Progranulin promotes hippocampal neurogenesis and alleviates anxiety-like behavior and cognitive impairment in adult mice subjected to cerebral ischemia
CONCLUSIONS: Progranulin alleviates ischemia-induced anxiety-like behavior and spatial learning and memory impairment in mice, probably via stimulation of hippocampal neurogenesis mediated by activation of MAPK/ERK and PI3K/Akt pathways. PGRN might be a promising candidate for coping with ischemic stroke-induced mood and cognitive impairment in clinic.PMID:35146924 | DOI:10.1111/cns.13810

Graph Convolutional Networks for Assessment of Physical Rehabilitation Exercises
Health professionals often prescribe patients to perform specific exercises for rehabilitation of several diseases (e.g., stroke, Parkinson, backpain). When patients perform those exercises in the absence of an expert (e.g., physicians/therapists), they cannot assess the correctness of the performance. Automatic assessment of physical rehabilitation exercises aims to assign a quality score given an RGBD video of the body movement as input. Recent deep learning approaches address this problem by extracting CNN features from co-ordinate grids of skeleton data (body-joints) obtained from videos. However, they could not extrac...

A Neuropsychological Rehabilitation Framework to Address Cognitive and Neurobehavioral Impairments After Strokes to the Anterior Communicating Artery
Patients with strokes to the Anterior Communicating Artery (ACoA) pose an important challenge to rehabilitation teams due to a particular mix of cognitive and behavioral impairments (anosognosia, anterograde amnesia, prospective memory problems, and executive dysfunction). These deficits often compromise engagement with rehabilitation, learning and generalization. The goal of this article is to describe the long-term presentation of a patient with an ACoA stroke (Mrs. B, a 60-year-old electric engineer) as well as her rehabilitation needs and the many challenges experienced by the rehabilitation team when attempting to fac...

AI Empowered Virtual Reality Integrated Systems for Sleep Stage Classification and Quality Enhancement
Insomnia is a common public health problem and an open biomedical research topic. Insomnia results in various health problems, including memory decline, decreases concentration and weakens problem-solving ability. The insufficient sleep also leads to skin ageing, heart disease, high blood pressure, arrhythmia and stroke. While it remains as a global health concern, sleep quality improvement using modern technologies, such as machine learning, classification technologies, virtual reality (VR), becomes an open and hot research problem. These modern technologies offer new curing solutions under certain conditions. In this pap...

Neural Mechanism Underlying Task-Specific Enhancement of Motor Learning by Concurrent Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation
AbstractThe optimal protocol for neuromodulation by transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) remains unclear. Using the rotarod paradigm, we found that mouse motor learning was enhanced by anodal tDCS (3.2 mA/cm2) during but not before or after the performance of a task. Dual-task experiments showed that motor learning enhancement was specific to the task accompanied by anodal tDCS. Studies using a mouse model of stroke induced by middle cerebral artery occlusion showed that concurrent anodal tDCS restored motor learning capability in a task-specific manner. Transcranialin vivo Ca2+ imaging further showed that anodal...

A brief review of motor imagery and bimanual coordination
Motor imagery is increasingly being used in clinical settings, such as in neurorehabilitation and brain computer interface (BCI). In stroke, patients lose upper limb function and must re-learn bimanual coordination skills necessary for the activities of daily living. Physiotherapists integrate motor imagery with physical rehabilitation to accelerate recovery. In BCIs, users are often asked to imagine a movement, often with sparse instructions. The EEG pattern that coincides with this cognitive task is captured, then used to execute an external command, such as operating a neuroprosthetic device. As such, BCIs are dependent...

Rapid Response EEG: Current State and Future Directions
AbstractPurpose of ReviewTo critically appraise the literature on the application, methods, and advances in emergency electroencephalography (EEG).Recent FindingsThe development of rapid EEG (rEEG) technologies and other reduced montage approaches, along with advances in machine learning over the past decade, has increased the rate and access to EEG acquisition. These achievements have made EEG in the emergency setting a practical diagnostic technique for detecting seizures, suspected nonconvulsive status epilepticus (NCSE), altered mental status, stroke, and in the setting of sedation.SummaryGrowing evidence supports usin...

Resting-State Functional Networks Correlate with Motor Performance in a Complex Visuomotor Task: An EEG Microstate Pilot Study on Healthy Individuals
Brain Topogr. 2022 Dec 25. doi: 10.1007/s10548-022-00934-9. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTDeveloping motor and cognitive skills is needed to achieve expert (motor) performance or functional recovery from a neurological condition, e.g., after stroke. While extensive practice plays an essential role in the acquisition of good motor performance, it is still unknown whether certain person-specific traits may predetermine the rate of motor learning. In particular, learners' functional brain organisation might play an important role in appropriately performing motor tasks. In this paper, we aimed to study how two critical cognit...

A Machine Learning-Based Initial Difficulty Level Adjustment Method for Balance Exercise on a Trunk Rehabilitation Robot
Trunk rehabilitation exercises such as those for remediating core stability can help improve the seated balance of patients with weakness or loss of proprioception caused by diseases such as stroke, and aid the recovery of other functions such as gait. However, there has not yet been any reported method for automatically determining the parameters that define exercise difficulty on a trunk rehabilitation robot (TRR) based on data such as the patient’s demographic information, balancing ability, and training sequence, etc. We have proposed a machine learning (ML)-based difficulty adjustment method to determine an app...

Edaravone Dexborneol Alleviates Neuroinflammation by Reducing Neuroglial Cell Proliferation and Suppresses Neuronal Apoptosis/Autophagy in Vascular Dementia Rats
In this study, we established the VD model of rats by bilateral carotid artery occlusion to explore the neuroprotective effect of EDB and its mechanism. Morris Water Maze test was applied to assess the cognitive function of rats. H&E and TUNEL staining were applied to observe the cellular structure of the hippocampus. Immunofluorescence labeling was used to observe the proliferation of astrocytes and microglia. ELISA was applied to examine the levels of TNF-α, IL-1β and IL-6, and RT-PCR was applied to examine their mRNA expression levels. Western blotting was applied to examine apoptosis-related proteins (Bax, Bcl-2,...

A Novel Algorithmic Structure of EEG Channel Attention Combined With Swin Transformer for Motor Patterns Classification
With the development of brain-computer interfaces (BCI) technologies, EEG-based BCI applications have been deployed for medical purposes. Motor imagery (MI), applied to promote neural rehabilitation for stroke patients, is among the most common BCI paradigms that. The Electroencephalogram (EEG) signals, encompassing an extensive range of channels, render the training dataset a high-dimensional construct. This high dimensionality, inherent in such a dataset, tends to challenge traditional deep learning approaches, causing them to potentially disregard the intrinsic correlations amongst these channels. Such an oversight ofte...

A Novel Neurorehabilitation Prognosis Prediction Modeling on Separated Left-Right Hemiplegia Based on Brain-Computer Interfaces Assisted Rehabilitation
It is essential for neuroscience and clinic to estimate the influence of neuro-intervention after brain damage. Most related studies have used Mirrored Contralesional-Ipsilesional hemispheres (MCI) methods flipping the axial neuroimaging on the x-axis in prognosis prediction. But left-right hemispheric asymmetry in the brain has become a consensus. MCI confounds the intrinsic brain asymmetry with the asymmetry caused by unilateral damage, leading to questions about the reliability of the results and difficulties in physiological explanations. We proposed the Separated Left-Right hemiplegia (SLR) method to model left and ri...
