The syndrome is pathophysiologically associated with cortical dysfunction in sensory brain areas. When AIWS symptoms occur, possible underlying neurological conditions should be investigated as they may be amenable to treatment. From a psychiatric perspective, distinguishing it from disorders within the psychotic spectrum poses a challenge.\u0000\u0000 \u0000\u0000This article aims to clearly describe the phenomenology and definition of AIWS and to explore whether a strict differential diagnosis with psychotic experiences is possible.\u0000\u0000 \u0000\u0000To the best of the authors’ knowledge, psychiatric disorders have to this date only been associated with AIWS in adults. A case of a 14-year-old girl with depression and subclinical psychotic symptoms with an unclear origin of AIWS is presented. Presumably, there was a looping effect and the subclinical psychotic symptoms were mistakenly identified as AIWS symptoms.\u0000\u0000 \u0000\u0000Due to substantial differences in prognosis and treatment, the authors want to emphasize the importance of differentiating AIWS from a (subclinical) psychotic syndrome.

Botulinum toxin (BTX) is commonly known as an effective and safe therapy for focal spasticity, but needs frequent repetition with risk of tolerance. Extracorporeal Shock Wave Therapy (ESWT) is a treatment already known for its positive temporary effect on focal spasticity in monotherapy. This literature review wishes to evaluate the potential of ESWT as an adjuvant therapy to Botulinum toxin based on the hypothesis that it may prolong and enhance the therapeutic effect since ESWT influences the rheological properties of the spastic muscle, where Botulinum toxin rather affects the neural mechanisms of spasticity.\u0000\u0000 \u0000\u0000Methods: review of literature.\u0000\u0000 \u0000\u0000Results: 6 studies were found, with a moderate methodological quality and strongly varying protocol for the use of Botulinum toxin and ESWT, reporting of outcome variables and follow-up. Outcome variables mainly consisted of technical investigations and measurements on the level of bodily structure and functions (in accordance with the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF)). Side effects were described only briefly. Short term effects were mostly positive. Follow-up longer than 3 months remained unreported.\u0000\u0000 \u0000\u0000Conclusion: ESWT may be an adjuvant therapy when combined with Botulinum toxin, at least in the short term. Further research is necessary, preferably set up as randomised, double-blind controlled trials with a clear and uniform protocol concerning ESWT and Botulinum toxin, with a longer lasting follow-up. Reporting on side effects and usage of quality assessments that fit the ICF framework, as well as correct usage of biostatistics herein are required.","PeriodicalId":23124,"journal":{"name":"Tijdschrift Voor Geneeskunde","volume":" 24","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-06-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141374131","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
