[Neurological dysfunction induced by bilirrubin].
INTRODUCTION "Kernicterus" is a term currently used to describe bilirrubin induced brain injury in the neuro-pathological studies. This is a confusing term and nowadays we prefer bilirrubin encephalopathy or bilirrubin induced neurological dysfunction. The clinical signs vary and it is clearly decreasing in prevalence in developed countries. MATERIAL AND METHODS We review a series of 7 patien...
متن کاملAge-dependent susceptibility to manganese-induced neurological dysfunction.
Chronic exposure to manganese (Mn) produces a spectrum of cognitive and behavioral deficits associated with a neurodegenerative disorder resembling Parkinson's disease. The effects of high-dose exposure to Mn in occupational cohorts and in adult rodent models of the disease are well described but much less is known about the behavioral and neurochemical effects of Mn in the developing brain. We...
متن کاملMitochondrial Dysfunction & Neurological Disorders
Most of the living organisms derive their energy requirements from ingested food material through controlled metabolic reactions. Prokaryotes like bacteria obtain the ATP, the energy subunit from series of enzymatic reactions which occur in the cytosol [1]. In contrast to prokaryotes, eukaryotes have evolved a highly specialized double membrane organelles i.e., mitochondria encompassing electro...
متن کاملDermatitis herpetiformis and neurological dysfunction.
Dermatitis herpetiformis and coeliac disease are gluten sensitive diseases, which have common immunopathological and genetic mechanisms. Neuropsychiatric complications have been reported in up to 26% of patients with coeliac disease. This is probably an overestimate, because of the chance associations with some common neurological conditions such as epilepsy. The pathogenesis is speculative but...
متن کاملInduction of transient neurological dysfunction in baboons by platelet microemboli.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE To investigate experimental mechanisms of reversible cerebral dysfunction, we produced transient focal cerebral ischemia in five baboons by unilateral perfusion of internal carotid territories with platelet microemboli generated endogenously. METHODS Platelet microemboli were formed by incorporating segments of Dacron vascular graft for 1 hour as unilateral carotid arte...
