Other neurological lesions have been linked to CPM and EPM including cerebral cortical sclerosis and involvement of the posterior columns ... The lesion may extend up to the midbrain, but only very ...

Using α-syn fibril-induced PD model, researchers aimed to restore the degenerated dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra of the midbrain by the wireless DBS nanosystem. After stereotactic ...

Measurements of midbrain atrophy including the midbrain to pons ratio, the MRPI and the MRPI 2.0 are the most robust biomarkers for clinical diagnosis of PSP-RS at the individual level (level 2).

The stronger all aspects of brain health and development are, the more you can experience a dip in brain health without it resulting in a disruption in life. This may be why individuals with a ...

Brain samples contained 10 times more microplastics than other organs. The brain may contain higher -- and more significant -- amounts of microplastics than other organs in the body, according to ...

They are less frequent in midbrain lesions (interstitial nucleus of Cajal) and rare in cortical lesions. Isolated body lateropulsion is chiefly found in caudal lateral medullary brainstem lesions.
