Summary
The presence and severity of tardive dyskinesia were determined in 66 patients with
chronic psychiatric disorders treated with chlorpromazine. The patients were classified
according to the presence of antinuclear antibodies, the lupus anticoagulant, and
the HLA antigen Bw44. The severity of orofacial dyskinesia was estimated using the
Rockland Research Institute Scale. Patients with autoantibodies and the Bw44 antigen
had higher tardive dyskinesia scores than those with AAB without the Bw44 antigen
and also patients without autoantibodies regardless of their HLA phenotype (P < 0.01). These studies suggest that the presence of autoantibodies in association
with the HLA Bw44 antigen is related to, and can be a predictor of, neurological complications
of long-term chlorpromazine therapy.
