Kynurenines in neurological disorders
… kynurenine pathway is thought to be involved in neurological disorders but its precise role and the mechanisms involved have yet to be established. Tryptophan can be metabolised via this pathway to produce the neurotoxic N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor agonist, quinolinic acid (QUIN), and …

Motor imagery in neurological rehabilitation
… have been shown to benefit individuals with neurological disorders. More intensive treatments, whilst being expensive on resources, have been observed to attain greater impact. Motor imagery is a promising intervention for use in rehabilitation as it can be used to safely increase treatment …

Machine Learning Applications For Neurological Diseases
Neurological conditions affect the brain and other parts of the nervous system. This includes neurodegenerative diseases like Huntington’s Disease, psychiatric conditions like schizophrenia, and brain cancers like glioblastoma. These conditions are particularly challenging to study because they …

Electroencephalography for neurological prognostication after cardiac arrest
… with a potential for recovery. Next to the neurological examination, EEG is the most commonly used tool to assess prognosis. However, the value of EEG has been limited by varying classification systems, interrater variability and influence of sedation. Methods: In the “coma project” …

METHODS OF IDENTIFYING NEUROLOGICAL DELIRIUM (MIND) STUDY
Delirium is a major concern for critically ill older patients because it is associated with significant risk to quality of life and mortality. The United States spends approximately $164 billion in Medicare funding annually to combat the consequences of delirium. This figure is only expected to …

Physiological studies investigating neurological adaptations to resistance training
The effect of different strength training paradigms on corticospinal excitability and inhibition was studied throughout this thesis. The primary aim was to investigate the corticospinal responses following isometric, isotonic, cross-education and wholebody vibration (WBV) strength training, and to …

The role of AUTS2 in neurodevelopment and neurological disease
… AUTS2 has been implicated in a wide variety of neurological and neurodevelopmental disorders, including autism, epilepsy, cognitive impairment, and Attention Deficit Hyperactive Disorder (ADHD). Additionally, single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the AUTS2 locus are associated with …

Laser-activated perfluorocarbon nanodroplets as a tool in neurological applications
… One major roadblock to successful treatment of neurological diseases is the blood brain barrier (BBB), a semipermeable barrier that often prevents extravasation of therapeutics or imaging contrast from the vasculature into brain tissue. To address this challenge, laser-activated PFCnDs can be …

Predicting neurological impairment with the Dean-Woodcock Sensory Motor Battery
… of neuropsychological batteries to assess neurological impairment, however examination of only the sensory-motor portion of those measures has been limited. Investigations of tests of sensory and motor functions have often limited their analysis to single tests. The present study assessed …

Silica nanoparticles as vehicles for therapy delivery in neurological injury
<p>Acrolein, a very reactive aldehyde, is a culprit in the biochemical cascade after primary, mechanical spinal cord injury (SCI), which leads to the destruction of tissue initially unharmed, referred to as "secondary injury". Additionally, in models of multiple sclerosis (MS) and some clinical …

Modeling Complex Neurological Disorders With Human Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells
The etiology of many complex neurological disorders, including schizophrenia (SZ) and HIV-Associated Neurocognitive Disorders (HAND), are still unknown, partly due to a lack of accurate models. Human-induced pluripotent stem cells (HiPSCs), which can be differentiated into any cell type and capture …

Robotic Assessment to Detect Neurological Impairments Associated with Transient Ischemic Attack
… of increased risk of stroke, TIA can lead to neurological consequences that far outlast the previously prescribed symptom resolution window of 24 hours. The understanding of these deficits has been accelerated by the application of various technological approaches. Robotic assessment systems …
