According to embodied simulation theories, others’ emotions are recognized by the unconscious mimicking of observed facial expressions, which requires implicit activation motor programs that produce a specific expression. Motor responses performed during expression given emotion hypothesized be directly linked autonomic associated with emotional behavior. We tested this hypothesis in 9 children (<mml:math xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML"...
An increasing number of clinical research studies have used repetitive peripheral magnetic stimulation (rPMS) in recent years to alleviate pain or improve motor function. rPMS is non-invasive, painless, and administrated over nerve, spinal cord roots, a muscle using coil affixed the skin connected rapid-rate stimulator. Despite impact scientific interest, methodological inconsistencies incomplete details findings between could make demonstration difficult replicate. Given lack guidelines...
The p.D202N mutation in PRNP is a rare variant associated with Gerstmann-Sträussler-Scheinker disease (GSS), genetic form of prion cerebral amyloidosis. To date, there have been only 4 reports this worldwide and one detailed clinical study (table e-1, [links.lww.com/NXG/A223][1]).1–4 Here, we describe the phenotype results neuroradiologic laboratory investigations an Italian patient carrying variant.

Sleep paralysis (SP) is a condition where person paralyzed upon waking or falling asleep. SP afflicts ~20% of people, and also one the typical symptoms in narcolepsy. During sleeper may experience hallucinations. Unsurprisingly, associated with great fear globally. To date, there are no published clinical trials outcome data for treating this condition. However, few non-pharmacological interventions have been proposed, including cognitive behavioral approaches, case studies showing...
Objective: Complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS) is a common condition characterized by the changes in brain that are not yet addressed conventional treatment regimens. Repetitive peripheral magnetic stimulation (rPMS) of muscles painless and non-invasive can influence these (the induction plasticity) to reduce improve motricity. In patients with CRPS, this open-label pilot study tested rPMS after-effects on intensity sensorimotor control upper limb along excitability primary motor cortex...
Introduction: Anti-leucine-rich glioma-inactivated 1 limbic encephalitis (LGI1-LE) is an autoimmune disorder associated with antibodies to voltage-gated potassium channels (VGKC). It a non-paraneoplastic and partially reversible that can be diagnosed via serological testing. Untreated LGI1-LE neurocognitive as well neuropsychiatric sequelae. Here we report the neuropsychological clinical profile of patient following three different treatment approaches: plasmapheresis (PA), intravenous...
Semantic variant primary progressive aphasia (svPPA) is a rare neurodegenerative disease characterized by loss of semantic knowledge. Patients with svPPA show anomia, impaired word comprehension, poor object recognition, and difficulties in retrieving information. also unique "natural" model that allows clinicians cognitive neuroscientists to study the organization memory because only knowledge affected initial period disease, relative sparing other domains. In clinical practice, commonly...
A case report of a 74-year-old male presenting with an atypical multimodal semantic impairment. The patient was diagnosed Waldenström macroglobulinemia (WM) for which he received allogeneic bone marrow transplantation (BMT) due to disease progression. Following BMT, developed sudden onset difficulties that have remained unchanged eight years. No other cognitive functions been affected and his activities daily living remain fully preserved.The assessed at our neuropsychology unit six...
This study investigated multisensory integration in 29 medium-to-high (mid-highs) and 24 low-to-medium (mid-lows) hypnotizable individuals, classified according to the Stanford Hypnotic Susceptibility Scale, Form A. Participants completed a simultaneity judgment (SJ) task, where an auditory visual stimulus were presented close proximity their body range of 11 onset asynchronies. Results show that mid-highs prone judge audiovisual stimuli as simultaneous over wider time intervals between...
