Q

what structures allow csf to reach the dural venous sinues

A

the arachnoid granulations

32
Q

as pts and ots what is one symptoms we have ot look out for when a patient underwent a meningyoma surgery?

A

leaky nose = lekaing csf

33
Q

the CSF in ventircles is very simolar to what other system

A

lymphatic

34
Q

what cells does glymphatic system have

A

glial cells

35
Q

what is teh role of glial cells in glymphatic system

A

remove brain waste during sleep especially

36
Q

why do glial cells remove the most brain waste during sleep?

A

lots more CSF production while asleep

37
Q

true or false parkinsons and alzeihemers patients have an elevated CSF flow and increased brain waste

A

false = reduced flow

38
Q

3 roles of CSF

A
  • Maintains constant environment for cells of Central Nervous System
  • Removes brain metabolites/waste

-Serves as a mechanical cushion

39
Q

what is an aneurism

A

Abnormal dilation of a blood vessel, usually an artery

arterial pressure fills space and pressure damages brain areas

40
Q

name two types of stroke

A

ischemic
hemmhoragic

41
Q

what are the two types of ischemic

A

thrombotic
embolic

42
Q

name the stroke: blood clot occludes cerebral artery

A

thrombotic, ischemic

43
Q

name the stroke: Blood clo tbreaks off from somewhere in the body and travels to smaller cerebral arteries where it occludes blood flow to the brain.

A

embolic, ischemic

44
Q

true or false thrombotic and embolic are type sof hemmoragic strokes

A

false , ischemic

45
Q

which imaging can we use to diagnose a stroke

A

cT and mri

46
Q

a hemorrhagic stroke is:

A

Rupture of blood vessel within the brain

47
Q

how to treat ischemic stroke

A

TPA = bust the clot

48
Q

how to treat hemoragghci stroke

A

surgery

49
Q

the ischemic stroke is more intense tan hemmorahic stroke

A

false

50
Q

what is CVA

A

stroke

51
Q

absence of oxygen in the brain is …

A

anoxia

52
Q

low or insufficient oxygen reaching the brain is ….

A

hypoxia

53
Q

true or false : hypoxia rapidly produces cell death neurons die within 5 min

A

false : ANOXIA doe sthat

54
Q

hypoxia may kill cells more ____

A

slowly

55
Q

Drowning,choking,cardiacarrest,headtraumaandcarbonmonoxidepoisoningcanallleadto

A

hypoxia

56
Q

name some fo the instance sthat can lead to hypoxia

A

drowning
choking
cardiac arrest
head trauma
CO poisening

57
Q

what are symtpms associated with hypoxia

A

inatentiveness
poor judgement
memory lsos
decreas ein motor coordination

58
Q

apoptosis is also known as

A

programmed cell death

59
Q

apoptosis a a lack of …

A

oxygen and glucose

60
Q

what happens when neurons dont get oxygen and glucose

A

dysregulation of ATP

61
Q

disregulation of ATP leads to

A

activation of caspase 3

62
Q

activation of caspase 3 leads to

A

APOPTOSIS = cell death

63
Q

secondary cell death is caused when

A

-brain damage
- increased gliaal cell to remove waste
decrease Growth hormone and increase growth inhibiting molecules
-damage to almost all local neurons

64
Q

when neurons die what do they release

A

glutamate

65
Q

an increased amoutn of glutamate causes what

A

neighbouring neurons ot die

66
Q

when neighbouring neurons die due to increased glutamaate this is known as :

A

excitotoxicity

67
Q

Lost brain cells are replaced by glial cells , this is known as

A

glial scarring

68
Q

what is not good about glial scarring

A
  • glial cells impede regrowth of neurons = take up space
    -glial cells release growth inhibiting molecules = impeded axon regrowth
69
Q

immune activation and inflammatiowhat can happen when damage or failure of BBb

A

invasion of immune cells

70
Q

why dont we want immune cells in the brain

A

causes inflammationa nd edema
edema can lead to hypoxia

71
Q

what type of cells release inflammatory substances due to injury of the brain

A

monocytes and macrophages

72
Q

brocas area is in charge of…

A

speech

73
Q

middle cerebral artery sypplies hwich lobes

A

frontal
parieral
temporal
on lateral aspect

74
Q

neural cell death can be caused by

A

damage to the brain
