unconsciousness/seizures

In order to understand general anaesthesia and certain seizures, a fundamental understanding of the neurobiology of unconsciousness is needed. This article explores similarities in neuronal and network changes during general anaesthesia and seizure-induced unconsciousness. Both seizures and

In order to clearing the influence of neurotransmitters in concussive unconsciousness, immediate convulsion and mortality, the following experiments were performed. Awake male mice of dd-strain were restrained and subjected to head injury using a bakelite weight of 30 gm dropped from a height of 20

Neonatal diabetes mellitus (NDM) caused by mutations in KCNJ11 can be successfully treated with high dose oral sulfonylureas; however, little data is available on the risk of hypoglycemia. To determine the frequency, severity, and clinical significance of hypoglycemia in KCNJ11-related

The aim of this study is to clarify the incidence and clinical features of prolonged unconsciousness and delirious behavior in children with febrile seizures. We studied 213 consecutive febrile seizures during 208 febrile episodes in 203 patients. The seizure manifestations, the duration of

Light chain deposition disease (LCDD) is a form of monoclonal immunoglobulin deposition diseases (MIDD) which in contrast to light-chain derived (AL) amyloidosis is characterized by non-congophilic, non-fibrillary monoclonal protein deposits. Systemic organ deposits are common with the kidney being

The effect of different rates of induction of carbon dioxide anaesthesia on the time to loss of consciousness was investigated in broilers and hens. In experiment 1, 24 and 17 broilers, respectively, were exposed to 45 per cent carbon dioxide within 8 or 18 seconds (accession time). In experiment 2,

Although glufosinate ammonium herbicides are considered safe when used properly, ingestion of the undiluted form can cause grave outcomes. Recently, we treated a 34-yr-old man who ingested glufosinate ammonium herbicide. In the course of treatment, the patient developed apnea, mental deterioration,
