Magnetic resonance imaging in neonatal encephalopathy 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Magnetic resonance imaging may provide invaluable information in the term born neonate with encephalopathy. However, both hardware and sequences may need adaptation from normal adult protocols. Sedation is often required to obtain good quality imaging, but anaesthesia is not necessary in this population. The perinatal history may predict the pattern of brain lesions, which, in turn, may be used to predict the neurodevelopmental outcome. Image interpretation is not easy and requires a full clinical history in addition to experience of both normal and abnormal neonatal brain appearances. Lesions evolve rapidly, and perinatally acquired leasions are at the most obvious 1-2 weeks from delivery. Early imaging in the first few days from presentation should always include diffusion-weighted sequences to identify early ischaemic change. Advanced techniques such as venography, angiography and perfusion-weighted imaging may be useful in certain situations, and serial imaging may help differentiate perinatal-acquired lesions from other pathologies. 相似文献

The identification and subsequent development of the GABA transport inhibitor tiagabine has confirmed the important role that GABA transporters play in the control of CNS excitability. Tiagabine was later demonstrated to be a selective inhibitor of the GABA transporter GAT1. Although selective for GAT1, tiagabine lacks cell type selectivity and is an equipotent inhibitor of neuronal and glial GAT1. To date, four GABA transporters have been cloned, i.e., GAT1-4. The finding that some of these display differential cellular and regional expression patterns suggests that drugs targeting GABA transporters other than GAT1 might offer some therapeutic advantage over GAT1 selective inhibitors. Furthermore, it is particularly interesting that several recently defined GABA transport inhibitors have been demonstrated to display a preferential selectivity for the astrocytic GAT1 transporter. That cellular heterogeneity of GAT1 plays a role in the control of CNS function is confirmed by the demonstration that inhibition of astrocytic GABA uptake is highly correlated to anticonvulsant activity. At the present time, a functional role for the other GABA transporters is less well defined. However, recent findings have suggested a role for the mouse GAT2 (homologous to the human betaine transporter) in the control of seizure activity. In these studies, the non-selective GAT1 and mouse GAT2 transport inhibitor EF1502 (N-[4,4-bis(3-methyl-2-thienyl)-3-butenyl]-3-hydroxy-4-(methylamino)-4,5,6,7-tetrahydrobenzo[d]isoxazol-3-ol) was found to exert a synergistic anticonvulsant action when tested in combination with the GAT1 selective inhibitors tiagabine and LU-32-176B (N-[4,4-bis(4-fluorophenyl)-butyl]-3-hydroxy-4-amino-4,5,6,7-tetrahydrobenzo[d]isoxazol-3-ol). Additional studies will be required to define a role for the other GABA transporters and to further identify the functional importance of their demonstrated cellular and regional heterogeneity. A summary of these and other issues are discussed in this brief review. 相似文献

Ferroelectric property that induces electrocaloric effect was investigated in Ba(GexTi1−x)O3 ceramics, known as BTGx. X-ray diffraction analysis shows pure perovskite phases in tetragonal symmetry compatible with the P4mm (No. 99) space group. Dielectric permittivity exhibits first-order ferroelectric-paraelectric phase transition, confirmed by specific heat measurements, similar to that observed in BaTiO3 (BTO) crystal. Curie temperature varies weakly as a function of Ge-content. Using the direct and indirect method, we confirmed that the adiabatic temperature change ΔT reached its higher value of 0.9 K under 8 kV/cm for the composition BTG6, corresponding to an electrocaloric responsivity ΔT/ΔE of 1.13 × 10−6 K.m/V. Such electrocaloric responsivity significantly exceeds those obtained so far in other barium titanate-based lead-free electrocaloric ceramic materials. Energy storage investigations show promising results: stored energy density of ~17 mJ/cm3 and an energy efficiency of ~88% in the composition BTG5. These results classify the studied materials as candidates for cooling devices and energy storage applications. 相似文献

The effect of changes in medullary extracellular tonicity on mRNA expression for aldose reductase (AR), sorbitol dehydrogenase
(SDH), Na+/Cl–/betaine (BGT) and Na+/myo-inositol (SMIT) cotransporter in different kidney zones was studied using Northern blot analysis and non-radioactive in situ
hybridization in four groups of rats: controls, acute diuresis (the loop diuretic furosemide was administered), chronic diuresis
(5 days of diuresis), and antidiuresis [5 days of diuresis followed by 24 h deamino-Cys1,d-Arg8 vasopressin (dDAVP)]. Acute administration of the loop diuretic furosemide significantly reduced AR, SMIT and BGT gene expression
in the inner and outer medulla compared with controls. Administration of dDAVP to chronically diuretic rats raised the expression
of these three mRNAs in the inner but not the outer medulla compared with the chronically diuretic rats. None of these alterations
in medullary tonicity significantly changed SDH expression. The in situ hybridization studies showed AR, BGT and SMIT mRNAs
to be expressed in both epithelial and non-epithelial cells of the outer and inner medulla. The various cell types (epithelial,
endothelial and interstitial cells) differed in their expression pattern and intensity of AR, SDH, BGT and SMIT mRNA, but
the inner medullary cells responded uniformly to a decrease in extracellular tonicity with a reduction, and to an increase
with enhancement of their AR, BGT and SMIT expression.

Background
Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) is associated with impairments in multiple neuropsychological domains but the findings are rather inconsistent across studies. One potential reason for poor replication is the confounding influence of medications. There is limited research on neuropsychological performance in medication-naïve, never treated OCD patients.Methods
In this study, we assessed 31 medication-naïve, never-treated, DSM-IV OCD patients free of comorbid major depression and 31 healthy controls individually matched for age, gender and years of education, with tests of attention, executive function, memory reasoning and visuo-spatial function.Results
Medication-naïve OCD patients did not significantly differ from healthy controls on most neuropsychological tests. Patients performed somewhat poorly only on the highest goal hierarchy of the Tower of London (TOL) test (p = 0.001, effect size = 0.68).Conclusions
It is intriguing to find that symptomatic, drug-naïve OCD patients did not significantly differ from healthy controls on most neuropsychological tests. Our finding of medium effect size on TOL highest goal hierarchy test suggests that brain regions outside the affective orbitofrontal loop may also be perhaps involved in OCD. This finding however needs replication because of modest effect size. Future studies should focus on studying medication-naïve, co-morbidity-free patients and relatives using symptom dimensions for consistent and robust findings. 相似文献7.
Magnetic resonance imaging of the brain is invaluable in assessing the neonate who presents with encephalopathy. Successful imaging requires adaptations to both the hardware and sequences used for adults. Knowledge of the perinatal and postnatal details are essential for the correct interpretation of the imaging findings. Perinatal lesions are at their most obvious on conventional imaging between 1 and 2 weeks from delivery. Very early imaging is useful to guide management in ventilated neonates but abnormalities may be subtle on conventional sequences. Diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) is clinically useful for the early identification of ischaemic tissue in the neonatal brain, the pattern of which can predict outcome. DWI may underestimate the final extent of injury, particularly basal ganglia and thalamic lesions. Serial imaging with quantification of both tissue damage and structure size provides invaluable insights into the effects of perinatal injury on the developing brain. 相似文献
