The objective of this work was to establish fixed effects models to explain the influence of diffuse variables in the formation of intellectual capital, considering contextual, educational, academic and professional variables. A retrospective study was conducted with literature from 2019 to 2021, as well as an exploratory study with variables that have been conceptualized, but not empirically tested and correlational with an intentional selection of six studies that used diffuse variables to explain attrition. The results show that the model with the greatest adjustment is the one where the emergence of anti-plagiarism software and new editorial provisions explain the dropout, although the research design limited the results to the study scenario, suggesting its extension and sophistication with other statistical techniques.","PeriodicalId":168335,"journal":{"name":"New Advances in Brain & Critical Care","volume":"8 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-01-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121077154","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Methods: The spinal dorsal horn was examined before and after electrical stimulation. The hippocampal CA1 region, the anterior of cerebral cortex and the spinal dorsal horn were subjected to formaldehyde treatment. Immunohistochemistry and western blot were used to analyze the number of FOS protein positive cells in the spinal dorsal horn the hippocampal CA1 region and the anterior cortex of the brain. Results: The sciatic nerve performance of neonatal and juvenile rats was compared with that of adult rats under the same noxious stimulating condition (by strong electrical stimulation). Immunohistochemistry and western blot analysis revealed that LTP and FOS protein were more prominent, but after the application of ifenprodil, these proteins were significantly inhibited. Conclusions: Reducing the stress response induced by peripheral nociceptive stimulation in neonatal and juvenile rats also inhibits the NR2B subunit in NMDA receptors.","PeriodicalId":168335,"journal":{"name":"New Advances in Brain & Critical Care","volume":"26 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-12-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116432667","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Age is its most common risk factor and predictor for idiopathic PD. This paper reviews these relationships. Background: MIP may result from a trigger evoking subclinical idiopathic PD and idiopathic PD may represent an expression of aging. Discussion: Aging may play a substantive role in the pathogenesis of idiopathic PD, involving nondopaminergic structures, causing a cascade of stressors within the substantia nigra, reducing capacity to respond to insults. Mitochondrial dysfunction and altered protein degradation may be more detrimental to these neurons than elsewhere within the brain. The neurons, degenerating in idiopathic PD, are the same as in aging. Despite epidemiology identifying aging, as the PD risk factor, biological correlates remain elusive. Midbrain dopamine neurons, from aging nonhuman primates, show markers of known correlates of dopamine neuron degeneration, found in PD. Pang et al claim most octogenarian do not have PD, challenging age in its aetiology. Idiopathic PD remains a clinical diagnosis, questioning how detailed was their physical examination. Raghunathan et al evaluated glycosaminoglycans and proteins in PD brains, compared with controls, finding idiopathic PD differed from controls, casting doubt that PD is an expression of aging. Environmental or genetic factors may be important but age remains pivotal with treatment started as soon as the diagnosis of PD is made. Conclusions: Age is more relevant to the prognosis of idiopathic PD than is disease duration. MIP may result from a trigger allowing the expression of pre-existing idiopathic PD, requiring treatment and further investigation.","PeriodicalId":168335,"journal":{"name":"New Advances in Brain & Critical Care","volume":"11 3","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-12-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131747523","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Early detection of intracranial changes and its consequences will enhance timely intervention and better out come. Cranial sonography can be done to assess the abnormalities of brain in perinatal asphyxia. Objectives: The objective of this study was to evaluate usefulness of assessment of Hypoxic Ischemic Changes in perinatal asphyxia of first Ultasonogram of Brain. Methods: This was an observational study conducted from March 2018 to February 2019 at department of radiology and imaging, Dhaka Shishu Children Hospital, Dhaka, Bangladesh. Total 100 neonates with perinatal asphyxia were included in this study. Cranial USG was done in all cases and sonographic abnormalities were evaluated. Result: This study was 56 term (>37 weeks of gestation) and 44 preterm (<37 weeks of gestation) newborn having birth asphyxia were taken as cases in this study. Common cranial sonographic findings of preterm babies were periventricular leukomalacia 29% (13), germinal matrix hemorrhage 14% (6), Intraventricular hemorrhage 11% (5) cerebral oedema 7% (3) and normal 39% (17). Common cranial USG findings in term babies were cerebral oedema 43% (24), intracerebral hemorrhage 5% (3), Focal cerebral infarct 4% (2), Intraventricular hemorrhage 2% (1) and normal 46% (26). Conclusion: This study found that transcranial sonography is useful to identify the abnormalities in brain of asphyxiated neonate and helps to predict the neurodevelopmental outcome.
