Introduction:Amphetamines are central nervous system (CNS) stimulant substances and amphetamine abuse is considered a growing problem in our country. Previous studies revealed destructive effects of amphetamines on metabolism, perfusion and structure of brain. The aim of current study was evaluating regional cerebral blood flow (rCBF) disturbances in methamphetamine (MA) abuser...
متن کاملRegional cerebral blood flow in Alzheimer's disease.
Neural networks have been successfully applied to brain perfusion images to classify patients with Alzheimer's disease from normal or other patient populations. Given the recognition that Alzheimer's disease constitutes a heterogeneous disorder, the identification of subgroups sharing common functional brain deficits would constitute a further improvement in the utility of such methods. Therefo...
متن کاملSex differences in regional cerebral blood flow.
Regional cerebral blood flow was measured by the 133-xenon inhalation method during resting in 38 healthy men and 38 healthy women matched pairwise for age in the range 18-72 years. The results showed 11% higher global flow level in the women in all ages. A similar and significant regression of flow by age was seen for both sexes. The regional flow distribution also showed some sex-related diff...
متن کاملAbnormal regional cerebral blood flow in cognitively normal elderly subjects with hypertension.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to examine regional cerebral blood flow (rCBF) in normal cognitive-performing subjects with hypertension (HTN) using continuous arterial spin-labeled MRI. The most common explanation for the effect of blood pressure on cognition is that HTN increases the risk of cerebrovascular disease, and it may increase the risk for Alzheimer disease possi...
