Rates of spontaneous and drug-induced repetitive jaw movements (RJM) in rats vary widely. Low and high RJM responders were isolated and genetically selected. At each generation mean RJM responses (spontaneous or SKF 38393-induced) of the two types of rats were found to differ significantly, whereas neither apomorphine-induced stereotypic responses nor D1 and D2 receptor numbers and affinities differed. A significant increase in cAMP production was evident in SKF 38393-stimulated striatal homogenates of high RJM responders as compared with low responders. Animals subjected to 8-months exposure to fluphenazine exhibited RJM that were about twice as great as that of controls, 2 months after the last treatment, with a prevalence of about 75%. Similarities between RJM observed in rats and neuroleptic-induced tardive dyskinesia suggest that the two are strongly related.

Background: Despite efforts to visualize all the movements of tongue and oropharynx in individuals with focal movement disorders (specifically tardive dyskinesia (TD)), clinicians can miss the complete picture and additional tools may be required to reach an accurate diagnosis.
Cases: We present three cases with TD where ultrasound assisted in diagnoses. These individuals had difficulty swallowing and abnormal sensations in the tongue, which remained undiagnosed until we performed ultrasound of oropharynx which allowed for characterization of these movements.
