A Role for the Action Observation Network in Apraxia After Stroke

Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2019
Limb apraxia is a syndrome often observed after stroke that affects the ability to perform skilled actions despite intact elementary motor and sensory systems. In a large cohort of unselected stroke patients with lesions to the left, right, and bilateral

Recalibration of the Frontal Behavioural Inventory Cut‐Off for Behavioural Screening in Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis

European Journal of Neurology, Volume 33, Issue 10, October 2026.
Using the cut‐off of 25 inherited from frontotemporal dementia, nearly four out of five ALS patients with behavioural impairment go undetected. In 506 patients we recalibrated the Frontal Behavioural Inventory and identified an ALS‐specific screening threshold of ≥ 9, which raised sensitivity from 0.22 to 0.87 while preserving acceptable specificity ...

SUN11602 Accelerates Early Peripheral Nerve Regeneration in an Experimental Median Nerve Transection Model

Journal of Cellular and Molecular Medicine, Volume 30, Issue 19, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Peripheral nerve injury (PNI) is one of the common life‐altering disabilities resulting in various degrees of impairment in movement and sensation alongside apraxia and long‐lasting pain. The gold standard for restoring the transected nerves is bridging the distal and proximal ends of disrupted autologous nerve using neurosurgical sutures ...
