  • Substantia Nigra and Parkinson's Disease
    HISTORICAL REVIEW Substantia Nigra and Parkinson’s Disease: A Brief History of Their Long and Intimate Relationship Martin Parent, André Parent ABSTRACT: The substantia nigra was discovered in 1786 by Félix Vicq d’Azyr, but it took more than a century before Paul Blocq and Georges Marinesco alluded to a possible link between this structure and Parkinson’s disease. The insight came from the study of a tuberculosis patient admitted in Charcot’s neurology ward at la Salpêtrière because he was suffering from unilateral parkinsonian tremor. At autopsy, Blocq and Marinesco discovered an encapsulated tumor confined to the substantia nigra, contralateral to the affected side, and concluded that tremor in that particular case resulted from a midbrain lesion. This pioneering work, published in 1893, led Edouard Brissaud to formulate, in 1895, the hypothesis that the substantia nigra is the major pathological site in Parkinson’s disease. Brissaud’s hypothesis was validated in 1919 by Constantin Trétiakoff in a remarkable thesis summarizing a post-mortem study of the substantia nigra conducted in Marinesco’s laboratory. Despite highly convincing evidence of nigral cell losses in idiopathic and post-encephalitic Parkinsonism, Trétiakoff’s work raised considerable doubts among his colleagues, who believed that the striatum and pallidum were the preferential targets of parkinsonian degeneration. Trétiakoff’s results were nevertheless confirmed by detailed neuropathological studies undertaken in the 1930s and by the discovery, in the 1960s, of the dopaminergic nature of the nigrostriatal neurons that degenerate in Parkinson’s disease. These findings have strengthened the link between the substantia nigra and Parkinson’s disease, but modern research has uncovered the multifaceted nature of this neurodegenerative disorder by identifying other brain structures and chemospecifc systems involved in its pathogenesis.

  • Notes on the Origins of the Medical Cinematographic Gaze Paula Arantzazu Ruiz
    Vol. VI comparative cinema Paula Arantzazu No. 11 2018 Ruiz Notes on the 56-71 origins of the medical cinematographic gaze Only three years after the public presentation of the Lumières’ cinematograph, medical cinema officially came into being with the first surgical films by French doctor Eugène-Louis Doyen, and with neurological films derived from chronophotographic experiments at the neuropsychiatric hospital of La Salpêtrière in Paris (run by Jean-Martin Charcot), as well as the graphic method proposed by Étienne-Jules Marey. Both are models of scientific film narrative about the human body which, with the consolidation of positivist science, helped to unite the discourse about bodily efficiency and economy. On one hand, by determining an array of corporal movement anomalies in relation to the new visual configuration of psyche, and on the other, by establishing the regulatory protocols in certain procedures in medicine from codified movements by the doctor who is filmed while working in the operating theatre.

The professional literature and official documents issued in developed European countries reveal various meanings for the phrase “recreational sport”, some of which extremely rigorous and restrictive and others rather vague and confusing. As for instance, the relationship between sports and economics no longer represents a taboo subject and, in view of the multiple virtues of recreational sports, it tends to expand into the field of leisure sports as well.

  • Marinesco Et La Theorie Du Neurone: Les Balkans Et Le Microscope
    MARINESCO ET LA THEORIE DU NEURONE: LES BALKANS ET LE MICROSCOPE ALEXANDRU MARINESCU*, MATEI MARINESCU** Abstract. The authors remind the origins, the formation and the career of Gheorghe Marinescu (1863–1938), his privileged relations with Jean-Marie Charcot and with the other great neuropathologists of his time (Nissl, Ramon y Cajal, etc.). They briefly describe the fields of work of Marinescu, his place in the history of neuronal researches and of the medical cinematography. Keywords: Gheorghe Marinescu, Neuronal Theory, microscope, neuronal researches. Le professeur Georges Marinesco est l’une de plus importantes figures de la science médicale roumaine, avec Francisc Rainer, Jean Cantacuzène et Victor Babes, une figure qui hante encore les couloirs sombres du service de Neurologie de l’hôpital Colentina, avec ses salons à plusieurs lits et ses marches ébréchées. La neurologie roumaine à été fondée par le professeur Marinesco et ses suivants ont tous fait appel à sa figure tutellelaire dans l’enseignement de la neurologie. Le professeur Serbanescu, qui à enseigné la neurologie à un des auteurs de cet article, évoquait le sens du diagnostic, la quête des signes cliniques et, enfin, le lien indestructible entre la maladie dans la chambre du malade et la nécessité de visualiser la lésion par le biais de la neuropathologie. Mais le chemin de la connaissance à été bien tortueux pour Marinesco, des quartiers pauvres de Bucarest à Paris, dans la proximité de Charcot, puis à la consécration comme neuropathologiste et neurologue, comme auteur de « La cellule nerveuse », préfacée par Santiago Ramon y Cajal. Il est né le 28 février 1863 dans la « mahala » (périphérie pauvre) de Bucarest de « Marin Procopiu, décédé et Maria, veuve », comme le dit son certificat de naissance.

  • Marian TUTUI, Romanian Film Archive BALKAN CINEMA
    Marian TUTUI, Romanian Film Archive BALKAN CINEMA VERSUS CINEMA OF THE BALKAN NATIONS 2. Manakia Bros: Pioneers of Balkan Cinema, Claimed by Six Nations In Romania’s capital we found out that in France and England they sell cameras rendering “living” photos. Ienache already could not get rid of the desire to return to Bitola with a shooting camera. Even in his sleep was longing for it. While I returned home, he went to London where he purchased a Bioscope camera. Milton Manakia The Vlach (Aromanian) brothers Ienache and Miltiade Manakia represent the most eloquent example of filmmakers that belong to the Balkan cultural heritage as the attempt to establish their affiliation to one or another national cinema is foredoomed to failure. They are considered as the first Balkan filmmakers as they had shot several important films for no less than six Balkan nations. Also for the impressive number of photos they made and mainly for their importance they remain as the most important photographers in the Balkans. Ienache had a photographic activity of at least 41 years while Milton of 65 years, quite impossible to match with. They also shot films between 1907- 1912 and owned an open cinema and a cinema theatre between 1921- 1939. Unfortunately their work is almost unknown in Romania and although they considered themselves as Romanians, Yugoslavia, Greece, R.Macedonia, Turkey and Albania have been claiming them in the last decades. Ienache (Ion, Ianakis), the elder brother (1878-1954) and Milton (Miltiade), the younger one (1882- 1964), were born in nowadays Northern Greece at Avdella in the Pindus Mountains, a region that until 1912 was part of the Ottoman Empire.

CONNECTIONS WITH CEREBRAL SENESCENCE Dan RIGA1*, Sorin RIGA1, Aurel ARDELEAN2, George PRIBAC2, Francisc SCHNEIDER2 1 Department of Stress Research and Prophylaxis, ”Al. Obregia” Clinical Hospital of Psychiatry, Bucharest, Romania 2 ”Vasile Goldis” Western University, Arad, Romania Senile dementia results from the progress of age. Man loses his sensibility along with the free use of the faculties of understanding, before arriving at an extreme state of decrepitude. Senile dementia is established slowly. It commences with feebleness of memory, particularly of recent impressions. The sensations are feeble; the attention, at first fatiguing, at length becomes impossible; the will is uncertain and without impulsion; the movements are slow and impracticable.... A man in a state of dementia is deprived of advantages he formerly enjoyed; he was a rich man who has become poor. The idiot, on the contrary, has always been in a state of want and misery. Jean-Étienne Dominique Esquirol (1772 - 1840), French psychiatrist, a favorite student of Philippe Pinel, Des Maladies Mentales (1830) ABSTRACT. Introduction. Alzheimer disease (AD) becomes ”disease of the century” by its prevalence, morbidity, prediction and economic impact. Paper aims of present and our following studies on AD were represented by the achievement of a global and unitarian bio-medical research of this inflammatory-degenerative pathology, the description of AD alterations in brain structures and by the correlation with the same changes from cerebral senescence. Materials and methods. Human brains from AD patients and old people, as well as aging brains from Wistar rats and guinea pigs were investigated by macro- and microscopic morphological methods.
