Managerial accounting The UPV was one of the first Spanish universities to be aware of the necessity of providing effective tools to researchers in order to place their research results into society. In response to this necessity, the UPV set up the INNOVA programme whose main goal is to facilitate the transfer of knowledge generated within the university towards the productive sector, and encourage the adoption of strategies aimed at the strengthening of the relationship between the R&D structures and their customers.

111 What is the maintenance dose of phenytoin in seizures arising as a complication of chronic renal failure?

112 I know that the loading dose of phenytoin in status epilepticus is 20 mg/kg with an upper limit of 1000 mg but if the same situation arose as a complication of chronic renal failure (on regular dialysis), should this dose remain the same or be reduced? If reduced, what should the dose be?

113 1. What is the most effective antiepileptic for a patient with simple partial motor status epilepticus who is not responding to a loading dose of phenytoin? 2. How long does phenytoin, given in a loading dose, take to work?

114 Is valproate effective if given rectally in status epilepticus and, if so, what dose is recommended?

115 In simple partial motor status epilepticus, if the patient does not respond to diazepam and phenytoin, is it justifiable to proceed to anaesthetic medication?

116 What is the recommended upper limit dose of lamotrigine when combined with both carbamazepine and valproate?

117 Is a valproate-lamotrigine combination more effective than carbamazepine on its own against partial seizures?

118 Why is the incidence of parkinsonism less common in smokers?

119 Is it recommended to start the treatment of parkinsonism with dopamine agonists alone in elderly (over 60 years old) patients, and to delay using L-dopa until the disease has progressed much further? Is there a rationale for this protocol in younger patients?

120 Does amantadine increase the endogenous release of dopamine, thus aiding early treatment of parkinsonism?
