We assessed whether moderate alcohol intake in healthy social drinkers, suggested to be cardioprotective according to the 'French paradox', influences the cardiovascular risk factor homocysteine. A total of 60 normal nourished subjects who had no evidence of Vascular disease or other risk factors for hyperhomocysteinaemia were assigned to receive mineral water or 30 g of alcohol per day (as beer, red wine or spirits) for a period of 6 weeks. Homocysteine levels of social drinkers, independent of which beverage was consumed, increased during the observation. We postulate that elevated levels of homocysteine in social drinkers with regular moderate alcohol intake are at risk of developing cardiovascular diseases, which contradicts the suggested cardioprotection of alcohol according to the 'French paradox'."],["dc.identifier.doi","10.1093/alcalc/36.3.189"],["dc.identifier.isi","000169318700002"],["dc.identifier.pmid","11373253"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/25163"],["dc.notes.status","zu prüfen"],["dc.notes.submitter","Najko"],["dc.publisher","Oxford Univ Press"],["dc.relation.issn","0735-0414"],["dc.title","Moderate alcohol consumption in social drinkers raises plasma homocysteine levels: A contradiction to the 'French paradox'?"],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","yes"],["dc.type.peerReviewed","yes"],["dc.type.status","published"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]

EEG abnormalities consisted of repetitive posterior spikes that occurred when the eyes were closed and other conditions of fixation-off. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) documented severe posterior lesions with wallerian degeneration of the optic radiation. Electron capture detector single-photon emission computed tomography (ECD-SPECT) during the state of fixation-off showed regional hyperperfusion in the right posterior regions. We suggest that partial denervation of the primary visual cortex in this patient resulted in an increased cortical excitability and that the inhibitory effect of central vision and fixation leads to a suppression of spontaneous epileptic activity. This unusual symptomatic case may serve as a-model for the pathophysiology in the more often reported cases of idiopathic benign epilepsy syndrome of childhood."],["dc.identifier.doi","10.1046/j.1528-1157.2001.042007947.x"],["dc.identifier.isi","000170661000021"],["dc.identifier.pmid","11488898"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/22725"],["dc.notes.status","zu prüfen"],["dc.notes.submitter","Najko"],["dc.publisher","Lippincott Williams & Wilkins"],["dc.relation.issn","0013-9580"],["dc.title","Fixation-off sensitivity in an adult with symptomatic occipital epilepsy"],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","yes"],["dc.type.peerReviewed","yes"],["dc.type.status","published"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]
