Retinoic Acid Receptor Is a Novel Therapeutic Target for Postoperative Cognitive Dysfunction

Pharmaceutics, 2023
Postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD) is a clinical syndrome characterizing by cognitive impairments in the elderly after surgery. There is limited effective treatment available or clear pathological mechanisms known for this syndrome. In this study,

Demyelinating Leprosy Neuropathy: An Unusual and Misleading Electrophysiological Pattern. [PDF]

Muscle Nerve
ABSTRACT Introduction/Aims Peripheral neuropathy, especially mononeuropathy multiplex, is a frequent manifestation of leprosy. Electrodiagnostic studies (EDX) usually show predominant axonal involvement. In this study, we report patients with prominent demyelinating abnormalities consistent with the diagnosis of chronic inflammatory demyelinating ...

Capsaicin protects neuromuscular junctions from the inhibitory effects of botulinum neurotoxin A [PDF]

, 2008
Within 24 hrs after injecting botulinum neurotoxin A (BoNT/A) into the hindlimb, mice lost the toe spread reflex and developed progressive muscle weakness. At the same time, the compound muscle action potential amplitude decreased. Injection of capsaicin

Ultrasonographic evaluation of ulnar innervated muscles in ulnar neuropathy at the elbow

PM&R, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Quantitative muscle ultrasound (qMUS) provides morphological measurements that can support clinical observation of muscle atrophy and weakness. As the use of qMUS continues to expand, and its potential for broader implementation in neuromuscular evaluation grows, there is a clear need for further validation, particularly in ...

Mind Mapping in Orthodontic Education: A Two‐Cohort Action‐Research Study Exploring the Impact of Feedback on Student Learning and Perception

European Journal of Dental Education, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Mind mapping is a visual learning strategy that fosters critical thinking in health professions education, yet it remains underexplored in orthodontic curricula. With varying class sizes, increasing reliance on technology, and fragmented delivery of core orthodontic concepts, there is a need for pedagogical tools that support ...

Optimal Portfolio Choice With Cross‐Impact Propagators

Mathematical Finance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We consider a class of optimal portfolio choice problems in continuous time where the agent's transactions create both transient cross‐impact driven by a matrix‐valued Volterra propagator, as well as temporary price impact. We formulate this problem as the maximization of a revenue‐risk functional, where the agent also exploits available ...
