Possible Central Nervous System Infection by SARS Coronavirus
On day 22 of illness, generalized tonic-clonic convulsion developed in a 32-year-old woman with severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS). Cerebrospinal fluid tested positive for SARS coronavirus (SARS-CoV) by reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction. SARS-CoV may have caused an infection in the central nervous system in this patient.
متن کاملCentral nervous system infection.
This article outlines a practical imaging approach to CNS infection and reviews 5 basic imaging patterns commonly seen: (1) extra-axial lesion, (2) ring-enhancing lesion, (3) temporal lobe lesion, (4) basal ganglia lesion, and (5) white matter abnormality. Opportunistic infections in the setting of HIV are also discussed within the context of these 5 basic imaging patterns. Characteristic imagi...
متن کاملADENOSINE IN THE CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM
Besides being a metabolite of nucleotides like ATP, adenosine is a mediator of neuronal function in the central nervous system. Its actions are mediated by at least three extracellular receptors. In this review different aspects of adenosine such as biosynthesis, release, inactivation and its receptors are discussed. It also covers pre- and postsynaptic effects as well as postreceptor mecha...
متن کاملP151: The Effects of Boswellia Serrate on Central Nervous System
In the process of neuronal inflammation, an increased in inflammatory cytokines (IL-1β, IL-6 and TNF-α) from immune cells (leukocytes and macrophages), brain cells (microglia, astrocytes and neurons) and in hippocampus, amygdala occurs. Raise the level of cytokines result in reduced in production of molecules that are related to plasticity, especially BDNF, IGF-1 and VEGF. Microglia ...
متن کاملCentral nervous system complications of HIV infection.
Issues relevant to the nervous system garnered substantial attention at the 18th Conference on Retroviruses and Opportunistic Infections. Several topics emerged as areas of importance both for informing current understanding of HIV-related neurologic disorders and their treatment, and for spurring future investigations. Measurable biomarkers of HIV-associated neurocognitive disorder (HAND) were...
