Aging‐Driven Blood–Brain Barrier Dysfunction and Its Impact on CNS Cancer Susceptibility: A Comprehensive Narrative Review

Aging and Cancer, EarlyView.
Aging weakens the blood–brain barrier (BBB), increasing susceptibility to CNS cancers and complicating treatment. This review examines BBB deterioration, its impact on drug delivery, and potential interventions like targeting neuroinflammation and advanced therapies.

Hyperacute pathophysiology of traumatic and vascular brain injury captured by ultrasound, photoacoustic, and magnetic resonance imaging [PDF]

arXiv, 2022
Cerebrovascular dynamics and pathomechanisms that evolve in the minutes and hours following traumatic vascular injury in the brain remain largely unknown. We investigated the pathophysiology evolution within the first three hours after closed-head traumatic brain injury (TBI) and subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH), two common traumatic vascular injuries, in

Ferroptosis and Brain Injury [PDF]

Developmental Neuroscience, 2018
Ferroptosis is a nonapoptotic form of cell death characterized by the iron-dependent accumulation of toxic lipid reactive oxygen species. Small-molecule screening and subsequent optimization have yielded potent and specific activators and inhibitors of this process.

Adult Education Confronting White Christian Nationalism: A Thematic Analysis

New Directions for Adult and Continuing Education, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT As a way to conclude, this article elaborates key themes that emerged from the collected articles in this volume. Each article carries its own important message about the role of adult education in confronting White Christian nationalism, while here, Prins and Carr‐Chellman offer a thematic interpretation of the volume as a whole. These themes

Establishment and validation of a bad outcomes prediction model based on EEG and clinical parameters in prolonged disorder of consciousness

Frontiers in Human Neuroscience
ObjectiveThis study aimed to explore the electroencephalogram (EEG) indicators and clinical factors that may lead to poor prognosis in patients with prolonged disorder of consciousness (pDOC), and establish and verify a clinical predictive model based on

Concussion classification via deep learning using whole-brain white matter fiber strains [PDF]

, 2017
Developing an accurate and reliable injury predictor is central to the biomechanical studies of traumatic brain injury. State-of-the-art efforts continue to rely on empirical, scalar metrics based on kinematics or model-estimated tissue responses explicitly pre-defined in a specific brain region of interest.

Towards better understanding of factors contributing to medical physicist well‐being in academic medical centers: A systems‐analysis approach

Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, EarlyView.
Abstract The well‐being of medical physicists can impact overall system performance, patient safety, and quality of patient care. There are limited formal assessments of factors contributing to physicists well‐being. Nine medical physicists at a US academic medical center were surveyed on 21 workplace factors, drawn from the National Academy of ...

Safety of Intramedullary Autologous Peripheral Nerve Grafts for Post-Rehabilitated Complete Motor Spinal Cord Injuries: A Phase I Study

Acta Medica Iranica, 2013
Many experimental studies have reported behavioral improvement after transplantation of peripheral nerve tissue into the contused spinal cord, even in large animals. The safety of this treatment in human remains unknown.

Relationship between brain injury criteria and brain strain across different types of head impacts can be different [PDF]

, 2020
Multiple brain injury criteria (BIC) are developed to quickly quantify brain injury risks after head impacts. These BIC originated from different types of head impacts (e.g., sports and car crashes) are widely used in risk evaluation. However, the accuracy of using the BIC on brain injury risk estimation across different types of head impacts has not ...
