Chronic daily headache (CDH) is a descriptive term that encompasses multiple headache diagnoses and affects approximately 4% of the general adult population. Chronic daily headache results in significant pain and suffering with substantial impact on quality of life, and enormous economic costs to society. Although most patients with primary CDH suffer from chronic migraine or chronic tension-ty...

Background: This is a case report regarding a 2051-gram female newborn affected by right-sided congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) presenting with encephalocele in the occipital region. Case report: The newborn was delivered by a 38-year-old mother from Darmian city, a rural district located in South Khorasan province, Iran. Co...

BACKGROUND Chronic daily headache (CDH) in children has been documented in general and clinical populations. Comorbid psychological conditions, risk factors and functional outcomes of CDH in children are not well understood. OBJECTIVES To examine anxiety and depression, associated risk factors and school outcomes in a clinical population of youth with CDH compared with youth with episodic hea...

BACKGROUND Patients with congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) may have abnormal lung development, which may cause detrimental effects on right ventricular (RV) function. This study aimed to determine if there are persistent echocardiographic differences in RV function in patients with CDH years after repair versus control patients. METHODS Patients who underwent repair for CDH were recruited...

Laboratory scale tests were conducted at Mintek for the production of titanium powder from particulate Kroll sponge by the hydrogenation-dehydrogenation (HDH) process. The aim of this work was to produce titanium powder for powder metallurgical consolidations. The work involved the production of titanium powder at optimised conditions, which included hydrogenation in a horizontal tube furnace a...

OBJECTIVE To determine the prevalence and characteristics of, and factors associated with, chronic daily headache (CDH) in U.S. soldiers after a deployment-related concussion. METHODS A cross-sectional, questionnaire-based study was conducted with a cohort of 978 U.S. soldiers who screened positive for a deployment-related concussion upon returning from Iraq or Afghanistan. All soldiers under...

Congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) is a developmental malformation characterized by defect in the diaphragm that allows abdominal viscera to move into chest cavity. A routine ultrasound screening performed during pregnancy detects over half of all cases. This paper describes two women who were prenatally diagnosed have fetus with isolated posterolateral CDH. Both mothers underwent medical ab...

Congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) is defined as a protrusion of abdominal content into the thoracic cavity through an abnormal opening in the diaphragm present at birth. It is a common birth defect with high mortality and morbidity. Submicroscopic deletions of 15q26.1 and 8p23.1 have been reported in several cases of CDH. We studied a total of 17 cases with CDH in pre- and postnatal samples...

Anatomically distinct areas within the basal ganglia encode flexible- and stable-value memories for visual objects (Hikosaka et al., 2014), but an important question remains: do they receive inputs from the same or different brain areas or neurons? To answer this question, we first located flexible and stable value-coding areas in the caudate head (CDh) and caudate tail (CDt) of two rhesus maca...
