When good bugs go bad: Epidemiology and antimicrobial resistance profiles of Corynebacterium striatum, an emerging multidrug-resistant, opportunistic pathogen [PDF]
Infections with Corynebacterium striatum have been described in the literature over the last 2 decades, with the majority being bacteremia, central line infections, and occasionally, endocarditis.

Corynebacterium striatumāAssociated Pyogenic Osteomyelitis With Direct Extension From Postoperative Empyema [PDF]
Corynebacterium striatum can cause postoperative empyema. C. striatumāassociated empyema may be associated with osteomyelitis. Rifampicin is a viable therapeutic option for C. striatum infection.

Causal contribution and dynamical encoding in the striatum during evidence accumulation [PDF]
A broad range of decision-making processes involve gradual accumulation of evidence over time, but the neural circuits responsible for this computation are not yet established.

The Functional DRD3 Ser9Gly Polymorphism (rs6280) Is Pleiotropic, Affecting Reward as Well as Movement [PDF]
Abnormalities of motivation and behavior in the context of reward are a fundamental component of addiction and mood disorders. Here we test the effect of a functional missense mutation in the dopamine 3 receptor (DRD3) gene (ser9gly, rs6280) on reward ...

On the role of the striatum in response inhibition. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Stopping a manual response requires suppression of the primary motor cortex (M1) and has been linked to activation of the striatum. Here, we test three hypotheses regarding the role of the striatum in stopping: striatum activation during ...

Dopaminergic and Cholinergic Modulation of Large Scale Networks in silico Using Snudda
Neuromodulation is present throughout the nervous system and serves a critical role for circuit function and dynamics. The computational investigations of neuromodulation in large scale networks require supportive software platforms. Snudda is a software

Hemichorea Neglect after Stroke
We report a case of a 74-year-old Japanese woman who, after left thalamic infarction, developed right hemichorea and its neglect. This rare finding was associated with ipsi- and contralateral brain perfusion changes, presumably reflecting de ...

Dystonia: sparse synapses for D2 receptors in striatum of a DYT1 knock-out mouse model [PDF]
Dystonia pathophysiology has been partly linked to downregulation and dysfunction of dopamine D2 receptors in striatum. We aimed to investigate the possible morpho-structural correlates of D2 receptor downregulation in the striatum of a DYT1 Tor1a mouse ...
