Cortical venous thrombosis (CVT) mostly occurs due to a hypercoagulable state. Infection- related CVT is very rare and medical emergency associated with high mortality rate. It has been described bacterial fungal infections; but only few isolated case reports of tubercular meningitis (TBM) exist. Only six documentations CVT, as complication TBM, exist in the literature. Here, we report young gi...

This study characterizes the receptor binding and functional effects of CVT-3619 [2-{6-[((1R,2R)-2-hydroxycyclopentyl)-amino]purin-9-yl}(4S,5S,2R,3R)-5-[(2-fluorophenylthio)methyl]-oxolane-3,4-diol], a novel N(6)-5' -substituted adenosine analog and A(1) -adenosine receptor (A(1) AdoR) agonist, on rat epididymal and inguinal adipocytes and on the isolated heart and compares these effects with t...

Methods: 146 patients with breast cancer, received 4-6 cycles of CT with FAC regimen. The complex of clinical, laboratory and instrumental investigations was performed to the patients from this group. The main evaluated toxicity types were hematological, gastrointestinal (GIT), liver and cardiovascular toxicity (CVT). Results: GIT was more common in patients aged less than 50 years old (100% vs...

Abstract Thrombosis of the cerebral veins and sinuses (CVT) is a distinct cerebrovascular disorder that, unlike arterial stroke, most often affects children young adults, especially women. In this review, we will summarize recent advances on knowledge patients with CVT.

This paper presents the results of a comparative investigation into effects ignition method on ballistic properties three types propellants: single-base propellant, double-base propellant and low vulnerability (LOVA) as determined via closed vessel tests (CVT). Conventional gunpowder plasma jet methods were used. The influence values characteristics obtained in CVT was analysed. It found that h...

Cerebral venous thrombosis (CVT) can be difficult to diagnose because of its wide spectrum of clinical manifestations. Its diagnosis may be further complicated when patients initially present with acute subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). We report on four patients with SAH revealing a CVT and discuss the role of imaging for diagnostic and pretherapeutic workup. In three women and one man presenting...

Cerebral venous thrombosis (CVT) affects particularly young adults with an incidence of 1.3 per 100 000 personyears in the general population and is more frequent in young women. Diagnosis and treatment of CVT is challenging as clinical signs and symptoms (eg, headache, impaired vision, focal deficit, and seizures) are unspecific. CVT can be complicated by brain infarction and intracranial hemo...

Cerebral venous thrombosis (CVT) presenting as subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) is infrequent. We present the case of a man with CVT of the right transverse sinus who presented with a SAH in the right parietal sinus. In this case, we describe a hyper-homocysteinemia in a heterozygous patient for the methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase C667T mutation. Our report highlights the value of an early dia...

The incidence of cerebral venous thrombosis (CVT) has dropped dramatically in recent years. In the past, before the introduction of antibiotics, infection was the main cause of CVT. But this is no longer true. Recently, the occurance of septic CVT is rare, which leads to an increased chance of misdiagnosis and treatment delay. Early suspicion and recognition is very crucial to improve mortality...

Background. The association between cerebral venous thrombosis (CVT) and multiple sclerosis (MS) has already been reported in patients with clinically definite MS in relation to intravenous methylprednisolone (IVMP) or previously performed lumbar puncture (LP). Case Summery. We report a 29-year-old Indian female who presented with a clinically isolated spinal cord syndrome according to the revi...
