Microglia cells are the resident macrophages of the CNS, and their activation plays a critical role in inflammatory reactions associated with many brain disorders, including ischemia, Alzheimer's and Parkinson's diseases, and epilepsy. However, the changes of microglia functional properties in epilepsy have rarely been studied. Here, we used a model of status epilepticus (SE) induced by intrape...

Abstrakt Hlavními požadavky kladenými na pohybové osy NC obráběcích strojů jsou vysoká přesnost polohování a vysoká dynamika pohybů. Základní předpoklad pro dosažení těchto protichůdných předpokladů jsou tuhá a lehká konstrukce mechanické struktury stroje. Těmito parametry je dána výše první antirezonanční frekvence, která omezuje nastavení zesílení kaskádně uspořádaných regulátorů rychlosti a ...

Wasp stings are ubiquitous worldwide and generally cause self-limiting local reaction. Occasionally more serious systemic reactions such as anaphylaxis, rhabdomyolysis, and intravascular hemolysis may occur, especially with multiple stings. Although exceedingly rare, neurologic complications of the wasp sting have been described. We report a case of allergic encephalitis with gelastic status ep...

Presentamos un compilador capaz de generar analizadores sintácticos a partir de esquemas de análisis sintáctico. Dichos esquemas son representaciones de los analizadores en forma de sistemas deductivos, que abstraen los detalles de implementación y permiten definir y comparar fácilmente diferentes algoritmos. Nuestro compilador es capaz de generar, a partir de uno de estos esquemas, el código d...

Las Enfermedades Infecciosas Desatendidas (EID) son un grupo de enfermedades que comparten como característica común los insuficientes recursos destinados por los sistemas de salud para atenderlas. Esta limitación se expresa en diversas formas y conduce a un desconocimiento de su participación en la carga de enfermedad local y global, lo que se agrava pues se asocian a la pobreza, el aislamient...

PURPOSE To determine the rate of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) pleocytosis among children presenting with status epilepticus (SE) without proven central nervous system infection. METHOD We performed a retrospective cross-sectional study of all patients aged one month to 21 years of age who were evaluated in a single pediatric emergency department (ED) for SE between 1995 and 2012. We limited our ...
