encephalomalacia/dopamine

We studied the persistent antegrade memory impairment in a woman whose brain had been surgically impaled, leaving a 1-cm-wide mediobasal tract of encephalomalacia that extended just anterior to the septal nuclei and medial to the nucleus accumbens. In a blinded, controlled, alternating

Repin, a major constituent in extracts of the plant Centaurea repens is thought to be the active principal responsible for the development of equine nigropallidal encephalomalacia (ENE), a fatal Parkinson-like neurodegenerative disorder in horses. Although the exact mechanism by which ingestion of

Prolonged ingestion of Yellow Starthistle (Centaurea solstitialis) and Russian Knapweed (Centaurea repens) by horses has been shown to result in a fatal neurodegenerative disorder called equine nigropallidal encephalomalacia (ENE). Bioassay-guided fractionation of extracts from Centaurea species

Russian knapweed is a perennial weed found in many parts of the world, including southern California. Chronic ingestion of this plant by horses has been reported to cause equine nigropallidal encephalomalacia (ENE), which is associated with a movement disorder simulating Parkinson's disease (PD).

We report here a case of acquired hypopituitarism in a female neonate with Salmonella enteritidis sepsis and cystic encephalomalacia, after prolonged dopamine administration. Severe hyponatremia was suggestive of hypopituitarism development and the later was documented by hormonal status. This is

A 1-year-old female presented with neuroleptic malignant syndrome probably caused by methylphenidate. She had defects in the supratentorial brain including the basal ganglia and the striatum (multicystic encephalomalacia) due to severe perinatal hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy, which was considered
