New Insights into Pathophysiology of Vestibular Migraine
Vestibular migraine (VM) is a common disorder in which genetic, epigenetic, and environmental factors probably contribute to its development. The pathophysiology of VM is unknown; nevertheless in the last few years, several studies are contributing to understand the neurophysiological pathways involved in VM. The current hypotheses are mostly based on the knowledge of migraine itself. The evide...
متن کاملErythroid Adhesion Molecules in Sickle Cell Anaemia Infants: Insights Into Early Pathophysiology
Sickle cell anaemia (SCA) results from a single mutation in the β globin gene. It is seldom symptomatic in the first semester of life. We analysed the expression pattern of 9 adhesion molecules on red blood cells, in a cohort of 54 SCA and 17 non-SCA very young infants of comparable age (median 144 days, 81-196). Haemoglobin F (HbF) level was unsurprisingly elevated in SCA infants (41.2% ± 11.2...
متن کاملSickle cell nephropathy.
Herrick [1] was the first to discover sickle cell hemoglobin ( 2 2) with sickle-shaped erythrocytes. In 1910, he described the case of a young black student from the West Indies with severe anemia characterized by “peculiar elongated and sickle-shaped red blood corpuscles.” Herrick also noted a slightly increased volume of urine of low specific gravity and thus observed the most frequent featur...

متن کاملTako-Tsubo cardiomyopathy: new insights into the possible underlying pathophysiology.
UNLABELLED Tako-Tsubo cardiomyopathy is characterised by an atypical distribution of left ventricular (LV) dysynergy with apical ballooning and compensatory basal hyperkinesis. Coronary angiography is normal. Several substrates have been put forward to explain the underlying pathophysiology such as raised catecholamine levels (due to physical or emotional stress), multivessel epicardial coronar...
