INTRODUCTION: Tourette's Syndrome (TS) is a neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by motor and / or vocal tics for more than 12 months. TS affects about 0.8% of pediatric patients and is associated with great functional impairment and psychological distress. The present study aims to list and compare the effectiveness of therapies used in children and young people with TS. METHODS: PubMed / MEDLINE, Cochrane Library, ScienceDirect, SciELO and Lilacs were used from September 2020 to April 2021 to search for randomized clinical trials with pharmacological, behavioral, physical or alternative interventions for tics in children and young people with ST. RESULTS: 13 clinical trials were included, of which six pharmacological, six behavioral and one of other conformation. The global score on the Yale Global Tic Severity Scale showed evidence in favor of Habit Reversal Training (HRT) and Comprehensive Behavioral Intervention for Tics (CBIT). Evidence from two studies suggests that antipsychotic medications improve tic scores. Evidence from other interventions has shown no conclusive benefit. CONCLUSIONS: The present study identified benefits with the use of antipsychotics. The study also found that HRT and CBIT showed improvement in reducing the severity of tics, in addition to not having any adverse effects. These therapies showed significant clinical improvement, but there is no comparison between the use of these isolated approaches in relation to their use associated with medications. In view of the different forms of therapy, further studies are needed to identify the effectiveness and the profile of adverse effects of these interventions.
INTRODUÇÃO: A Síndrome de Tourette (ST) é um distúrbio do neurodesenvolvimento caracterizado por tiques motores e/ou vocais por mais de 12 meses. A ST afeta cerca de 0,8% dos pacientes pediátricos e associa-se a grande comprometimento funcional e sofrimento psíquico. O presente estudo tem como objetivo listar e comparar a eficácia das terapias utilizadas em crianças e jovens com ST. MÉTODOS: PubMed/MEDLINE, Cochrane Library, ScienceDirect, SciELO e Lilacs foram usados desde setembro de 2020 até abril de 2021 para a busca de ensaios clínicos randomizados com intervenções farmacológicas, comportamentais, físicas ou alternativas para tiques em crianças e jovens com ST. RESULTADOS: 13 ensaios clínicos foram incluídos, dos quais seis farmacológicos, seis comportamentais e um de outra conformação. A pontuação global na Yale Global Tic Severity Scale, apresentou evidências a favor do Treinamento de Reversão de Hábito (TRH) e Intervenção Comportamental Abrangente para Tiques (ICAT). As evidências de dois estudos sugerem que medicamentos antipsicóticos melhoram os escores de tiques. Evidências de outras intervenções não mostraram nenhum benefício conclusivo. CONCLUSÕES: O presente estudo identificou benefícios com o uso do antipsicóticos. O estudo também identificou que a TRH e a ICAT apresentaram melhora na redução da gravidade dos tiques, além de não apresentarem efeitos adversos. Essas terapias mostraram importante melhora clínica, mas não há comparação entre o uso dessas abordagens isoladas em relação ao seu uso associado com medicamentos. Diante das diferentes formas de terapia, mais estudos são necessários para identificar a eficácia e o perfil de efeitos adversos dessas intervenções.

ABSTRACT BACKGROUND: The therapeutic effects of cannabinoid compounds have been the center of many investigations. This study provides a synthesis on all Cochrane systematic reviews (SRs) that assessed the use of cannabinoids as a therapeutic approach. DESIGN AND SETTING: Review of SRs, conducted in the Discipline of Evidence-Based Medicine, Escola Paulista de Medicina (EPM), Universidade Federal de São Paulo (UNIFESP). METHODS: A broad search was conducted in the Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews to retrieve any Cochrane SRs that assessed the efficacy and safety of cannabinoids as a therapeutic approach. The results and key characteristics of all reviews included were summarized and discussed. RESULTS: Eight SRs were included. They assessed the use of cannabinoids for the following types of conditions: neurological (two SRs), psychiatric (two SRs), rheumatological (one SR), infectious (one SR) and oncological (two SRs). There was moderate-quality evidence showing that the use of cannabinoids reduced nausea and vomiting among adults, compared with placebo. Additionally, there was moderate-quality evidence showing that there was no difference between cannabinoids and prochlorperazine regarding the number of participants who reported vomiting, in this same population. CONCLUSIONS: This review identified eight Cochrane systematic reviews that provided evidence of unknown to moderate quality regarding the use of cannabinoids as a therapeutic intervention. Further studies are still imperative for solid conclusions to be reached regarding practical recommendations.

A Síndrome de Gilles de la Tourette (SGT), caracterizada pela presença de tiques motores e vocais, apresenta elevada associação com transtorno obsessivo-compulsivo (TOC) e transtorno de déficit de atenção com hiperatividade (TDAH). Essas condições frequentemente causam mais prejuízo aos pacientes do que os tiques, propriamente. Relata-se o caso clínico de um paciente com SGT e comorbidade com TDAH e TOC. O tratamento com inibidor seletivo de recaptura de serotonina (ISRS) e metilfenidato promoveu melhora significativa dos sintomas de TDAH, sintomas compulsivos e tiques.
Tourette Syndrome (TS), characterized by motor and vocal tics, is often associated with obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD) and attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). These associated conditions frequently cause more impairment in patients than tics themselves. We report the case of TS with comorbid ADHD and OCD. Treatment with selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor and methylphenidate, led to significantly improvement of ADHD symptoms, compulsive symptoms and tics.

Background: Tourette syndrome is a neuropsychiatric disorder characterized by motor and vocal tics, attentional deficit, poor control of impulses and obsessive compulsive disorder. Pharmacological treatment is often disappointing due to partial response and frequent poor tolerance to neuroleptic drugs which are otherwise the most effective therapy so far. Aim: To report a lasting improvement obtained with a new drug, aripiprazole that acts modulating both dopaminergic and serotoninergic neurotransmission. Material and methods: Ten patients refractory to their usual therapy, aged 10 to 35 years, were switched to aripiprazole in an open trial. Results: Nine of the 10 patients showed a significant response assessed by the Yale severity tics rating scale and the clinical global impression scale (p <0.01). No relevant adverse effects were observed. Conclusions: Aripiprazole may be a good pharmacological option for patients with Tourette syndrome.

Background: Tourette's syndrome is a childhood-onset hereditary neurobehavioural disorder believed to occur without geographical restrictions. Although there have been reports of this disorder worldwide just a few are from Latin America. Aim: To report a preliminary experience with a series of 70 patients and to review recent advances in this disorder. Patients and Method: We reviewed patients seen in pediatric and adult neurological clinics in Santiago, Chile, all of whom fulfilled clinical diagnostic criteria for Tourette Syndrome. Results: Seventy patients were studied, 54 males (77.1 percent) and 16 females (22.8 percent), their mean age at first evaluation was 13.6 years (range 2-46). The mean age of onset of symptoms was 6.4 (range 2-20), the mean time of follow-up was 3 years. Fifty-eight patients showed simple motor tics (blinking, facial grimacing, shoulder shrugging), whereas dystonic tics like head jerking were seen in 38 patients, torticollis in 6 and oculogyric movements in 2. Complex motor tics like jumping, antics, trunk bending and head shaking were present in 16 subjects. Vocal tics were predominantly of the simple type: sniffing, throat clearing, blowing, and whistling. Complex vocal tics were seen in 12 patients, five cases showed palilalia, 3 echolalia and only six displayed coprolalia (8.5 percent). Tics were of mild to moderate severity in most patients. Obsessive-compulsive disorder was observed in 22.8 percent and attention deficit and hyperactivity disorder were present in 35.7 percent. Forty-five patients (64.2 percent) had a first degree relative with tics, nine patients (12.8 percent) had a family history of obsessive-compulsive disorder. The current evidence involving desinhibition of cortico-striatum-thalamic-cortical neuronal circuits in the pathogenesis of this disorder is analyzed. Conclusion: Our report supports the recognized clinical homogeneity and genetical basis of TouretteÕs syndrome regardless of geographical region and ethnic origin

A síndrome de Gilles de la Tourette (SGT) é um distúrbio de caráter flutuante e crônico, caracterizado por tiques motores e vocais involuntários. A SGT tem sido subdiagnosticada devido à ênfase em uma etiologia exclusivamente psicológica, bem como a critérios imprecisos. O haloperidol é seu tratamento habitual desde aproximadamente 1961. O pimozide vem sendo apontado como mais efetivo na SGT, devido a uma quantidade menor de efeitos sedativos e extrapiramidais, e assim proporcionando maior aderência ao tratamento. Apresentamos dois casos de SGT onde säo discutidos aspectos terapêuticos

El síndrome de La Tourette es un transtorno caracterizado por la presencia de movimiento involuntarios (tics motores) y vocalizaciones (tics vocales). Frecuentemente asociado a transtorno obsesivo compulsivo y déficit atencional. Presenta una distribución mundial pero en nuestro medio existen escasas comunicaciones. Se comunican los avances en la fisiopatología y tratamiento de este transtorno y se discute la evidencia actual que plantea la presencia de desinhibición de los circuitos neuronales córticos-subcorticales en la fisiopatología de este cuadro. El Síndrome de la Tourette constituye un verdadero paradigma para un mejor entendimiento de la estrecha relación existente entre la actividad cognitivo-emocional y la función motora. Este cuadro es bastante común y no frecuente reconocido como tal en nuestro medio

Os autores apresentam dados referentes ao diagnóstico, tratamento e evoluçäo de um caso de um adolescente seguido há 8 anos e periodicamente reavaliado. Por ocasiäo do primeiro atendimento aos 10 anos de idade apresentava crises de agressividade, ecolalia, cropolalia, tiques e gritos compulsivos. Foi nessa ocasiäo submetido a avaliaçäo psiquiátrica, neurológica e psicométrica e tratado com psicofármacos. Os dados colhidos durante a evoluçäo desse caso säo reunidos neste trabalho e comparados com resultados de outros autores. Discutimos os critérios diagnósticos com base nas reavaliaçöes desacando-se a evoluçäo dos sintomas e sinais. Na situaçäo atual o caso parece-nos estar evoluindo para uma sintomatologia mais psicótica. O curso do tratamento mostrou-se flutuante e progressivo, caracterizando períodos de remissäo e exarcebaçäo, contudo, o paciente nunca se tornou inteiramente assintomático. O tratamento psicofarmacológico com diferentes tipos de drogas näo se mostrou efetivo. Pareceu-nos oportuno o relato da evoluçäo desse caso, na medida em que ele evidenciou sintomas e sinais ligados a fatores orgânico=s e psicogênicos de interesse neuro-psiquiátrico e psicológico no estudo dessa síndrome de baixa incidência. A Síndrome de Gilles de la Tourrette tem sido motivo de estudo desde 1810, quando Georges Gilles de la Tourrette descreveu pela primeira vez essa síndrome como sendo uma falsa coréia...

A Síndrome de Gilles de la Tourette (SGT) é uma interessante desordem do movimento, a qual tem sido pouco compreendida e pouco diagnosticada pelos clínicos. Os autores descrevem a SGT, enfatizando sua história, etiologia, epidemiologia, diagnóstico diferencial e aspectos clínicos e terapêuticos. A etiologia relacionada ao sistema dopaminérgico tem como base a açäo das drogas bloqueadoras de receptores dopaminérgicos, que säo eficazes no tratamento, e de seus agonistas que exacerbam os sintomas. A relaçäo da SGT com a Discinesia Tardia está baseada nestes achados e no aparecimento de SGT em pacientes com uso crônico de neurolépticos. O tratamento com haloperidol, sendo o pimozide uma segunda opçäo, é aconselhado
