Objective: To evaluate visual evoked potentials (VEP) patterns in chronic obstructive
pulmonary disease (COPD) patients who were compliant with supplemental oxygen …

Aim: The normal visual evoked potential (VEP) reflects the functional integrity of the visual
pathways from retinal to occipital striate area. Visual reseptors are sensitive to hypoxemia …

Abstract Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD), a progressive and partially
reversible disease, has drawn world-wide attention for its moderate prevalence rate and …

OBJECTIVE: To assess whether patients having stable chronic obstructive pulmonary
disease (COPD) with no clinical evidence of visual impairment or peripheral neuropathy …

The cerebral cortex is exquisitely sensitive to hypoxia with rela-tively moderate reductions in
02 tension resulting in a spectrum of central nervous system-related symptoms ranging from …

Objective: To know the frequency and predictors of peripheral neuropathy and the abnormal
visual evoked potentials in stable patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease …

Although the long-term effects of acute anoxia have been studied, the effects of chronic
hypoxia on the developing human brain have received little attention. We studied children …

Hypoxia, decreased oxygen availability, may serve as a model to help elucidate the
pathophysiological basis of the metabolic encephalopathies. These disorders, in which …

Background Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease is associated with significant systemic
abnormalities which includes systemic inflammation and neurohormonal activation that are …

Introduction: Delayed posthypoxic leukoencephalopathy (DPHL) may result from a variety of
hypoxic insults, including respiratory depression from an opiate overdose. The underlying …
