Regional cerebral blood flow in Alzheimer's disease.
Neural networks have been successfully applied to brain perfusion images to classify patients with Alzheimer's disease from normal or other patient populations. Given the recognition that Alzheimer's disease constitutes a heterogeneous disorder, the identification of subgroups sharing common functional brain deficits would constitute a further improvement in the utility of such methods. Therefo...
متن کاملSex differences in regional cerebral blood flow.
Regional cerebral blood flow was measured by the 133-xenon inhalation method during resting in 38 healthy men and 38 healthy women matched pairwise for age in the range 18-72 years. The results showed 11% higher global flow level in the women in all ages. A similar and significant regression of flow by age was seen for both sexes. The regional flow distribution also showed some sex-related diff...
متن کاملCerebral cholesterol granuloma in homozygous familial hypercholesterolemia.
Familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) is characterized by the accumulation of excess cholesterol in tissues including the artery wall and tendons. We describe a patient with homozygous FH who presented with asymptomatic cholesterol granuloma of the brain. The patient's plasma low-density lipoprotein cholesterol level was remarkably responsive to combination hypolipidemic therapy with statin plus e...
متن کاملFamilial hypercholesterolemia: a case report
Abstract Familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) is a hereditary dislipidemia. Patients present with extremely high level of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), which is due to mutation in the gene of LDL receptor. Homozygous patients (HoFH) whose incidence is 1 in 1.000.000 are at high risk of premature aortic valve stenosis, and coronary artery atherosclerosis. In homozygous individual...
متن کاملRaised intracranial pressure and cerebral blood flow. 4. Intracranial pressure gradients and regional cerebral blood flow.
Intracranial pressure was raised by expansion of a supratentorial subdural ballon in anaesthetized baboons. Pressures were measured at several sites, both supratentorial and infratentorial, and cerebral blood flow was measured in each cerebral hemisphere separately. Pressures recorded from the right and left lateral ventricles corresponded closely throughout. Highly significant correlations wer...
