Tips and guidelines to help you create resources that align with OpenStax titles
This resource is a video abstract of a research paper created by Research Square on behalf of its authors. It provides a synopsis that's easy to understand, and can be used to introduce the topics it covers to students, researchers, and the general public. The video's transcript is also provided in full, with a portion provided below for preview:
"The ketogenic diet may be one of the hottest trends in weight management, but doctors have long known of its potential to reduce seizures in those with epilepsy. In a new article in Physiological Reports, scientists suggest that strict adherence to the diet may not be needed to achieve this neuroprotective effect. Through a series of experiments in rats, they show that supplementing a normal, carbohydrate-rich diet with specific ketogenic agents may significantly delay seizures. The team specifically focused on tonic-clonic seizures caused by exposure to high levels of oxygen. This central nervous system oxygen toxicity is a complication that can arise following hyperbaric oxygen therapy, which involves inhaling pure oxygen in a pressurized or hyperbaric chamber. This kind of treatment is used to manage various medical conditions, including air/gas embolism, decompression sickness, carbon monoxide poisoning and diabetic wounds..."
