Cerebrospinal fluid absorption in primary hypoparathyroidism.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Cerebrospinal fluid absorption has been studied in a patient with primary hypoparathyroidism, papilloedema, and epilepsy. A marked reduction of cerebrospinal fluid transport into plasma was demonstrated which returned to normal after correction of the hypocalcaemia.

Hypoparathyroidism as the First Mani-Festation of Kearns-Sayre Syndrome: A Case Report
Kearns-Sayre syndrome is a mitochondrial myopathy, which was first described by Tomas Kearn in 1958. Diagnostic symptoms of this condition include retinitis pigmentosa, chronic progressive external ophthalmoplegia, and one or more of the following factors: cardiac conduction system diseases, cerebellar ataxia, and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) with protein content above 100 mg/dL. The nature of thi...
متن کاملAn Investigation into the CSF Absorption in Cats
Objective Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), its secretion, circulation and absorption have been the subject of recent researches. There is a general agreement that the main site of CSF secretion is in the choroids plexus. However, the main absorption site is controversial. Some believe that arachnoid granulations are the principle sites of CSF absorption. In this study, different locations of CSF abs...

متن کاملCerebrospinal fluid transport: a lymphatic perspective.
The textbook view that projections of the arachnoid membrane into the cranial venous sinuses represent the primary cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) absorption sites seems incompatible with many clinical and experimental observations. On balance, there is more quantitative evidence suggesting a function for extracranial lymphatic vessels than exists to support a role for arachnoid villi and granulation...
متن کاملHigh neuronal/astroglial differentiation plasticity of adult rat hippocampal neural stem/progenitor cells in response to the effects of embryonic and adult cerebrospinal fluids
Hippocampal neural stem/progenitor cells (hipp-NS/PCs) of the adult mammalian brain are important sources of neuronal and gial cell production. In this study, the main goal is to investigate the plasticity of these cells in neuronal/astroglial differentiations. To this end, the differentiation of the hipp-NS/PCs isolated from 3-month-old Wistar rats was investigated in response to the embryonic...
