Early tissue damage and microstructural reorganization predict disease severity in experimental epilepsy
Mesial temporal lobe epilepsy (mTLE) is the most common focal epilepsy in adults and is often refractory to medication. So far, resection of the epileptogenic focus represents the only curative therapy. It is unknown whether pathological processes preceding epilepsy onset are indicators of later disease severity. Using longitudinal multi-modal MRI, we monitored hippocampal injury and tissue reo...
متن کاملMicrostructural brain tissue damage in metabolic syndrome.
OBJECTIVE We investigated the association between metabolic syndrome risk factors and brain tissue integrity, as assessed by magnetic resonance imaging. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS From the Leiden Longevity Study, which is a community-based study of long-lived subjects, their offspring, and partners thereof, 130 subjects (61 men; mean age 66 years) were included. A metabolic syndrome score wa...

متن کاملAmygdala damage in experimental and human temporal lobe epilepsy.
The amygdala complex is one component of the temporal lobe that may be damaged unilaterally or bilaterally in children and adults with temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) or following status epilepticus. Most MR (magnetic resonance) imaging studies of epileptic patients have shown that volume reduction of the amygdala ranges from 10-30%. In the human amygdala, neuronal loss and gliosis have been repor...
متن کاملDisease activity and severity in early inflammatory arthritis predict hand cortical bone loss
OBJECTIVES To determine the influence of disease-related variables on hand cortical bone loss in women with early inflammatory arthritis (IA), and whether hand cortical bone mass predicts subsequent joint damage. METHOD Adults aged ≥ 16 years with recent onset of IA were recruited to the Norfolk Arthritis Register between 1990 and 1998, and followed prospectively. At baseline, patients had th...
