Introduction: Tetraplegia causes extensive sensorimotor deficits affecting activity, participation and quality of life. People with C6-C7 tetraplegia can learn to grasp objects by performing wrist extension movement (ie, tenodesis grasp), and motor imagery (MI) added to rehabilitation significantly improved tenodesis grasp. We hypothesise that this improvement can be further boosted by adding neurofeedback during MI.

- Some patients with serious strokes can get better help from special treatments called EVT, but they need to get this treatment quickly.
- New technology is allowing doctors to use robots to help with these treatments from far away, which means care can be given even in places that are not close to big hospitals.
- For this robot help to work well, hospitals need to change how they do things and make sure they have good communication systems ready.
Article Synopsis
- Pulsatile tinnitus (PT) can severely impact quality of life and may be caused by a condition called sigmoid/transverse sinus stenosis (STSS), which has been treated with stenting techniques.
- A study involving 12 women with PT and STSS showed that a new stent called BosStent was successfully used, and patients reported complete symptom resolution within one month.
- Follow-up assessments revealed significant improvements in quality of life scores, highlighting the need for further research to confirm the safety and effectiveness of this treatment in larger patient groups.
Purpose: Pulsatile tinnitus can be caused by a high-riding jugular bulb (HRJB), characterized by the superior position of the jugular bulb in the petrous temporal bone. The anatomical position and morphology of this entity make it challenging for endovascular treatment. We report our experience with two patients successfully treated with a stent-assisted Woven EndoBridge (WEB; Microvention, Tustin, CA, USA) device.
