Pediatric spinal ependymomas: Long‐term surgical outcomes in a cohort of 61 cases

open access: yesPediatric Investigation, EarlyView.
Spinal ependymomas are rare in children, with limited long‐term outcome data. In this retrospective study of 61 pediatric patients undergoing surgical resection, gross total resection was achieved in 62.3% and was associated with favorable functional improvement. Recurrence was observed in 31.1% of cases.

A conserved circadian function for the Neurofibromatosis 1 gene [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Summary: Loss of the Neurofibromatosis 1 (Nf1) protein, neurofibromin, in Drosophila disrupts circadian rhythms of locomotor activity without impairing central clock function, suggesting effects downstream of the clock.

No increased risk of spinal cerebrospinal fluid leak after spinal manipulative therapy: A retrospective cohort study

open access: yesPM&R, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Spinal cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leaks, a rare but debilitating condition, have been described following spinal manipulative therapy (SMT) in case reports. However, the nature of the potential association between SMT and CSF leak is uncertain, and symptoms such as neck pain or headache may reflect preexisting leaks rather than ...
