Performance of cryptogenic new onset refractory status epilepticus score in a Brazilian cohort after testing for antineuronal antibodies with tissue-based and cell-based assays. [PDF]

Epilepsia
Abstract Objective This study was undertaken to describe a case series of Brazilian new onset refractory status epilepticus (NORSE) patients and evaluate the sensitivity and specificity of a clinical score to predict cryptogenic etiology (c‐NORSE score) after autoimmune encephalitis (AE) testing.

Developing a Linguistically Valid Japanese Version of the Chronic Pain Attribution Scale: Translation and Cultural Adaptation Process. [PDF]

Neuropsychopharmacol Rep
This study reports the development and linguistic validation of the Japanese version of the Chronic Pain Attribution Scale. The tool captures culturally nuanced beliefs about chronic pain causes and provides a foundation for research on treatment responses in Japanese‐speaking populations.

Central amygdala-to-pre-Bötzinger complex neurotransmission is direct and inhibitory. [PDF]

Eur J Neurosci
Neurons in the central amygdala project axons to the brainstem pre‐Bötzinger complex, which generates the rhythm for breathing. Light activation of channel rhodopsin revealed active inhibitory synapses that were predominantly, but not exclusively, mediated by GABAA receptors.

Optically driven microtools with an antibody‐immobilised surface for on‐site cell assembly

IET Nanobiotechnology, Volume 17, Issue 3, Page 197-203, May 2023., 2023
We developed the method for assembling single cells to form a cell cluster that is intended for use as an organ model. Cells are assembled under an optical microscope with single cell resolution by using optically‐driven microstructures with an antibody‐immobilised surface as linkers in a cell‐trapping microfluidic device.

The reliability of biomedical science: A case history of a maturing experimental field

BioEssays, Volume 44, Issue 6, June 2022., 2022
We have a growing understanding of exactly how inositol phospholipids contribute to several cellular functions, but we still do not understand why eating supplementary inositol ameliorates some metabolic diseases. This illustrates an important difference between biomedical problems that are and are not currently susceptible to precise mechanistic ...

Advances, Challenges, and Future Perspectives of Microwave Reflectometry for Plasma Position and Shape Control on Future Nuclear Fusion Devices

Sensors, 2023
Providing energy from fusion and finding ways to scale up the fusion process to commercial proportions in an efficient, economical, and environmentally benign way is one of the grand challenges for engineering. Controlling the burning plasma in real-time

Weyl–Wigner description of massless Dirac plasmas: ab initio quantum plasmonics for monolayer graphene

New Journal of Physics, 2022
We derive, from first principles and using the Weyl–Wigner formalism, a fully quantum kinetic model describing the dynamics in phase space of Dirac electrons in single-layer graphene.
