Magnetic resonance imaging as a tool of differential diagnostic in the brainstem damage in children [PDF]
In this review, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is presented as a tool for the differential diagnostics of the brainstem lesions in children. It has been shown that both the isolated brainstem lesions or those related to the supratentorial changes occur

Sub-cortical and brainstem sites associated with chemo-stimulated increases in ventilation in humans [PDF]
We investigated the neural basis for spontaneous chemo-stimulated increases in ventilation in awake, healthy humans. Blood oxygen level dependent (BOLD) functional MRI was performed in nine healthy subjects using T2weighted echo planar imaging.

Multiple NTS neuron populations cumulatively suppress food intake
Several discrete groups of feeding-regulated neurons in the nucleus of the solitary tract (nucleus tractus solitarius; NTS) suppress food intake, including avoidance-promoting neurons that express Cck (NTSCck cells) and distinct Lepr- and Calcr ...

Metabolic Activity in Central Neural Structures of Patients With Myocardial Injury
Background Increasing evidence suggests a psychosomatic link between neural systems and the heart. In light of the growing burden of ischemic cardiovascular disease across the globe, a better understanding of heart‐brain interactions and their ...

Neuromodulatory Control of Brainstem Function in Health and Disease
The brainstem is a conduit connecting higher brain centers, cerebellum and spinal cord and provides the main sensory and motor innervation to the face, head and neck via the cranial nerves.

We present a case of a 38-year-old-man who presented with 1-week history of developing weakness of peripheral and cranial nerves. His MRI scan of the brain showed a large cavitating lesion at the brainstem and two further lesions of the right cerebral cortex and his CT chest showed features of old tuberculosis (TB).

Pinpointing brainstem mechanisms responsible for autonomic dysfunction in Rett syndrome: therapeutic perspectives for 5-HT1A agonists [PDF]
Rett syndrome is a neurological disorder caused by loss of function of methyl-CpG-binding protein 2 (MeCP2). Reduced function of this ubiquitous transcriptional regulator has a devastating effect on the central nervous system.
