EEG with triphasic waves in Borrelia burgdorferi meningoencephalitis.
We describe a case of encephalopathy in which the clinical picture and triphasic waves in the EEG indicated a metabolic cause. However, the illness was caused by neuroborreliosis. The occurrence of triphasic waves in the EEG is a strong evidence of metabolic encephalopathy, but triphasic waves are not specific for metabolic encephalopathy. Triphasic waves have been described in a number of non-...
متن کاملThose troublesome but never tiresome triphasic waves.
(TWs) and generalized spike waves (GSWs), as in nonconvulsive generalized status epilepticus, are biologically distinct, but can closely resemble one another on the scalprecorded EEG.1 As numerous authors have pointed out, TWs are characteristic of metabolic encephalopathies.2-5 However, they have also been described in sepsis, meningitis and cortical degenerative diseases.6-9 Many of these con...
متن کاملTriphasic waves during post-ictal stupor.
BACKGROUND The term, "triphasic wave" originally described an EEG pattern believed to be a marker for a specific stage of hepatic coma. For 4 decades, the diagnostic and prognostic specificity of the pattern remains controversial. Its pathophysiology also continues to be elusive. METHODS EEG recordings were obtained in three patients known or suspected to have primary generalized epilepsy. In...
متن کاملAssociation between Consumed Foods and Musculoskeletal Disorder in Office Workers
Background: Musculoskeletal disorder (MSD) is one of the important problems concerning the staffschr('39') health and productivity in the workplace. Nutritional status and consumption of some foods are also among the determining factors of MSD. So, this study aimed to evaluate the correlation of diet and consumed food groups with MSD.

متن کاملThe Association Between Genetic Variants in the Dopaminergic System and Posttraumatic Stress Disorder
Posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a complex mental disorder and can severely interfere with the normal life of the affected people. Previous studies have examined the association of PTSD with genetic variants in multiple dopaminergic genes with inconsistent results. To perform a systematic literature search and conduct meta-analysis to examine whether genetic variants in the dopaminergic ...
