Improvement of Neuroenergetics by Hypertonic Lactate Therapy in Patients with Traumatic Brain Injury Is Dependent on Baseline Cerebral Lactate/Pyruvate Ratio

Pierre Magistretti, Reto Meuli, Luc Pellerin

Energy dysfunction is associated with worse prognosis after traumatic brain injury (TBI). Recent data suggest that hypertonic sodium lactate infusion (HL) improves energy metabolism after TBI. Here, we specifically examined whether the efficacy of HL (3h i ...

Collaborative European NeuroTrauma Effectiveness Research in Traumatic Brain Injury (CENTER-TBI)

Sean Lewis Hill

BACKGROUND: Current classification of traumatic brain injury (TBI) is suboptimal, and management is based on weak evidence, with little attempt to personalize treatment. A need exists for new precision medicine and stratified management approaches that inc ...

Computational Modeling of Resting State Activity demonstrates Markers of Normalcy in Children with Pre- or Perinatal Stroke

Alessandra Griffa, Patric Hagmann

Children who sustain a prenatal or perinatal brain injury in the form of a stroke develop remarkably normal cognitive functions in certain areas, with a particular strength in language skills. A dominant explanation for this is that brain regions from the ...

BCI and Motion Capture Technologies for Rehabilitation based on Videogames

Ricardo Andres Chavarriaga Lozano

We present a cost-effective rehabilitation system based on videogames and multimodal recordings of physiological signals. The system targets patients with sensory-motor impairments resulting from lesions of the central nervous system (e.g., due to stroke o ...

Cerebral extracellular lactate increase is predominantly nonischemic in patients with severe traumatic brain injury

Pierre Magistretti, Jocelyne Bloch, Reto Meuli

Growing evidence suggests that endogenous lactate is an important substrate for neurons. This study aimed to examine cerebral lactate metabolism and its relationship with brain perfusion in patients with severe traumatic brain injury (TBI). A prospective c ...

Monitoring of illicit pill distribution networks using an image collection exploration framework

Luc Patiny, Julien Wist

This paper proposes a novel approach for the analysis of illicit tablets based on their visual characteristics. In particular, the paper concentrates on the problem of ecstasy pill seizure profiling and monitoring. The presented method extracts the visual ...

Speech arrest with stimulation may not reliably predict language deficit after epilepsy surgery

Olaf Blanke

The authors present a patient in whom electrical cortical stimulation of the posterior temporal cortex induced speech arrest, comprehension deficits, and other language-related impairments. This area was ultimately resected because of persistence of a seve ...

Ictal bradycardia in a young child with focal cortical dysplasia in the right insular cortex

Olaf Blanke

We report on a three and a half year old child with episodic sinus bradycardia during habitual seizures and prolonged interictal discharges due to focal cortical dysplasia in the anterior 2/3 of the insula and the inferior frontal cortex. Seizure-induced b ...

Seizure suppression by adenosine-releasing cells is independent of seizure frequency

Patrick Aebischer, Vivianne Padrun

PURPOSE: Intraventricular cellular delivery of adenosine was recently shown to be transiently efficient in the suppression of seizure activity in the rat kindling model of epilepsy. We tested whether the suppression of seizures by adenosine-releasing graft ...

Aquaporins in brain: distribution, physiology, and pathophysiology

Pierre Magistretti

Water homeostasis in the brain is of central physiologic and clinical importance. Neuronal activity and ion water homeostasis are inextricably coupled. For example, the clearance of K+ from areas of high neuronal activity is associated with a concomitant w ...
