Abstract Background Falls along with gait‐balance disturbances are important symptoms of idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus (iNPH). Objectives This study aimed to validate the Functional Gait Assessment (FGA) item‐difficulty hierarchy, determine its optimal fall cutoff value, and identify key items for assessing fall risk in iNPH.

Long-time effects of an experimental therapy with mesenchymal stem cells in congenital hydrocephalus [PDF]
Introduction: Bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (BM-MSC) are a potential therapeutic tool due to their ability for migrating and producing neuroprotector factors when they are transplanted in other neurodegenerative diseases.

Genetic Risk Factors in Normal Pressure Hydrocephalus: What We Know and What Is Next
Abstract Knowledge of the genetic factors in normal pressure hydrocephalus (NPH) is rapidly evolving, with significant advances in recent years. We conducted a systematic review examining genetic contributions to NPH risk. Ovid Embase, Ovid Medline, Web of Science, and Cochrane Central were searched from inception through October 14, 2024, for human ...

Distal subgaleal-peritoneal shunt migration into the abdominal wall with subsequent formation of a pre-peritoneal pseudocyst: a rare complication. [PDF]
Distal ventriculo-peritoneal shunt migration and extra-peritoneal CSF pseudocyst formation are unusual complications of shunt placement. We present a 65-year-old-female who received a subgaleal-peritoneal shunt to decompress a post-surgical subgaleal ...

Diffusion probabilistic generative models for accelerated, in‐NICU permanent magnet neonatal MRI
Abstract Purpose Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) enables non‐invasive assessment of brain abnormalities during early life development. Permanent magnet scanners operating in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) facilitate MRI of sick infants, but have long scan times due to lower signal‐to‐noise ratios (SNR) and limited receive coils.

Microcephaly and macrocephaly. A study on anthropometric and clinical data from 308 subjects [PDF]
Head circumference is the auxological parameter that most correlates with developmental anomalies in childhood. Head circumference (HC) two standard deviations (SD) below or above the mean defines microcephaly and macrocephaly, respectively.
