Couldwell, William T. | Malignant glioma-derived soluble factors regulate proliferation of normal adult human astrocytes | Malignant gliomas are characteristically surrounded by marked gliosis. To assess whether glioma-derived products contribute to the proliferation of astrocytes, a feature of the gliosis response, we evaluated the influence of culture supernatants from malignant human glioma lines and tumor cyst fluid... | Astrocyte; Glioma; Gliosis; Proliferation; Soluble factors | 1992 |

Schmidt, Meic H. | Management of brain abscesses associated with halo fixation | Halo orthoses are commonly used in the management of a variety of cervical spinal pathological conditions. Although placement of the cranial pins was initially believed to be safe with minimal complications, minor complications related to the cranial pins have the potential to create a setting for ... | Cerebral abscess; Cranial pin; Halo orthosis; Halo fixation; Inner table of skull | 2008 |

Couldwell, William T. | Management of cysticercosis cerebri | Infestation of the central nervous system (CNS) with the parasitic larval form of the cestode Taenia solium, Cysticercosis Cerebri represents an endemic problem in much of the underdeveloped world. In such areas, up to 4% of the population maybe affected by neurocysticercosis, and it accounts for u... | Taenia solium; Cysticercosis Cerebri; Parenchymal cyst; Basilar cisternal cyst; Intraventricular cyst | 1989 |

Bisson, Erica F. | Management of distraction injury of the lumbosacral junction with unilateral perched facet | Background: Traumatic unilateral facet dislocation without fracture is an uncommon injury of the lumbosacral junction. We describe a case of a unilateral perched L5-S1 facet causing axial back pain and radiculopathy provoked by motion. ... | Spine surgery, Facet dislocation, operative management, trauma, neurosurgery | 2011-01-04 |

Couldwell, William T. | Management of meningiomas involving the transverse or sigmoid sinus | Meningiomas that invade the transverse or sigmoid sinuses are uncommon tumors that are challenging to treat surgically. Although the risk of recurrence is associated with the extent of resection, complete removal of meningiomas in these locations must be balanced with avoidance of venous outflow obs... | | 2013-01-01 |

Couldwell, William T. | Management of pituitary adenomas | We present an overview of the management of pituitary adenomas, with discussions of microanatomy, of diagnostic studies of general neuroendocrine function, and of radiologic evaluation. We discuss the diagnosis of pituitary adenoma and its treatment with sections on null cell, prolactin (PRL)-secre... | Pituitary adenoma; Transsphenoidal surgery; Corticotropin; Prolactin; Growth hormone; Transcranial surgery | 1994 |

Kestle, John R. W. | Management of shunt infections: a multicenter pilot study | Object. Approximately 10% of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) shunt operations are associated with infection and require removal or externalization of the shunt, in-hospital treatment with antibiotic agents, and insertion of a new shunt. In a previous survey, the authors identified substantial variation i... | Shunt infections; Ventriculoperitoneal shunt; Treatment evaluation | 2006 |

Kestle, John R. W.; MacDonald, Joel D.; Schmidt, Richard H. | Marked reduction of cerebral vasospasm with lumbar drainage of cerebrospinal fluid after subarachnoid hemorrhage | Object. Cerebral vasospasm after subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) continues to be a major source of morbidity in patients despite significant clinical and basic science research. Efforts to prevent vasospasm by removing spasmogens from the subarachnoid space have produced mixed results. The authors hyp... | Cerebral vasospasm; Lumbar drainage | 2004 |

Margraf, Rebecca L.; Mao, Rong; Highsmith, W. Edward; Holtegaard, Leonard; Wittwer, Carl T. | Masking selected sequence variation by incorporating mismatches into melting analysis probes | Hybridization probe melting analysis can be complicated by the presence of sequence variations (benign polymorphisms or other mutations) near the targeted mutation. We investigated the use of 'masking' probes to differentiate alleles with similar probe melting temperatures. Selected sequence variati... | probe hybridization; high-resolution melting analysis; masking; RET | 2005-06-28 |

Margraf, Rebecca L.; Mao, Rong; Wittwer, Carl T. | Masking techniques: masking selected sequence variation by incorporating mismatches into melting analysis probes | Hybridization probe melting analysis can be complicated by the presence of sequence variation (non-pathogenic polymorphisms or other mutations) near the targeted mutation. We investigated the use of 'masking' probes to differentiate alleles with similar probe melting temperatures. Materials and Meth... | probe hybridization; high-resolution melting analysis; masking; RET | 2005-10-21 |

Olson, Randall J. | Mathematical description of causative factors and prevention of elevated intraocular pressure after keratoplasty | In keratoplasty with grafts the same size as the recipient bed, tight sutures and thick recipient corneal periphery distort the angle and may collapse the filtering meshwork. This can cause very high postoperative pressures, which can be avoided by the use of donor grafts larger than the recipient b... | Keratoplasty; Trabecular Collapse; Angle Disrottion; Elevated Pressure; Aphakia; Mathematics | 1977-12 |
