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.

Decrease in REM latency and changes in sleep quality parallel serotonergic damage and recovery after MDMA: a longitudinal study over 180 days [PDF]

, 2008
The recreational drug ecstasy [3,4-methylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA)], has been found to selectively damage brain serotonin neurons in experimental animals, and probably in human MDMA users, but detailed morphometric analyses and parallel ...

Turning Slowly Predicts Future Diagnosis of Parkinson's Disease: A Decade‐Long Longitudinal Analysis

Annals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective Wearable technology allows accurate measurement of turning while walking, with cross‐sectional studies indicating that difficulty turning presents even in preclinical phases of Parkinson's disease. The aim of our study was to quantify rate of change of turning performance in a cohort of older adults, and test whether turning decline can ...

Relationship between rapid eye-movement activity during nocturnal sleep and developmental quotient in infants with developmental disabilities [PDF]

, 2009
－Rapid eye-movement (REM) activity during nocturnal sleep was investigated in 27 infants with developmental disabilities. A relationship was found between REM sleep degree of REM and developmental psychomotor function.

Disruption of the Blood–Brain Barrier Predicts Progression of Cerebral Small Vessel Disease White Matter Hyperintensities

Annals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective The objective of this study was to test if blood–brain barrier (BBB) disruption, detected using dynamic susceptibility contrast (DSC) imaging, would predict progression of white matter hyperintensities (WMHs) over the subsequent year in patients with chronic cerebrovascular disease. Methods The study included patients with a history of stroke

Structural Brain Alterations Associated with Rapid Eye Movement Sleep Behavior Disorder in Parkinson’s Disease

Scientific Reports, 2016
Characterized by dream-enactment motor manifestations arising from rapid eye movement (REM) sleep, REM sleep behavior disorder (RBD) is frequently encountered in Parkinson’s disease (PD). Yet the specific neurostructural changes associated with RBD in PD

Serum p‐tau217 Is a Prognostic Indicator of Cognitive Impairment in Idiopathic REM Sleep Behavior Disorder

Annals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective Assess the performance of serum phosphorylated tau 217 (p‐tau217) and neurofilament light chain (NfL) in predicting risk of cognitive impairment or phenoconversion to dementia in individuals with iRBD. Methods We measured serum p‐tau217 and NfL levels by electrochemiluminescence across 4 polysomnographically confirmed iRBD cohorts (n = 300 ...

Regulation of REM sleep in mice: The role of dopamine and serotonin function in the basolateral amygdala

Neuroscience Research
Animals have a sleep cycle that involves the repetitive occurrence of non-rapid eye movement (NREM) sleep and rapid eye movement (REM) sleep. In a previous study, we discovered that a transient increase in dopamine (DA) levels in the basolateral amygdala

Violence in sleep [PDF]

, 2017
Although generally considered as mutually exclusive, violence and sleep can coexist. Violence related to the sleep period is probably more frequent than generally assumed and can be observed in various conditions including parasomnias (such as arousal ...

Adherence to the Mediterranean and Mediterranean‐Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension Intervention for Neurodegenerative Delay (MIND) Diets and Parkinson's Disease Incidence in Women: Results from the Prospective E3N Cohort

Annals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective The evidence regarding adherence to dietary patterns and Parkinson's disease (PD) risk is inconsistent. Because of the long prodromal PD phase, reverse causation represents a major threat to investigations of diet in relation to PD. We examined whether adherence to the Mediterranean (MED) and Mediterranean‐Dietary Approaches to Stop ...
