Coma and vegetative states: state of the art and proposal of a novel approach combining existing coma scales

Annali dell'Istituto Superiore di Sanità, 2014
Brain damage of various aetiologies can lead to different disorders of consciousness (DOC), varying from coma to vegetative, to minimally conscious states.

The expression of VvMYBPA1 in tobacco remodulates the phenylpropanoid pathway and diverts the synthesis of anthocyanins into condensed tannins in flowers [PDF]

, 2013
Patients in Vegetative State (VS), also known as Unresponsive Wakefulness State (UWS) are deemed to be unaware of themselves or their environment. This is different from patients diagnosed with Minimally Conscious state (MCS), who can have intermittent ...

Effects of Non‐Aspirin Nonsteroidal Anti‐Inflammatory Drugs on Acute Intracerebral Hemorrhage

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Despite celecoxib, a cyclooxygenase‐2 inhibitor, promoting functional recovery from intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) by reducing inflammation‐mediated perihematomal edema in rat models, the evidence of its effects on patient outcomes remains limited.

Cognitive impairment, clinical symptoms and functional disability in patients emerging from the minimally conscious state

NeuroRehabilitation (Reading, MA), 2020
BACKGROUND: Although emergence from the minimally conscious state (eMCS) is associated with symptoms including disorientation, memory and attention impairment, restlessness, and significant functional disability, the neurobehavioral profile of eMCS has ...

General anesthesia reduces complexity and temporal asymmetry of the informational structures derived from neural recordings in Drosophila

, 2020
We apply techniques from the field of computational mechanics to evaluate the statistical complexity of neural recording data from fruit flies. First, we connect statistical complexity to the flies' level of conscious arousal, which is manipulated by ...

Considerations for Issues of Regression to the Mean and Contextual Effects in Clinical Trials for Pain in Rheumatic Diseases

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Recently, there has been growing discussion about how to best assess pain in clinical trials in rheumatic diseases. Reliable measurement of pain outcomes is essential for accurately determining the effectiveness of treatments. Although pain intensity is the most common measure of change in pain trials, other pain‐related measures, such as pain ...

Brain Metabolism but Not Gray Matter Volume Underlies the Presence of Language Function in the Minimally Conscious State (MCS): MCS+ Versus MCS− Neuroimaging Differences

Neurorehabilitation and Neural Repair, 2020
Background. The minimally conscious state (MCS) is subcategorized into MCS− and MCS+, depending on the absence or presence, respectively, of high-level behavioral responses such as command-following. Objective.

3D‐Printed Architected Material for the Generation of Foam‐Based Protective Equipment

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
This study investigates 3D‐printed architected structures as alternatives to traditional foams in protective gear. It focuses on customizing impact strength and damping through design and manufacturing integration. Testing shows these structures outperform conventional foams, offering enhanced customizability, lower weight, and tunable performance ...
