Probabilistic Lesion Mapping to Optimize Thalamotomy Targets for Focal Hand Dystonia
Annals of Neurology, EarlyView.Objective Focal hand dystonia (FHD) severely impairs task‐specific motor control, yet the optimal surgical target for stereotactic intervention remains uncertain. This study aimed to identify the precise thalamic lesion site associated with symptomatic improvement and to clarify its network connectivity. Methods We retrospectively analyzed 164 patients

Hominoid‐specific calretinin‐immunopositivity of the optic radiation (geniculocalcarine tract)
The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.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.

Moving beyond neurophobia to cultivate the neuroquisitive learner
Anatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.Abstract “Neurophobia,” a pervasive fear of the neurological sciences, poses a significant barrier in medical education, affecting learners and physicians worldwide. Its consequences are far‐reaching, contributing to a limited neurology workforce and diminished confidence among non‐specialists in managing neurological conditions.

Sweetspot Mapping in Deep Brain Stimulation: Strengths and Limitations of Current Approaches
Neuromodulation: Technology at the Neural Interface, EarlyView., 2021 Abstract Objectives Open questions remain regarding the optimal target, or sweetspot, for deep brain stimulation (DBS) in, for example, Parkinson's disease. Previous studies introduced different methods of mapping DBS effects to determine sweetspots. While having a direct impact on surgical targeting and postoperative programming in DBS, these methods ...

Show Me the Brain!!: A modern approach to neuroanatomy education
Anatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.Abstract Show Me the Brain!! (SMtB) is a digital system for interactive graphics that is designed to support instruction in neuroanatomy and neuroscience. It will soon be made open‐source and freely available. SMtB bridges medical and traditional neuroanatomy instruction with the computational systems and representational conventions common in ...

Motor Evoked Potentials Improve Targeting in Deep Brain Stimulation Surgery
Neuromodulation: Technology at the Neural Interface, EarlyView., 2021 Abstract Objectives One of the main challenges posed by the surgical deep brain stimulation (DBS) procedure is the successful targeting of the structures of interest and avoidance of side effects, especially in asleep surgery. Here, intraoperative motor evoked potentials (MEPs) might serve as tool to identify the pyramidal tract.

Subthalamic nucleus high-frequency stimulation restores altered electrophysiological properties of cortical neurons in parkinsonian rat. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Electrophysiological recordings performed in parkinsonian patients and animal models have confirmed the occurrence of alterations in firing rate and pattern of basal ganglia neurons, but the outcome of these changes in thalamo-cortical networks remains ...

A Core Head, Neck, and Neuroanatomy Syllabus for Physical Therapy Student Education
Clinical Anatomy, EarlyView.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 ...

Neuromodulation: Technology at the Neural Interface, EarlyView., 2021 Abstract Objective Published reports on directional deep brain stimulation (DBS) have been limited to small, single‐center investigations. Therapeutic window (TW) is used to describe the range of stimulation amplitudes achieving symptom relief without side effects.
