I. Pathogenesis (2) Local Factors in the Pathogenesis of Edema

Knee osteoarthritis prevalence, risk factors, pathogenesis and features: Part I

Osteoarthritis (OA) a common disease of aged population and one of the leading causes of disability. Incidence of knee OA is rising by increasing average age of general population. Age, weight, trauma to joint due to repetiting movements in particular squatting and kneeling are common risk factors of knee OA. Several factors including cytokines, leptin, and mechanical forces are pathogenic fact...

1880 Pathogenesis of Edema in Constrictive Pericarditis

Background. The pathogenesis of sodium and water accumulation in chronic constrictive pericarditis is not well understood and may differ from that in patients with chronic congestive heart failure due to myocardial disease. This study was undertaken to investigate some of the mechanisms. Methods and Results. Using standard techniques, the hemodynamics, water and electrolyte spaces, renal functi...

Pathogenesis of Epilepsy: Challenges in Animal Models

  Epilepsy is one of the most common chronic disorders affecting individuals of all ages. A greater understanding of pathogenesis in epilepsy will likely provide the basis fundamental for development of new antiepileptic therapies that aim to prevent the epileptogenesis process or modify the progression of epilepsy in addition to treatment of epilepsy symptomatically. Therefore, severa...
