It has been widely accepted that individuals with TLE tend to have neuronal injuries and memory impairment. However, little is known about the underlying molecular mechanisms. MicroRNAs (miRNAs)...

However, a challenge to extracting reliable anatomical information from these data is the use of reliable and effective clustering methodologies. In this paper, we implemented a new version of a robust unsupervised clustering...
Publication date: Available online 20 July 2019Source: Journal of Neuroscience MethodsAuthor(s): Ho-Jun Suk, Edward S. Boyden, Ingrid van WelieAbstractElectrophysiology is the study of neural activity in the form of local field potentials, current flow through ion channels, calcium spikes, back propagating action potentials and somatic action potentials, all measurable on a millisecond timescale. Despite great progress in imaging technologies and sensor proteins, none of the currently available tools...
Powered exoskeletons for over ground walking were designed to help people with neurological impairments to walk again. Extended training in powered exoskeletons has led to changes in walking and physiological ...
Publication date: October 2019Source: Current Opinion in Neurobiology, Volume 58Author(s): Patrick J DrewNeural activity in the brain is usually coupled to increases in local cerebral blood flow, leading to the increase in oxygenation that generates the BOLD fMRI signal. Recent work has begun to elucidate the vascular and neural mechanisms underlying the BOLD signal. The dilatory response is distributed throughout the vascular network. Arteries actively dilate within a second following neural activity...

We experienced a rare case of aspiration catheter coil breakage and subsequent retrieval using a stent retriever.Case DescriptionA 79-year-old man suddenly...

HalatschBackgroundWhile optic pathway gliomas (OPGs) are a frequent finding in pediatric patients with neurofibromatosis type 1, sporadic malignant optic pathway gliomas (mOPGs) in adult patients are more rare with 72 cases described in the literature. MOPGs are classified as either anaplastic astrocytoma (WHO grade III) or glioblastoma (WHO grade IV).Treatment...

Publication date: Available online 20 July 2019Source: Clinical Neurology and NeurosurgeryAuthor(s): josef finsterer, fulvio a scorzaAbstractSpinal and bulbar (bulbospinal) muscular atrophy (BSMA, SBMA, Kennedy’s disease) is a progressive motor neuron disease with rare involvement of structures other than the lower motor neuron, such as the endocrine system and the central nervous system (CNS). Aim of the review was to study type and frequency of clinical, imaging, and functional (CNS) abnormalities...
