Operative Neurosurgery

gallstones - created
Non-vertebral causes such as the presence of gallstones should be considered in patients with back pain. Physicians should be aware of atypical manifestations of common diseases, so as to avoid diagnostic delays. Gallbladder disorders should be taken into account in patients with dull, undefined right back pain, despite a normal physical examination. Abdominal ultrasound should […]
back_pain - [Differntial diagnosis]
Back pain Back pain is the second reason responsible for absenteeism from work after the common flux. Back pain is one of humanity's most frequent complaints. Back pain is pain felt in the back that usually originates from the muscles, nerves, bones, joints or other structures in the spine.
antiplatelet
Antiplatelet Drugs that interfere with platelet function can be classified into 3 categories: Those that prevent cardiovascular disease (primary prevention), those that treat an acute disease, and those that treat a chronic disease (secondary prevention) There are both oral (taken by mouth) and intravenous (given through a vein) drugs that inhibit platelet function and are […]

vertebra_lumbar
Vértebra lumbar (Vertebra lumbalis) son los segmentos más macizos de la columna vertebral, tanto más voluminosas son en cuanto más abajo esté situada en la columna lumbar. El disco intervertebral es espeso, ocupando un tercio del cuerpo vertebral, lo que constituye un factor de movilidad. Se caracterizan por la ausencia del foramen transversal —parte de […]
canal_espinal_lumbar
Canal espinal lumbar Conducto formado por la vértebra lumbar y en el que se aloja el saco dural. En los espacios intervertebrales, el canal es protegido posteriormente por el ligamento amarillo y frontalmente por el ligamento vertebral común posterior. La morfología normal del canal raquídeo es redondeado, aunque hay canales en forma de trébol que […]
estenosis_de_canal_lumbar - [Exploración clínica]
Estenosis de canal lumbar La estenosis de canal en la columna lumbar se define como el estrechamiento estructural del canal espinal lumbar, de receso laterales o del agujero de conjunción. Historia A principios del siglo xx se describe por primera vez la relación entre paresia de extremidades inferiores y estrechez de canal espinal lumbar. Igualmente […]

For Women, High Blood Pressure in Your 40s May Be Tied to Increased Risk of Dementia 18 October, 2017
Women who develop high blood pressure in their 40s may be more likely to develop dementia years later, according to a study. “High blood pressure in midlife is a known risk factor for dementia, but these results may help us better understand when this association starts, how changes in blood pressure affect the risk of […]
Study Reveals Staggering Economic Burden of Dementia in Younger People 18 October, 2017
First-of-its-kind Study on Frontotemporal Degeneration Led by FAU You may not have heard of it, but frontotemporal degeneration (FTD) accounts for 20 to 50 percent of dementia cases in people under the age of 65. FTD ravages an individual’s quality of life by dramatically altering their language, personality, behavior, cognition and motor function. But […]
‘Khamisiyah Plume’ Linked to Brain and Memory Effects in Gulf War Vets 17 October, 2017
In previous research, Linda Chao, PhD, and colleagues of San Francisco VA Medical Center reported decreased volume of the hippocampus—a brain area involved in memory processing—in Gulf War veterans exposed to the Khamisiyah plume. In that 1991 event, demolition of an Iraqi munitions depot caused US soldiers to be exposed to low levels of nerve […]
Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation Shown to Reduce Fatigue Associated with Multiple Sclerosis 17 October, 2017
New randomized trial may point to potential treatment option People with multiple sclerosis (MS) who underwent a non-invasive form of electrical brain stimulation experienced significant reductions in fatigue, a common and often debilitating symptom of the disease, according to new research from the Multiple Sclerosis Comprehensive Care Center at NYU Langone Health. When compared to patients […]
Concussion: How the NFL came to shape the issue that plagued it 16 October, 2017
Players kneeling during the national anthem is the most recent NFL controversy, but certainly not the first nor the biggest. Concussion has dogged the NFL since the 1990s, and its initial response––avoidance and superficial gestures to mollify critics––damaged its public image. However, in recent years, the league has repositioned itself as a leader in concussion […]
Transcranial Electrical Stimulation Shows Promise for Treating Mild Traumatic Brain Injury 16 October, 2017
Using a form of low-impulse electrical stimulation to the brain, documented by neuroimaging, researchers at the University of California San Diego School of Medicine, Veterans Affairs San Diego Healthcare System (VASDHS) and collaborators elsewhere, report significantly improved neural function in participants with mild traumatic brain injury (TBI). TBI is a leading cause of sustained physical, […]
Elderly Who Have Trouble Identifying Odors Face Risk of Dementia 13 October, 2017
Smell loss predicts cognitive decline in healthy older people A long-term study of nearly 3,000 adults, aged 57 to 85, found that those who could not identify at least four out of five common odors were more than twice as likely as those with a normal sense of smell to develop dementia within five years. […]
Researchers Uncover Our Brain’s Filing System for Storing Experiences 13 October, 2017
A team of neuroscientists has uncovered how our brains organize, over time, our experiences: that is, according to their similarities. “It is as if in order to make sense of the world, the brain re-organizes individual distinct experiences into information clusters—perhaps signaling the emergence of conceptual knowledge,” observes Lila Davachi, an associate professor in NYU’s […]
That Cup of Coffee May Not Relieve Parkinson’s Symptoms 12 October, 2017
Contrary to previous research, caffeine may not relieve movement symptoms for people with Parkinson’s disease. A previous study suggested that caffeine may help reduce movement symptoms for people with Parkinson’s disease. Because the study was small and only six weeks long, the researchers decided to investigate further. “Caffeine, which is so safe and inexpensive, has been […]
The Rat Race Is Over: New Livestock Model for Stroke Could Speed Discovery 12 October, 2017
It is well-known in the medical field that the pig brain shares certain physiological and anatomical similarities with the human brain. So similar are the two that researchers at the University of Georgia’s Regenerative Bioscience Center have developed the first U.S. pig model for stroke treatments, which will provide essential preclinical data and speed the […]
