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.

Medical students' initial experiences of the dissection room and interaction with body donors: A qualitative study of professional identity formation, educational benefits, and the experience of Pasifika students

Anatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.
Abstract The first experience of medical students in the dissecting room (DR) likely influences professional identity formation (PIF). Sparse data exist exploring how exposure to the DR and body donors without undertaking dissection influences PIF, or how culture may influence this experience.

Update on Vertigo in Autoimmune Disorders, from Diagnosis to Treatment

Journal of Immunological Research, 2018
The prevalence of autoimmune diseases has been increasing over the last 20 years. The clinical presentation of this large and heterogeneous group of disorders depends on whether the involvement is organ-specific or non-organ-specific. Dizziness, vertigo,

The effectiveness of immersive virtual reality as a student‐centered tool for learning neuroanatomy: A single‐blind randomized controlled trial with physiotherapy students

Anatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.
Abstract Neuroanatomy is a crucial component of the physiotherapy curriculum, but its complexity can lead to “neurophobia” among students. Immersive virtual reality (IVR) offers an innovative alternative to traditional methods by providing interactive and realistic three‐dimensional images of neurological structures.

‘SOMS BrainSpace’: A digital serious game for undergraduate neuroscience

Anatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.
Abstract Neuroanatomy is challenging for many undergraduates, requiring strong visuospatial skills and a deep understanding of complex concepts. This study developed and evaluated SOMS BrainSpace, a digital serious game for neuroanatomy education, using a mixed methods approach.
