Altered Calcium Metabolism
A survey of 105 epileptic children aged 10-16 years at a residential school who were taking anticonvulsant drugs showed reduced serum calcium levels in 30% and a raised serum alkaline phosphatase in 24%. Urinary D-glucaric acid excretion, a quantitative index of hepatic enzyme induction, was raised in 94% of the children, and statistical analysis showed a significant inverse correlation with th...

متن کاملAltered calcium metabolism in aging CA1 hippocampal pyramidal neurons.
Altered neuronal calcium homeostasis is widely hypothesized to underlie cognitive deficits in normal aging subjects, but the mechanisms that underlie this change are unknown, possibly due to a paucity of direct measurements from aging neurons. Using CCD and two-photon calcium imaging techniques on CA1 pyramidal neurons from young and aged rats, we show that calcium influx across the plasma memb...
متن کاملStudy of calcium metabolism in Beta-Talassemia major patients
disturbances in calcium metabolism and both impairment are some of the known complications observed in beta thalassemia major patients.although iron deposition has been recognized to be the main factor for organ dysfunction in these patients,the relatively low prevalence of hypoparathyroidism has led to giving more emphasis to Ca metabolism disturbance among others.availability of more patients...
متن کاملFolic acid replacement in folate-deficient children on anticonvulsants.
309 infection. Since Case 18 failed to respond adequately to either arginine alone or arginine with oestrogen priming, an insulin response test was performed, and she also failed to respond to this. Discussion The majority of subjects with chromosomal anomalies also have a disorder of growth. Tall stature in males with multiple X chromosome disorders, and short stature in subjects with the XO s...
