Experimental findings have suggested the possibility of a functional relationship between the basal ganglia and the hippocampus. Previous research has revealed a predominantly inhibitory action of the caudate nucleus (CN) and an excitatory effect of the globus pallidus (GP) on electrically induced hippocampal afterdischarges (HAD). The effects of electrolytic destruction of the CN on the threshold and duration of HAD has been studied in the 'encéphale isolé' cat. The threshold and duration of HAD was also studied following conditioning stimulation of the CN in animals in which the inner segment of the globus pallidus (GPi) and medial septal nucleus (MSN) had been destroyed. Following CN lesions, the hippocampal excitability threshold underwent a significant reduction, while the duration of HAD appeared to be increased. Following destruction of the GPi and MSN, the threshold and duration of HAD exhibited no change following conditioning stimulation of the CN. The results reveal a tonic inhibitory effect of the CN on the hippocampus and suggest that a strio-pallido-septal pathway is the anatomical substrate for the effect.

Background: There is indication that the fallopian tubes might be involved in ovarian cancer pathogenesis and their removal reduces cancer risk. Hence, bilateral salpingectomy during hysterectomy or sterilization, so called opportunistic salpingectomy (OS), is gaining wide acceptance as a preventive strategy. Recently, it was discussed whether implementation of OS at other gynecologic surgery, e.

Introduction: Distal arterial occlusions can cause measurable changes in the flow wave profile in proximal segments of the feeding artery. Our objective was to study the diagnostic accuracy of point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS) of the common carotid arteries (CCA) for detection of anterior circulation large vessel occlusion (ac-LVO) in patients with suspected stroke.
Patients And Methods: We conducted a prospective, single-center, observational study of adult patients with suspected stroke admitted in the emergency department.

is a ubiquitous organism classified as a nontuberculous mycobacterium that rarely causes indolent skin or soft-tissue infections, especially in immunocompromised patients. Given the rarity of infection, diagnosis can be difficult because cutaneous lesions may be considered a worsening of the underlying disease or a benign condition. Here, we report a case of a rapidly progressing cutaneous infection in a patient with nephrotic syndrome.

The citrus pest Cacopsylla citrisuga (Yang & Li), a vector for Citrus Huanglongbing (HLB), exhibits distinct sensitivity to temperature variations. This study utilized an age-stage, 2-sex life table to evaluate the development and reproduction of C. citrisuga across 5 temperatures (17, 20, 25, 28, and 31 °C).
