The variety of clinical symptoms of hydrocephalus due to obstruction at the level of the posterior cranial fossa cisterns, or extraventricular obstructive hydrocephalus (EVOH), frequently goes against radiological semiotics and causes difficulties in developing patient management tactics.Materials and methods. Analysis of 65 patients treated for idiopathic hydrocephalus due to cisternal CSF pathways obstruction at the FSAI N. N. Burdenko National Medical Research Center of Neurosurgery of the Ministry of Health of Russia. All symptoms the patients complained of, which could be caused by hydrocephalus, were evaluated. Results. Extraventricular obstructive hydrocephalus has a longer history of illness compared to other forms of hydrocephalus and averages almost 4 years. The most common symptoms of the onset of the disease are headaches (41.5 %) and gait disturbances (29.2 %). When diagnosing, the main symptoms of the disease are gait disturbances (76.9 %), memory loss in relation to current events (76.9 %), headache (63 %), and pelvic disorders in the form of incontinence (46.1 %). Dizziness, nausea, arm tremor, amenorrhea, vomiting, pyramidal symptoms, and syncope are significantly less common. The clinical picture of patients under 60 years is characterized by common cerebral symptoms and mild signs of the Hakim-Adams syndrome. However, there is a different dependence for elderly patients. Endoscopic or shunt surgery can help to achieve complete or partial recovery. Conclusion. Thus, the EVOH clinical picture is diverse and often has completely non-specific manifestations, which match the anatomical changes in different brain structures according to MRI, but the sequence of occurrence of some symptoms is not explained. Each of the EVOH clinical manifestations, individual or in combination with other symptoms, should be considered as an indication for surgical treatment.","PeriodicalId":447580,"journal":{"name":"Vestnik nevrologii, psihiatrii i nejrohirurgii (Bulletin of Neurology, Psychiatry and Neurosurgery)","volume":"28 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139232843","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}

Methamphetamine negatively affects microglia, reducing the reuptake of dopamine, which leads to neurotoxicity and an increase in brain temperature. In order to monitor the dynamics of the cerebral temperature, radiothermographs that register the thermal radiation of the deep tissues of the head (MR thermometry) can be used. The purpose of the research: to study the temperature balance of the brain in acute methamphetamine poisoning.Materials and methods. All groups consisted of dextral (right-handed) males. The control group (group I) included 30 volunteers who did not use psychoactive substances (aged 27 [23–36] years). Group II comprised volunteers (n = 15) with acute methamphetamine poisoning (aged 32 [24–40] years), who had their cerebral temperature measured in dynamics until their condition stabilized. In group II patients, MR thermometry was performed during the first 2 hours from the moment of poisoning and on the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th, and 7th day after admission to the hospital. Results. In the addicted participants without intoxication, the MR temperature of the left hemisphere is statistically significantly higher by 0.4°C [95 % CI 0.3–0.6 (p <0.001)], and of the right hemisphere — by 0.3°C [95 % CI 0.3–0.4 (p <0.001)] compared with that of the participants without addiction. When comparing the coefficient of variation of cerebral temperature in general in group II at rest, there is a statistically significant increase of 1.52 % (95 % CI 0.99–1.62, p = 0.006), followed by a return to almost normal after methamphetamine use [1.36 % (1.36–2.22) (p = 0.508)]. During intoxication, the hemispheres warm up by 0.7 °C [95 % CI 0.7; 0.7 (p < 0.001)]. Meanwhile, the temperature variation coefficient in group II does not show a statistically significant difference from the temperature variation coefficient of healthy individuals. Conclusion. Our results are confirmed by the data obtained by psychiatrists and neurophysiologists investigating the effect of methamphetamine on the brain both organically and functionally. The obtained data make it possible to use MR thermometry as a method of rapid and additional diagnosis of brain conditions manifested by psychomotor changes associated with the use of methamphetamine.","PeriodicalId":447580,"journal":{"name":"Vestnik nevrologii, psihiatrii i nejrohirurgii (Bulletin of Neurology, Psychiatry and Neurosurgery)","volume":"231 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139229243","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}

This study presents the information from the most relevant literature sources in order to demonstrate the common risk factors for this disease, the main pathophysiological mechanisms of its occurrence, as well as possible ways of non-medication therapy for primary dysmenorrhea, due to the fact that this disease should be approached comprehensively, involving other specialists, such as neurologists, physiotherapists, and specialists in therapeutic exercise, in addition to gynecologists.

On the basis of the Psychiatric Clinical Hospital No. 1 named after N. A. Alekseev, 131 patients diagnosed with anorexia nervosa and bulimia nervosa were examined. In the course of the study, the Young Schema Questionnaire (YSQ-S3R) was utilized. Non-adaptive schemas were identified in the domain «disconnection and rejection» in all patients with eating disorders. In the patients with bulimia nervosa, the early schemas in the impaired autonomy domain were most pronounced, in contrast to the patients with anorexia nervosa. The schema of insufficient self-control in the impaired limits domain was also detected in these patients, while in the patients with anorexia nervosa, this indicator was not manifested. The hypervigilance and inhibition domain was manifested by maladaptive schemas in both groups, with the negativity schema expressed in patients with bulimia nervosa. The domain of focus on others is characteristic of all patients with eating disorders. A comparative analysis of the indicators of early maladaptive schemas in patients with anorexia nervosa and bulimia nervosa and the results of a group of healthy people was carried out.

However, the diagnostic criteria for ASD require the assessment of certain psychomotor skills in a child, which mature much later than necessary for timely diagnosis, so quite often the final diagnosis is made only by 5–7 years. New clinical guidelines suggest that primary screening should be performed by a pediatrician, but practice shows that this does not happen in reality. The reasons for this are not only the contradictions in the diagnostic criteria, but also the current ICD-10 classification, which does not fully reflect the pathogenetic processes in the child's body. In the meantime, new clinical guidelines recognize the role of genetic disorders and epigenetic factors in the development of autism spectrum disorders. Currently, there are more than 100 genes associated with ASD. That is why autism spectrum disorders must be considered from the point of view of pathogenetic changes in the child's body, in many cases of a hereditary nature, which will allow offering timely and effective methods of diagnosis,treatment, and correction.","PeriodicalId":447580,"journal":{"name":"Vestnik nevrologii, psihiatrii i nejrohirurgii (Bulletin of Neurology, Psychiatry and Neurosurgery)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-08-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130950249","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}
