Auditory Stimulation of Slow‐Wave Sleep Promotes Recovery after Brain Injury in an Animal Model

Annals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective Traumatic brain injury (TBI) significantly reduces the quality of life for millions of survivors worldwide, causing persistent brain tissue damage and cognitive impairments, with no established therapeutic interventions currently available.

Discriminability of Single and Multichannel Intracortical Microstimulation within Somatosensory Cortex

Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2016
The addition of tactile and proprioceptive feedback to neuroprosthetic limbs is expected to significantly improve the control of these devices. Intracortical microstimulation (ICMS) of somatosensory cortex is a promising method of delivering this ...

Suppressing sensorimotor activity modulates the discrimination of auditory emotions but not speaker identity [PDF]

, 2010
Our ability to recognize the emotions of others is a crucial feature of human social cognition. Functional neuroimaging studies indicate that activity in sensorimotor cortices is evoked during the perception of emotion.

Gut–Brain Axis Modulation by Short‐Chain Fatty Acids Exerts Disease‐Modifying Effects in a Murine Model of Drug‐Resistant Epilepsy

Annals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective Drug‐resistant epilepsy (DRE) remains a clinical challenge, as therapies modifying disease trajectory are lacking. Increasing evidence implicates gut microbiota dysbiosis in epilepsy pathophysiology, with short‐chain fatty acids (SCFAs) emerging as key microbial metabolites with neuroprotective and anti‐inflammatory properties.

Investigating the effects of excitatory and inhibitory somatosensory rTMS on somatosensory functioning in the acute and subacute phases of stroke: a preliminary double-blind and randomized trial

Frontiers in Human Neuroscience
BackgroundRepetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) targeting the primary somatosensory cortex (S1) has a potential effect on somatosensory functioning following a stroke.

Diabetes and the Metabolic Syndrome as Drivers of Neurodegeneration: Convergent Mechanisms Linking Peripheral Neuropathy and Dementia

Annals of Neurology, EarlyView.
The metabolic syndrome, a state of progressive metabolic dysfunction, injures the peripheral and central nervous systems, promoting peripheral neuropathy (PN) and cognitive impairment (CI), respectively. We posit PN and CI are connected in the metabolic syndrome framework, built on the premise that neurons, whether in the peripheral or central nervous ...

Study of EEGs from somatosensory cortex and Alzheimer's disease sources [PDF]

, 2012
This study is to investigate the electroencephalogram (EEG) differences generated from a normal and Alzheimer’s disease (AD) sources. We also investigate the effects of brain tissue distortions due to AD on EEG.

Atypical Predictive Processing Is Associated With Sensory Over‐Responsivity in Autism

Autism Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Autism is characterized by sensory processing atypicalities including sensory over‐responsivity (SOR), a heightened negative response to sensory stimuli. Although the neural mechanisms underlying SOR are not fully understood, SOR has been associated with sensory‐limbic hyper‐reactivity during sensory stimulation.

Somatosensation Evoked by Cortical Surface Stimulation of the Human Primary Somatosensory Cortex

Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2019
Electrical stimulation of the primary somatosensory cortex using intracranial electrodes is crucial for the evocation of artificial somatosensations, typically tactile sensations associated with specific regions of the body, in brain-machine interface ...

Cortical pain responses in human infants [PDF]

, 2006
Despite the recent increase in our understanding of the development of pain processing, it is still not known whether premature infants are capable of processing pain at a cortical level.
