The impact of multiple sclerosis on the size and morphology of corpus callosum: an MRI-based retrospective study

Int. j. morphol; 41 (2), 2023
SUMMARY: The corpus callosum (CC) includes the majority of fibers linking the two brain hemispheres. Several cross sectional studies showed an association between callosal atrophy and malfunction and neurodegenerative diseases, which may play a role in their pathological manifestations. As a result, the ...

Fetal akinesia deformation sequence with pontocerebellar hypoplasia, and migration and gyration defects

Autops. Case Rep; 11 (), 2021
Fetal akinesia deformation sequence (FADS), or Pena-Shokeir phenotype is a constellation of deformational changes resulting from decreased or absent fetal movement, and include arthrogryposis, and craniofacial and central nervous system anomalies. We report an autopsy case of a 36-6/7week female neonate ...

Hereditary spastic paraplegia: a clinical and epidemiological study of a Brazilian pediatric population

White matter volume is decreased in bipolar disorder at early and late stages

Abstract Introduction: Bipolar disorder (BD) is a debilitating mood condition that affects approximately 1.3% of people worldwide, although some studies report up to 3.9% lifetime prevalence and 4-6% in adults when broad diagnostic criteria are applied. Objective: To compare differences in total white ...

Diffusion tensor imaging of brain white matter in Huntington gene mutation individuals

Arq. neuropsiquiatr; 75 (8), 2017
ABSTRACT Objective To evaluate the role of the involvement of white matter tracts in huntingtin gene mutation patients as a potential biomarker of the progression of the disease. Methods We evaluated 34 participants (11 symptomatic huntingtin gene mutation, 12 presymptomatic huntingtin gene mutation,...

Assessment transcallosal Diaschisis in a model of focal cerebral ischemia in rats

Colomb. med; 47 (2), 2016
Objective: To evaluate transcallosal changes after a local ischemic injury in rats by using the monoclonal marker anti-NeuN (Mouse anti-neuronal nuclei). Methods: Twenty eight adult, male, Wistar rats were subjected to focal injury in the right hemisphere. The technique used was the experimental model of...

Efecto de la Desnutrición Oculta Prenatal Sobre la Histología del Esplenio Callosal

Int. j. morphol; 25 (4), 2007
Ratas malnutridas prenatalmente con una dieta isocalórica y baja en proteínas, presentaron un menor diámetro axonal promedio en el esplenio callosal que los animales control, tanto de las fibras mielínicas como amielínicas. También se observó una mayor densidad axonal promedio, con respecto a los ...
