Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Rafaela Garcia Pereira"
- Rafaela Garcia Pereira's recent research focuses on the effects of caffeine intoxication, particularly examining its behavioral and electrophysiological patterns in Wistar rats.
- In her 2022 study, Pereira investigated seizure-related behaviors and electrocorticographic (ECoG) responses to a toxic dose of caffeine, comparing these responses to those induced by pentylenetetrazole.
- The research also assessed the effectiveness of various antiepileptic drugs (diazepam, phenytoin, and phenobarbital) in mitigating caffeine-induced convulsions, contributing valuable insights into the neurophysiological effects of caffeine and potential treatment strategies for intoxication.
