Abstract:
ABSTRACT Delusional parasitosis (DP), also known as Ekbom syndrome, is a rare, monosymptomatic psychosis where the person has an unshakable belief (i.e., delusion) of being infested with parasites. A detailed activity of the offending parasite like crawling, biting, burrowing is often given by the patients. It is commonly observed among patients over the age of 50. International Classification of Diseases (ICD) 10th revision defines this disorder as “delusional disorder.” We are presenting a case report of a patient suffering from DP, who was successfully treated on atypical antipsychotic olan

Abstract:
Parasitic delirium is a manifestation that can occur in different psychopathological presentations or fit into different somatic pictures. Ekbom syndrome; primary form of parasitic delirium, is an exceptional and non-specific psychiatric disorder that classically interests women of advanced ages and without intellectual deterioration, dermatological manifestations are usually highlighted in search of “evidence in the skin”. The diagnosis is generally made with a delay of psychiatric consultation of one year on average, which sometimes allows the delirium to retreat and specialized care is thus

Abstract:
Background: Described in 1938, Ekbom's syndrome is a disorder in most cases having a psychiatric origin. In addition to being frequent in psychiatry consultations, it I can be presented in dermatology essentially and other medical fields as well (such as gastroenterology). Case Report: We report the case of a patient who, after a suspected infestation, presented with Ekbom syndrome but the lack of knowledge of the disorder led to a three-year delay in diagnosis and treatment. Conclusion: Despite the understanding of this disorder is an integral part of the training of any psychiatrist, it is n

Abstract:
Restless legs syndrome (RLS)/Willis–Ekbom disease (WED), is a common neurological disorder characterized by uncomfortable and unpleasant sensations in the legs, with an urge to move. The general population prevalence has been estimated at approximately 5%. In 1995, the International RLS/WED Study Group established four clinical criteria for RLS/WED diagnosis, and in 2012 introduced a fifth (that symptoms are not due to another medical or behavioral condition) to improve differential diagnosis. Periodic leg movements causing sleep fragmentation may be observed in almost 80% of RLS/WED patients.

Abstract:
Restless legs syndrome (RLS), also known as Willis Ekbom disease (WED), is a sensory disorder with a circadian component. An irresistible urge to move the legs disrupts sleep onset and maintenance. Periodic limb movements in sleep, semirhythmic in nature, often overlap with RLS, though periodic limb movement disorder can be diagnosed in the absence of RLS’s distinctive sensory symptoms. Disruptions in dopaminergic pathways, iron metabolism, and the opioid system have all been implicated in pathogenesis, and there is a strong genetic component. RLS is common, affecting 5% to 10% of adults. Its

This chapter highlights the development of normal sleep from infancy to childhood. It illustrates the ways in which this development impacts common sleep disorders such as sleep disordered breathing, insomnia, restless legs syndrome (Willis–Ekbom disease), narcolepsy, parasomnias, and circadian rhythm abnormalities. The considerations needed for diagnosis of these disorders in children are discussed, including the key features of a pediatric sleep history. The chapter also focuses on sleep in special populations, including trisomy 21 (Down syndrome), autism spectrum disorder, Angelman syndrome

Abstract:
Significant and progressive sleep alterations occur in elderly people, including both circadian and ultradian modifications of sleep. Among these, reduced melatonin and a diminished role of environmental zeitgebers impair sleep rhythmicity, with a tendency toward polyphasic sleep and excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS). The loss of slow-wave sleep (SWS) and EDS are significant, along with behavioral and cognitive alterations in patients with dementia. Sleep disordered breathing (SDB) and restless legs syndrome (RLS)/Willis–Ekbom disease may further aggravate the burden of insomnia and sleep fra

Introdução: A doença de Willis-Ekbom, também conhecida como síndrome das pernas inquietas (SPI), é um distúrbio do movimento caracterizado por uma sensação desagradável nas pernas, que inclui câimbra, formigamento, rigidez muscular e inquietação. Esses sintomas são comumente desencadeados durante o repouso e melhoram com o movimento. A SPI primária é frequente e possui uma forte ligação com fatores genéticos. Já a SPI secundária está associada a doenças ou alterações fisiológicas, como deficiência de ferro, uremia, polineuropatia, artrite reumatoide e, principalmente, a gravidez. A incidência
