Effect of dieldrin toxicity on acetate and palmitate metabolism in rat liver.

The effect of a single oral dose of dieldrin (30 mg/kg body weight) on lipid metabolism in rats was studied. Liver lipids content increased and this increase was mainly in the triglyceride fraction. The incorporation of acetate-14C into fatty acids was decreased indicating an inhibition of lipogenesis. Fatty acid oxidation was increased. Palmitate-14C incorporation into the triglyceride fraction was enhanced pointing to an overall increased utilization of fatty acids.

Primidone-induced catatonic schizophrenia.

The authors report the case of a severely retarded, 19-year-old female (treated with primidone 250 mg tid since age 12) who was admitted with visual and auditory hallucinations. After four days of continuing hallucinations, she went into classic catatonic schizophrenia. Upon examination, her primidone serum level was found to be well above the normal therapeutic range. The primidone dosage was decreased, and symptoms subsided as serum levels returned to normal.
