Clinical associations and time of onset of cerebral white matter damage in very preterm babies.
Neuropathological examinations were carried out at necropsy on 83 very pre-term babies who died during their first hospital admission. Forty seven (57%) babies had evidence of cerebral damage-39 with ischaemic white matter damage. The time of onset of ischaemic lesions was thought to be prenatal in 12 cases (31%) and postnatal in a further 12 (31%). The exact timing of damage could not be deter...
متن کاملClinical and Pathological Features of Iraqi Patients with Prostate Cancer
Background: The clinical pathological features were detected by measuring the prostatic acid phosphatase (PAP) activity according to the stages and grades of prostate cancer. We also explored the relationship between the disease and age with family history among the patients. Methods: Data were collected from direct interview and from the patient’s records. Blood samples that collected before ...
متن کاملPathological Assessment of Brain White Matter in Relapsing-Remitting MS Patients using Quantitative Magnetization Transfer Imaging
Introduction: Multiple sclerosis (MS) is characterized by lesions in the white matter (WM) of the central nervous system. Magnetic resonance imaging is the most specific and sensitive method for diagnosis of multiple sclerosis. However, the ability of conventional MRI to show histopathologic heterogeneity of MS lesions is insufficient. Quantitative magnetization transfer imaging (qMTI) is a rel...
متن کاملLate preterm babies and the risk of neurological damage.
Late preterm infants (born between 34+0 and 36+6 weeks gestation) account for the recent striking increase in premature birth and they carry a higher vulnerability to suffer brain insults compared to term infants. These babies can develop any kind of known brain lesions including those affecting the most premature babies (i.e.an intraventricular haemorrhage) and lesions affecting more typically...
متن کاملWhite Matter Injury of Prematurity: Its Mechanisms and Clinical Features
A developing central nervous system is vulnerable to various insults such as infection and ischemia. While increased understanding of the dynamic nature of brain development allows a deeper insight into the pathophysiology of perinatal brain injury, the precise nature of specific fetal and neonatal brain injuries and their short- and long-term clinical consequences need special attention and fu...
