Functional neurological disorders: The neurological assessment as treatment [PDF]

open access: yesNeurophysiologie Clinique, 2014
The neurologist's role in patients with functional disorders has traditionally been limited to making the diagnosis, excluding a ‘disease’ and pronouncing the symptoms to be ‘non-organic’ or ‘psychogenic’. In this article, I argue that there are multiple opportunities during routine assessment of a patient with a functional disorder for the neurologist

Autonomic arousals contribute to brain fluid pulsations during sleep

open access: yesNeuroImage, 2022
During sleep, slow waves of neuro-electrical activity engulf the human brain and aid in the consolidation of memories. Recent research suggests that these slow waves may also promote brain health by facilitating the removal of metabolic waste, possibly ...

In vivo MRI is sensitive to remyelination in a nonhuman primate model of multiple sclerosis

open access: yeseLife, 2023
Remyelination is crucial to recover from inflammatory demyelination in multiple sclerosis (MS). Investigating remyelination in vivo using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is difficult in MS, where collecting serial short-interval scans is challenging ...

Functional neurological disorder in the emergency department [PDF]

open access: yesAcademic Emergency Medicine, 2021
AbstractWe provide a narrative review of functional neurological disorder (FND, or conversion disorder) for the emergency department (ED). Diagnosis of FND has shifted from a “rule‐out” disorder to one now based on the recognition of positive clinical signs, allowing the ED physician to make a suspected or likely diagnosis of FND.

open access: yesJournal of Neurology, Neurosurgery & Psychiatry, 2020
From the simple message of ‘I will please’ (Latin placēbō ) encapsulated in a sugar pill, to the famous theatrics of Jean-Martin Charcot’s hypnotic seizure inductions and treatments (figure 1), implicit and explicit narratives of healing and illness have been noted to exert a particularly strong influence on functional neurological disorder (FND ...
