Disorders of the Nervous Tissue01:28

Disorders of the Nervous Tissue

1.5K
Nervous tissue is a vital component of the human body's communication system, enabling us to perceive and respond to stimuli. However, like all other tissues, it is vulnerable to disorders and diseases that can significantly impact our neurological functioning.
Homeostatic Imbalances:
Alzheimer's disease manifests as a gradual decline in memory and cognitive abilities, attributed to the buildup of amyloid plaques and neurofibrillary tangles in the brain.

Neurulation01:30

Neurulation

42.2K
Neurulation is the embryological process which forms the precursors of the central nervous system and occurs after gastrulation has established the three primary cell layers of the embryo: ectoderm, mesoderm, and endoderm. In humans, the majority of this system is formed via primary neurulation, in which the central portion of the ectoderm—originally appearing as a flat sheet of cells—folds upwards and inwards, sealing off to form a hollow neural tube. As development proceeds, the...

Biological Causes of Schizophrenia01:29

Biological Causes of Schizophrenia

115
Schizophrenia, a severe psychiatric disorder, arises from a complex interplay of biological factors, including genetic predisposition, structural brain abnormalities, neurotransmitter dysregulation, and developmental irregularities. These factors collectively contribute to the onset and progression of the disorder, which typically manifests in late adolescence or early adulthood.
Genetic Factors in Schizophrenia
The genetic basis of schizophrenia is strongly supported by family and twin...

Disorders of the Urinary System

440
The urinary system is responsible for eliminating waste and excess fluids from the body. However, disorders of the urinary system can arise due to various reasons like infections, stress, age, congenital abnormalities, and lifestyle.
Urinary tract infections (UTIs) are one of the most common urinary system disorders. They are caused by bacteria that enter the urethra and can spread to the bladder resulting in cystitis. Pyelonephritis is the result of a UTI that has ascended to the level of the...

Aneurysm I: Introduction

An aortic aneurysm is a localized outpouching or dilation at a weak point in the artery wall. It may involve different parts of the aorta, such as the abdominal aorta, aortic arch, or thoracic aorta.Etiological factorsSeveral disorders are associated with aortic aneurysms.Congenital causes, such as primary connective tissue disorders like Marfan syndrome, impact the integrity and strength of connective tissues, notably affecting the aorta. Marfan syndrome is a genetic disorder that specifically...

Cerebrospinal Fluid01:21

Cerebrospinal Fluid

2.8K
Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) is a colorless liquid that flows around the brain and the spinal cord, playing a vital role in the protection, support, and overall function of the central nervous system (CNS). CSF production, circulation, and absorption are tightly regulated processes essential for the brain and spinal cord to function properly.
CSF Production
CSF is produced mainly in the choroid plexus, a network of capillaries and ependymal cells located within the ventricular system of the brain....

Area of Science:

  • Pediatric Neurology
  • Neuroimaging
  • Cystic Brain Lesions

Background:

  • Intracranial cysts are diverse fluid-filled brain sacs with varying incidences.
  • Growing awareness highlights comorbidities and consequences associated with these cysts.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate cystic findings in pediatric neurology patients.
  • To assess the prevalence and characteristics of intracranial cysts in children.

Main Methods:

  • Retrospective analysis of pediatric patients with intracranial cysts.
  • MRI examinations performed using a pediatric epilepsy protocol (2016-2021).
  • Evaluation of demographic, clinical data, and presenting complaints.

Main Results:

  • 78 pediatric patients with primary intracranial cysts were analyzed.
  • Most common cyst locations: midline (41%), extra-axial (71.8%), supratentorial (78.2%).
  • Arachnoid cysts (64.1%) and pineal cysts (15.4%) were most frequent; seizures (47.4%) and developmental delays (28.2%) were common comorbidities.

Conclusions:

  • Intracranial cysts in children warrant consideration for associated pathologies.
  • Early assessment for developmental delay and neuropsychiatric issues is vital in pediatric patients with intracranial cysts.
