The frequencies of specific etiologies of CDI and characteristic magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) findings were determined. The presence of additional hormone deficiencies at diagnosis and later in the disease course was ascertained. Patient characteristics and management strategies were evaluated. Results ...
Patients with SS show gross distortion of the normal pattern of parotid ductules on sialogram, with marked retention of contrast medium. Scintigraphic findings in patients with SS include decreased uptake and release of technetium Tc 99m pertechnetate, with the extent of decrease paralleling the ...
Clinical manifestations of toxoplasmosis in patients with AIDS Brain involvement (ie, toxoplasmic encephalitis), with or without focal CNS lesions, is the most common manifestation of toxoplasmosis in individuals with AIDS. Clinical findings include the following: Altered mental state Seizures Weakness...
Of the 30 patients who had water deprivation test, 25 of them were diagnosed as complete central diabetes insipidus and five as partial central diabetes insipidus. SR-MRI findings and follow-up data For all 159 patients who underwent their initial SR-MRIs at our hospital, we divided them into...
Furthermore, in comparison with the control group in ALA-treated animals the mean diameter of nuclei in AVP positive neurons was greater. While animals treated daily showed an increase of transmission in the pituitary, microdensitometric findings in animals treated at 48 hourly intervals showed an ...
The combination of these strong GWAS findings explains more than 19% of the phenotypic diversity in T2D susceptibility [22]. Another major step in comprehensive coverage of new susceptibility variants for various ethnic groups suffering from diabetes is contributed via the development of databases such...
while differentiating between neurological and environmental influences on human behavior.6Recently, neuropsychology focused on cognitive rehabilitation by utilizing environmental factors and findings from advanced neuroimaging that help understand the function of different brain structures affected by the injury.6...
However, the mesenteric vein obstruction and central diabetes insipidus were very interesting findings, even now. Certainly, the authors seemed to have felt uncomfortable with the diagnosis of this case. That is why it is worth noting that this clinical question was solved 35 years later. ...
Findings on MRI remain key in guiding the diagnosis of pituitary stalk lesions, particularly when used in conjunction with other clinical clues. There are no good imaging predictors for hypopituitarism, making clinical evaluation of all patients with pituitary stalk lesions crucial. Issue Section: Speci...
Recent Findings Although the optimal treatment strategy remains a matter of debate, intracranial germinomas respond well to radiotherapy, chemotherapy, or a combination of both and are characterized by very high cure and survival rates. It is well-known that early discrimination of germinomas from ot...
