Presentation

Studies to support this claim are presented. [books.google.com]

It is present in water and toothpaste. The excessive accumulation of Fluoride give rise to the formation of crystals. It disrupts the function of Pineal Gland which reduces the production of Melatonin. [herbpathy.com]

View a video presentation on the diagnosis and treatment of pineal cysts with Mischer Neuroscience Institute director Dr. Dong Kim below. [neuro.memorialhermann.org]

Most children are aged 10-20 years at presentation, with the average age at presentation being 13 years. Adults typically are older than 30 years at presentation. [emedicine.medscape.com]

Melanin is a pigment with semiconductor properties that is present within the cells of all living things. [kevinhinkle.com]

Workup

Therefore, a rigorous and uniform preoperative workup is a requisite for all patients thought to harbor a pineal region tumor. Any endocrine abnormalities should be investigated prior to surgery. [emedicine.medscape.com]

Treatment

The main treatments for pineal region tumours are surgery, radiotherapy and sometimes chemotherapy. Your treatment depends mainly on the type of pineal region tumour you have. [macmillan.org.uk]

Pineal gland cyst treatment and diagnostics The most common cyst is found by chance during magnetic resonance imaging. As for the treatment, everything depends on the nature of the disease and its causes. [allcysts.com]

Circadian rhythms and antihypertensive treatment Melatonin : PR melatonin improves nocturnal BP [ 21 ]. [patient.info]

Comprehensive case history and consideration of sleep cycles and rituals is an essential component of whole-body, wellness-based treatment. Dr. [liebellclinic.com]

Prognosis

Prognosis and histopathologic features in papillary tumors of the pineal region: a retrospective multicenter study of 31 cases. J Neuropathol Exp Neurol. 2006 Oct. 65(10):1004-11. [Medline]. [emedicine.medscape.com]

Prognosis Pineal tumors are treatable, and in many cases, curable. The ideal approach to treatment depends on the size and type of tumor, and the extent to which the tumor is invading or compressing surrounding neurovascular structures. [skullbaseinstitute.com]

In contrast, pineoblastomas and PPTID have a poor prognosis as malignant neoplasms. [plaza.umin.ac.jp]

Pineal Tumor Outlook In recent years the prognosis for children with pineal tumors has improved dramatically. Questions to Ask Your Doctor Before a Biopsy Medical Author: Melissa Conrad Stöppler, MD Medical Editor: William C. [emedicinehealth.com]

Etiology

Melatonin has also been identified to inhibit the progression of Aβ brain pathology as well as the formation of Aβ protein itself. [7] A 2009 study published in Medical Hypothesis sheds light on the mechanisms that may link pineal gland dysfunction with the etiology [greenmedinfo.com]

Epidemiology

Richard Schulz, PhD, is Professor of Psychiatry, Psychology, Epidemiology, Sociology, and Health and Rehabilitation Sciences, and Director of the University Center for Social and Urban Research, at the University of Pittsburgh. [books.google.com]

Similar findings have been reported in two epidemiological studies of human populations drinking fluoridated water. [fluoridealert.org]

However, to date this has not been conclusively proved by epidemiological studies [ 18 ]. A meta-analysis found that night-shift work had little or no effect in the incidence of breast cancer in women [ 19 ]. [patient.info]

Currently, initial surgical management for tissue diagnosis, and possible resection, is the standard of care for most children with pineal region tumors. [16] Epidemiology Pineal region tumors make up 0.4-1.0% of intracranial tumors in adults and 3-8% [emedicine.medscape.com]

Epidemiology The term “pineal region tumors” includes both the neoplasms originating from the pineal body and the neoplasms originating from the adjacent anatomical structures, such as the thalamus, the tegmentum of the midbrain, and the falcotentorium [plaza.umin.ac.jp]

Pathophysiology

[…] patients diagnosed with Parkinson's disease, autism, depression, bipolar disorder schizophrenia and chronic fatigue syndrome are less consistent, likely reflecting the fact that these diagnoses do not represent a disease with a unitary pathogenesis and pathophysiology [bmj.com]

Insulin and metabolic syndrome [ 23 ] The interaction between melatonin, circadian rhythms and the RAS has also been implicated in the pathophysiology of type ll diabetes and metabolic syndrome. [patient.info]

Neuroradiological research has shown the pineal gland to be involved in the pathophysiology of Multiple Sclerosis. [africaresource.com]

I n the field of Bio-Psychiatry it was a conventional common thought that hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) system dysregulation/hyperactivity (and thus excessive secretion of cortisol) played an important role in the pathophysiology of depression [antidepressantsfacts.com]

The pathophysiology of pineal region tumors is mostly a result of anatomic compression of adjacent structures, although local infiltration of neural structures can lead to symptoms in cases of highly invasive tumors. [emedicine.medscape.com]

Prevention

Prevention and Treatment of Pineal Dysfunction 1) If the teres major tested weak apply the rules listed in prevention and treatment of pituitary malfunction #7 to correct abnormal cranial biomechanics. 2) Go to sleep early (between 9pm and 10pm is ideal [myvits.com]

Treatment and Prevention Good nutrition for the pituitary includes alfalfa, kelp, dandelion, bee pollen and spirulina. Magnesium and potassium are important minerals. [diagnose-me.com]

Melatonin has antioxidant effects which help in preventing disease qualities. Melatonin controls over stimulation of the sympathetic nerves to lower blood pressure and slow the heart rate, thus reducing the impact on heart. [sleepdisordersguide.com]

If brain calcification is one of the primary driver's of Alzheimer's disease, as proposed, then inhibiting calcification may be a viable strategy for prevention and treatment. [greenmedinfo.com]

However, the evidence supporting the use of melatonin in the prevention and treatment of SAD is equivocal. [patient.info]
