Cognitive decline due to Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is frequent in the geriatric population, which has been disproportionately affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. In this study, we investigated the levels of angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2), a regulator of the renin-angiotensin system and t...
Track 14: Brain and Spine Neurosurgery Neurosurgery is a complex surgical method that presupposes treatment, diagnosis, and rehabilitation of disorders affecting any region of the Nervous System. Some of the preponderance common Neuro surgeries are skull base surgery, Image Guided Surgery, Laser Surgery...

et al. Inhibition of SRGAP2 function by its human-specific paralogs induces neoteny during spine maturation. Cell 149, 923–935 (2012). Together with reference 157, this paper shows how a human-specific duplication in recent human history may have lead to prolonged neurodevelopment and increased...
The neurobiological basis of learning is reflected in adaptations of brain structure, network organization and energy metabolism. However, it is still unknown how different neuroplastic mechanisms act together and if cognitive advancements relate to gene

The number of intersections, total intersections, and spine density were reduced, and the number of swollen spines was increased in WT mice after 14 days of injury (Fig. 2B–E) when cortical function performance had already recovered. Those parameters were improved after 28 days as enhanced ...
Not only do male rats improve their performance in response to stress, whereas the female's learning is impaired, but stress induces op- posite effects in the two sexes on dendritic spine formation of CA1 pyramidal neuron dendrites (Shors et al., 2001). In this in- stance, if only males...
In patients with Parkinson-related dementia, the cognitive functions (California Verbal learning test, Weschler, verbal fluency, etc.), evaluated in double blind, were identical at the end of the two 6-week randomized periods when the stimulator was either on or off (Gratwicke et al., 2018)....
