Abstract Background Recent studies have reported that Heart Rate Variability (HRV) indices remain reliable even during recordings shorter than 5 min, suggesting the ultra‐short recording method as a valuable tool for autonomic assessment. However, minimum time‐epoch to obtain record all HRV domains (time, frequency, and Poincare geometric measures), well effect of respiratory rate on reliability these remains unknown. Methods Twenty volunteers had their recorded in seated position...
Glucose transporter type 1 deficiency syndrome (GLUT1-DS) is a rare inborn disorder of metabolism leading to encephalopathy due disturbed glucose transport via the blood-brain-barrier and consecutive energy deficit brain. Since ketone bodies can serve as an alternative fuel for brain, ketogenic diet therapies (KDT) are treatment choice these patients. KDT refers all forms nutrition that lead formation bodies. We describe 15-year-old girl with GLUT1-DS who was effectively treated form KDT,...
(1) Objectives: Epilepsy disorder is likely to increase with aging, leading an increased incidence of comorbidities and mortality. In spite that, there a lack information regarding this issue little knowledge cognitive emotional responses in aging subjects following epileptogenesis. We investigated whether how distress epilepsy-related behavioral biochemical outcomes are associated cognition emotion. (2) Methods: Young middle-aged Wistar rats (3 or 12 months old) were treated...
Abstract Glucocorticoids (GC) released during stress response exert feedforward effects in the whole brain, but particularly limbic circuits that modulates cognition, emotion and behavior. GC are most commonly prescribed anti-inflammatory immunosuppressant medication worldwide pharmacological treatment has been paralleled by high incidence of acute chronic neuropsychiatric side effects, which reinforces brain sensitivity for GC. Synapses can be bi-directionally modifiable via potentiation...

Statins are inhibitors of the 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-coenzyme A (HMG-CoA) reductase, thereby inhibiting cell synthesis cholesterol and isoprenoids. Moreover, several studies have been evaluating pleiotropic effects statins, mainly because they present neuroprotective in various pathological conditions. However, knowledge about behavioral statins per se is relatively scarce. Considering these facts, we aimed to analyze responses atorvastatin or simvastatin-treated mice open field test,...
Extensive evidence indicates the influence of cholinergic system on emotional processing. Previous findings provided new insights into underlying mechanisms long-term anxiety, showing that rats injected with a single systemic dose pilocarpine—a muscarinic receptor (mAChR) agonist—displayed persistent anxiogenic-like responses when evaluated in different behavioral tests and time-points (24 h up to 3 months later). Herein, we investigated whether pilocarpine-induced anxiogenesis modulates HPA...
Existem diversas evidências a respeito dos potencial terapêutico dois compostos majoritários presentes nas plantas do gênero Cannabis – canabidiol e Δ-9-tetraidrocanabinol especialmente em relação à sua relevância clínica no tratamento da epilepsia. Anedoticamente, extratos padronizados com alto teor de tem se mostrado eficaz na redução frequência severidade das convulsões, particularmente crianças tipos raros epilepsia que são refratárias aos fármacos convencionais. Essas têm motivado...
