Speech Biomarkers for Quantifying Effects of Subthalamic Deep Brain Stimulation in Parkinson's Disease

open access: yesAnnals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective Dysarthria is one of the most common and disabling side effects of subthalamic nucleus deep brain stimulation (STN‐DBS) in Parkinson's disease (PD). Stimulation often exacerbates speech dysfunction beyond the effects of PD progression, likely because of current spread to structures surrounding the STN.

Neuroanatomical diversity in Teleocichla with new volumetric and histological insights into the encephalon of Teleocichla monogramma Kullander 1988

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Teleocichla comprises small cichlids that inhabit the rapid streams of Amazonian rivers; however, there has been limited research on their encephalon morphology. This study examined the neuroanatomy of four species, focusing on volumetric measurements of their encephalon subregions, and providing a histological description of the encephalon of

Longitudinal Magnetic Resonance Imaging Study Shows Progressive Pyramidal And Callosal Damage In Friedreich's Ataxia.

open access: yes, 2016
Spinal cord and peripheral nerves are classically known to be damaged in Friedreich's ataxia, but the extent of cerebral involvement in the disease and its progression over time are not yet characterized.

Production of 3D printed biomodels of the canine brain for veterinary neuroanatomy teaching

open access: yesAnatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.
Abstract Teaching neuroanatomy presents multiple challenges to both students and teachers, as it is a subject with highly dense content that commonly causes the development of aversion by students, a phenomenon referred to as “neurophobia,” which has been documented in human and veterinary medicine students.

Modern competency‐based teaching of human sexual development

open access: yesAnatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.
Abstract Embryology is an integral part of anatomy and a key subject in basic medical education. The development of the sexual tract, which is closely associated with the formation of the urinary tract and the organs of continence, is particularly complex and relevant for many medical disciplines.

Fractional anisotropy in white matter tracts of very-low-birth-weight infants

open access: yes, 2007
Background: Advances in neonatal intensive care have not yet reduced the high incidence of neurodevelopmental disability among very-low-birth-weight (VLBW) infants. As neurological deficits are related to white-matter injury, early detection is important.

Lower Striatal and Cortical Calretinin Interneuron Density Associated With Altered Social Behavior in Cntnap2 Knockout Mice

open access: yesAutism Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Variants in the CNTNAP2 gene, encoding the cell adhesion molecule CASPR2, have been identified as genetic risk factors for autism spectrum disorder (ASD). However, the mechanisms through which CNTNAP2 dysfunction alters circuit function remain unknown.

The Serotonin 2B (5‐HT2B) Receptor: A Narrative Review of Preclinical and Clinical Evidence on the Safety Considerations and Therapeutic Potential for the Treatment of Depression

open access: yesClinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Major depressive disorder (MDD) and treatment‐resistant depression (TRD) remain leading causes of disability, providing the impetus for receptor‐level treatment strategies beyond monoamine reuptake. The serotonin 5‐HT2B receptor (5‐HT2BR) is uniquely positioned at the interface of central‐antidepressant mechanisms and peripheral cardiac risks.

G51D α-synuclein mutation causes a novel parkinsonian-pyramidal syndrome.

open access: yes, 2013
International audienceTo date, 3 rare missense mutations in the SNCA (α-synuclein) gene and the more frequent duplications or triplications of the wild-type gene are known to cause a broad array of clinical and pathological symptoms in familial Parkinson
