Predicting value for incomplete recovery in Bell's palsy of facial nerve ultrasound versus nerve conduction study
CONCLUSIONS: Although HRUS shows abnormally increased facial nerve diameter in patients in the acute phase of Bell's palsy, the predictive value of this technique for incomplete clinical recovery at three and six months is lower than that of the nerve conduction study.SIGNIFICANCE: Nerve ultrasound has a low predictive value for incomplete clinical recovery in patients with Bell's Palsy.PMID:38150916 | DOI:10.1016/j.clinph.2023.11.020 (Source: Clinical Neurophysiology)

A neurophysiological approach to mirror movements in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis
CONCLUSIONS: Mirror activity is a common phenomenon in ALS. Mirror activity intensity corresponds to the severity of UMN dysfunction, as measured by TMS, and probably derives from the abnormal transcallosal inhibition as mirrored by iSP abnormality.SIGNIFICANCE: Mirror activity is increased in ALS and is associated with abnormal transcallosal inhibition and UMN dysfunction.PMID:38142663 | DOI:10.1016/j.clinph.2023.12.002 (Source: Clinical Neurophysiology)

Unraveling tactile categorization and decision-making in the subregions of supramarginal gyrus via direct cortical stimulation
CONCLUSIONS: DCS can enhance cognitive processes and map brain regions responsible for tactile categorization and decision-making within the supramarginal gyrus. This study also demonstrates that DCS and the gamma activity of ECoG can concordantly identify the detailed brain mapping in a tactile process compared to other functional neuroimaging.SIGNIFICANCE: The combination of DCS and ECoG gamma activity provides a more nuanced and detailed understanding of brain function than traditional neuroimaging techniques alone.PMID:38134532 | DOI:10.1016/j.clinph.2023.12.004 (Source: Clinical Neurophysiology)

Roles of the cerebellum and basal ganglia in temporal integration: Insights from a synchronized tapping task
CONCLUSIONS: Cerebellar patients generally showed greater STE variability, except for SCA31. The pace of tapping was affected in patients with possible basal ganglia pathology.SIGNIFICANCE: Our results suggest that interaction between the cerebellum and the basal ganglia is essential for temporal processing. The cerebellum and basal ganglia and their interaction regulate synchronized tapping, resulting in distinct tapping pattern abnormalities among different SCD subtypes.PMID:38113692 | DOI:10.1016/j.clinph.2023.11.018 (Source: Clinical Neurophysiology)
