TY - JOUR. T1 - Skin grafting facilitates the maintenance of head recording chambers for neurophysiological recording. AU - Ahn, Joong Ho. AU - Dai, Chenkai. AU - Della Santina, Charles Coleman. PY - 2013/5/15. Y1 - 2013/5/15. N2 - Maintaining a clean, quiescent tissue surface that is free of granulation and infection in the floor of a head-mounted chamber used for intracranial single-unit recording studies typically requires frequent cleaning. Considering the favourable outcomes of ontological surgical techniques that have long been used to create a dry, skin-lined mastoid cavity in patients with chronic otitis media, skin should be an ideal biological dressing to cover otherwise exposed dura mater in recording chambers. In chambers that required frequent cleaning, we harvested a thin layer of skin without hair follicles from the medial surface of the upper arms of two Rhesus monkeys and grafted the skin on the exposed dura surface. Each case resulted in a clean, dry, insensate, self-healing, ...

BAEPs are performed primarily in patients with suspected neurologic disorders to determine whether there is evidence of a brain stem lesion. BAEPs are highly sensitive to auditory conduction defects, but the findings are not pathologically specific. BAEPs provide data that are highly reproducible and objective and lend themselves to sequential studies for comparison. BAEPs are noninvasive and can be performed not only in the clinical neurophysiology laboratory but also in a hospital room or the intensive care unit. Patient cooperation is not critical, and BAEP waveforms are resistant to the effects of drugs or anesthesia. Important factors that need to be considered for accurate interpretation of BAEPs include the patients age, sex, and auditory acuity. The diagnostic yield of BAEPs has been confirmed in patients with acoustic neuromas, MS, or intra-axial brain stem lesions involving the auditory pathways. BAEPs appear to be complementary to structural neuroimaging studies such as MRI. ...

My name is Marijn Vellinga and I grew up in Twente. I finished my bachelor Biology in 2018 at Utrecht University. During my bachelor, I mainly focused on neurobiology and behavioural biology and did a small internship during which I observed the behaviour of gorillas in zoos. Currently, I am following the master program Neuroscience and Cognition in Utrecht and more specifically, the track experimental and clinical neuroscience. I just finished an internship project at the UMC Utrecht in which I set up an experimental design to investigate predictive factors for post-traumatic stress disorder using behavioural tasks in an animal model for this disease. After these internships, I decided that I wanted to do something more neurobiology-related for my last internship. Therefore, I am really happy with the opportunity to do an internship at the University of Twente and work with brain cells in a lab. ...

These observations indicate the relatively high amplitude of the first wave of the BAEP in vertex-to-ear electrode derivations occurs because the reference electrode at the ear is located where it sees the negative end of the dipole layer generating the wave (trace C) and the vertex electrode sees the positive end (trace B). The commonly used derivation V-E (trace A, above) thus algebraically sums derivations B and C, resulting in the high amplitude of the first wave. Note that this is at the expense of absence of intermediate waves and lower amplitudes in the later waves of the BAEP. (See also,26.) It is interesting to consider the possible influence of the stimulus characteristics on these results. For these experiments, half-sine wave, unfiltered clicks were used, thus the stimulus contained a specific, limited range of frequencies and could have activated maximally only on a limited length of the cochlear spiral. Conceivably, stimuli such as rectangular pulses, filtered clicks, or tone pips ...

We review the data concerning the neurophysiology of deep brain stimulation (DBS) in humans, especially in reference to Parkinsons disease. The electric field generated by DBS interacts with the brain in complex ways, and several variables could influence the DBS-induced biophysical and clinical effects. The neurophysiology of DBS comprises the DBS-induced effects per se as well as neurophysiological studies designed to record electrical activity directly from the basal ganglia (single-unit or local field potential) through the electrodes implanted for DBS. In the subthalamic nucleus, DBS locally excites and concurrently inhibits at single-unit level, synchronizes low-frequency activity, and desynchronizes beta activity and also induces neurochemical changes in cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP) and GABA concentrations. DBS-induced effects at system level can be studied through evoked potentials, autonomic tests, spinal cord segmental system, motor cortical and brainstem excitability, gait, ...

David Hunter Hubel FRS (February 27, 1926 - September 22, 2013) was a Canadian neurophysiologist noted for his studies of the structure and function of the visual cortex. He was co-recipient with Torsten Wiesel of the 1981 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine (shared with Roger W. Sperry), for their discoveries concerning information processing in the visual system. For much of his career, Hubel was the John Franklin Enders University Professor of Neurobiology at Harvard Medical School. In 1978, Hubel and Wiesel were awarded the Louisa Gross Horwitz Prize from Columbia University. David H. Hubel was born in Windsor, Ontario, Canada, to American parents in 1926. His grandfather emigrated as a child to the United States from the Bavarian town of Nördlingen. In 1929, his family moved to Montreal, where he spent his formative years. His father was a chemical engineer and Hubel developed a keen interest in science right from childhood, making many experiments in chemistry and electronics. From age ...

The colony-stimulating factor 1 receptor (CSF1R) is a key regulator of myeloid lineage cells. Genetic loss of the CSF1R blocks the normal population of resident microglia in the brain that originates from the yolk sac during early development. However, the role of CSF1R signaling in microglial homeostasis in the adult brain is largely unknown. To this end, we tested the effects of selective CSF1R inhibitors on microglia in adult mice. Surprisingly, extensive treatment results in elimination of ∼99% of all microglia brain-wide, showing that microglia in the adult brain are physiologically dependent upon CSF1R signaling. Mice depleted of microglia show no behavioral or cognitive abnormalities, revealing that microglia are not necessary for these tasks. Finally, we discovered that the microglia-depleted brain completely repopulates with new microglia within 1 week of inhibitor cessation. Microglial repopulation throughout the CNS occurs through proliferation of nestin-positive cells that then ...

Neurophysiology has been a subject of study since as early as 4,000 B.C. In the early B.C. years, most studies were of different natural sedatives like alcohol and poppy plants. In 1700 B.C., the Edwin Smith surgical papyrus was written. This papyrus was crucial in understanding how the ancient Egyptians understood the nervous system. This papyrus looked at different case studies about injuries to different parts of the body, most notably the head. Beginning around 460 B.C., Hippocrates began to study epilepsy, and theorized that it had its origins in the brain. Hippocrates also theorized that the brain was involved in sensation, and that it was where intelligence was derived from. Hippocrates, as well as most ancient Greeks, believed that relaxation and a stress free environment was crucial in helping treat neurological disorders. In 280 B.C., Erasistratus of Chios theorized that there were divisions in the vestibular processing the brain, as well as deducing from observation that sensation was ...
Aphang provided an overview of the much neglected and currently overhyped glial cells. While glia have been discussed and described by Rudolf Virchow way back in 1856 and Kuffler etal did significant work on the electrical coupling between glia in 1966 but most of the research on glia have taken place after 1985. A look at the percentage of glia in the nervous system reveals a phylogenetic progression. For example, glial cells in the leech account for less than 10% of all its neural cells, in mice and rats this comes up to about 50% and in humans it is estimated to be around 90 ...

Further to this issue: There is an excellent review book on magnetic stimulation : Chokroverty, S.(ed.) (1990) Magnetic Stimulation in Clinical Neurophysiology. Boston: Butterworths Publ. ISBN: 0-409-90151-2 There are about half a dozen chapters on cortical stimulation via high intensity magnetic fields, with some work on frontal area effects (limited to frontal speech areas). I would guess that attempting to directly stimulate the frontal lobes/poles would be likely to induce muscle activity around the eyes and facial areas, let alone what activity might be induced in the frontal cortex neurons. Also, some indication of the non-muscular effects of magnetic stimulation are provided in a chapter by Amassian, Maccabee, Cracco and Cracco. Occipital stimulation suppressed visual perception of letter stimuli, with some selectivity over perception being indicatedby changing the orientation of the stimulus pulse. +----------------------------------------------------------------------------+ + Dr. ...

by Physicians Weekly , Aug 16, 2012. Paraparesis, paraplegia, and quadriplegia are potential complications of spinal cord surgeries or procedures that put the spinal cord at risk. Intraoperative monitoring can alert surgeons and anesthesiologists when patients are at risk for these complications, allowing for prompt treatment to reduce patient harm when warnings are raised. Surgery can then be modified through various interventions, such as reducing the degree of distraction, adjusting retractors, removing or adjusting grafts or hardware, reimplanting or unclamping arteries, and placing vascular bypass grafts. Time to Take a Closer Look at Spinal Surgery In the February 21, 2012 issue of Neurology, my colleagues and I at the American Academy of Neurology and American Clinical Neurophysiology Society published an evidence-based guideline update on intraoperative spinal monitoring with somatosensory and motor evoked potentials. The guideline update was needed because the field of intraoperative ...

Services are offered as modules which can be customized:. Electrophysiology (EEG/ERP) hardware/software is provided to conduct EEG/ERP experiments at the clinical study site (any CRO/hospital in Europe or beyond). On-site technical training of local staff (e.g. study nurses) is provided if needed by Pharmaimage to conduct the electrophysiological (EEG/ERP) experiments. Quantitative (pharmacodynamic) EEG/ERP data analyses (e.g. power spectra, time-frequency analyses, source analyses) are conducted in Berlin. Pharmaimage recently also developed a novel EEG monitoring system for safety assessment during/after dosing/dose escalation e.g. for early detection of seizure activity (e.g. with glutamatergic compounds) or toxic encephalopathy. While the Pharmaimage EEG monitoring equipment can be located at any CRO/hospital (worldwide), the clinical EEG assessments are conducted in real-time (remotely) in Berlin by a certified clinical neurophysiologist (pharmaco-EEG expert). Safety monitoring data can be ...

A new drug may treat epilepsy and prevent tinnitus by selectively affecting potassium channels in the brain, UConn neurophysiologist Anastasios Tzingounis and colleagues report in the 10 June Journal of Neuroscience.d Epilepsy and tinnitus are both caused by overly excitable nerve cells. Healthy nerves have a built-in system that slams on the brakes when they get too excited. But in some people this braking system doesnt work, and the nerves run amok, signaling so much that the brain gets overloaded and has a seizure (epilepsy) or hears phantom ringing (tinnitus). About 65 million people worldwide are affected by epilepsy. The numbers on tinnitus are not as clearcut, but the American Tinnutus Association estimates 2 million people have tinnitus so disabling they have troubling funct.... ...
Suffering a direct blow to the head isnt the only danger as injuries from acceleration or deceleration can cause brain injuries from the shock due to sudden changes in speed. Regardless of direct contact with the head, medical evidence has shown that your brain can still become bruised from an impact inside of your skull due to impact at high speeds. The expertise of neurologists and neurophysiologists is needed to determine the severity of these injuries.. Severe and traumatic brain injuries are capable of permanently disabling the sufferer, leaving them at the mercy of this injury for the rest of their life, in some cases severely impairing movement or cognitive ability. If you or someone you love has suffered such a traumatic brain injury due to someone elses negligence, you may be eligible for substantial damages, reflecting current and future financial losses, as well as emotional damages. At the Seitz Law Firm, these kinds of cases are a specialty, and as such, the firm takes a proactive ...
1874-1965) American neurophysiologist. Erlanger, the son of a German immigrant drawn to California in the gold rush, was born in San Francisco. He was educated at the University of California and at Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore, where in 1899 he obtained his MD. After working on the staff for a few years Erlanger moved to the University of Wisconsin (1906) to accept the chair of physiology. In 1910 he moved to Washington University, St. Louis, where he held the chair of physiology in the Medical School until his retirement in 1944.. Between 1921 and 1931 Erlanger carried out some fundamental research on the functions of nerve fibers with his former pupil and colleague, Herbert Gasser. They investigated the transmission of a nerve impulse along a frog nerve kept in a moist chamber at constant temperature. Their innovation was to study the transmission with the cathode-ray oscillograph, invented by Ferdinand Braun in 1897, which enabled them to picture the changes the impulse underwent as ...
As the first study to demonstrate cross-modal integration of information about identity in animals, the experiment by Proops and colleagues (1) is likely to stimulate similar tests on many other species. Indeed, ethologists have some way to go before they catch up to neurophysiologists, who have been actively investigating sensory integration in the brain in the past few years. For example, both Poremba (15) and Gil da Costa et al. (16) found that, when rhesus macaques hear one of their own species vocalizations, they exhibit neural activity not only in areas associated with auditory processing, but also in higher-order visual areas, including the superior temporal sulcus (STS), an area that is known to be involved in recognizing talker identity in both humans (17) and monkeys (18). Auditory and visual areas also have extensive anatomical connections (19). Ghazanfar et al. (20) studied cross-modal integration by using the coos and grunts of rhesus macaques. They found clear evidence that cells ...
Epilepsy occurs in 0.5-0.7% of the population, of which 25% are children. 30% Of patients with focal epilepsy do not respond well to medication and half of them are eligible for epilepsy surgery. In recent years, the importance of early epilepsy surgery has been stressed, as successful surgery may lead seizure and medication freedom and improved social and cognitive development, especially in children. The current success rate of epilepsy surgery is around 65%; During surgery intracranial electrocorticography (acute ECoG, aECoG) is recorded in some medical centers. The presence of epileptiform brian activity, spikes, identified by clinical neurophysiologists, is used to guide the neurosurgeon in the extent of the brain tissue that needs to be resected. Spikes are considered markers of the presence of epilepsy. High Frequency Oscillations (HFOs, ,80-500Hz) in the ECoG have recently been identified as a new biomarker for epileptogenic tissue. Retrospective research shows that their local presence ...
