Susceptibility to preoperative seizures in glioma patients with elevated homocysteine levels
Objective Seizures are a common clinical presentation in patients with glioma and substantially impact patients' quality of life. Hyperhomocysteinemia is defined as abnormally high serum levels of homocysteine (Hcy) and is reportedly linked to ...

Abstract Background Although not confirmed, some studies have suggested that elevated homocysteine levels are common in patients with Huntington's disease (HD). Its clinical relevance remains unclear. Objectives We aimed to assess vitamin B and homocysteine levels in HD patients and explore the relationships among hyperhomocysteinemia, vitamin B ...

Impact of systemic diseases on periodontal remodeling: Mechanisms, mediators, and clinical relevance
Abstract Background Periodontal remodeling is a continuous, adaptive process essential for maintaining the structural and functional integrity of periodontal tissues. While external factors such as bacterial biofilm, excessive forces, and poor oral hygiene are recognized triggers of periodontal pathologies, they do not fully explain their persistent ...

A 17 Year Old With Developmental Delay Presenting With Increasing Confusion and Imbalance
ABSTRACT Methylmalonic acidemia is an autosomal recessive genetic disorder primarily caused by defects in methylmalonyl‐CoA mutase and cobalamin (vitamin B12) metabolism. These defects disrupt the tricarboxylic acid cycle and oxidative phosphorylation, leading to the abnormal accumulation of metabolic products such as methylmalonic acid, propionic acid,

Roles of Microglia in Cerebral Small Vessel Disease
Chronic cerebral hypoperfusion triggers microglial activation in cerebral small vessel disease (CSVD). Activated microglia drive neuroinflammation, oxidative stress, and blood–brain barrier disruption, leading to white matter hyperintensities, enlarged perivascular spaces, and other neuroimaging features.

Hyperhomocysteinemia and Endothelial Dysfunction [PDF]
Hyperhomocysteinemia (HHcy) is a significant and independent risk factor for cardiovascular diseases. Endothelial dysfunction (ED) is the earliest indicator of atherosclerosis and vascular diseases. We and others have shown that HHcy induced ED in human and in animal models of HHcy induced by either high-methionine load or genetic deficiency.
