Stereotypes about tourette syndrome and associations with social media use: results from a large-scale german population survey
Understanding Tourette Syndrome Tourette syndrome (TS) is a neurological disorder characterized by the presence of motor and vocal tics. These involuntary movements and sounds typically emerge in childhood, with onset usually occurring between the ages of 5 and 10. The tics may manifest as repetitive movements, such as blinking or head jerking, or as verbalizations… Read more: Stereotypes about tourette syndrome and associations with social media use: results from a large-scale german population survey
When Mind Hurts the Skin: A Rare Case of Dermatitis Artefacta in an Epileptic Female
Case Presentation A 35-year-old female patient with a longstanding history of generalized epilepsy presented to the dermatology clinic with peculiar skin lesions that had become increasingly concerning. Her medical history revealed that the epileptic condition was managed with a combination of anticonvulsant medications, including lamotrigine and levetiracetam, which she had been taking for over ten… Read more: When Mind Hurts the Skin: A Rare Case of Dermatitis Artefacta in an Epileptic Female
Treatment of Functional Neurological Disorders
Understanding Functional Neurological Disorders Functional neurological disorders (FND) represent a group of conditions where patients experience neurological symptoms, such as weakness, movement disorders, or non-epileptic seizures, that cannot be attributed to any identifiable neurological disease. These disorders primarily arise from the brain’s inability to process and communicate normal neurological functions effectively. It is essential to… Read more: Treatment of Functional Neurological Disorders
Exploring the Role of a Noninvasive Audio-Based Therapeutic System for Pain and Symptom Relief: Single-Arm Exploratory Pilot Study
Therapeutic System Overview The therapeutic system examined in this study is a noninvasive audio-based technology designed to alleviate pain and related symptoms through auditory stimulation. This innovative approach operates on the principle that sound can influence the brain’s neural networks and, consequently, contribute to pain modulation. It leverages specific sound patterns, frequencies, and rhythms that… Read more: Exploring the Role of a Noninvasive Audio-Based Therapeutic System for Pain and Symptom Relief: Single-Arm Exploratory Pilot Study
Stereotypes about tourette syndrome and associations with social media use: results from a large-scale german population survey
Overview of Stereotypes Stereotypes surrounding Tourette syndrome are often rooted in misinterpretations and societal misconceptions, primarily influenced by media representations and lack of public understanding about the condition. Tourette syndrome, characterized by involuntary movements and vocalizations known as tics, is frequently depicted in a sensationalized manner, leading to the prevalence of exaggerated beliefs. Common stereotypes… Read more: Stereotypes about tourette syndrome and associations with social media use: results from a large-scale german population survey

A Modular Prussian Blue Nanozyme-Based Microneedle Platform With Flexible Therapeutic Formulations for Localized Treatment of Traumatic Brain Injury
Secondary injury after traumatic brain injury (TBI) is characterized by excessive reactive oxygen species (ROS) production and persistent neuroinflammation, which remain difficult to control using a single therapeutic agent. Herein, a dissolvable microneedle platform based on Prussian blue (PB) nanoparticles was developed to locally deliver curcumin (Cur) or edaravone (EDA) into injured brain tissue through […]
Boldine treatment prevents chronic cognitive impairment and exaggerated fear learning in rats exposed to repetitive low-level blast injury
Many Veterans who experienced blast-related traumatic brain injuries (TBI) during their military service suffer from chronic cognitive and mental health problems including post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Male rats exposed to repetitive low-level blast injuries designed to mimic the type of blast-related mild TBI that was so common in the conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan develop […]
Consequences of repetitive head trauma: a historical reappraisal of Hobey Baker
CONCLUSION AND RELEVANCE: Baker remains immortalized as the archetype of the American amateur athlete-skilled, humble, and courageous. However, the same fearlessness that defined his athletic greatness exposed him to repeated head trauma in an era devoid of protective equipment or concussion awareness. Modern neuroscience suggests that repetitive head trauma can produce neurobehavioral changes, including impulsivity, […]
Male mice are particularly vulnerable to cognitive impairment following mild traumatic brain injury
Traumatic brain injuries (TBIs) result from impact to or rapid displacement of the brain and can lead to various neurological deficits involving working memory, decision making, and anxiety. While large-scale effects of brain damage are well-described for more severe TBIs, less is known about the extent and duration of cognitive deficits at the mild level. […]
Acute interleukin-10 predicts persistent post-concussion symptoms in children with mild traumatic brain injury: exploratory findings from the t-BIOMAP study
CONCLUSION: This exploratory study suggests that early IL10 measured at ED presentation may support two complementary risk-stratification strategies: a rule-out approach (100% negative predictive value [NPV]) to safely exclude children unlikely to develop P-PCS, and a rule-in approach (100% positive predictive value [PPV]) to identify those at high risk of requiring neuropsychological follow-up. Consistent with […]
