Hemodynamic changes during posterior epilepsies: an eeg-fnirs study
(Elsevier, 2014)
Posterior epilepsies are relatively rare, mainly suspected clinically by the presence of visual auras. Functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) is an emerging non-invasive imaging technique that has the potential to ...
fNIRS-EEG study of focal interictal epileptiform discharges
(Elsevier, 2014-03)
Functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) acquired with electroencephalography (EEG) is a relatively new non-invasive neuroimaging technique with potential for long term monitoring of the epileptic brain. Simultaneous ...
Oxidative stress: a systemic factor implicated in the pathogenesis of hepatic encephalopathy
(2013)
Although ammonia is considered the main factor involved in the pathogenesis of hepatic encephalopathy (HE), it correlates well with the severity of HE in acute liver failure, but not in chronic liver disease. Oxidative ...
Portacaval anastomosis-induced hyperammonemia does not lead to oxidative stress
(2010-03)
Ammonia is neurotoxic and believed to play a major role in the pathogenesis of hepatic encephalopathy (HE). It has been demonstrated, in vitro and in vivo, that acute and high ammonia treatment induces oxidative stress. ...
Increase brain lactate in hepatic encephalopathy: Cause or consequence?
(2010-11)
Hepatic encephalopathy (HE) is a complex neuropsychiatric syndrome which develops as a result of liver failure or disease. Increased concentrations of brain lactate (microdialysate, cerebrospinal fluid, tissue) are commonly ...
