Seizures and Other Neurological Symptoms Induced by Organophosphates,Including Warfare Nerve Agents [PDF]

, 2012
Acute organophosphate (OP) intoxication is associated with many symptoms and clinical signs, including potentially life-threatening seizures and status epilepticus. Instead of being linked to the direct cholinergic toxidrome, OP-related seizures are more probably linked to the interaction of OPs with acetylcholineindependent neuromodulation pathways ...

Comprehensive examination of resting state fMRI connectomics yields new insights into brain function deficits in Gulf War illness after accounting for heterogeneity in brain impairment across the ill veteran population

NeuroImage: Reports
An estimated 200,000 veterans (up to 32% of those deployed) of the 1991 Gulf War (GW) suffer from GW illness (GWI), an incompletely understood chronic medical condition, characterized by multiple symptoms indicative of brain function deficits in various ...
