Neurological Malignant Syndrome Project Proposal
'''

Introduction

The current page, Neurological Malignant Syndrome, discusses Neuroleptic Malignant Syndrome (NMS), which is the proper name for Neurological Malignant Syndrome. There is currently a page for NMS, however, it is lacking in citations. There are also some issues that have arisen on the discussion page that our group can hopefully clear up. The present article has a decent layout, however the content of the article can be improved greatly.

Goals

The major points of the article that will be addressed will be the introduction, the treatment, the epidemiology, and the history of the disorder.

Sources

Some tentative articles that will be cited include:

1.	Addonizio G, Susman VL, Roth SD: Neuroleptic malignant syndrome: review and analysis of 115 cases. Biol Psychiatry 1987; 22:1004–1020

2.	Buckley PF and Hutchinson M: Neuroleptic Malignant Syndrome. ''J. Neurol. Neurosurg. Psychiatry'' 1995; 58; 271-273

3.	 Caplan JP and Stern TA: Mnemonics in a nutshell:32 aids to psychiatric diagnosis. Current Psychiatry 2008; 7(10):27-33.

Group Workload

The proposed workload for this project will be split up evenly and specifics will be decided upon as the projects move forward and the goals become clearer.
