Cholinergic deficit induced memory retrieval impairment and hippocampal CaMKII-alpha deregulation is counteracted by sub-chronic agmatine treatment in mice
This study suggests that hippocampal CaMKII-α might play a role in scopolamine induced amnesia and sub-chronic agmatine prevents the impairing effect of scopolamine on the retrieval phase of memory and the phosphorylation of hippocampal CaMKII-α protein.PMID:37733020 | DOI:10.1080/01616412.2023.2257417 (Source: Neurological Research)

5 -Alpha-dihydroxyprogesterone may contribute to perceptual processing and attention of the cases with relapsing remitting multiple sclerosis
Neurol Res. 2023 Sep 21:1-7. doi: 10.1080/01616412.2023.2258040. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTNeurosteroids (NSs) are endogenous steroid hormones, which are synthesised and metabolised within the central nervous system (CNS). NSs aid myelination and glial differentiation and modulate cognitive functions. Herein, we aim to investigate the relationship between NS levels, 5-alpha-dihydroxyprogesterone (5-α-DHP) and allopregnanolone (ALPG), and their relationship with cognitive changes in relapsing remitting MS patients.A total of 43 cases with well controlled, relapsing remitting MS composed the study group. The control gro...

Increased prevalence of mild myopathic changes in the post-COVID-19 duration
CONCLUSIONS: The high prevalence of complaints and objective myopathic findings in our cohort implicated the role of muscle involvement in the post-COVID-19 duration. Considering the socioeconomic and psychological burden of the post-COVID-19 duration among individuals and societies, a better understanding of the symptoms and myopathy is warranted.PMID:37729011 | DOI:10.1080/01616412.2023.2258034 (Source: Neurological Research)

Retrograde peripheral nerve regeneration from sensory to motor pathways in rats: a new experimental concept in nerve repair
CONCLUSIONS: Ulnar nerve axons regrew into the superficial radial nerve and then into the PIN to reinnervate the extensor digitorum communis. We were unable to demonstrate behavioral recovery because rats cannot readapt to cross-nerve transfer.PMID:37729085 | DOI:10.1080/01616412.2023.2258039 (Source: Neurological Research)

Clinical and surgical outcome of endoscopic third ventriculostomy (ETV) and ventriculoperitoneal shunt (VPS) in patients with Long-Standing Overt Ventriculomegaly in Adults (LOVA): a systematic review
DISCUSSION: This meta-analysis confirmed the efficacy of EVT and VPS in symptomatic patients with LOVA, reporting a roughly 84% of postoperative clinical improvement or halt of progression of symptoms. A higher rate of surgical complications was observed in patients treated with VPS compared with patients treated with ETV. In addition, roughly 18% of patients treated with ETV required a further VPS. These findings should be considered when advising LOVA patients regarding the management of hydrocephalus.PMID:37722694 | DOI:10.1080/01616412.2023.2257461 (Source: Neurological Research)

Balance and gait in individuals with diabetic peripheral neuropathy
CONCLUSIONS: The results of this study indicate that the individuals with DPN have an increased step width, their left single support line was shortened, and the maximum force on the heel decreased. The NP did not cause any change in balance and gait parameters.PMID:37712608 | DOI:10.1080/01616412.2023.2257445 (Source: Neurological Research)
