The Brainstem in Emotion: A Review [PDF]

Frontiers in Neuroanatomy, 2017
Emotions depend upon the integrated activity of neural networks that modulate arousal, autonomic function, motor control, and somatosensation. Brainstem nodes play critical roles in each of these networks, but prior studies of the neuroanatomic basis of ...

A brainstem map for visceral sensations

Nature, 2022
The nervous system uses various coding strategies to process sensory inputs. For example, the olfactory system uses large receptor repertoires and is wired to recognize diverse odours, whereas the visual system provides high acuity of object position ...

Brainstem disconnection [PDF]

Pediatric Radiology, 2009
Brainstem disconnection is a very rare neonatal abnormality, with only seven cases reported. We report a unique case of a neonate who presented at delivery with hypertonia, dysmorphic facial features, and respiratory distress, as well as numerous musculoskeletal and genitourinary abnormalities. MRI of the brain showed disconnection between the pons and

Brainstem neuropathology in two cases of COVID-19: SARS-CoV-2 trafficking between brain and lung

Journal of Neurology, 2021
SARS-CoV-2 might spread through the nervous system, reaching respiratory centers in the brainstem. Because we recently reported neurophysiological brainstem reflex abnormalities in COVID-19 patients, we here neuropathologically assessed structural ...

Brainstem and cerebellar involvement in MOG-IgG-associated disorder versus aquaporin-4-IgG and MS

Journal of Neurology Neurosurgery & Psychiatry, 2020
Objective To determine the frequency and characteristics of brainstem or cerebellar involvement in myelin-oligodendrocyte-glycoprotein-antibody-associated-disorder (MOGAD) versus aquaporin-4-IgG-seropositive-neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (AQP4 ...

Brainstem dysfunction in critically ill patients

Critical Care, 2020
The brainstem conveys sensory and motor inputs between the spinal cord and the brain, and contains nuclei of the cranial nerves. It controls the sleep-wake cycle and vital functions via the ascending reticular activating system and the autonomic nuclei ...

Identification of a brainstem locus that inhibits tumor necrosis factor

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2020
Significance Electronic devices that stimulate electrical activity in the vagus nerve are being studied for clinical use in rheumatoid arthritis, inflammatory bowel disease, and other inflammatory syndromes because vagus nerve signals inhibit ...

Brainstem auditory evoked responses in brainstem infarction. [PDF]

Stroke, 1985
Brainstem auditory evoked responses (BAERs) were recorded in 40 patients with clinically definite brainstem infarction, and results were compared to localizations from physical signs and CT scans. The BAER was abnormal in 92% of patients with evidence on physical examination of dysfunction of lateral structures in the pons or midbrain.

The integrated genomic and epigenomic landscape of brainstem glioma

Nature Communications, 2020
Brainstem gliomas are a heterogeneous group of tumors that encompass both benign tumors cured with surgical resection and highly lethal cancers with no efficacious therapies.

The effect of Rhodamine B on the cerebellum and brainstem tissue of Rattus norvegicus

Journal of Public Health Research, 2020
Background: Rhodamine B is a component of xenobiotic substance metabolized by cytochrome P450 in the body to produce free radicals, which affects the activity of Superoxidase Dismutase (SOD), thereby, leading to oxidative stress, injury, increase in cell
