Résumé
Gray matter heterotopias,which can be classified into subependymal heterotopia,subcortical heterotopia,band heterotopia and mixed heterotopia,belongs to neuronal migration disorders.Any factors including physical or chemical factors,biological factors and genetical factors that occur during neuronal migration phase can lead to gray matter heterotopias.The latest studies have revealed many genes are involved in the pathogenesis of gray matter heterotopias,especially in subependymal heterotopia and band heterotopia with their own characteristics.The main clinical disorders in pediatric heterotopias include developmental delay,epilepsy and motor disturbance.The diagnosis of the disease is made through neuroimaging examinations especially magnetic resonance imagings.The advanced magnetic techniques like magnetic resonance spectroscopy and functional magnetic resonance can be helpful in the final diagnosis.
Résumé
Kawasaki disease ( KD) is an acute febrile systemic vasculitic syndrome. Since there is no specific diagnostic test for KD, the diagnosis is mainly based on the clinical menifetations according to the criterias and excluding of other diseases. Recently the value of plasma brain natriuretic peptide ( BNP) in the diagnosis of KD has been paid more attention gradually. The plasma NT-proBNP level is significantly elevated in KD patients in the acute phase. It is of some specificity and sensitivity, and it may due to the local myocardial inflammation, cytokines and diastolic function of left ventricular. This review summarizes the mechanisms by which the elevated levels of plasma NT-proBNP occur in the acute phase of KD.
Résumé
The incident of colorectal cancer are closely related to factors such as genetics, life styles, dietary patterns, external environment, enteral environment, and exercise. Epidemiological studies of geographic regions with different eating habits have shown that the incidence of CRC varies as diets change. Further studies are needed to investigate the underlying mechanisms
