or "water on the brain," the leading cause of brain surgery for children in the United States. Researchers studied the shunt systems under a variety of conditions
The brain depends on the rapid turnover and constant circulation of CSF to maintain intracranial pressure; water entry to the brain or water exit from the brain should be regulated to prevent brain edema; a continuous clearance of K+released duringneuronal activityis necessary. Thechoroid plexus(...
