Cuneiform Nucleus Stimulation Can Assist Gait Training to Promote Locomotor Recovery in Individuals With Incomplete Tetraplegia

Annals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective Impaired ability to induce stepping after incomplete spinal cord injury (SCI) can limit the efficacy of locomotor training, often leaving patients wheelchair‐bound. The cuneiform nucleus (CNF), a key mesencephalic locomotor control center, modulates the activity of spinal locomotor centers via the reticulospinal tract.

A Core Head, Neck, and Neuroanatomy Syllabus for Physical Therapy Student Education

Clinical Anatomy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Head, neck, and neuroanatomy are essential components of physical therapy education due to their broad clinical applications. Detailed syllabi exist for medical students, yet none have been developed for physical therapy. This study aimed to produce an International Federation of Associations of Anatomists core head, neck, and neuroanatomy ...

Severity of effect considerations regarding the use of mutation as a toxicological endpoint for risk assessment: A report from the 8th International Workshop on Genotoxicity Testing (IWGT)

Environmental and Molecular Mutagenesis, EarlyView.
Abstract Exposure levels without appreciable human health risk may be determined by dividing a point of departure on a dose–response curve (e.g., benchmark dose) by a composite adjustment factor (AF). An “effect severity” AF (ESAF) is employed in some regulatory contexts.

Disruption of the basal body protein POC1B results in autosomal-recessive cone-rod dystrophy [PDF]

, 2014
Exome sequencing revealed a homozygous missense mutation (c.317C>G [p.Arg106Pro]) in POC1B, encoding POC1 centriolar protein B, in three siblings with autosomal-recessive cone dystrophy or cone-rod dystrophy and compound-heterozygous POC1B mutations (c ...

Identification of a De Novo MAGEL2 Pathogenic Variant in Schaaf–Yang Syndrome and the Importance of Paternal Allele Confirmation

Journal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis, EarlyView.
This study reports a de novo MAGEL2 pathogenic variant in a patient with Schaaf–Yang syndrome, confirmed through methylation‐sensitive analysis. Combining genomic sequencing with methylation assays helps accurately determine the parental origin of MAGEL2 mutations.

Downbeat Nystagmus Induced by Sedation in Lasik

Case Reports in Ophthalmological Medicine, 2012
Nystagmus was elicited during lasik under sedation in two patients that were treated for depression. Nystagmus was not present before or after surgery. Nystagmus can be pharmacologically induced and can be a hazard to refractive surgery.
