Fructose consumption has increased dramatically in the last 40 years, and its role in the pathogenesis of the metabolic syndrome has been implicated by many studies. It is most often encountered in the diet as sucrose (glucose and fructose) or high-fructose corn syrup (55% fructose). At high levels, dietary exposure to fructose triggers a series of metabolic changes originating in the liver, le...

the occurrence of neonatal seizures may be the first and perhaps, the only clinical sign of a central nervous system (cns) disorder in the newborn infant. identifying the etiology for the neonatal seizures is/critical to prognosis and treatment. the most common etiology for neonatal seizures is hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy. seizures may indicate the presence of a potentially treatable etiolo...

The human central nervous system (CNS) infections remain the leading cause of intensified morbidity and mortality rates around world. Vanquish barriers that protect brain from pathogens is a prerequisite to develop meningitis. commonest pathogens, pneumococcus, meningococcus, E. coli, H. influenzae are main causative agents in children adults; associated with high […]

Central nervous system (CNS) abnormalities in children related to COVID-19 occur acute and delayed manifestations, a recent study has found. Previously, such manifestations were described mainly case reports. But order understand the full spectrum of disease adolescents, it's important have enough cases aggregate look at neuroimaging manifestations.

In this investigation the effects of excess vitamin A administration during the early embryonic period were studied. Intramuscular injection of a single dose of 15000,20000 or 25000 IU/kg vitamin A to pregnant Balb/c strain mice on either day 7,8,9 or 10 of gestation (vaginal plug= day 0 of gestation) produced major malformations in the central nervous system (CNS) including exencephaly, h...

Background: Patients with acute inflammatory demyelination of the central nervous system (CNS) may present severe neurological impairment, including flaccid quadriparesis and amaurosis. Plasmapheresis (PLEX) is an alternative treatment for patients who do not immediately improve clinically or whom symptoms worsen despite corticosteroid dosing preferred in context serious events.

Multiple cellular components are involved in the complex pathological process following central nervous system (CNS) injury, including neurons, glial cells and endothelial cells. Previous studies and neurotherapeutic clinical trials have assessed the molecular mechanisms that underlie neuronal cell death following CNS injury. However, this approach has largely failed to reduce CNS damage or imp...

superficial siderosis (ss) is a rare disease which affects people in all ages and both sexes, but three times more in men. pathological etiology is deposition of hemosiderin (a product of the breakdown of blood) in leptomeninges, subpial layer, ependymal surface and other parts of central nervous system (cns) and typically leads to neurological dysfunction and progressive irreversible signs and...

This issue of Foods is focused on the general topic of carotenoids within the nervous system. The focus is on the effects of the xanthophylls on the central nervous system (CNS), reflecting the majority of work in this area. [...].
