The Cerebellum and Cognitive Function: Anatomical Evidence from a Transdiagnostic Sample

Multiple lines of evidence across human functional, lesion, and animal data point to a cerebellar role, in particular of crus I, crus II, and lobule VIIB, in cognitive function. However, a mapping of distinct facets of cognitive function to cerebellar stru ...

Automated Analysis of Cerebrospinal Fluid Flow and Motile Cilia Properties in The Central Canal of Zebrafish Embryos

François Gallaire, Ludovic Pierre Gustave Keiser

Circulation of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) plays an important role during development. In zebrafish embryo, the flow of CSF has been found to be bidirectional in the central canal of the spinal cord. In order to compare conditions and genetic mutants across ...

CVSnet: A machine learning approach for automated central vein sign assessment in multiple sclerosis

Meritxell Bach Cuadra, Tobias Kober, Reto Meuli, João Pedro Forjaco Jorge, Cristina Granziera, Francesco La Rosa, Jonas Richiardi, Mario Joao Fartaria de Oliveira

The central vein sign (CVS) is an efficient imaging biomarker for multiple sclerosis (MS) diagnosis, but its application in clinical routine is limited by inter-rater variability and the expenditure of time associated with manual assessment. We describe a ...

Transsphenoidal resection for pituitary adenoma in elderly versus younger patients: a systematic review and meta-analysis

Constantin Tuleasca

Introduction Pituitary adenomas (PA) are common intracranial tumors. In the context of the aging of the population, the question is whether postsurgical outcomes are comparable to the younger ones. The primary objective of the present study was to review p ...

How Flow Reduction Influences the Intracranial Aneurysm Occlusion: A Prospective 4D Phase-Contrast MRI Study

Mohamed Farhat, Philippe Reymond, Pierre Bouillot

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Flow-diverter stents are widely used for the treatment of wide-neck intracranial aneurysms. Various parameters may influence intracranial aneurysm thrombosis, including the flow reduction induced by flow-diverter stent implantation, ...

Longitudinal study of neonatal brain tissue volumes in preterm infants and their ability to predict neurodevelopmental outcome

Djalel Eddine Meskaldji, Laura Ioana Gui, Serafeim Loukas

Premature birth has been associated with poor neurodevelopmental outcomes. However, the relation between such outcomes and brain growth in the neonatal period has not yet been fully elucidated. This study investigates longitudinal brain development between ...

3D phase contrast MRI: Partial volume correction for robust blood flow quantification in small intracranial vessels

Mohamed Farhat, Pierre Bouillot

Purpose: Recent advances in 3D-PCMRI (phase contrast MRI) sequences allow for measuring the complex hemodynamics in cerebral arteries. However, the small size of these vessels vs spatial resolution can lead to non-negligible partial volume artifacts, which ...

Redox dysregulation as a link between childhood trauma and psychopathological and neurocognitive profile in patients with early psychosis

Alessandra Griffa, Patric Hagmann, Kim Do

Exposure to childhood trauma (CT) increases the risk for psychosis and affects the development of brain structures, possibly through oxidative stress. As oxidative stress is also linked to psychosis, it may interact with CT, leading to a more severe clinic ...

Inverse solutions for brain-computer interfaces: Effects of regularisation on localisation and classification

José del Rocio Millán Ruiz, Ricardo Andres Chavarriaga Lozano, Mohit Kumar Goel

Estimation of intracranial sources, using inverse solutions methods, has been proposed as a mean to improve performance in non-invasive brain-computer interfaces. These methods estimate the activity of a large number of neural sources from a smaller number ...

Cortico-reticulo-spinal circuits mediate functional recovery after spinal cord contusion

Léonie Asboth

After a spinal cord injury (SCI), only half of affected individuals regain voluntary control of leg movements below the level of the lesion. Anatomical, electrophysiological and imaging data revealed that even the most severe forms of SCI usually spare a s ...

Cerebral metabolic effects of exogenous lactate supplementation on the injured human brain

Pierre Magistretti, Jocelyne Bloch, Reto Meuli

Experimental evidence suggests that lactate is neuroprotective after acute brain injury; however, data in humans are lacking. We examined whether exogenous lactate supplementation improves cerebral energy metabolism in humans with traumatic brain injury (T ...

Inverse Solutions for Brain Computer Interface

José del Rocio Millán Ruiz, Mohit Kumar Goel

Inverse solution allows to estimate sources that generate a given scalp EEG topography. Recently, it has been used in Brain Computer Interfaces (BCIs) to extract robust features based on the hypothesis that projection onto the source space (high dimensiona ...

Morphology-driven automatic segmentation of MR images of the neonatal brain

Michel Kocher, Laura Ioana Gui, François Lazeyras, Radoslaw Lisowski

The segmentation of MR images of the neonatal brain is an essential step in the study and evaluation of infant brain development. State-of-the-art methods for adult brain MRI segmentation are not applicable to the neonatal brain, due to large differences i ...

Calculation of intracranial pressure in human brain using Darcy's and Biot's models

Jean-Marie Drezet, Kamal Shahim

Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) is a colourless liquid that fills the ventricular space and serves several functions like buoyancy, chemical stability and protection. CSF is produced within the ventricles and partly by the ependyma cells. Part of it seeps toward ...
