Chronic electrical stimulation reverses deafness-related depression of electrically evoked 2-deoxyglucose activity in the guinea pig inferior colliculus
(Elsevier, 1993-11)
The [14C]-2-deoxyglucose (2-DG) autoradiographic technique was used to study how auditory-related metabolic activity changes with deafness, and how chronic electrical stimulation of the deafened system may modify these ...
Preferential loss of striato-external pallidal projection neurons in presymptomatic Huntington's disease
(Wiley Subscription Services, Inc., A Wiley Company, 1992-04)
We have reported previously that striatal projection neurons are differentially affected in the course of Huntington's disease, and in a prior patient report we noted that differential loss of striatal projection neurons ...
Sequential electrodiagnostic abnormalities in acute inflammatory demyelinating polyradiculoneuropathy
(Wiley Subscription Services, Inc., A Wiley Company, 1985-07)
We reviewed 180 electroneuromyographic (EMG) studies from patients with acute inflammatory demyelinating polyradiculoneuropathy. EMG criteria suggestive of demyelination were met during the first 5 weeks in 87% of patients; ...
Gene expression of the insulin-like growth factors and their receptors in cultured human retinal pigment epithelial cells
(Elsevier, 1992-01)
Insulin-like growth factors I and II (IGF I and II) are polypeptides with both growth-promoting and insulin-like metabolic effects16,27. Immunoreactive IGF I is present in the retina14 and both IGF I and II are present in ...
Further localization of a gene for paroxysmal dystonic choreoathetosis to a 5-cM region on chromosome 2q34
(Springer-Verlag; Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg, 1998-01)
Paroxysmal dystonic choreoathetosis (PDC) is a rare neurological disorder characterized by episodes of involuntary movement, involving the extremities and face, which may occur spontaneously or be precipitated by caffeine, ...
Mechanisms and functional significance of aberrant seizure-induced hippocampal neurogenesis
(Blackwell Publishing Inc, 2008-06)
Studies of experimental mesial temporal lobe epilepsy (mTLE) indicate that prolonged seizures in the adult not only damage the hippocampal formation but also dramatically stimulate neurogenesis. Endogenous neural progenitor ...

(Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2009-09)
Real-Time Identification of Serious Infection in Geriatric Patients Using Clinical Information System Surveillance
(Blackwell Publishing Inc, 2009-01)
To develop and characterize an automated syndromic surveillance mechanism for early identification of older emergency department (ED) patients with possible life-threatening infection. DESIGN : Prospective, consecutive-enrollment, ...
