Cerebral glucose and lactate consumption during cerebral activation by physical activity in humans

The FASEB Journal, 2011
ABSTRACT At rest, the brain takes up oxygen and carbohydrate at an ~6:1 ratio. Exercise increases systemic lactate availability reducing this to as little as 1.7:1 despite a ~20% increase in cerebral metabolic rate for oxygen (CMR o

Praziquantel (pyrazinoisoquinolone) in active cerebral cysticercosis

Neurosurgery, 1988
A prospective open therapeutic study on volunteers with active neurocysticercosis using pyrazinoisoquinolone (Praziquantel) has shown that it is a safe and effective drug. Objective assessment of the effect of treatment was by high resolution sequential computed tomographic scanning. Sixty-six patients received the drug.

Mapping Cerebral Activity With Deoxyglucose

JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1980
Energy metabolism is closely coupled to functional activity in most tissues, including those of the CNS. Deoxyglucose labeled with carbon 14 can be used to measure rates of glucose use in all anatomic and functional components of the CNS. Using radioautography of serial sections of the brain, pictorial representation of the relative rates of glucose ...

Cerebral vasodilators potentiate the anti-anoxic activity of indeloxazine hydrochloride, a new cerebral activator

Neuropharmacology, 1989
Effects of some cerebrovasodilators on the anti-anoxic activity of indeloxazine hydrochloride [(+/-)-2[(inden-7-yloxy)methyl]morpholine hydrochloride, YM-08054] with cerebral metabolic enhancing activity, were observed in mice. Oral administration of both indeloxazine (10 mg/kg) and each of the cerebral vasodilators, such as nicardipine (10 mg/kg ...

Neuromodulation on Cerebral Activities

2013
During a motor task, a causal relation occurs between the motor command generated in the cortex and the proprioceptive feedbacks that go from the activated muscles through the corticospinal pathway. This causal relation is of interest in neurorehabilitation to improve motor function for people with motor difficulties.

DISTRIBUTION OF CEREBRAL ACTIVITY IN CHRONIC SCHIZOPHRENIA

The Lancet, 1974
Abstract Measurements of regional cerebral blood-flow (R.C.B.F.) show that patients with schizophrenia have normal mean hemisphere flows, but that there is a shift in R.C.B.F. distribution so that high flows were relatively less common in frontal structures and relatively more common in postcentral structures.

Redistribution of cerebral activity during childhood

Brain and Development, 1990
Data on the functional development of brain structures in early childhood are scarce. Cognition changes markedly from pre-school age to school age, and we thought it of interest to examine the level of functional activity of selected brain regions. Nine preschool children were studied and compared with eight school children and eighteen adults.

The Value to the Anaesthetist of Monitoring Cerebral Activity

Methods of Information in Medicine, 1994
Abstract:The administration rate of general anaesthetic drugs is at present guided by clinical experience, and indirect indicators such as haemodynamic parameters. In the presence of muscle relaxants most of the clinical signs of inadequate anaesthesia are lost and accidental awareness may occur.

Cerebral Metabolism and Visualization of Cerebral Activity

1996
The biochemical pathways of energy metabolism in the brain are in most respects the same as those in other tissues, but special conditions peculiar to the central nervous system in vivo limit their full expression. For example, in many tissues the results of in vitro experiments are almost directly transferable to in vivo conditions, and, indeed, in ...

Neuropeptides and cerebral electric activity in rabbits

Peptides, 1982
The effects of some neuropeptides infused into the cerebral ventricles on the spontaneous cerebral electric activity were studied in unanasthetized rabbits. The following peptides were investigated: physalaemin, caerulein, bombesin, litorin (supplied by Farmitalia).
