متن کاملA Thyroglossal Duct Cyst Causing Obstructive Sleep Apnea in Adult
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a common disorder. It usually results from the structural compromise of the upper airway. In patients with OSA, the obstruction predominantly occurs along the pharyngeal airway, and also a variety of tumors have been reported to cause such a condition. We present here the case of a thyroglossal duct cyst causing OSA in adult. This case demonstrates that thyroglo...
متن کاملAn Odontoid Fracture Causing Apnea, Cardiac Instability, and Quadriplegia
Odontoid fractures are typically associated with low rates of acute neurologic deficit and morbidity/mortality in nonelderly patients. In the patient in this case, traumatic injury triggered by a syncopal event led to a combined C1-C2 fracture and a fatal spinal cord injury with apnea, quadriplegia, and cardiovascular instability. We briefly review the anatomical basis for the pathophysiology o...

Depression is associated both with a reduced size of brain regions regulating mood and cognition, including the prefrontal cortex and the hippocampus, and decreased neuronal synapses in these areas. Antidepressants can block or reverse these neuronal deficits although they have limited efficacy and delayed response time of weeks or months. Basic studies show that ketamine, an N-methyl-D-asparat...
