Comments |
"Much of our present knowledge of the metabolism
of the central nervous system is derived from observations in functionally abnormal states, and many
of these observations have been made in man. In table 3 are tabulated some of the results obtained in
studies of the human cerebral metabolic rate in various pathological states, some occurring spontaneously, others artificially induced by pharmacological agents. All are characterized by clear
evidence of mental and, therefore, cerebral dysfunction. It can be seen that those conditions which
exhibit alterations in cerebral metabolic rate can be
readily classified according to the general nature of
the cerebral metabolic defect." See note beneath table |
