Evolving unilateral thalamic lesion in Phelan–McDermid syndrome: 7-year follow-up MRI and literature review

Benedetta Trotta, Manfredi Alberti, Paolo Galluzzi, Alfonso Cerase et autres

Abstract Purpose Phelan–McDermid syndrome is a rare genetic disorder caused by Shank3 protein deficiency, resulting from rearrangements of chromosome 22q13.3 in the region containing the SHANK3 gene. Shank proteins serve as pivotal scaffolding proteins in the postsynaptic density of excitatory synapses in …

Supervised—not voluntary—upper limb exercise enhances vestibular function in Parkinson’s disease

Federica Ginanneschi, David Cioncoloni, Carla Battisti, Federica Dominici et autres

Background Gait dysfunction has emerged as the greatest challenge in Parkinson disease (PD) management. Decreased vestibular efficacy may contribute to imbalance in PD. The present study aims to explore whether an upper limb aerobic exercise, performed using a device that primarily targets …

Field monitoring of the recent reactivation of the large dormant Ca’ di Sotto earthflow

Alessandro Zuccarini, Giuseppe Ciccarese, Nicola Dal Seno, Marco Bartola et autres

The reactivation of earthflows in fine-grained geological media represents a complex phenomenon characterised by transitions from prolonged dormant phases to sudden accelerations. While dormant stages typically exhibit slow movements (less than 1 m/year), critical rainfall conditions may trigger rapid surges in which …

Geomorphic analysis of digital elevation model generated from vintage aerial photographs: A glance at the pre-urbanization morphology of the active Campi Flegrei caldera

Jacopo Natale, Stefano Vitale, Lucia Monti, Roberto Isaia

Accurate digital elevation models represent the basic tool for a large spectrum of applications, including geological, architectonic, archaeological, and urbanistic studies. However, aggressive urbanization may significantly alter the morphology of areas of interest. Such is the case of the active Campi Flegrei …

Case report: A quantitative and qualitative diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) study in varicella zoster-related brachial plexopathy

Manfredi Alberti, Federica Ginanneschi, Alessandro Rossi, Lucia Monti

Diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) is considered feasible for the nerve plexuses' imaging and quantitative evaluation but its value in the clinical practice is still virtually unexplored. We present the DTI profile of a case of acute varicella-zoster virus (VZV)-related brachial plexopathy. A …

Different saccadic profile in bulbar versus spinal-onset amyotrophic lateral sclerosis

Domenica Zaino, Valeria Serchi, Fabio Giannini, Barbara Pucci et autres

Two clinical phenotypes characterize the onset of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS): the spinal variant, with symptoms beginning in the limbs, and the bulbar variant, affecting firstly speech and swallowing. The two variants show some distinct features in the histopathology, localization and prognosis, …

Comparison of Different Post-Processing Algorithms for Dynamic Susceptibility Contrast Perfusion Imaging of Multiple Sclerosis Lesions: A Time to Peak Analysis

Lucia Monti, Davide Momi, Tommaso Casseri, Davide Del Roscio et autres

The purpose of the present study was to evaluate, in multiple sclerosis (MS) lesions, the diagnostic performance of two different commercial post-processing MR perfusion software. These two different algorithms for processing Dynamic susceptibility contrast (DSC) perfusion images have been used to differentiate …

Local and distributed fMRI changes induced by 40Hz gamma tACS of the bilateral dorsolateral prefrontal cortex

Sara M. Romanella, Lucia Mencarelli, Lucia Monti, Francesco Neri et autres

Abstract Over the past few years, the possibility of modulating fast brain oscillatory activity in the gamma (γ) band through transcranial alternating current stimulation (tACS) has been discussed in the context of both cognitive enhancement and therapeutic scenarios. Several neuropsychiatric and neurodegenerative …
