Spinal cord stimulation (SCS) is an alternative treatment option for refractory angina. Controlled trials demonstrate symptom relief and improvement in functional status. Since patients experience retrosternal prickling during active SCS, there no blinding to or placebo control.To examine the therapeutic effects of subthreshold SCS with angina a placebo-controlled study.12 responders who had already been treated were enrolled. Patients randomised into four consecutive arms, each 4 weeks,...
To investigate whether the transient reduction in rheumatology services imposed by virus containment measures during COVID-19 pandemic was associated with disease worsening axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA), rheumatoid arthritis (RA) or psoriatic (PsA).Patient-reported activity assessed face-to-face visits and/or via a smartphone application were compared between three periods of each 2 months duration (before, and after COVID-19-wave) from January to June 2020 666 patients axSpA, RA PsA Swiss...
In humans, the most obvious functional lateralization is specialization of left hemisphere for language. Therefore, involvement right in language one remarkable findings during last two decades fMRI research. However, importance this finding continues to be underestimated. We examined interaction between hemispheres and also role From seeds representing Broca's area, we conducted a seed correlation analysis resting state data could identify an intrinsic connectivity network (ICN) overlapping...
Purpose . One of the great challenges in surgical tendon rupture repair is to minimize peritendinous adhesions. In order reduce adhesion formation, a physical barrier was applied sutured rabbit Achilles tendon, with two different immobilization protocols used postoperatively. Methods Thirty New Zealand white rabbits received laceration on 4-strand Becker suture, and half got DegraPol tube at site. While fifteen had their treated hind leg 180° stretched position during 6 weeks (adhesion...
<i>Background:</i> Previous studies have suggested an association between alexithymia and obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). However, it is unclear to which extent alexithymic traits in OCD patients reflect familial deficits cognitively processing communicating feelings that are also present their first-degree relatives. This study investigates the hypotheses of elevated level subjects with relatives compared controls <i>Methods:</i> 82 cases 169 were 76 144 from a...
A major contribution to our understanding of the aging brain either comes from studies comparing young with older adults or investigating pathological and using healthy as control group. In consequence, we know relatively well, what distinguishes old brains but that does not mean really understand structural functional transformations characterizing brain. By analyzing task-free fMRI data a large cross-sectional sample 186 (mean age = 70.4, 97 female), aimed elucidate age-related changes in...
Sports-related concussion in youth is a major public health issue. Evaluating the diffuse and often subtle changes structure function that occur brain, particularly this population, remains significant challenge. The goal of pilot study was to evaluate relationship between intrinsic dynamics brain using resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging (rs-fMRI) relate these findings structural correlates from diffusion tensor group adolescents with sports-related concussions ( n = 6)...
Prenatal maternal depression (PMD) and selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) antidepressants are associated with increased developmental risk in infants. Reports suggest that PMD is hyperconnectivity of the insula amygdala, while SSRI exposure auditory network infant brain. However, associations between functional brain organization and/or not well understood.We examined relation or neonatal organization. Infants control (n = 17), depressed SSRI-treated 20) depressed-only (HAM-D ≥ 8)...
Physical exercises and physiotherapy are of great importance for maintenance joint function in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). However, many RA complain about problems to receive prescriptions or have a lack access physiotherapy. Recent reports shown positive effects the Wii game console on physical psychosocial conditions other underlying diseases. The primary objectives this prospective controlled pilot study were investigate feasibility patients' assessment using an animated...
Abstract Abstinence is a lifelong endeavor, and the risk of relapse always present for patients with Alcohol Use Disorder (AUD). The aim study was to better understand specific characteristics intrinsic whole‐brain‐network architecture 34 AUD that may support abstinence or relapse. We used Graph Theory Analysis (GTA) resting‐state fMRI data from treatment seekers at 1 month their follow‐up as abstainers relapsers 3 months later, together 30 light/non‐drinking controls scanned same interval....
Abstract Chronic gray matter (GM) atrophy is a known consequence of moderate and severe traumatic brain injuries but has not been consistently shown in mild injury (mTBI). The aim this study was to investigate the longitudinal effect uncomplicated mTBI on brain's GM white (WM) from 6 weeks 12 months after injury. Voxel‐based‐morphometry (VBM) computed with T1‐weighted images 48 patients 37 orthopedic controls. Over period months, only who experienced mTBI, control participants, showed...

Substance use disorders (SUD) have been shown to be associated with gray matter (GM) loss, particularly in the frontal cortex. However, unclear is what degree these regional GM alterations are substance-specific or shared across different substances, and if independent of each other result system-level processes at intrinsic connectivity network level.
