Decrease of excessive daytime sleepiness after shunt treatment for normal pressure hydrocephalus

Journal of Sleep Research, Volume 34, Issue 2, April 2025.
Summary Sleepiness and apathy are often reported in patients with normal pressure hydrocephalus. However, research on outcomes after shunt surgery has mainly focused on the classical triad symptoms, that is, gait, cognition, and bladder dysfunction. This study aimed to describe the effects of shunt treatment on excessive daytime sleepiness and whether ...

Benign external hydrocephalus: a review, with emphasis on management [PDF]

, 2011
Benign external hydrocephalus in infants, characterized by macrocephaly and typical neuroimaging findings, is considered as a self-limiting condition and is therefore rarely treated.

Overnight Dynamics of Ventricular Cerebrospinal Fluid Amyloid‐Beta, Lactate and Hypocretin in Patients With Hydrocephalus: A Pilot Study

Journal of Sleep Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This pilot observational study evaluated whether frequent overnight sampling of ventricular cerebrospinal fluid could clarify how sleep, hypocretin and lactate relate to amyloid‐β42 dynamics in adults with hydrocephalus. Seven participants underwent hourly ventricular cerebrospinal fluid sampling from early evening to late morning during ...

Nonsense mutation in CFAP43 causes normal-pressure hydrocephalus with ciliary abnormalities

Neurology, 2019
Objective To identify genes related to normal-pressure hydrocephalus (NPH) in one Japanese family with several members with NPH. Methods We performed whole-exome sequencing (WES) on a Japanese family with multiple individuals with NPH and identified a ...

Effect of artificial gravity on calcaneal bone marrow adipose tissue and mineral content in female and male participants in 60 days of bed rest

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Modulation of bone marrow adipose tissue (BMAT) with prolonged inactivity was reported in haemopoietic but not in non‐haemopoietic bones. This prospective randomized controlled trial submitted 16 men and 8 women to 60 days of 6° head‐down‐tilt bed rest.

An eye on long‐duration spaceflight: Controversies, countermeasures and challenges

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Space flight‐associated neuroocular syndrome (SANS) is a consequence of long‐duration space flight and is detected in two‐thirds of astronauts. In‐flight, this can cause a change in the refraction of the eyes, requiring graded hypermetropic ‘superfocus adjustable’ glasses, optic nerve head oedema and choroidal folds.

Analysis of postural sway in patients with normal pressure hydrocephalus: effects of shunt implantation

European Journal of Medical Research, 2009
Poor postural balance is one of the major risk factors for falling in normal pressure hydrocephalus (NPH). Postural instability in the clinic is commonly assessed based upon force platform posturography.

Brain strain: Blood flow and metabolism in environmental extremes

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract This narrative review compares and contrasts the most commonly encountered environmental stressors on human cerebrovascular functioning. From high altitude and space, extreme apnoea, heat and cold stress, the impact of these stressors on the regulation of cerebral blood flow (CBF) and oxygen metabolism (CMRO2${\mathrm{CM}}{{\mathrm{R}}_ ...
