Breastfeeding for Primary Prevention of Stroke.
Authors: Boutrid N, Rahmoune H, Boutrid H Abstract A recent review by Zhang et al. published in the "Journal of the National Medical Association" focused on the major and emerging strategies for the prevention of stroke. We would highlight the evolving role of breastfeeding as an efficient intervention in primary prevention of such cardiovascular disease, including in black women.

A novel computational model to probe visual search deficits during motor performance
Successful execution of many motor skills relies on well-organized visual search (voluntary eye movements that actively scan the environment for task-relevant information). Although impairments of visual search that result from brain injuries are linked to diminished motor performance, the neural processes that guide visual search within this context remain largely unknown. The first objective of this study was to examine how visual search in healthy adults and stroke survivors is used to guide hand movements during the Trail Making Test (TMT), a neuropsychological task that is a strong predictor of visuomotor and cognitiv...

The right hemisphere is dominant in organization of visual search - a study in stroke patients.
Abstract Cancellation tasks are widely used for diagnosing attentional deficits in stroke patients. A disorganized fashion of target cancellation has been hypothesized to reflect disturbed spatial exploration. In the current study we aimed to examine which lesion locations result in disorganized visual search during cancellation tasks, in order to determine which brain areas are involved in search organisation. A computerized shape cancellation task was administered in 78 stroke patients. As an index for search organization, the amount of intersections of paths between consecutive crossed targets was computed (i.e...

Characterizing internet search patterns for neurologic and neurosurgical conditions following celebrity diagnosis
CONCLUSIONS: Following major events related to the neurological disease of public figures there is an expected rise in Google search interest relevant to these topics. Our findings suggest that there is an optimal window of approximately 2 weeks following each of these events for activist and clinical groups to publicize their desired message, and for the field of neurosurgery and neurological science to increase public awareness regarding specific diseases, with a regression to baseline interest by 4-months following the event.PMID:34763394 | DOI:10.23736/S0390-5616.21.05569-7

The effect of spectral filters on visual search in stroke patients.
Abstract Visual search impairment can occur following stroke. The utility of optimal spectral filters on visual search in stroke patients has not been considered to date. The present study measured the effect of optimal spectral filters on visual search response time and accuracy, using a task requiring serial processing. A stroke and control cohort undertook the task three times: (i) using an optimally selected spectral filter; (ii) the subjects were randomly assigned to two groups with group 1 using an optimal filter for two weeks, whereas group 2 used a grey filter for two weeks; (iii) the groups were crossed o...

A pilot randomized controlled trial comparing effectiveness of prism glasses, visual search training and standard care in hemianopia
ConclusionsNo significant change occurred for area of visual field area across arms over follow‐up. Visual search training had significant improvement in vision‐related quality of life. Prism therapy produced adverse events in 69%. Visual search training results warrant further investigation.
