Four growth studies were conducted to determine the signs, biochemical indices and histopathology of a thiamin deficiency and the thiamin requirement of young rainbow trout reared at 15°C on a semi-purified test diet. The major overt signs of a thiamin deficiency in rainbow trout are predominantly
The effect of pyrithiamin on thiamin deficient mice was studied clinically and pathologically. Thiamin deficiency was produced in the mice fed with a thiamin deficient diet by a single injection of pyrithiamin (10 mg/kg, s.c.) on day 0 to produce a mild illness and on day 14 to produce a severe
We reviewed the medical records of all patients with confirmed mitochondrial diseases treated with any or all of thiamin, riboflavin, coenzyme Q, vitamin C (approximately 10 mg/kg per day) and a high-fat diet (50-60% of caloric intake) between 1997 and 2003. There were 15 patients (9 male): 10 had
OBJECTIVE
Prevalence of alcohol dependence remains stable across time between 5-7% in men and 2-3% in women, corresponding to at least 1.5 million patients in France. A review about alcohol dependence is warranted, not only as prevalence of this disease is high, but also because of recent
Marchiafava-Bignami disease (MBD) is caused by damage of the corpus callosum. There are acute, subacute and chronic forms, it occurs most frequently among alcoholic patients. A variety of neurological symptoms, epileptic seizures, and coma may be associated with the disease, but the chronic form may
Aim: To present seven new genetically confirmed cases of biotin-thiamin-responsive basal ganglia disease (BTBGD) with different clinical and brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) characteristics.
BACKGROUND
Severe amitriptyline toxicity may cause cardiac dysrhythmias, severe hypotension, convulsions and CNS depression, including coma. Management with gastric lavage, activated charcoal, alkalinization and supportive care with mechanical ventilation, antiarrhythmics and anticonvulsants, if
In the 1930s, Rudolf Peters showed that young rats kept on a semi-synthetic diet with added thiamin and riboflavin but no other supplement developed 'rat acrodynia', a condition characterized by severe cutaneous lesions. In 1934, Paul György showed that the factor which cured 'rat acrodynia' was
Introduction: Uremic syndrome of chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a term used to describe clinical, metabolic, and hormonal abnormalities associated with progressive kidney failure. It is a rapidly growing public health problem worldwide. Nervous system complications occur in every patient
