Predicting Motor and Cognitive Outcomes from MRIs of Brain Structure in Children with Acquired Brain Injury: A Pilot Study
Acquired Brain Injury (ABI) describes a range of brain injuries occurring after birth, including tumor, traumatic brain injury or stroke. Although MRIs are routinely used for diagnosis, prediction of outcome following brain injury is challenging. Quantitative structural information from brain images may provide an opportunity to predict patient outcomes; however, due to the high prevalence of severe pathology in children with ABI, quantitative approaches must be robust to injury severity.

From kitchen to clinic: Pharmacotherapeutic potential of common spices in Indian cooking in age-related neurological disorders
Aging is described as an advanced time-related collection of changes that may negatively affect with the risk of several diseases or death. Aging is a main factor of several age-related neurological disorders, including neurodegenerative diseases (Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease, and dementia), stroke, neuroinflammation, neurotoxicity, brain tumors, oxidative stress, and reactive oxygen species (ROS). Currently available medications for age-related neurological disorders may lead to several side effects, such as headache, diarrhea, nausea, gastrointestinal (GI) diseases, dyskinesia, and hallucinosis. These day...

Transgenic animal models to explore and modulate the blood brain and blood retinal barriers of the CNS
AbstractThe unique environment of the brain and retina is tightly regulated by blood –brain barrier and the blood-retinal barrier, respectively, to ensure proper neuronal function. Endothelial cells within these tissues possess distinct properties that allow for controlled passage of solutes and fluids. Pericytes, glia cells and neurons signal to endothelial cells (ECs) to form an d maintain the barriers and control blood flow, helping to create the neurovascular unit. This barrier is lost in a wide range of diseases affecting the central nervous system (CNS) and retina such as brain tumors, stroke, dementia, and in the ...

Ischemic stroke in a patient with EGFR ‐mutated non–small‐cell lung cancer after treatment with ramucirumab
This article presents the case of a non–small-cell lun g cancer patient who experienced a new ischemic stroke after treatment with ramucirumab. The findings suggest that further studies may be necessary to investigate the relationship between ramucirumab and the risk of ischemic stroke.

Evaluation of a Novel Synthetic Peptide Derived from Cytolytic Mycotoxin Candidalysin
Toxins (Basel). 2022 Oct 11;14(10):696. doi: 10.3390/toxins14100696.ABSTRACTThe importance of neuroinflammation in neurology is becoming increasingly apparent. In addition to neuroinflammatory diseases such as multiple sclerosis, the role of neuroinflammation has been identified in many non-inflammatory neurological disorders such as stroke, epilepsy, and cancer. The immune response within the brain involves the presence of CNS resident cells; mainly glial cells, such as microglia, the CNS resident macrophages. We evaluated the peptide Ca-MAP1 bioinspired on the C. albicans immature cytolytic toxin candidalysin to develop ...

Stroke-like presentation of autoimmune chorea with positive anti-Yo and anti-MOG antibodies: a case report
AbstractWith the in-depth study of autoimmune encephalitis, more and more antibody combinations and clinical manifestations appear in our sights, enriching the spectrum of autoimmune encephalitis. Here, we report a case of a 58-year-old male patient with sudden involuntary movement of the left limb. The brain MRI was normal. CSF analysis showed slightly elevated protein (548.38 mg/L) and normal cell count(1.00 10^6/L). No tumors were detected by the whole-body PET-CT. Positive anti-Yo and anti-MOG antibodies were found in the blood. So we considered the diagnosis of autoimmune chorea with positive anti-Yo and anti-MOG a...

Neuroprotective effect of alpha-kinase 1 knockdown against cerebral ischemia through inhibition of the NF- κB pathway and neuroinflammation
CONCLUSIONS: This study demonstrates that ALPK1 is implicated in sterile inflammatory injury after acute brain ischemia, which provides first evidence for the therapeutic potential of ALPK1 inhibition in ischemic stroke.PMID:36274483 | DOI:10.1016/j.intimp.2022.109330

Molecules, Vol. 27, Pages 7174: Repurposing SGLT2 Inhibitors for Neurological Disorders: A Focus on the Autism Spectrum Disorder
l Akour
Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a neurodevelopmental disorder with a substantially increasing incidence rate. It is characterized by repetitive behavior, learning difficulties, deficits in social communication, and interactions. Numerous medications, dietary supplements, and behavioral treatments have been recommended for the management of this condition, however, there is no cure yet. Recent studies have examined the therapeutic potential of the sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors in neurodevelopmental diseases, based on their proved anti-inflammatory effects, such as downregulating the express...

Can mental practice adjunct in the recovery of motor function in the upper limbs after stroke? A systematic review and meta-analysis
CONCLUSION: Current evidence does not support the use of the mental practice to increase the recovery of the upper limb after stroke, although the evidence is conflicting for some aspects of the technique.PMID:36267434 | PMC:PMC9578308 | DOI:10.4103/bc.bc_28_22

Therapeutic efficacy of matrix metalloproteinase-12 suppression on neurological recovery after ischemic stroke: Optimal treatment timing and duration
The objectives of this study were to (1) determine the effect of MMP-12 suppression by shRNA-mediated gene silencing on neurological/functional recovery, (2) establish the optimal timing of MMP-12shRNA treatment that provides maximum therapeutic benefit, (3) compare the effectiveness of acute versus chronic MMP-12 suppression, and (4) evaluate potential sex-related differences in treatment outcomes. Young male and female Sprague-Dawley rats were subjected to transient middle cerebral artery occlusion and reperfusion. Cohorts of rats were administered either MMP-12shRNA or scrambled shRNA sequence (control) expressing plasm...

Exploratory study to assess feasibility of intracerebral hemorrhage detection by point of care cranial ultrasound
ConclusionsOur exploratory analysis yielded preliminary data on use of point of care cranial ultrasound for ICH diagnosis to inform imaging techniques, cranial topography on B mode and sample size estimation for future studies to evaluate sensitivity and specificity of cranial POCUS in adult patients. This pilot study is limited by small sample size and over representation of ICH in the study. Cranial POCUS is feasible using POCUS machines and may have potential as a screening tool if validated in adequately powered studies.

Role of Serum Homocysteine and Outcome in Patients With Traumatic Brain Injury
Conclusion The study concluded that patients who had suffered from a TBI had significantly higher serum Hcy levels. Furthermore, the study highlighted that the patients with the worst outcomes had more severe hyperhomocysteinemia (HHcy) than those with better outcomes. Moreover, patients with low GOS scores were more likely to have HHcy.PMID:36237797 | PMC:PMC9548089 | DOI:10.7759/cureus.28968

Long non-coding RNA RPL34-AS1 ameliorates oxygen –glucose deprivation-induced neuronal injury via modulating miR-223–3p/IGF1R axis
In this study, RPL34-AS1 expression was reduced in patients suffering from ischemic s troke. The overexpression of RPL34-AS1 reduced ischemic brain damage. However, the cell viability and glucose uptake were increased, and the apoptosis rate was decreased in the OGD/R-induced neurons. Further, miR-223-3p resulted in the decreased cell viability and glucose uptake and the increased ce ll apoptosis to cause ischemic brain damage. Besides, the neuroprotective effects of RPL34-AS1 on OGD/R injury were partly reversed by miR-223–3p. Mechanistically, lncRNA RPL34-AS1 could function as the competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) of mi...
