J Neurol Surg A Cent Eur NeurosurgDOI: 10.1055/s-0039-1698383 Introduction Preserving the integrity of the corticospinal tract (CST) while maximizing the extent of tumor resection is one of the key principles of brain tumor surgery to prevent new neurologic deficits. Our goal was to determine the impact of the use of perioperative diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) fiber-tracking protocols for location of the CSTs, in conjunction with intraoperative direct electrical stimulation (DES) on patient...
J Neurol Surg A Cent Eur NeurosurgDOI: 10.1055/s-0039-1691820 Background The optimal management of posterior fossa arteriovenous malformations (pfAVMs) is a matter of debate. To advance this discussion, we present our clinical series and the results of a systematic literature review according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analyses (PRISMA) guidelines. Methods Fourteen consecutive patients with pfAVMs were admitted between 2007 and 2018. Preoperative...
J Neurol Surg A Cent Eur NeurosurgDOI: 10.1055/s-0039-1691821 Background Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) is a useful method for noninvasive presurgical functional mapping. However, the scanner environment is inherently unsuitable for the examination of auditory and language functions, due to the loud acoustic noise produced by the scanner. Interleaved acquisition methods alleviate this problem by providing a silent period for stimulus presentation and/or response control (sparse...

Abstract Tuberous sclerosis (TSC) is an autosomal dominantly inherited genetic disorder that chiefly affects the central nervous system, along with the other multiple systems. While phenomenology and symptom severity may vary greatly from one individual to another, the most common neurological presentation is epilepsy, which may be refractory in a considerable number of patients. Convulsive SE is seen frequently in TSC patients due to the high ratio of refractory seizures in well-studied...
Abstract Background Fibrocartilaginous embolism (FCE) is a rare cause of pediatric ischemic myelopathy. The pathology is thought to result from fragmentation with embolization into the microvasculature of the radicular artery often secondary to high axial force. While most cases arise in the setting of vigorous activity, our case reveals that FCE can also occur during relative physical inactivity. Additionally, while a majority of cases...

Gene transfer agents (GTAs) are bacteriophage-like particles produced by several bacterial and archaeal lineages that contain small pieces of the producing cells' genomes that can be transferred to other cells in a process similar to transduction. One well-studied GTA is RcGTA produced by the α-proteobacterium Rhodobacter capsulatus. RcGTA gene expression is regulated by several cellular regulatory systems, including the CckA-ChpT-CtrA phosphorelay. Transcription of multiple other regulator-encoding...
The anaerobic spore-former, Clostridioides difficile, causes significant diarrheal disease in humans and other mammals. Infection begins with the ingestion of dormant spores which subsequently germinate within the host gastrointestinal tract. Here, the vegetative cells proliferate and secrete two exotoxins, TcdA and TcdB, which cause disease symptoms. Although spore formation and toxin production are critical for C. difficile pathogenesis, the regulatory links between these two physiological processes...
Stringent response is a conserved stress response mechanism in which bacteria employ the second messengers guanosine tetraphosphate and guanosine pentaphosphate (collectively termed ‘(p)ppGpp') to reprogram their cellular processes under stress. In mycobacteria, these alarmones govern a multitude of cellular phenotypes such as cell division, biofilm formation, antibiotic tolerance and long-term survival. Mycobacterium smegmatis possesses the bifunctional RelMsm as a (p)ppGpp synthetase and hydrolase....
Cytochrome bd quinol oxidases, which have greater affinity for oxygen than heme-copper cytochrome oxidases (HCOs), promote bacterial respiration and fitness in low-oxygen environments such as host tissues. Here, we show that in addition to the CydA and CydB subunits, the small protein CydX is required for the assembly and function of the cytochrome bd complex in the enteric pathogen Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium. Mutant S. Typhimurium lacking CydX showed loss of proper heme arrangement...
The most common intracellular symbiont on the planet –Wolbachia pipientis– is infamous largely for the reproductive manipulations induced in its host. However, more recent evidence suggests that this bacterium may also serve as a nutritional mutualist in certain host backgrounds and for certain metabolites. We performed a large-scale analysis of conserved gene content across all sequenced Wolbachia genomes to infer potential nutrients made by these symbionts. We review and critically evaluate the...
