Les localisations ORL extra ganglionnaires de la tuberculose sont rares. La symptomatologie clinique ainsi que les examens paracliniques sont souvent trompeurs,posant ainsi le problème de diagnostic différentiel avec la pathologie tumorale. Nous rapportons 15 cas de localisations extra ganglionnaires de tuberculose, colligés au service ORL et CCF de l’Hopital Militaire Avicenne de Marrakech col...

In agroecosystems, potential species distribution models are extensively applied in pest management strategies, revealing species ecological requirements and demonstrating relationships between species distribution and predictive variables. The Maximum Entropy model was used to predict the potential distribution of five heteropteran key pests in Iran, namely Adelphocoris lineolatus (Goeze) (Hem...

Progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP) is an atypical parkinsonism, which is the third most common geriatric neurodegenerative disease. We reported three pathology-confirmed Chinese PSP cases with special focus on the pathological accumulations of tau, a-synuclein and A-beta in the three PSP brains. Cases 1 and 2 initiated with extrapyramidal signs and gait disorders, while case 3 suffered behavi...

BACKGROUND Major depressive disorder (MDD) is associated with dysfunction between cognitive control and affective processing system. However, little is known about alterations of the nodal and edge efficiency in abnormal systems of MDD patients. We used two independent datasets and two different structural templates to investigate the alterations of the nodal and edge efficiency of whole-brain ...

Neuropsychiatric disorders (including dementia) have high personal, family, and social costs. Although many neuropsychiatric disorders share common patterns of symptoms and treatments, there are no validated biomarkers that define the underlying molecular mechanisms in the central nervous system (CNS). We hypothesize that there are early and common molecular changes in the CNS that will serve a...

Previous studies have shown that emotional stimuli can be processed through the amygdala without conscious awareness. The amygdala is also involved in processing animate and social information. However, it is unclear whether different categories of pictures (e.g., animals, objects) elicit different activity in the amygdale and other regions without conscious awareness. The objective of this stu...

Abstract An extensive deposit of agate occurs in Pedro González Island the Gulf Panama. Previous archaeological research showed that was exploited between 6200 and 5600 cal BP to make stone tools found at oldest known Preceramic human settlement Pearl archipelago. We constrain here origin geological context through a geochemical study island. show it includes primary volcanic breccias, lavas, t...

Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is a heterogeneous, behaviorally defined neurodevelopmental disorder. Patients with ASD might also have co-morbid disorders such as intellectual impairment, epilepsy, and anxiety. Findings from questionnaire studies have revealed the existence of several sleep problems in pediatric patients with ASD. However, few studies have analyzed the relationship between thes...

background and objectives cannabinoids which are active compounds of marijuana show some pharmacological effects similar to the opioids. there are also functional interactions between both cannabinoid and opioid systems. in this study we investigated the role of cannabinoid receptors in central amygdala and its interaction with opioid system.   methods in the present study, we investigated the ...

introduction: the claustrum interconnects with the allocortical and neocortical regions and also projects to the hippocampus and the amygdala. .the role of claustrum in the complex partial seizure is not clear. thus in this study the effect of amygdala lesion on anterior claustrum kindled seizures in rat were investigated. methods: male wistar rats, weighting 250-300 g, were received dc current...
