Men from a working population of black gold-miners were studied prospectively during an 8-month period to determine the incidence and aetiology of seizures in this population. Computed tomography (CT) of the brain was the primary investigation. From the total population of 97,000, 175 men with
Severe and complicated malaria is a fatal from a human Plasmodium falciparum infection. In clinical practice cerebral malaria in children, with unrousable coma, hyperthermia, generalized convulsions, frequently hypoglycemia, is different of severe in non immunized adults resulting in multiple organ
One hundred and fifty-eight epileptic patients belonging to the Nguni tribe in Transkei were interviewed and examined; electro- encephalograms (EEGs) were recorded in 104. Partial epilepsy with secondary generalized seizures was diagnosed in 59%. Head trauma appeared to be the main aetiological
We present the clinical cases of two black patients from the Cabo Verde Islands, in whom Painful Tonic Seizures have been witnessed. In both cases the diagnosis of multiple would be certainly established and Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) disclosed the cervical spinal cord lesions that,
Carbon black nanoparticles (CBNPs) can enter the central nervous system through blood circulation and olfactory nerves, affecting brain development or increasing neurological disease susceptibility. However, whether CBNPs exposure affects seizure is unclear. Herein, mice were exposed to two
The incidence of seizures increases with old age. Stroke, dementia and brain tumors are recognized risk factors for new-onset seizures in the aging populations and the incidence of these conditions also increased with age. Whether aging is associated with higher seizure susceptibility in the absence
Black henbane (BH) or Hyoscyamus niger, has been used as a medicine since last centuries and has been described in all traditional medicines. It applies as a herbal medicine, but may induce intoxication accidentally or intentionally. All part of BH including leaves, seeds and roots contain some
Effects of a static magnetic field (SMF) with strong gradient components were studied in black Swiss mice. Exposure to SMF (100-220 mT, 15-40 T/m for 1h) did not affect the threshold for detecting auditory brainstem responses. Serial seizures elevated the hearing threshold at some frequencies, but
BACKGROUND
Despite the availability and use of numerous antiepileptic drugs (AEDs), nearly 15% of childhood epilepsy cases are resistant to treatment. However, in traditional medicine, Nigella Sativa L. ("black cumin seed") has been known for its anticonvulsant effects. This plant is naturally
Tea is the most widely used ancient beverage in the world and black tea possesses many biological effects on the organisms. It acts as an effective antioxidant because of its free radical-scavenging and metal-chelating ability. Due to this, it is active against inflammation, clastogenesis, and
The present study tested the hypothesis that the stigma of being disabled and that of minority ethnic status yield more negative psychosocial outcomes for black than white persons with epilepsy. Black (n=55) and white (n=53) urban participants from a larger sample were matched for socioeconomic
We examined brain injury and seizures in adult C57 black mice (C57/BL6) that underwent neonatal hypoxic-ischemic (HI) episodes. Mouse pups of 7 days-old underwent a ligation of the right common carotid artery and a subsequent hypoxic challenge (8% O2 for 45min). Post-HI mice were implanted with
The effects of the opiate antagonist, naloxone, on seizure tendencies of the black or nonagouti line of Mongolian gerbils (Meriones unguiculatus) carrying the a/a coat color allele was investigated. The animals were tested under the following conditions: mock infection; 0.9% NaCl injection; and
