Acute Febrile Encephalopathy
ثبت نشده
چکیده
An immortalized cell line derived from human ADENOCARCINOMA, ALVEOLAR basal epithelial cells isolated from the lungs of a male patient in 1972. The cell line is positive for KERATIN, can synthesize LECITHIN, and contains high levels of POLYUNSATURATED FATTY ACIDS in its PLASMA MEMBRANE. It is used as a model for PULMONARY ALVEOLI function and virus infections, as a TRANSFECTION host, and for PRECLINICAL DRUG EVALUATION.

Emergency cranial computed tomography in the management of acute febrile encephalopathy in children.
OBJECTIVE Evaluation of the influence of emergency cranial computed tomography on the management of acute febrile encephalopathy in children. METHODS A retrospective study in children with acute febrile encephalopathy who underwent emergency cranial computed tomography within 12 hours of admission to the paediatric intensive care unit. All scans were evaluated by two independent radiologists....
متن کاملChanges in Cerebrospinal Fluid Biomarkers in Human Herpesvirus-6-Associated Acute Encephalopathy/Febrile Seizures
To determine the involvement of oxidative stress in the pathogenesis of acute encephalopathy associated with human herpesvirus-6 (HHV-6) infection, we measured the levels of oxidative stress markers 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) and hexanoyl-lysine adduct (HEL), tau protein, and cytokines in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) obtained from patients with HHV-6-associated acute encephalopathy (HHV-...
متن کاملIdentification of a novel biomarker candidate, a 4.8-kDa peptide fragment from a neurosecretory protein VGF precursor, by proteomic analysis of cerebrospinal fluid from children with acute encephalopathy using SELDI-TOF-MS
BACKGROUND Acute encephalopathy includes rapid deterioration and has a poor prognosis. Early intervention is essential to prevent progression of the disease and subsequent neurologic complications. However, in the acute period, true encephalopathy cannot easily be differentiated from febrile seizures, especially febrile seizures of the complex type. Thus, an early diagnostic marker has been sou...
متن کاملRefractory focal epilepsy following acute encephalopathy with inflammation-mediated status epilepticus
Refractory focal epilepsy following acute febrile encephalopathy, also called fever-induced refractory epileptic encephalopathy in school-aged children or febrile infection-related epilepsy syndrome (FIRES), is a topic of great interest and is a newly described condition in Europe and Asia. In a recent review, Nabbout et al. termed this entity ‘‘acute encephalopathy with inflammation-mediated s...
متن کاملDistinguishing Acute Encephalopathy with Biphasic Seizures and Late Reduced Diffusion from Prolonged Febrile Seizures by Acute Phase EEG Spectrum Analysis
BACKGROUND To differentiate the features of electroencephalography (EEG) after status epileptics in febrile children with final diagnosis of either febrile seizure (FS) or acute encephalopathy for an early diagnosis. METHODS We retrospectively collected data from 68 children who had status epilepticus and for whom EEGs were recorded within 120 h. These included subjects with a final diagnosis...
متن کاملImaging in adult patients with acute febrile encephalopathy: what is better computerized tomography or magnetic resonance imaging.
CONTEXT Imaging techniques are commonly used by emergency physicians in a febrile comatose patient. Their utility requires judicious use of the available resources. In this study, we have compared the efficacy of cranial imaging techniques in adult patients with acute febrile encephalopathy. MATERIALS AND METHODS This prospective observational study enrolled 101 patients presenting to the eme...
