Atherosclerosis is a common disease whose complications, such as myocardial infarction, are a leading cause of mortality worldwide. Therefore, ideas which try to explain the circumstances of atherosclerotic plaque initiation and progression are warranted. We hypothesize that low-grade inflammation
Cardiovascular diseases are extremely widespread and often cause vestibular system dysfunctions. They are related mainly to organic lesions of the brain. To investigate neurootological functional changes, we compared two samples from among our patients, of whom those in group A (42 persons: 92.86%
We describe MR imaging of bilateral infarction of the paramedian portion of the mesencephalus and thalamus due to an occlusion of the Percheron artery. This entity is due to one of the anatomic variants of the perforating arteries supplying the thalamus and mesenchephalus. Clinically this kind of
We report a rare case with multiple renal infarction associated with lupus anticoagulant and SLE. A 20-year old woman presented with remitent fever, butterfly rash and, abdominal pain. Laboratory findings showed leukopenia, positive antinuclear and anti-DNA antibodies, and biological false positive
We reported the first Japanese case of bilateral paramedian thalamic infarction associated with prominent Korsakoff's syndrome. 53-year-old man suffered from semicoma on the morning of September 16th, 1988. After recovery of consciousness disturbance, neurological examination revealed vertical eye
Bupivacaine is widely used as a local anesthetic. Central nervous system (CNS) and cardiovascular toxicity are well known side effects. However, there has been no report of bupivacaine-induced myocardial injury. We present a case of bupivacaine cardiac toxicity mimicking an acute non-ST segment
Three cases of "Top of the basilar" syndrome are reported. The clinical manifestations included the consciousness disturbance, pupillary and oculomotor abnormalities. One of the 3 cases got cortical blindness. It is emphasized that the possibility of the TOB syndrome should be considered when
The paramedian thalamus is believed to play an important role in the regulation of sleep, and disturbances of sleep regulation are known to occur in paramedian thalamic stroke (PTS). We examined 12 consecutive patients with PTS and sleep disturbance by MRI. Two distinct groups of patients could be
This study investigated the motor control pathway using both functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) and transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) in a patient with left hemiparesis with an infarction on the posterior limb of the right internal capsule. fMRI was performed using the blood oxygen
According to the past reports, neuropsychiatric manifestations have been seen in 10-75% of patients with systemic lupus erythematosus and are second only to renal involvement as a cause of death. The clinical feature is multiple. And cerebrovascular diseases due to systemic lupus erythematosus are
The occurrence of air embolism in supine position operation is extremely rare. We reported a case of air embolism during the operation of a ruptured middle cerebral artery aneurysm in supine position. A 58-year-old woman was admitted to our hospital in semicomatous state. A CT scan revealed diffuse
BACKGROUND
Studies on selected patients undergoing off-pump versus on-pump coronary artery bypass surgery have produced inconsistent results, especially in patients with multiple coronary artery disease. This study compared the clinical results of on-pump and off-pump coronary bypass surgery in
