Background: Evidence suggests that mild head injuries in humans can result in cumulative damage. No investigation to date has considered the effects of multiple subacute mild head injuries in an animal model. Methods: Forty-one male Long-Evans hooded

Objective: Recent experimental data have shown that dietary soy isoflavones such as genistein can significantly suppress invasiveness and growth of a number of human malignancies. In this study we examined whether genistein, at a concentration typica

Primary germ cell tumors confined to the optic nerves and chiasm without suprasellar extension are uncommon. These tumors appear similar to chiasmatic gliomas on both computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging, potentially resulting in treatm

Primitive neuroectodermal tumors (PNETs) account for one fifth of childhood brain tumors. Although little is known of the pathobiology of this tumor type, there are associations with both genetic syndromes and exposures to specific environmental agen

PULMONARY EMBOLISM (PE) IS a devastating complication in patients with traumatic spinal cord injury (SCI). Prophylactic measures such as venous compression hose or low-dose heparin are only partially protective in reducing the risk of venous thromboe

Chronic meningitis is not a commonly encountered clinical problem in the day-to-day patient care responsibilities of neurosurgeons. It is, however, important for the neurosurgeon to be familiar with the clinical problems, diagnostic challenges, and t
