The microglial "activation" continuum: from innate to adaptive responses [PDF]
Microglia are innate immune cells of myeloid origin that take up residence in the central nervous system (CNS) during embryogenesis. While classically regarded as macrophage-like cells, it is becoming increasingly clear that reactive microglia play more ...

Forecasting Disease Burden In Philippines: A Symbolic Regression Analysis [PDF]
Burden of disease measures the impact of living with illness and injury and dying prematurely and it is increasing worldwide leading cause of death both global and national. This paper aimed to propose an index of diseases and evaluate a mathematical model to describe the number of burden of disease by cause in the Philippines from 1990 - 2016. Through

What Does Iron Mean to an Oligodendrocyte?
ABSTRACT Iron is essential for life and plays a key role in multiple fundamental cellular functions. The brain has the highest rate of energy consumption, and within the brain, oligodendrocytes have the highest level of oxidative metabolism per volume. Oligodendrocytes also stain the strongest for iron.

P2T2: a Physically-primed deep-neural-network approach for robust $T_{2}$ distribution estimation from quantitative $T_{2}$-weighted MRI [PDF]
Estimating $T_2$ relaxation time distributions from multi-echo $T_2$-weighted MRI ($T_2W$) data can provide valuable biomarkers for assessing inflammation, demyelination, edema, and cartilage composition in various pathologies, including neurodegenerative disorders, osteoarthritis, and tumors.

ABSTRACT Multiple sclerosis (MS) is the most common non‐infectious inflammatory CNS disease, characterized by progressive neurodegeneration and focal demyelinated lesions. Traditionally considered an autoimmune disease, MS is driven by the immune system's attack on CNS myelin, resulting in cumulative disability.

The effect of realistic geometries on the susceptibility-weighted MR signal in white matter [PDF]
Purpose: To investigate the effect of realistic microstructural geometry on the susceptibility-weighted magnetic resonance (MR) signal in white matter (WM), with application to demyelination. Methods: Previous work has modeled susceptibility-weighted signals under the assumption that axons are cylindrical. In this work, we explore the implications of
