An in vivo intracellular study of auditory thalamic neurons [PDF]
The intrinsic electrophysiological properties of medial geniculate body (MGB) neurons and their responses to noise bursts/pure tones were examined in the pentobarbital anesthetized guinea pig through intracellular recording. Discharge rate was calculated

Brain Imaging Phenotypes Associated with Polygenic Risk for Essential Tremor
Abstract Essential tremor (ET) is a common movement disorder with a strong genetic basis. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), particularly diffusion‐weighted MRI (dMRI) and T1 MRI, have been used to identify brain abnormalities of ET patients. However, the mechanisms by which genetic risk affects the brain to render individuals vulnerable to ET remain ...

Relationships between human auditory cortical structure and function [PDF]
The human auditory cortex comprises multiple areas, largely distributed across the supratemporal plane, but the precise number and configuration of auditory areas and their functional significance have not yet been clearly established.

Cholinergic System Changes in Dopa‐Unresponsive Freezing of Gait in Parkinson's Disease
Abstract Background Freezing of gait (FoG) is a debilitating mobility disturbance that becomes increasingly resistant to dopaminergic pharmacotherapies with advancing Parkinson's disease (PD). The pathophysiology underlying the response of FoG to dopaminergic treatment is poorly understood.

Hippocampus Modulates Vocalizations Responses at Early Auditory Centers
Despite its prominence in learning and memory, hippocampal influence in early auditory processing centers remains unknown. Here, we examined how hippocampal activity modulates sound-evoked responses in the auditory midbrain and thalamus using ...

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.

Abstract Objective Spontaneous cerebrospinal fluid (sCSF) leaks of lateral skull base have little consensus on optimal management. We synthesized and evaluated current literature via systematic and meta‐analysis to compare the success rates and complications of the different surgical techniques for middle cranial fossa (MCF) sCSF leak repair.

Spindle oscillations are generated in the dorsal thalamus and modulated by the thalamic reticular nucleus [PDF]
Spindle waves occur during the early stage of slow wave sleep and are thought to arise in the thalamic reticular nucleus (TRN), causing inhibitory postsynaptic potential spindle-like oscillations in the dorsal thalamus that are propagated to the cortex ...

Developmental disorders of vision [PDF]
This review of developmental disorders of vision focuses on a few of the many disorders that disrupt visual development. Given the enormity of the human visual system in the primate brain and complexity of visual development, however, there are likely ...
