Does humidity affect the variability of the induction of EAE (experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis) in terms of severity and incidence?5 answersThe variability of the induction of EAE in terms of severity and incidence is influenced by factors such as the origin of the encephalitogen and the presence of adjuvants. The use of adjuvants in EAE induction can produce non-specific effects that interfere with the autoimmune response to the central nervous system (CNS) tissue. EAE is a complex condition with heterogeneity in susceptibility, induction methods, and response to interventions. Age also plays a role in the pathophysiological features of EAE, with changes in metabolic profiles contributing to disease development. B cells do not play a role in the activation of encephalitogenic T cells but may contribute to the immune modulation of acute EAE. The induction of EAE is mediated by the cellular component of the immune response, specifically T lymphocytes, and the autoimmune response to myelin basic protein (MBP) is associated with the severity and onset of EAE.
What is the optimal dose of contrast bath for MRI?3 answersThe optimal dose of contrast agent for MRI varies depending on the specific imaging protocol and clinical indication. Studies have shown that the dose of contrast agent should be adjusted based on factors such as body surface area (BSA), pulse sequence used, and magnetic field strength. For T1-weighted imaging, the optimal dose of contrast agent has been found to be 0.1 mmol/kg body weight for most CNS pathology. However, higher doses (up to 0.3 mmol/kg) may be necessary for optimal detection of cerebral metastases or poorly enhancing lesions. Additionally, the use of higher magnetic field strengths (e.g., 3.0 T) may allow for a reduction in contrast agent dose while still achieving similar contrast enhancement compared to lower field strengths. Overall, the optimal dose of contrast agent for MRI should be determined based on the specific clinical scenario and imaging parameters being used.
