Does Teething Disrupt Infant Sleep? A Longitudinal Auto-Videosomnography Study.

Objective: To examine prospectively the relationship between teething and infant sleep using objective sleep measurements.

Study Design: Over a 4-week period, 849 infants aged 3-18 months (mean = 8.4 ± 1.

The distribution and severity of lower-limb hypertonicity and spasticity differentially impacts walking speed in people with neurological injuries.

Purpose: To investigate the relationship between the distribution and severity of hypertonicity and spasticity on walking speed in people with neurological injuries.

Material/methods: This cross-sectional observation cohort study used the Modified Ashworth Scale (MAS) and Modified Tardieu Scale (MTS) to assess hypertonicity and spasticity of the gastrocnemius, soleus, hamstrings and quadriceps. Participants were classified as having a distal (gastrocnemius and/or soleus), proximal (hamstrings and/or quadriceps) or mixed distribution of hypertonicity or spasticity.

Untangling sporadic brain arteriovenous malformations: towards targeting the KRAS/MAPK pathway.

Brain arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) are vascular lesions characterized by abnormal connections between parenchymal arteries and veins, bypassing a capillary bed, and forming a nidus. Brain AVMs are consequential as they are prone to rupture and associated with significant morbidity. They can broadly be subdivided into hereditary vs.
