Brain Diseases: Neurodegenerative Conditions Some conditions that damage your brain and nervous system get worse over time. These are called neurodegenerative disorders and include: Parkinson's disease.Nerves in a central area of your brain slowly start to break down, which can cause issues with your...
Besides dementia or mild cognitive disorder, some other organic mental disorders, due to brain damage and brain dysfunction or to physical diseases, may affect any person, especially persons with intellectual disability (ID) or autism spectrum disorder (ASD), whose rate of physical health problems ...
Common risk factors for psychiatric and other brain disorders are likely to converge on biological pathways influencing the development and maintenance of brain structure and function across life. Using structural MRI data from 45,615 individuals aged 3–96 years, we demonstrate distinct patterns of ap...
Regarding infants, for instance, analyzing brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans in order to treat injuries and disorders caused by brain prematurity depends significantly on brain segmentation [2]. Currently, manual segmentation done by experts is the gold standard. However, it is time ...
CTRL were selected among patients hospitalized in the same department for reasons unrelated to cognitive disorders or inflammatory diseases. The study was approved by the local Ethical Committee at the time of the previous study [47] (Project identification code: MAIR 2016; ethical approval: 130/...

the group participants. In this regard, a permutation test was designed that repetitively creates two average networks for each disease group using random permutations and investigates whether these average networks are more similar to each other than the average networks of other diseases (Fig.1b)....
Deep brain stimulation (DBS), surgical procedure in which an electrode is implanted into a specific area of the brain in order to alleviate symptoms of chronic pain and of movement disorders caused by neurological disease. DBS is used primarily to treat
But serious mental decline doesn't have to be an inevitable part of aging. In fact,certain lifestyle factorshave a greater impact than your genes do on whether you'll develop memory-related diseases. As a neuroscience researcher, here are seven hard rules I live by to keep...
(sCJD). However, the characteristic waveforms do not occur in all types of prion diseases. These researchers re-evaluated the utility of EEG by focusing on the development of biomarkers. They examined if abnormal qEEG parameters can be used to measure disease progression in prion diseases or ...
