Central Nervous System and Computation

The Quarterly Review of Biology, 2011
Computational systems are useful in neuroscience in many ways. For instance, they may be used to construct maps of brain structure and activation, or to describe brain processes mathematically. Furthermore, they inspired a powerful theory of brain function, in which the brain is viewed as a system characterized by intrinsic computational activities or ...

Leukemia in the Central Nervous System

Acta Medica Scandinavica, 1988
ABSTRACT The frequency of central nervous system (CNS) leukemia was studied in patients aged 15–59 with acute leukemia, who had received induction treatment in the years 1971–1986. Twelve out of 103 patients with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) developed CNS leukemia in spite of prophylaxis consisting of intrathecal methotrexate.

Eicosanoids in the central nervous system

Journal of Neurosurgery, 1985
✓ All mammalian tissue investigated to date is capable of eicosanoid biosynthesis in response to various activating stimuli. While the importance of these metabolites as major mediators of many normal physiological processes and some pathophysiological conditions has not been proven, it is evident that these compounds are at least important modulators ...

Vasculitis of the Central Nervous System

Seminars in Neurology, 1994
Central nervous system (CNS) vasculitis occurs in a variety of clinical settings. Some exhibit a distinct age preference; others a tissue tropism. Most frequently encountered are giant cell arteritis (temporal arteritis) and vasculitis secondary to infections.

Central nervous system gliomas

Critical Reviews in Oncology/Hematology, 2017
Evidence-based practical guidelines on diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment on the most frequent adult brain tumours are delineated. In Europe, 27,000 new cases of malignant glial tumours and 1000 new cases of malignant ependymal tumours are diagnosed every year. The most common glial tumours are glioblastoma multiforme and anaplastic glioma, comprising

Instability of the central nervous system

Brain Research, 1969
Abstract A short description is presented of an unstable automaton characterized by its ability to switch environments so as to avoid falling into an absorbent (‘harmful’) state. In 2 series of experiments analogies were observed in some features of the functioning of unstable automata and the central nervous system.

Monitoring of the central nervous system

Current Opinion in Anaesthesiology, 1994
Clinical studies have shown a close relationship between variables such as hypoxia, increased intracranial pressure, arterial hypotension, or seizures and neurological outcome. This indicates the need for monitoring techniques of the central nervous system including measurements of cerebral blood flow, cerebral oxygenation and neuronal function ...

Central Nervous System Infections

Pediatric Clinics of North America, 1974
The principles and clinical-anatomic correlations in the appropriate therapy of central nervous system infections are presented in order to aid the physician in the earlier suspicion of central nervous system infection and its differential diagnosis in hopes of quickening the pace of therapeutic intervention.

Central Nervous System Lymphoma

Continuum, 2023
This article reviews the clinical presentation, diagnostic workup, staging, and treatment of primary central nervous system (CNS) lymphoma and common manifestations of secondary CNS lymphoma.Lymphoma can arise in the CNS de novo (primary CNS lymphoma) or as the result of systemic disease (secondary CNS lymphoma).

CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM TUBERCULOSIS

Neurologic Clinics, 1999
Involvement of the central nervous system (CNS) by Mycobacterium tuberculosis, particularly meningitis, is the most severe form of tuberculous infection. Parenchymal CNS involvement can occur in the form of tuberculoma or, more rarely, abscess. Although surgery was initially advocated as the mainstay of therapy, more recent evidence suggests that ...
