Facial nerve schwannoma: Case report and brief review of the literature
Schwannomas are rare nerve sheath tumors that can occur throughout the body, and are symptomatic based on location, size, and impingement on adjacent structures. These tumors are often benign lesions and occur sporadically or from genetic conditions such

Persistent Thalamic Sound Processing Despite Profound Cochlear Denervation
Neurons at higher stages of sensory processing can partially compensate for a sudden drop in input from the periphery through a homeostatic plasticity process that increases the gain on weak afferent inputs.

Two new genera of Laophontidae (Copepoda: Harpacticoida) without sexual dimorphism in the endopods of the swimming legs [PDF]
Two new monospecific genera of the harpacticoid family Laophontidae T. Scott, 1905 are described here. Apistophonte wasiniensis gen. et sp. n. was found along the Kenyan coast and Propephonte duangitensis gen. et sp. n.

ABSTRACT Neuronal extracellular vesicles (microvesicles and exosomes) are emerging secreted vesicular signals that play important roles in the CNS. Currently, little is known about how glutamatergic signalling affects the subcellular localisation of exosome precursor intraluminal vesicles (ILVs), microRNA (miR) packaging into ILVs and in vivo spreading

Spatiotemporal adaptation through corticothalamic loops: A hypothesis [PDF]
The thalamus is the major gate to the cortex and its control over cortical responses is well established. Cortical feedback to the thalamus is, in turn, the anatomically dominant input to relay cells, yet its influence on thalamic processing has been difficult to interpret.

ABSTRACT This nationwide population‐based ecological study investigated changes in the incidence of Bell's palsy (BP) in South Korea during the COVID‐19 pandemic. Patients diagnosed with BP between January 2017 and December 2022 were analyzed. Considering the unique progression of the COVID‐19 pandemic and corresponding public health responses in South

The Dynamics of Image Processing by Feature Maps in the Primary Visual Cortex [PDF]
The operational characteristics of a linear neural network image processing system based on the brain's vision system are investigated. The final stage of the network consists of edge detectors of various orienations arranged in a feature map, corresponding to the primary visual cortex, or V1.

Receptive Field and Feature Map Formation in the Primary Visual Cortex via Hebbian Learning with Inhibitory Feedback [PDF]
A linear neural network is proposed for mamalian vision system in which backward connections from the primary visual cortex (V1) to the lateral geniculate nucleus play a key role. The backward connections control the flow of information from the LGN to V1 in such a way as to maximize the rate of transfer of information from the LGN to V1.
