In this paper it has been shown that deterioration of the brain cortex capillary system and negative dynamics of cerebral tissue morphology occur under conditions of hypo kinesia. Simultaneously, gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) and piracetam have been shown to favor the development of vasodilation and prevent further worsening of the cerebral blood supply. During the experiment, it was also ...

the remarkable evolution of surgical management of cerebral hydatidosis towards an earlier diagnosis and proper treatment is evident from this 22-year retrospective study of our experience with 19 cases seen at shiraz university medical institutions. both cases of iatrogenically-induced infected cysts were seen during the pre-ct era. the optimistic view of being able to remove all the cysts int...

Objective(s): Paeoniflorin (PF) has anti-oxidation, anti-inflammation, anti-apoptosis, and neuroprotection pharmacological effects against ischemic injury. The aim of the present study was to investigate the neuroprotection mechanisms of PF in cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury rats.Materials and Methods: We established an animal model of cerebral infarct by occlusion of the middle cerebral a...

one of the important and usual missed causes of pediatric traumas is child abuse. this ominous phenomenon, which can be presented physically, psychologically, sexually, and emotionally has grown significantly in recent years. many children are not diagnosed in the early stages of evaluation. battered child syndrome is used to describe the clinical condition of the child serious physical abuse b...

dyke-davidoff-masson syndrome (ddms) is a syndrome associated with refractory epilepsy. ddms is a rare syndrome characterized by seizures, facial asymmetry, contralateral hemiplegia and mental retardation. the characteristic radiologic features are cerebral hemiatrophy with homolateral hypertrophy of the skull and sinuses. the case was an 18 years old female with seizures, hemiparesis of the ri...

background susceptibility-weighted imaging (swi) is extremely sensitive in the detection of superparamagnetic iron oxide (spio) nanoparticle-labeled cells. however, no study has compared molecular imaging for stem cell detection using swi and other mri pulse sequences. objectives this study aims to assess the sensitivity of swi in detecting spio nanoparticle-labeled, human bone marrow-derived m...

background: evidence is accumulating that venous thromboembolism is not limited to coagulation system and immune system seems to be involved in formation and resolution of thrombus. some studies have demonstrated the role of inflammatory factors in deep venous thrombosis (dvt) of limbs; however, there has not been such study in the patients with cerebral venous sinus thrombosis (cvst). the purp...

objective(s):global cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury causes loss of pyramidal cells in ca1 region of hippocampus. in this study, we investigated the possible neuroprotective effects of the ethanol extract of cyperus rotundus (eecr) on a model of global transient ischemia in rat, by evaluating the pathophysiology of the hippocampal tissue and spatial memory. materials and methods: treatment ...
