Novel Approach to the Role of NMDA Receptors in Traumatic Brain Injury.
Abstract For more than two decades the intensive research effort on the role of NMDA receptors (NMDAR) in traumatic brain injury (TBI) and cerebral ischemia (stroke) was led by the observations that extracellular concentrations of glutamate and aspartate are elevated after the insult and play a major role in brain pathologies. Indeed, NMDAR antagonists were shown to improve post-injury recovery in animal models and subsequently, large scale placebo-controlled clinical trials in TBI and stroke were performed with NMDAR antagonists. However, all these trials have demonstrated either no benefit or even deleterious ef...

Translational challenge models in support of efficacy studies: Neurobehavioral and cognitive changes induced by Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation in healthy volunteers.
Abstract Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) was proposed as a neurophysiological tool almost three decades ago. It now encompasses a very wide range of applications including clinical research and the treatment of psychiatric, neurologic and medical conditions such as depression, schizophrenia, addictions, post-traumatic stress disorders, pain, migraine, stroke, Alzheimer's disease, autism, multiple sclerosis and Parkinson's disease. By inducing electrical brain responses through the administration of magnetic pulses, TMS is in a unique position to painlessly modulate cortical regions and offers good spatial ...

Neurological associations of SARS-CoV-2 infection: A Systematic Review.
Abstract BACKGROUND: The current ongoing COVID-19 pandemic has compelled us to scrutinize major outbreaks in the past two decades, severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS), in 2002, and Middle East respiratory syndrome (MERS), in 2012. We aimed to assess the associated neurological manifestations with SARS CoV-2 infection. METHODS: In this systematic review, a search was carried out by key-electronic databases, controlled vocabulary, and indexing of trials to evaluate the available pertinent studies which included both medical subject headings (MeSH) and advance electronic databases comprising of PubMed, Emba...
