MRI and Neuropsychological Correlates of Carbon Monoxide Exposure: A Case Report [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
A 45-year-old woman experienced long-term, chronic exposure to carbon monoxide in the restaurant kitchen where she was employed as a cook. After returning to the restaurant after 5 days off work, she noticed that her symptoms returned immediately; she ...

Freezing of Gait as a Complication of Pallidal Deep Brain Stimulation in DYT- KMT2B Patients with Evidence of Striatonigral Degeneration [PDF]

open access: yesMov Disord Clin Pract. 2022 Aug 9;9(7):992-996
Background: Mutations in KMT2B are a recognized cause of early-onset complex dystonia, with deep brain stimulation (DBS) of the internal globus pallidus (GPi-DBS) being an effective treatment. However, gait impairment, particularly freezing of gait (FOG), remains a significant challenge in DYT-KMT2B patients post-DBS.

Globus Automation Services: Research process automation across the space-time continuum [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2022
Research process automation -- the reliable, efficient, and reproducible execution of linked sets of actions on scientific instruments, computers, data stores, and other resources -- has emerged as an essential element of modern science. We report here on new services within the Globus research data management platform that enable the specification of ...

Cognition, behavior, and the globus pallidus [PDF]

open access: yesScience, 2016
Neuroscience Deep inside the brain, the external segment of the globus pallidus receives many inputs from the neighboring basal ganglia. Its role in basic cognitive functions has rarely been measured directly. While monkeys were learning a complex task, Schechtman et al. recorded discharges from prototypical neurons in the structure. The animals had to

Brain putamen volume changes in newly-diagnosed patients with obstructive sleep apnea. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is accompanied by cognitive, motor, autonomic, learning, and affective abnormalities. The putamen serves several of these functions, especially motor and autonomic behaviors, but whether global and specific sub-regions of ...

Functional Connectivity and Volumetrics Improve Outcome Prediction for Deep Brain Stimulation in Parkinson's Disease

open access: yesMovement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Deep brain stimulation (DBS) targeting the subthalamic nucleus (STN) can effectively treat motor symptoms of Parkinson's disease (PD). However, optimal patient selection remains challenging due to the inadequacy of outcome predictors.

MRI of bilirubin encephalopathy (kernicterus): A case series of 4 patients from Sub-Saharan Africa, May 2017

open access: yesRadiology Case Reports, 2018
Characteristic magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) findings in patients with chronic kernicterus are bilateral and symmetric T2-weighted hyperintensities in the globus pallidus.

Thalamic ventrobasal stimulation for pain relief: probable mechanisms, pathways and neurotransmitters

open access: yesArquivos de Neuro-Psiquiatria, 1994
Thalamic ventrobasal (VB) stimulation, first performed by Mazars, in 1961, is a valuable means for treating central and deafferentation pain. The way it acts to achieve pain relief, however, is still a matter of controversy.

Decorrelation by recurrent inhibition in heterogeneous neural circuits [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2011
The activity of neurons is correlated, and this correlation affects how the brain processes information. We study the neural circuit mechanisms of correlations by analyzing a network model characterized by strong and heterogeneous interactions: excitatory input drives the fluctuations of neural activity, which are counterbalanced by inhibitory feedback.

Bilateral lesions of the globus pallidus in a young woman

open access: yesJournal of the Belgian Society of Radiology, 2014
We report a case of stroke due to cocaine abuse in a 30-year-old woman. The initial examinations pointing to this diagnosis were CT and MRI. Magnetic Resonance Imaging revealed bilateral globus pallidus infarction characterized by restricted Diffusion with low ADC values. There was also a partial hemorrhagic component confirmed on T2* sequence.
