Mitophagy-associated programmed neuronal death and neuroinflammation
Mitochondria are crucial organelles that play a central role in cellular metabolism and programmed cell death in eukaryotic cells. Mitochondrial autophagy (mitophagy) is a selective process where damaged mitochondria are encapsulated and degraded through

Glia as architects of central nervous system formation and function
Glia constitute roughly half of the cells of the central nervous system (CNS) but were long-considered to be static bystanders to its formation and function.

NMDAR‐Antibody Encephalitis Diagnosed With Primary Central Nervous System Lymphoma: A Case Series
ABSTRACT N‐methyl‐D‐aspartate receptor‐antibody encephalitis (NMDAR encephalitis) is one of the most common forms of autoimmune encephalitis, with a paraneoplastic relationship described in approximately 38%. Primary central nervous system lymphoma (PCNSL) is a rare hematologic malignancy that is not often considered as the underlying neoplasm in this ...

Influence of Dystrophin Isoform Deficiency on Motor Development in Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy
ABSTRACT Objective In Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD), lack of the shorter dystrophin isoforms Dp140 and Dp71 is associated with increased central nervous system (CNS) involvement. We aimed to investigate how CNS involvement affects motor development in young DMD boys.

Protective Functions of Reactive Astrocytes Following Central Nervous System Insult
Astrocytes play important roles in numerous central nervous system disorders including autoimmune inflammatory, hypoxic, and degenerative diseases such as Multiple Sclerosis, ischemic stroke, and Alzheimer’s disease. Depending on the spatial and temporal

The Diagnostic Value of Visual Evoked Potentials in Chronic Disorders of Consciousness
ABSTRACT Objective In chronic disorders of consciousness (DOCs), the distinction between vegetative state/unresponsive wakefulness syndrome (VS/UWS) and minimally conscious state (MCS) is as crucial as it is challenging. Evoked potentials (EPs) and event‐related potentials (ERPs) are helpful, but some limitations prevent their consistent use in the ...

ABSTRACT Introduction The kappa‐free light chain (κ‐FLC) index is known to be highly sensitive and specific for diagnosing multiple sclerosis (MS), while little is understood about lambda (λ)‐FLC. This study assessed the κ‐FLC and λ‐FLC indices in autoimmune glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) astrocytopathy.

Detection of emotions in Parkinson's disease using higher order spectral features from brain's electrical activity [PDF]
Non-motor symptoms in Parkinson's disease (PD) involving cognition and emotion have been progressively receiving more attention in recent times. Electroencephalogram (EEG) signals, being an activity of central nervous system, can reflect the underlying ...

ABSTRACT Objective Reliable biomarkers are essential for tracking disease progression and advancing treatments for multiple system atrophy (MSA). In this study, we propose the MSA Atrophy Index (MSA‐AI), a novel composite volumetric measure to distinguish MSA from related disorders and monitor disease progression. Methods Seventeen participants with an

Pupillometric measurement of operator workload [PDF]
Pupillometry as a method of measuring workload is described. Pupillometric measures provide an indication of momentary fluctuations in central nervous system excitability that occur as cognitive operations are performed; the magnitude of these changes ...
