Increasing Incidence of Facial Nerve Disorders in the United States from 2007 to 2022
In this study of national administrative claims data from 2007 to 2022, the mean annual incidence of facial nerve disorders was 30.5 cases per 100,000 adults. The mean annual incidence of Bell's palsy alone was found to be 24.5/100,000, with increasing annual incidence rates during the study period.

Young, but not adult, Fmr1 knockout (KO) mice display audiogenic seizures (AGS) that can be prevented by inhibiting extracellular signal-regulated kinases 1/2 (ERK1/2) phosphorylation. In order to identify the cerebral regions involved in these phenomena,

Evidence for an additive inhibitory component of contrast adaptation [PDF]
The latency of visual responses generally decreases as contrast increases. Recording in the lateral geniculate nucleus (LGN), we find that response latency increases with increasing contrast in ON cells for some visual stimuli. We propose that this surprising latency trend can be explained if ON cells rest further from threshold at higher contrasts ...

Robust Estimation of Self-Exciting Generalized Linear Models with Application to Neuronal Modeling [PDF]
We consider the problem of estimating self-exciting generalized linear models from limited binary observations, where the history of the process serves as the covariate. We analyze the performance of two classes of estimators, namely the $\ell_1$-regularized maximum likelihood and greedy estimators, for a canonical self-exciting process and ...

A theoretical framework for retinal computations: insights from textbook knowledge [PDF]
Neural circuits in the retina divide the incoming visual scene into more than a dozen distinct representations that are sent on to central brain areas, such as the lateral geniculate nucleus and the superior colliculus. The retina can be viewed as a parallel image processor made of a multitude of small computational devices.
