Effects of Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation on Pallidum GABAergic Neurons and Motor Function in Rat Models of Kernicterus [PDF]
Kernicterus is a serious complication of hyperbilirubinemia, caused by neuronal injury due to excessive unconjugated bilirubin (UCB) in specific brain areas.

The Importance of Neuroimaging Follow-Up in Bilirubin-Induced Encephalopathy: A Clinical Case Review [PDF]
Introduction: Hyperbilirubinemia in newborns can lead to kernicterus, a severe form of neonatal encephalopathy caused by bilirubin toxicity. Despite timely interventions such as exchange transfusion, kernicterus can still develop, especially in high-risk

Developmental outcome of severe neonatal indirect hyperbilirubinemia [PDF]
Background: Indirect hyperbilirubinemia is one of the most common causes of hospitalization in the neonatal period and its potential association with brain damage is well established.

Bilirubin-induced neurological damage (BIND), which might progress to kernicterus, occurs as a consequence of defects in the bilirubin conjugation machinery, thus enabling albumin-unbound free bilirubin (BF) to cross the blood–brain barrier and ...

Clinicopathological Spectrum of Bilirubin Encephalopathy/Kernicterus
Bilirubin encephalopathy/kernicterus is relatively rare, but continues to occur despite universal newborn screening. What is more interesting is the spectrum of clinical and even neuropathological findings that have been reported in the literature to be ...

Bilirubin-Induced Transcriptomic Imprinting in Neonatal Hyperbilirubinemia
Recent findings indicated aberrant epigenetic control of the central nervous system (CNS) development in hyperbilirubinemic Gunn rats as an additional cause of cerebellar hypoplasia, the landmark of bilirubin neurotoxicity in rodents.

Genetic Association of UGT1A1 Promoter Variants (c.-3279T>G and c.-3156G>A) with Neonatal Hyperbili-rubinemia in an Iranian Population [PDF]
Background: Several studies have reported that two promoter variants (c.-3279T>G and c.-3156G>A) in UDP-glucuronosyltransferase (UGT1A1) gene may contribute to neonatal hyperbilirubinemia.

Kernicterus is a permanent condition caused by brain damage from bilirubin toxicity. Dystonia is one of the most debilitating symptoms of kernicterus and results from damage to the globus pallidus (GP).
