Cerebrospinal Fluid Biomarkers in the Evaluation and Treatment of Normal Pressure Hydrocephalus
Normal pressure hydrocephalus (NPH) is characterized by slowly progressive gait disturbance, cognitive impairment and urinary incontinence. It is a well-known potentially reversible cause of dementia by the shunt operation. However, it is not simple to select candidates for the shunt operation due …

Cognition and apathy in normal pressure hydrocephalus
Normal pressure hydrocephalus (NPH) is characterised by a build-up of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) in the brain despite apparently normal CSF pressure at lumbar puncture. In addition to movement and urinary symptoms, patients commonly display cognitive decline and apathy. NPH is recognised as an …

A cost-utility and budget impact analysis of long-acting insulin analogues, (determir, glargine and degludec) for the treatment of adults with T1DM in South Africa
… intermediate-acting Neutral Protamine Hagedorn (NPH) insulin has been the mainstay basal insulin recommended in the public sector. Newer (ultra) long-acting insulin analogues, however, have subsequently been approved for use. Costutility and budget impact analyses of the newer long-acting insulin …

Deletions- und Bruchpunktanalyse mittels Southern-Blot-Verfahren bei Familien mit Nephronophthise Typ 1 (NPH1)
Die Juvenile Nephronophthise (NPH) ist eine autosomal-rezessive zystische Nierenerkrankung, die im Alter von ca. 13 Jahren zu terminalem Nierenversagen führt. Das Gen für Nephronophthise Typ 1 (NPHP1) wurde auf dem Chromosom 2q13 identifiziert. Es besteht aus 20 Exonen. Mehr als 80 der Patienten …

Klonierung und molekulare Charakterisierung von Deletionsbruchpunkten bei juveniler Nephronophthise Typ 1
Die juvenile Nephronophthise (NPH), eine autosomal rezessive, cystische Nierenerkrankung, gilt als häufigste genetische Ursache des terminalen Nierenversagens im Kindesalter. In Vorarbeiten war das Gen NPHP1 für Nephronophthise Typ 1 auf Chromosom 2q13 identifiziert worden, welches sich zwischen …

An investigation of CSF dynamics and biochemical composition in normal pressure hydrocephalus utilizing the phase contrast MRI scanning
Normal pressure hydrocephalus (NPH) is a known cause of dementia. It is the only type of dementia which can be treated surgically by pulling a ventriculo-peritoneal shunt to drain excess cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) from the ventricles of the brain. In addition, it is associated with difficulty in …
