background & objectives: the accurate assessment of the diseased tissue is fundamental to the diagnosis and management of disorders of the central nervous system (cns). the ‛squash’ or ‛crush’ technique has been universally employed in the intraoperative diagnosis of cns tumors. the aim of our study was to evaluate the accuracy of squash preparation in diagnosing cns tumors by comparing wit...

Glutamate is extensively and relatively uniformly distributed in the central nervous system (CNS) and its effects mediated by two distinct groups of receptors including Ionotropic and metabotropic glutamate receptors. Concentration of glutamate in the nervous system is much higher than in other tissues. Glutamate receptors play an important role in synaptic transmission, neural plasticity and n...

multiple sclerosis (ms) is a progressive and autoimmune neurodegenerative disease of the central nervous system (cns). this disease is recognized through symptoms like inflammation, demyelination and the destruction of neurological actions. experimental allergic encephalomyelitis (eae) is a widely accepted animal model for ms. eae is created in animals by injecting the tissue of myelin basic pr...

thalamic pain syndrome, a type of central post-stroke pain (cpsp), may develops after a hemorrhagic or ischemic stroke and results in impairment of the thalamus. there is limited experience about gabapentin in treatment of central pains like cpsp.in a prospective observational study, the intensity of pain was recorded using the numeric rating scale (nrs) at the entrance to the study. patients e...
