Pupillometry Reveals the Role of Arousal in a Postexercise Benefit to Executive Function
Brain Sciences, 2021 A single bout of aerobic exercise improves executive function; however, the mechanism(s) underlying this improvement remains unclear. Here, we employed a 20-min bout of aerobic exercise, and at pre- and immediate post-exercise sessions examined executive

Cognitive and Ocular Factors Jointly Determine Pupil Responses under Equiluminance.
PLoS ONE, 2016 Changes in pupil diameter can reflect high-level cognitive signals that depend on central neuromodulatory mechanisms. However, brain mechanisms that adjust pupil size are also exquisitely sensitive to changes in luminance and other events that would be ...

Brain StimulationBackground: Transcutaneous auricular vagus nerve stimulation (tVNS or taVNS) is a non-invasive method of electrical stimulation of the afferent pathway of the vagus nerve, suggested to drive changes in putative physiological markers of noradrenergic ...

Tonic Pupil Following Traumatic Hyphema: Case Report
Türk Oftalmoloji Dergisi, 2013 A 7-year-old girl was admitted to our clinic after crash injury with air gun pellet in her right eye. There was an intense anterior chamber reaction and hyphema on the biomicroscopic examination. During the control examination after treatment of hyphema

Morphometric study of the ciliary ganglion and its pertinent intraorbital procedure
Folia Morphologica, 2020 BACKGROUND: Ciliary ganglion (CG) can be easily injured without notice in many intraorbital procedures. Surgical procedures approaching the lateral side of the orbit are at risk of CG injury which results in transient mydriasis and tonic pupil.

A Rare Case in the Emergency Department: Holmes-Adie Syndrome
Turkish Journal of Emergency Medicine, 2015 SUMMARY: Holmes-Adie syndrome (HAS) is a rare syndrome characterized by tonic pupil and the absence of deep tendon reflexes. HAS was first described in 1931 and is usually idiopathic, with incidences reported to be 4-7 per 100,000.

Gut microbiome and aging—A dynamic interplay of microbes, metabolites, and the immune system
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Age‐dependent shifts in microbial communities engender shifts in microbial metabolite profiles. These in turn drive shifts in barrier surface permeability of the gut and brain and induce immune activation. When paired with preexisting age‐related chronic inflammation this increases the risk of neuroinflammation and neurodegenerative diseases.

Microbiome‐blood–brain barrier interactions in aging — mechanisms and therapeutic potential
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Aging reshapes the gut microbiome (↓SCFA‐producing commensals; ↑pro‐inflammatory outputs), shifting circulating metabolites (↓SCFAs; ↑LPS, ↑TMAO, ↑PAA) that act at the BBB to increase nonspecific transcytosis, alter transport, and promote astrocyte reactivity, heightening brain vulnerability.
