Kontinuierliches intraoperatives Neuromonitoring (cIONM) in der Kopf-Hals-Chirurgie – eine Übersicht
Zusammenfassung Obwohl die Geschichte des intraoperativen Neuromonitorings (IONM) bereits in das 19. Jahrhundert zurückdatiert werden kann, hat sich diese Methode bis vor Kurzem nicht von der reinen Differenzierung des Nervs weiterentwickelt. Erst das kontinuierliche IONM (cIONM) ermöglichte die durchgehende Analyse der Reizamplituden und -latenzen, welche mittlerweile ebenfalls in die Software gängiger Monitoringsysteme integriert wurde. Zielsetzung des cIONM ist ein Real-Time-Monitoring...

Abstract The underlying mechanisms of aggressive pituitary neuroendocrine tumors (pitNETs) are still unclear. The p16 protein, encoded by the CDKN2A tumor suppressor gene on chromosome 9p21, is commonly reported to be lost in numerous types of cancer. For this reason, this study examined to examine the status of homozygous deletion of CDKN2A in high-risk pitNETs. Thirty-eight high-risk pitNETs (30 male, 8 female) were analyzed for CDKN2A deletion by fluorescent in situ hybridization...

Abstract Holter recordings are widely used to detect cardiac events that occur transiently, such as ischemic events. Much effort has been made to detect early ischemia, thus preventing myocardial infarction. However, after detection, classification of ischemia has still not been fully solved. The main difficulty relies on the false positives produced because of non-ischemic events, such as changes in the heart rate, the intraventricular conduction or the cardiac electrical axis....

Abstract Introduction Despite aggressive treatment with chemoradiotherapy and maximum surgical resection, survival in patients with glioblastoma (GBM) remains poor. Ongoing efforts are aiming to prolong the lifespan of these patients; however, disparities exist in reported survival values with lack of clear evidence that objectively examines GBM survival trends. We aim to describe the current status and advances in the survival of patients...

Abstract Wilms tumor is the most common pediatric renal malignancy. Several genetic loci have been shown to be associated with its formation. Genetic or epigenetic aberrations at WT1 and WT2 loci have been implicated in the etiology of the majority of sporadic Wilms tumors. In our previous study, most Wilms tumors tested negative for both constitutional mutations and somatic mutations in the WT1 gene. Thus, WT2 may play an important role in these tumors. In the present study,...

Visual imprinting is a learning process whereby young animals come to prefer a visual stimulus after exposure to it (training). The intermediate medial mesopallium in the domestic chick forebrain is critical for visual imprinting and contributes to molecular regulation of memory formation. Criteria used to infer that a change following training is learning-related have been formulated and published. Cognin (protein disulphide isomerase) is one of several identified plasma membrane and mitochondrial...
Objective: Cervical spondylotic myelopathy is regarded as a chronic, special incomplete spinal cord injury, so the sensory components transmitted to thalamus decreased after distal spinal cord injury, which lead the disturbance of thalamus-cortex circuits, which might explain the alterations of clinical function of cervical spondylotic myelopathy patients. However, for lack of effective methods to evaluate the disturbance circuits and how the relative mechanism adapt to the recovery of cervical...
Objective During muscle fatigue, acute changes in the interaction between the sensorimotor cortex and peripheral neurons have been widely studied. However, it is still unclear about the effect of antagonist muscle prefatigue on corticomuscular coupling and central modulation. The purpose of this study was to investigate the changes in the magnitude of electroencephalogram-electromyography (EEG-EMG) coherence and phase synchronization index (PSI) induced by antagonistic muscle prefatigue. Methods...
The neurophysiological basis of spontaneous low-frequency brain activity has become a major theme in the study of neural function in both humans and animal models. In such studies, the anesthesia model was generally adopted. However, the effects of anesthesia on spontaneous activity remain unclear. In this work, we explored the characteristics of cerebral spontaneous low-frequency activities at different depths of anesthesia in mice. Using Fourier transformation and the multitaper analysis methods,...
Onset delay of current antidepressants is always the most significant limitation for the treatment of depression. More attention has been given to the glutamate acid system for developing fast-onset antidepressants. Xenon, acting as a well-known N-methyl-D-aspartate receptors antagonist, has been widely used clinically as anesthetics and was reported to exert antidepressant-like effects in rats under normal condition. The robust and rapid-acting antidepressant- and anxiolytic-like activities of xenon...
Recent study has demonstrated that high-intensity interval training (HIIT) and moderate-intensity continuous training (MICT) have the same effect to alleviate β-amyloid pathology in the hippocampus of APPswe/PS1dE9 (APP/PS1) mice. Activation of nucleotide binding and oligomerization domain-like receptor family pyrin domain containing 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome is pivotal and has been demonstrated to accelerate β-amyloid accumulation. The present study aimed to examine whether the exercise-induced β-amyloid...
Long non-coding (lncRNA) cancer susceptibility candidate (CASC7) plays a tumor-suppressive role in several malignancies. In this study, the role of CASC7 in neuroblastoma was investigated for the first time. We observed the downregulation of CASC7 in neuroblastoma tissues compared to non-cancer tissues of neuroblastoma patients. Across neuroblastoma tissues, CASC7 was inversely correlated with microRNA-10a (miR-10a) but positively correlated with phosphatase and tensin homolog mRNA. In neuroblastoma...
Surface texture can be perceived not only from tactile, but also from auditory and visual sensory cues. In our previous psychophysical study, we demonstrated that humans can recognize surface stickiness using only one kind of sensory modality without any difficulty. However, the brain regions that would be activated by non-corresponding sensory cues, for example, auditory and visual cues, remain unknown. In this human functional MRI study, we explored brain regions associated with surface stickiness...
