The results show that dietary vitamin E effectively prevented lipid peroxidation at the LCP concentrations investigated and suggest that levels presently in infant formulas are sufficient.
We describe a 10-year-old boy who presented with acute onset of neck pain and neurologic symptoms caused by a spinal epidural hematoma. An enhancing mass, which mimicked a tumor, was seen on MR imaging of the cervical spine. The uptake of gadolinium in the mass and the associated mass effect suggested a tumor etiology. Such spinal epidural hematomas are extremely rare in the pediatric population. Additionally, it is even more uncommon for spinal epidural hematomas to resemble tumors. It is important to consider this entity when an enhancing epidural mass is found on MRI in the setting of an acute presentation.
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.
