  • Title: Tardive dyskinesia in schizophrenic patients: correlation with negative symptoms.
    Author: Bartzokis G, Hill MA, Altshuler L, Cummings JL, Wirshing W, May PR.
    Journal: Psychiatry Res; 1989 May; 28(2):145-51. PubMed ID: 2568650.
    Abstract:
    The relationship between severity of tardive dyskinesia (TD) and the prominence of negative symptoms was assessed in 25 right-handed, medicated schizophrenic patients. TD was quantified using ultrasound detectors and frequency measurement techniques as well as with observer rating scales. Electromechanical studies revealed a systematic relationship between TD severity and negative symptoms; TD was more severe in patients with fewer negative symptoms. The correlation was small in magnitude.
