A Low Power Multi-Class Migraine Detection Processor Based on Somatosensory Evoked Potentials

Mahsa Shoaran, Bingzhao Zhu, Zain Taufique

Migraine is a disabling neurological disorder that can be recurrent and persist for long durations. The continuous monitoring of the brain activities can enable the patient to respond on time before the occurrence of the approaching migraine episode to min ...

The role of the inferior parietal lobule in writer's cramp

Traian Popa

Humans have a distinguishing ability for fine motor control that is subserved by a highly evolved cortico-motor neuronal network. The acquisition of a particular motor skill involves a long series of practice movements, trial and error, adjustment and refi ...

Stereotactic radiosurgery for trigeminal neuralgia: a systematic review

Constantin Tuleasca

OBJECTIVES The aims of this systematic review are to provide an objective summary of the published literature specific to the treatment of classical trigeminal neuralgia with stereotactic radiosurgery (RS) and to develop consensus guideline recommendations ...

Lactate and Glutamate dynamics during prolonged stimulation of the rat barrel cortex suggest adaptation of cerebral glucose and oxygen metabolism

João Miguel das Neves Duarte, Nathalie Just, Sarah Catherine Sonnay

A better understanding of BOLD responses stems from a better characterization of the brain’s ability to metabolize glucose and oxygen. Non-invasive techniques such as functional magnetic resonance spectroscopy (fMRS) have thus been developed allowing for t ...

Neuronal Matrix Metalloproteinase-9 Is a Determinant of Selective Neurodegeneration

Patrick Aebischer, Christopher Towne

Selective neuronal loss is the hallmark of neurodegenerative diseases. In patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), most motor neurons die but those innervating extraocular, pelvic sphincter, and slow limb muscles exhibit selective resistance. We ...

Structural abnormalities in the thalamus of migraineurs with aura: a multiparametric study at 3T

David Paul Roger Romascano, Alessandro Daducci, Cristina Granziera, Nouchine Hadjikhani, Gunnar Krüger, Alexis Roche

Background and objectives: The thalamus exerts a pivotal role in pain processing and cortical excitability control, and migraine is characterized by repeated pain attacks and abnormal cortical habituation to excitatory stimuli. This work aimed at studying ...

The missing link: Enhanced functional connectivity between amygdala and visceroceptive cortex in migraine

Nouchine Hadjikhani

Background Migraine is a neurovascular disorder in which altered functional connectivity between pain-modulating circuits and the limbic system may play a role. Cortical spreading depression (CSD), which underlies migraine aura (MWA), induces C-fos express ...

Altered functional magnetic resonance imaging resting-state connectivity in periaqueductal gray networks in migraine

Nouchine Hadjikhani

Objective: The periaqueductal gray matter (PAG), a known modulator of somatic pain transmission, shows evidence of interictal functional and structural abnormalities in migraineurs, which may contribute to hyperexcitability along spinal and trigeminal noci ...

Identification and Functional Response of "Interstitial Cells of Cajal"-like Cells from Rat Mesenteric Artery

Aurélie Formey de Saint Louvent

This thesis is a contribution to the field of interstitial cells of Cajal-like cells (ICC-LCs) in the vasculature. Indeed, cells with irregular shapes and numerous long thin filaments, morphologically similar to the gastrointestinal ICCs, have been observe ...

Migraine Aura: Retracting Particle-Like Waves in Weakly Susceptible Cortex

Nouchine Hadjikhani

Cortical spreading depression (SD) has been suggested to underlie migraine aura. Despite a precise match in speed, the spatio-temporal patterns of SD observed in animal cortex and aura symptoms mapped to the cortical surface ordinarily differ in aspects of ...
