tumors of the central nervous system (cns), occur relatively frequently during the early years of life. they are the most common solid tumors of childhood and are second only to leukemia in overall cancer incidence and account for a high proportion of deaths. in different studied performed in several countries, astrocytomas and other gilomas (combined) account for half of the cns malignancies, ...

Epithelioid hemangioendothelioma (EHE) is one of the rarest vascular tumor found in brain. In pediatric group patients, proportion EHE only 0.02% all brain neoplasms, and therefore oncogenesis causes are currently not well understood. Intracranial localization extremely rare, nevertheless, this type neoplasm should be included differential diagnostic series when multiple small intracerebral mas...

The inflammatory environment of demyelinated lesions in multiple sclerosis (MS) patients contributes to remyelination failure. Inflammation activates a cytoprotective pathway, the integrated stress response (ISR), but it remains unclear whether enhancing ISR can improve an environment. To examine this possibility, stage experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE), as well mouse model that i...

Recovery of function following central nervous system lesions can be attributed to several changes in the nervous system that occur with time following the initial injury. This article reviews research demonstrating that if the subjects were required to perform specific tasks on a daily basis, recovery was facilitated. Pyramidal tract, cerebellar, and central visual lesions are discussed. Altho...

Brain biopsy plays a crucial role in the exploration of suspect white matter lesions in the differential diagnosis of primary central nervous system lymphoma (PCNSL) and inflammatory demyelination. We present the case of a previously healthy, immunocompetent woman, aged fifty-nine, who developed a histologically confirmed demyelinating white matter lesion months prior to the manifestation of a ...

Background: About half of all brain tumors are primary, and the remainder are metastatic. Tumors of the nervous system have unique characteristics that set them apart from neoplastic processes elsewhere in the body. The World Health Organization (WHO) has classified central nervous system (CNS) tumors as grades I to IV in increasing order of malignancy. The goal of this study was to follow the...

The cure of spinal cord lesion, hemiplegia and cerebral palsy are unsolved clinical problems. The papers presented herein offer a scientific approach to possible treatment in spinal cord lesion, and show similarities to the treatments of hemiplegia and cerebral palsy. The basic principle behind these new treatments is that the same rhythm coupling of neuronal subnetworks is used for the treatme...
