The ASPECT Hydrocephalus System: a non-hierarchical descriptive system for clinical use.

In patients with hydrocephalus, prognosis and intervention are based on multiple factors. This includes, but is not limited to, time of onset, patient age, treatment history, and obstruction of cerebrospinal fluid flow. Consequently, several distinct hydrocephalus classification systems exist.

Investigation of distinct molecular pathways in migraine induction using calcitonin gene-related peptide and sildenafil.

Objective: Migraine displays clinical heterogeneity of attack features and attack triggers. The question is whether this heterogeneity is explained by distinct intracellular signaling pathways leading to attacks with distinct clinical features. One well-known migraine-inducing pathway is mediated by cyclic adenosine monophosphate and another by cyclic guanosine monophosphate.
