Implementation of bedside and intraoperative neurophysiological monitoring in the diagnosis of functional neurological symptom disorder following spinal surgery: illustrative case
Study Overview The analysis focuses on the application of neurophysiological monitoring techniques in the context of spinal surgery, particularly concerning patients diagnosed with functional neurological symptom disorder (FND). This study examines the implementation of bedside and intraoperative monitoring as a means to better understand and optimize patient outcomes in this complex clinical landscape. The study… Read more: Implementation of bedside and intraoperative neurophysiological monitoring in the diagnosis of functional neurological symptom disorder following spinal surgery: illustrative case
Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation in functional motor disorders: A systematic review of effects and targets
Study Overview The systematic review focuses on the effectiveness of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) as a therapeutic intervention for individuals experiencing functional motor disorders, conditions characterized by impaired movement that do not have an identifiable neurological basis. This review synthesizes data from various studies to draw conclusions about rTMS’s impact on motor function, the… Read more: Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation in functional motor disorders: A systematic review of effects and targets
Massively parallel characterization of adolescent idiopathic scoliosis risk variants
Risk Variant Identification Identifying genetic risk variants associated with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) involves a multifaceted approach that combines genomic analysis with advanced computational techniques. Researchers begin by collecting DNA samples from a large cohort of individuals diagnosed with AIS, juxtaposed with control samples from individuals without the condition. This comparative analysis is crucial for… Read more: Massively parallel characterization of adolescent idiopathic scoliosis risk variants

The impetus for this study arises from an observable trend of increasing morbidity and mortality rates due to various preventable diseases within the region. To address… Read more: Abstracts of the 66th Annual General Conference of the Nigerian Medical Association

Lower Risk of Incident Dementia with SGLT2 Inhibitor Versus DPP-4 Inhibitor Initiation in Patients with Type 2 Diabetes and Prior Traumatic Brain Injury: A Retrospective Cohort Study
CONCLUSION: In this retrospective cohort study, SGLT2 inhibitor use was associated with a lower risk of incident dementia in patients with T2DM and TBI. These hypothesis-generating findings warrant further prospective validation.
Acute sleep deprivation alters hypothalamic neuroinflammatory signaling independent of traumatic brain injury in the mouse
CONCLUSIONS: These findings identify acute sleep deprivation as a potent modulator of early neuroimmune signaling and highlight sleep as a potential therapeutic target following TBI.
Hemodynamic characterization of cardiac dysfunction after traumatic brain injury using a controlled cortical impact model in male rats
Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is associated with cardiovascular dysfunction that worsens clinical outcomes, yet the underlying mechanisms are poorly understood. Clinical studies are limited by heterogeneity, highlighting the need for controlled experimental models. Controlled cortical impact (CCI) provides precise control of injury severity, and invasive pressure-volume (PV) loop analysis allows detailed hemodynamic assessment. Adult male […]
Traumatic brain injury in Sierra Leone: Epidemiological burden and the urgent case for neurosurgical investment
INTRODUCTION: Traumatic brain injury (TBI) represents a significant worldwide public health concern.
Evaluating inclusion of continuous multivariable cognitive scores for operational enrichment of preclinical Alzheimer's disease trials: a retrospective emulation study
CONCLUSIONS: This operational methodology functions as a screening filter to optimize event rates within a highly specific, preselected trial population.
