Recovery of supraspinal control of stepping via indirect propriospinal relay connections after spinal cord injury

Spinal cord injuries (SCIs) in humans and experimental animals are often associated with varying degrees of spontaneous functional recovery during the first months after injury. Such recovery is widely attributed to axons spared from injury that descend fr ...

Somatoparaphrenia: a body delusion. A review of the neuropsychological literature

Roberta Ronchi, Giuseppe Vallar

A review of published brain-damaged patients showing delusional beliefs concerning the contralesional side of the body (somatoparaphrenia) is presented. Somatoparaphrenia has been reported, with a few exceptions, in right-brain-damaged patients, with motor ...

Neurocomputational modeling of imitation deficits

Aude Billard, Biljana Petreska von Ritter-Zahony

We are interested in the question of human imitation and we address this through convergent evidence from neuroscience. The rationale of our work is that the nature of imitation deficits following brain lesion can unveil some of the neural and computationa ...

Perseveration in left spatial neglect: drawing and cancellation tasks

Roberta Ronchi, Giuseppe Vallar

Perseveration in target cancellation tasks and in drawing by copy and from memory was investigated in 21 right-brain-damaged patients, seven with no evidence of left visuo-spatial neglect, and 14 with neglect. Eight such neglect patients showed perseverati ...

Nippostrongylus brasiliensis infection leads to the development of emphysema associated with the induction of alternatively activated macrophages

Nicola Harris, Benjamin John Marsland

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is the 5(th) most prevalent disease worldwide leading to severe morbidity and mortality in developed countries. The disease is strongly associated with smoking, and can be characterized by progressive and irreve ...

Characterisation of tumour vasculature in mouse brain by USPIO contrast-enhanced MRI

Giulio Gambarota

To enhance the success rate of antiangiogenic therapies in the clinic, it is crucial to identify parameters for tumour angiogenesis that can predict response to these therapies. In brain tumours, one such parameter is vascular leakage, which is a response ...

Perinatal iron deficiency predisposes the developing rat hippocampus to greater injury from mild to moderate hypoxia-ischemia

Rolf Gruetter, Ramachandra Rao

The hippocampus is injured in both hypoxia-ischemia (HI) and perinatal iron deficiency that are co-morbidities in infants of diabetic mothers and intrauterine growth restricted infants. We hypothesized that preexisting perinatal iron deficiency predisposes ...

Postlesional plasticity in central auditory processing

Dragana Viceic

The most general and striking evidence related with brain injury is that of the restoration of function. Recovery of motor and somatosensory functions has shown to commonly occur after stroke, but not all individuals show improvement. Clinical studies have ...

Analysis of the stability of a posterior fusion system for the treatment of burst fractures

Dominique Pioletti, Arne Christian Vogel, Martin Aeberhard

In the framework of spine traumatology, burst fractures are severe and are often caused by car accidents or by falls. The vertebra breaks under the traumatic compression and pieces of it are shattered in all directions. This type of fracture is often treat ...

A coherent neurobiological framework for functional neuroimaging provided by a model integrating compartmentalized energy metabolism

Pierre Magistretti, Luc Pellerin

Functional neuroimaging has undergone spectacular developments in recent years. Paradoxically, its neurobiological bases have remained elusive, resulting in an intense debate around the cellular mechanisms taking place upon activation that could contribute ...
