Significance of Cortical Micro-Infarcts in the Human Brain | Stephy Publishers

 


Innovative Journal of Neurology and Neuroscience - (IJNN) | Stephy publishers

Abstract:
Cortical micro-infarcts are due to cerebral small vessel disease. In contrast to the arteriosclerotic type of cerebral small vessel disease, cortical micro-infarcts are mainly related and due to cerebral amyloid angiopathy. Alzheimer’s disease is the most frequent neurodegenerative dementia disease associated to cerebral amyloid angiopathy and cortical micro-infarcts. Vascular dementia cannot only be due to lacunar infarcts and ischemic white matter changes, but can also be caused by cortical micro-infarcts. The latter are a frequent cause of vascular dementia and decrease globally the cerebral blood flow.
Keywords: Cortical micro-infarcts, Cerebral amyloid angiopathy, Cerebral small vessel disease, Alzheimer’s disease, Frontotemporal lobar degeneration, Lewy body disease, Progressive supranuclear palsy, Vascular dementia.

 Resilience, Risk-Taking Behavior and Aggression among Female Volleyball Players – a Preliminary Study The aim of the current study is to investigate the level of risk-taking behavior, resilience and aggression in female volleyball players and the link between these psychological variables and coach’s performance ranking. A Romanian volleyball team ranked 7th out of 11 in the A1 league in the national championship (2022-2023 period) participated at the study. The Romanian adaptation of the Brief Resilience Scale, The Romanian adaptation of Makarowski’s Stimulating and Instrumental Risk Questionnaire, The Romanian adaptation of Makarowski's Aggression Questionnaire and Delphi method (evaluation of female volleyball players by coaches) were used. Analysis of the results reveals that athletes have a low level of perseverance (Go-Ahead factor), a low level of Foul play and a moderate to low level of assertiveness. Also, most athletes registered average or even low levels of resilience

 Chemo stratigraphic Profile of a Reservoir in Well “X” of Field “Y” Offshore Southern Gabon - Stephy Publishers In a bid to evaluate the elemental and mineralogical content of reservoir samples from the “X” well in the “Y” oil field offshore Southern Gabon, analyses were performed using XRD and XRF. The log view profile of the result inferred that Na, Mg, and Calcite were absent in the shallower series of the reservoir sandstones studied, this observation implies that they are soluble ions that had eroded and refer to warm and humid paleoclimate and a depositional environment that is arid, which corresponds to the continental crust as their source. The plot of Ti and FeO+Mg discriminate the deeper series of the reservoir sandstone samples from the shallower samples. The lower series showed heavier values which implies their origin from Oceanic Crust. These are also the pre-salt facies while the shallower series were more of continental origin and represent the post-salt facies. https:
