The feasibility and technical aspects of trigemino-cervical reflex elicitation in humans under general anesthesia
CONCLUSIONS: Short-latency components recorded in the SCM ipsilateral to the stimulation could be regularly elicited under general anesthesia when a larger stimulus duration (0.5-1.0 ms) was applied.SIGNIFICANCE: This is the first study to demonstrate the elicitation of TCR components in humans under general anesthesia. This neurophysiological technique can potentially optimize intraoperative neurophysiological monitoring during brainstem surgery.PMID:38503202 | DOI:10.1016/j.clinph.2024.02.031 (Source: Clinical Neurophysiology)

Resting-state EEG rhythms are abnormal in post COVID-19 patients with brain fog without cognitive and affective disorders
CONCLUSIONS: In post-COVID patients with no chronic diseases and cognitive/psychiatric disorders, "brain fog" can be associated with abnormal posterior rsEEG alpha rhythms and subjective fatigue.SIGNIFICANCE: These abnormalities may be related to vigilance and allostatic dysfunctions.PMID:38492271 | DOI:10.1016/j.clinph.2024.02.034 (Source: Clinical Neurophysiology)

Infant mismatch responses to speech-sound changes predict language development in preschoolers at risk for dyslexia
CONCLUSIONS: Infant MMRs, providing information about the maturity of the auditory system, are associated with the development of pre-reading skills. Speech-processing deficits may contribute to deficits in language acquisition observed in dyslexia.SIGNIFICANCE: Infant MMRs could work as predictive markers of atypical linguistic development during early childhood. Results may help in planning preventive and rehabilitation interventions in children at risk of learning impairments.PMID:38492973 | DOI:10.1016/j.clinph.2024.02.032 (Source: Clinical Neurophysiology)
