Deciphering the skeletal interoceptive circuitry to control bone homeostasis

BMEMat, EarlyView.
This review introduces the skeletal interoceptive circuitry, covering the ascending signals from bone tissues to the brain (sensors), the central neural circuits that integrate this information and dispatch commands (CPU), and the descending pathways that regulate bone homeostasis (effectors).

Mathematical models for order of mutation problem in myeloproliferative neoplasm: non-additivity and non-commutativity [PDF]

arXiv, 2023
In some patients of myeloproliferative neoplasm, two genetic mutations can be found: JAK2 V617F and TET2. When one mutation is present or not, the other mutation has different effects on regulating gene expressions. Besides, when both mutations are present, the order of occurrence might make a difference.

Variations in Human Trigeminal and Facial Nerve Branches and Foramina Identified by Dissection and Microcomputed Tomography

Clinical Anatomy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The aim of this study was to identify branches of the trigeminal and facial nerves (FNs) relevant to surgical incisions and injections and the scalp block techniques in the frontotemporal region, and to determine their relationships with superficial vascular structures and bony landmarks.

Partitioned Shape Modeling with On-the-Fly Sparse Appearance Learning for Anterior Visual Pathway Segmentation [PDF]

arXiv, 2015
MRI quantification of cranial nerves such as anterior visual pathway (AVP) in MRI is challenging due to their thin small size, structural variation along its path, and adjacent anatomic structures. Segmentation of pathologically abnormal optic nerve (e.g.

Personalized multichannel transcranial direct current electrical stimulation (tDCS) in drug‐resistant epilepsy: A SEEG based open‐labeled study

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective To evaluate the effects of personalized multichannel tDCS on seizure frequency, severity, quality of life, and psychiatric comorbidities in patients with drug‐resistant focal epilepsy. Secondary goals include assessing the safety and feasibility of this approach.

Clinical course of compressive optic neuropathy in skull-base tumors

Journal of Ophthalmology, 2020
Background: Skull-base tumors (SBTs) of the middle and anterior fossae typically cause mass effect on the optic nerve/chiasm complex. The most common of these neoplasms are pituitary adenomas, meningiomas and craniopharyngiomas.

Photo-Thermal Neural Excitation by Extrinsic and Intrinsic Absorbers: A Temperature-Rate Model [PDF]

arXiv, 2012
Infrared neural stimulation (INS) pulses at water-absorbed mid-IR wavelengths could provide a non-invasive and safe modality for stimulating peripheral and cranial nerves and central nervous system neurons. The excitation mechanism underlying INS activation is thought to be mediated by photo-thermal tissue transients, which can also potentially be ...

Surgical Treatment of Caudal Cranial Nerves Schwannomas: Literature Review and Analysis of Own Clinical Observations

Archives in Neurology & Neuroscience, 2019
Caudal cranial nerves schwannomas (CCNS) include tumors growing from glossopharyngeal, vagus, and accessory nerves. Such tumors make up to 2.9-4.0% of all intracranial schwannomas.
