The most common CT finding in patients with SLE and acute abdominal pain is ischemic bowel disease. CT is useful for detecting the primary cause of gastrointestinal symptoms, planning treatment, and monitoring for infarction or perforation.
Because of a statistically significant overlap of CT features, only when intramural hypoattenuated nodules occupy a large area of the thickened gallbladder wall can the diagnosis of XGC be highly suggestive. The diagnosis of XGC at CT may indicate a less aggressive surgical approach.
The current follow-up 1H MR spectroscopy study shows a significant correlation between alterations of (GABA + Glu)/Cr ratio and BPRS, and supports a hypofrontality hypothesis in chronic schizophrenia. The reduction of (GABA + Glu)/Cr ratio after neuroleptic treatment may implicate the recovery of normal neuronal function in neurotransmitters. In vivo 1H MR spectroscopy may be a useful modality in follow-up evaluation of neuroleptic treatment in chronic schizophrenia.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
