myo inositol/hemorrhage

Neurons and glial cells respond to extracellular hyperosmolarity by accumulating small organic solutes, called "osmolytes." Na+/myo-inositol is one of the major organic osmolytes in the brain and Na+/myo-inositol cotransporter (SMIT) regulates extracellular Na+/myo-inositol content. Subarachnoid

We examined the expression of Na(+)/myo-inositol cotransporter (SMIT) in the rat brain after intrastriatal hemorrhage. The expression of SMIT messenger RNA (mRNA) increased around hematoma 3 days after hemorrhage and it returned to control level as hematoma was absorbed. The expression of SMIT mRNA

BACKGROUND Delayed neurological deficit (DND) is the most important cause of morbidity and mortality in patients with subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) whose aneurysms have been secured. However, the methods currently used to predict the development of DND, such as trans-cranial Doppler or levels

Previous studies of myo-inositol in preterm infants with respiratory distress found reduced severity of retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) and less frequent ROP, death, and intraventricular hemorrhage. However, no large trials have tested its efficacy or safety. To test the adverse events and efficacy

OBJECTIVE Histopathology is the gold standard to establish the grade of brain tumors but biopsy and/or surgery are not always possible. The aim of this study is to determine whether histological grade of tumors may be predicted by means of conventional gadolinium-enhanced MRI and proton magnetic

OBJECTIVE In chronic liver dysfunction with portal hypertension the risk of variceal bleeding can be lowered by intrahepatic portosystemic shunting (TIPS). Although less pronounced than in surgical shunting, hepatic encephalopathy (HE) is a well-known undesired side effect. In cerebral proton MR

BACKGROUND Hepatic encephalopathy (HE) may occur after transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPSS) placement. Multimodal magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), combining anatomical sequences, diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) and 1 H magnetic resonance spectroscopy, is modified in cirrhotic

The authors report the unusual case of a 58-year-old woman (MJP) suffering from left temporal throbbing headache, associated with confusion. Magnetic resonance imaging showed a 5 x 3 x 2 cm hematoma at the left posterior temporal--parietal junction (PTPJ). Repeated MRI of MJP's brain performed

The influence of dietary cereal on hepatic lipid metabolism was studied in adult Japanese quail and mature female chickens fed isoenergetic and isonitrogenous corn-soy and wheat-soy diets ad libitum. Hepatic lipid accumulation and rate of biosynthesis were significantly higher in birds fed the

OBJECTIVE A feasibility study of an echo-planar spectroscopic imaging (EPSI) using a short echo time (TE) that trades off sensitivity, compared with other short-TE methods, to achieve whole brain coverage using inversion recovery and spatial oversampling to control lipid bleeding. METHODS Twenty

The present study was planned to evaluate the benefit of synergetic effect of Metformin plus Myo-inositol versus Metformin alone in infertile polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) women undergoing ovulation induction. One hundred and twenty infertile PCOS women were randomized: Group I (n = 60)

Gram-stain-negative, pectinolytic bacteria were repeatedly isolated from pear trees displaying symptoms of bleeding canker in China. Three strains, JS5T, LN1 and QZH3, had identical 16S rRNA gene sequences that shared 99 % similarity to the type strain of Dickeya dadantii. Phylogenetic analysis of
