The Dynamics of Axon Bifurcation Development in the Cerebral Cortex of Typical and Acallosal Mice.

The corpus callosum (CC) is a major interhemispheric commissure of placental mammals. Early steps of CC formation rely on guidance strategies, such as axonal branching and collateralization. Here we analyze the time-course dynamics of axonal bifurcation during typical cortical development or in a CC dysgenesis mouse model.

Resting metabolic rate analysis in chronic hemiparesis patients.

The objective of the present study was to compare resting metabolic rate (RMR) of chronic hemiparetic patients to sedentary health individuals. The sample was composed of 16 individuals, that were divided into two groups. The first group had eight hemiparetic patients and the second group was formed by eight sedentary individuals.
