Enhancing motor learning in people with stroke via memory reactivation during sleep.
Conclusions: This study suggests that TMR may enhance motor learning after stroke. Future studies should investigate whether TMR can lead to improvements of the paretic upper extremity during clinically based rehabilitation interventions. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2021 APA, all rights reserved)

Different stroke(s)
A 13-year-old boy with mild learning difficulties presented to his district general hospital after an unwitnessed episode of collapse with vomiting but no loss of consciousness. He had 3 days of lethargy and intermittent occipital headaches waking him from sleep. Two days later, after another ‘funny turn’, he represented with right-side paraesthesia, weakness and word-finding difficulty. He had three previous ‘collapses’ over the last 6 months, including symptoms of transient dizziness, slurred speech, dribbling, difficulty swallowing and left-facial paraesthesia from which he had recovere...

The Impact of Online Learning System on Students Affected with Stroke Disease
Behav Neurol. 2022 Feb 7;2022:4847066. doi: 10.1155/2022/4847066. eCollection 2022.ABSTRACTStroke, also known as a cerebrovascular accident, is a medical emergency that causes temporary or permanent behavioral dysfunction in people. Sleep deprivation affects our brains in a variety of ways. The advantages of sleep much justify the risks of not having enough sleep. Sleep deprivation (SD) includes a variety of factors, including prolonged awake. Neuroimaging investigates SD's impact on attention, working memory, mood, and hippocampal learning. We analyzed how this data enriches our mechanistic understanding of these alterati...

How John Fetterman Came Out of the Darkness
When he looks back on the past year—a year in which he nearly died, became a U.S. Senator, and nearly died again—it is the debate that John Fetterman identifies as the ­breaking point. “The debate lit the mitch,” he says, then shakes his head in frustration and tries again. The right word is there in his brain, but he struggles to get it out. “Excuse me, that should be lit the mitch—” He stops and tries again. “Lit the match,” he says finally. Oct. 25, 2022: the date is lodged in his mind. “I knew I had to do it,” he tells me. “I knew that the vote...

Saving and Improving Lives Mile By Mile, Coast to Coast
Since mid-March, they've been riding bicycles through communities from coast to coast. Perhaps you've heard about their efforts or even saw them roll through your area. Their aim is noble. Their journey proved to be more difficult than envisioned. They endured a tragedy halfway through. And a near tragedy at the start. And all that is on top of the devastating episode that birthed this whole thing. The ride is called Heart Across America. It's the brainchild of Sean Maloney, a former Intel executive who overcame a debilitating stroke to resume his life and career. Since beating those odds, Maloney set his sights ev...

A Case of Transient Global Amnesia: A Review and How It May Shed Further Insight into the Neurobiology of Delusions
Conclusion In closing, our patient’s episode of TGA combined with her emotional and perceptual response lends credence to the proposal of a “fear/paranoia” circuit in the genesis of paranoid delusions—a circuit incorporating amygdala, frontal, and parietal cortices. Here, neutral or irrelevant stimuli, thoughts, and percepts come to engender fear and anxiety, while dysfunction in frontoparietal circuitry engenders inappropriate social predictions and maladaptive inferences about the intentions of others.[54] Hippocampus relays information about contextual information based on past experiences and the current situat...

Phagocytosis in the Brain: Homeostasis and Disease
Conclusions and Perspectives In this review we have summarized the critical role phagocytosis plays in both CNS homeostasis and disease. While much progress has been made in recent years, many unanswered questions remain. How phagocytosis in the CNS is influenced by numerous factors, such as microenvironment or phagocytic target, have yet to be fully resolved. Additionally, the utilization of novel technologies, including in vivo imaging techniques (217), iPSC-derived microglia (213) and high-throughput screens (66), will likely contribute to further identification of phagocytic pathways and consequences of phagocytosis w...

Modifiable Lifestyle Factors and Cognitive Function in Older People: A Cross-Sectional Observational Study
Conclusions: Lifestyle factors, such as physical activity, sleep, and social activity appear to be associated with cognitive function among older people. Physical activity and appropriate durations of sleep and conversation are important for cognitive function. Introduction Dementia is a major public health issue worldwide, with a serious burden for patients, caregivers, and society, as well as substantial economic impacts (1). Although the prevalence of late-life cognitive impairment and dementia are expected to increase in future, effective disease-modifying treatments are currently unavailable. Therefore, unders...
