background: central nervous system (cns) relapse in acute lymphoblastic leukemia was significantly decreased due to the use of new chemotherapyeutic agents, intrathecal chemotherapy and cranial irradiation. the purpose of this study was to compare the effectiveness of intrathecal (it) cns chemotherapy alone versus combination of it chemotherapy with cranial irradiation for prevention of cns rel...

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...

Ataxia can be classified according to the onset into episodic, acute, intermittent and chronic ataxia. Acute ataxia in children is caused by CNS tumors, trauma, CNS infection, toxins, metabolic causes or stroke. Recurrent ataxia can be due to metabolic causes, seizures, basilar artery migraine or toxins. Chronic ataxia is usually the result of hereditary ataxia, CNS tumors, congenital anomalies...

OBJECTIVE There is a major problem about the incidence, diagnosis, and differentiation of cerebral salt wasting syndrome (CSWS) and syndrome of inappropriate secretion of antidiuretic hormone (SIADH) in patients with acute central nervous system (CNS) disorders. According to rare reports of these cases, this study was performed in children with acute CNS disorders for diagnosis of CSWS versus S...

introduction acute disseminated encephalomyelitis (adem) is an acute inflammatory and demyelinating disease of the central nervous system, resulting in various neurological symptoms. usually, the disease appears following vaccination or systemic viral infections. in rare cases, the disease appears following pneumococcal infections. case presentation the patient was a 27 year-old man who was ref...

Most acute central nervous system (CNS) viral infections lead to either encephalitis or meningitis. Many neurotropic viruses may cause CNS dysfunctions through various mechanisms including oxidative stress. Serum uric acid (SUA) levels, which are associated with oxidative stress and antioxidant status, are reduced in patients with various neurological disorders, including multiple sclerosis. We...
