متن کاملMycoplasma-induced minimally conscious state
Mycoplasma pneumoniae (M. pneumoniae) frequently causes community-acquired respiratory tract infection and often presents as atypical pneumonia. Following airborne infection and a long incubation period, affected patients mostly suffer from mild or even asymptomatic and self-limiting disease. In particular in school-aged children, M. pneumoniae is associated with a wide range of extrapulmonary ...
متن کاملEmotion processing in the minimally conscious state.
As a newly described condition distinct from coma or the vegetative state, minimally conscious state (MCS) is characterised by a threshold level of consciousness, and diagnostic criteria have recently been proposed. 1 In MCS, cognitively mediated behaviour occurs inconsistently, but is reproducible or sustained enough to be differentiated from reflexive behaviour. It is clinically essential to ...
متن کاملThe Minimally Conscious State: Neuroimaging and Regeneration*
The minimally conscious state (MCS) is a clinical manifestation of severe brain injury. While there are no evidence-based criteria, diagnostic guidelines were reached in a series of consensus development workshops [1]. The differential diagnosis of the minimally conscious state is important and includes the vegetative state (transient, persistent and permanent), coma and the locked-in syndrome ...
متن کاملCerebral processing in the minimally conscious state.
We studied a patient in a minimally conscious state using PET and cognitive evoked potentials. Cerebral metabolism was below half of normal values. Auditory stimuli with emotional valence (infant cries and the patient's own name) induced a much more widespread activation than did meaningless noise; the activation pattern was comparable with that previously obtained in controls. Cognitive potent...
