Acute exercise‐induced improvements in cognition: Role of cerebral blood flow and metabolism
Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract Physical activity is widely recognized for its ability to promote brain health, with acute exercise transiently enhancing cognition and long‐term training attenuating cognitive decline. However, the mechanisms underlying these benefits remain incompletely understood.

Hominoid‐specific calretinin‐immunopositivity of the optic radiation (geniculocalcarine tract)
The Anatomical Record, Volume 309, Issue 5, Page 1343-1367, May 2026.Calretinin‐immunostained coronal section through the primary (V1) and extrastriate (ExSt) cortex of the lar gibbon. Note that the optic radiation (OR) is strongly calretinin‐immunoreactive. This calretinin‐immunopositivity of the OR distinguishes the Hominoidea from other primates in terms of the neurochemistry of the OR.

Direct conversion of human pluripotent stem cells into cranial motor neurons using a piggyBac vector [PDF]
, 2018 Human pluripotent stem cells (PSCs) are widely used for in vitro disease modeling. One of the challenges in the field is represented by the ability of converting human PSCs into specific disease-relevant cell types.

A Core Head, Neck, and Neuroanatomy Syllabus for Physical Therapy Student Education
Clinical Anatomy, Volume 39, Issue 4, Page 436-460, May 2026.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 ...

Mutation in RNF170 Causes Unsteady Gait with Hypertrophic Olivary Degeneration
Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 5, May 2026.ABSTRACT Hypertrophic olivary degeneration (HOD) is a rare form of transsynaptic degeneration resulting from disruption of the Guillain–Mollaret triangle, typically presenting with palatal tremor, ataxia, and nystagmus. Mutations in the Ring Finger Protein 170 (RNF170) gene have been associated with autosomal dominant sensory ataxia.

Visual Behavior in Inline Speed Skating: An Eye‐Tracking Evaluation for Performance Analysis
European Journal of Sport Science, Volume 26, Issue 5, May 2026.ABSTRACT This study analyzed oculomotor behavior (fixations and saccades) in 19 competitive inline speed skaters (5 males, 14 females; aged 10–26 years) from the Aragonese Skating Federation (Spain), comparing high‐performance (N1) and intermediate (N2) groups. Participants completed optometric assessments and eye‐tracking during 200 m time trials on a

Delineation of motoneuron subgroups supplying individual eye muscles in the human oculomotor nucleus
Frontiers in Neuroanatomy, 2014 The oculomotor nucleus (nIII) contains the motoneurons of medial, inferior and superior recti (MR, IR, SR), inferior oblique (IO) and levator palpebrae (LP) muscles. The delineation of motoneuron subgroups for each muscle is well-known in monkey, but not
