Cognitive dysfunction and tardive dyskinesia.
From a prospective study of tardive dyskinesia (TD), psychiatric patients with neuroleptically-induced "persistent" TD were contrasted with controls on a neuropsychological measure of abstracting ability. A significant association is demonstrated between impaired cognitive performance and TD, even when the neuropsychological measure was obtained in advance of TD onset.
