ON SHORT- AND LONG-TERM RECALL IN HYPERACTIVE BOYS by Norma Jean Arbuckle Dissertation submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate School of the University of Maryland in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy 1977 ABSTRACT Title of Dissertation: The Effect of White Noise on Short- and Long-Term Recall in Hyperactive Boys Norma Jean Arbuckle, Doctor of Philosophy, 1977 Dissertation directed by: Marie S. Davidson, Assistant Professor, Institute for Child Study The purpose of this research investigation was to determine whether an auditory arouser in the form of 2-minute bursts of 75 decibels of white noise (WN) might be used to facilitate short- and long-term re- call for hyperactive boys. An attempt was made to determine whether the stimulus was most effective if it was presented (a) before acquisi- tion, (b) before the recall tests, or (c) both before acquisition and before the recall tests. Hyperactivity was operationally defined as a score of eight or more on the Conners' Teacher's Questionnaire. The subjects for the study were 36 boys who had received the criterion score or more on the Ques- tionnaire which had been completed by the regular classroom teacher of each child. The boys were between the ages of 8.50 and 12.75 years. Ten hypotheses were tested using two types of tasks. A silently read paragraphs task consistently preceded a tape-recorded paragraphs task. Each task was followed by the administration of two halves of a test. The first half of the test for each task was given at a 2- minute interval and the second half of the test for each task was given at a 24-hour interval.

    AHRQ Healthcare Horizon Scanning System – Status Update Horizon Scanning Status Update: January 2014 Prepared for: Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality U.S. Department of Health and Human Services 540 Gaither Road Rockville, MD 20850 www.ahrq.gov Contract No. HHSA290201000006C Prepared by: ECRI Institute 5200 Butler Pike Plymouth Meeting, PA 19462 January 2014 Statement of Funding and Purpose This report incorporates data collected during implementation of the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) Healthcare Horizon Scanning System by ECRI Institute under contract to AHRQ, Rockville, MD (Contract No. HHSA290201000006C). The findings and conclusions in this document are those of the authors, who are responsible for its content, and do not necessarily represent the views of AHRQ. No statement in this report should be construed as an official position of AHRQ or of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. A novel intervention may not appear in this report simply because the System has not yet detected it. The list of novel interventions in the Horizon Scanning Status Update Report will change over time as new information is collected. This should not be construed as either endorsements or rejections of specific interventions. As topics are entered into the System, individual target technology reports are developed for those that appear to be closer to diffusion into practice in the United States. A representative from AHRQ served as a Contracting Officer’s Technical Representative and provided input during the implementation of the horizon scanning system. AHRQ did not directly participate in the horizon scanning, assessing the leads or topics, or provide opinions regarding potential impact of interventions.
