Torticollis as a Rare Presentation of Cerebellopontine Angle Choroid Plexus Papilloma in Children [PDF]
Background and Importance: The rare intracranial neoplasms are Choroid Plexus Papillomas (CPPs), especially in the cerebellopontine angle. The main location of choroid plexus papillomas in adults and children are 4th ventricle and lateral ventricles ...

Cellular deconvolution of GTEx tissues powers discovery of disease and cell-type associated regulatory variants. [PDF]
The Genotype-Tissue Expression (GTEx) resource has provided insights into the regulatory impact of genetic variation on gene expression across human tissues; however, thus far has not considered how variation acts at the resolution of the different cell ...

Hypoxia helps glioma to fight therapy [PDF]
Despite major improvements in the surgical management the prognosis for patients bearing malignant gliomas is still dismal. Malignant gliomas are notoriously resistant to treatment and the survival time of patients is between 3-8 years for low-grade and

Mathematical modeling of glioma invasion and therapy approaches via kinetic theory of active particles [PDF]
A multiscale model for glioma spread in brain tissue under the influence of vascularization and vascular endothelial growth factors is proposed. It accounts for the interplay between the different components of the neoplasm and the healthy tissue and it investigates and compares various therapy approaches.

Retinotopy Inspired Brain Encoding Model and the All-for-One Training Recipe [PDF]
Brain encoding models aim to predict brain voxel-wise responses to stimuli images, replicating brain signals captured by neuroimaging techniques. There is a large volume of publicly available data, but training a comprehensive brain encoding model is challenging.

Splanchnic vein thrombosis in myeloproliferative neoplasms: Pathophysiology and molecular mechanisms of disease [PDF]
Myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs) are the most common underlying prothrombotic disorder found in patients with splanchnic vein thrombosis (SVT). Clinical risk factors for MPN-associated SVTs include younger age, female sex, concomitant hypercoagulable ...
