Organic brain dysfunction and child psychiatric disorder.
The total population of 11,865 children of compulsory school age resident on the Isle of Wight was studied to determine the prevalence of epilepsy, cerebral palsy, and other neurological disorders. With the use of reliable methods, children selected from screening of the total population were individually studied by means of parental interviews and questionaries, neurological examination and ps...
متن کاملBrain metabolic alterations in medication-free patients with bipolar disorder.
BACKGROUND Bipolar disorder (BD) has substantial morbidity and incompletely understood neurobiological underpinnings. OBJECTIVE To investigate brain chemistry in medication-free individuals with BD. DESIGN Two-dimensional proton echo-planar spectroscopic imaging (PEPSI) (32 x 32, 1-cm(3) voxel matrix) acquired axially through the cingulate gyrus was used to quantify regional brain chemistry...
متن کاملMetabolic Dysfunction Underlying Autism Spectrum Disorder and Potential Treatment Approaches
Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is characterized by deficits in sociability and communication, and increased repetitive and/or restrictive behaviors. While the etio-pathogenesis of ASD is unknown, clinical manifestations are diverse and many possible genetic and environmental factors have been implicated. As such, it has been a great challenge to identify key neurobiological mechanisms and to de...
متن کاملAdipokines, metabolic dysfunction and illness course in bipolar disorder.
Replicated evidence indicates that individuals with BD are differentially affected by metabolic comorbidities and that its occurrence is a critical mediator and/or moderator of BD outcomes. This study aimed to explore the role of adipokines on bipolar disorder (BD) course and its relationship with metabolic comorbidities (i.e. type 2 diabetes mellitus, obesity). We measured plasma levels of adi...
متن کاملBiglycan
Research over the past few years has provided fascinating results indicating that biglycan, besides being a ubiquitous structural component of the extracellular matrix (ECM), may act as a signaling molecule. Proteolytically released from the ECM, biglycan acts as a danger signal signifying tissue stress or injury. As a ligand of innate immunity receptors and activator of the inflammasome, bigly...
