Impact of Weekly Community-Based Dance Training Over 8 Months on Depression and Blood Oxygen Level-Dependent Signals in the Subcallosal Cingulate Gyrus for People With Parkinson Disease: Observational Study.

Background: Dance has emerged as a complementary treatment that may promote adaptive neural plasticity while improving symptoms of Parkinson disease (PD), such as balance, gait, posture, and walking. Understanding brain changes that arise from participation in dance interventions is important as these neural plastic changes play an important role in protecting and healing the brain. Although dance has been shown to improve PD motor and nonmotor symptoms, the neural mechanisms underlying these changes, specifically depression and mood, remain elusive.

Neural effects of multisensory dance training in Parkinson's disease: evidence from a longitudinal neuroimaging single case study.

Dance is associated with beneficial outcomes in motor and non-motor domains in Parkinson's disease (PD) and regular participation may help delay symptom progression in mild PD. However, little is known about the neurobiological mechanisms of dance interventions for PD. The present case study explored potential neuroplastic changes in a 69-year-old male with mild PD participating in regular dance classes over 29 weeks.

Palladium-Catalyzed Addition of Aryl Halides to -Sulfinylamines for the Synthesis of Sulfinamides.

Sulfinamides are versatile, synthetically useful intermediates, and final motifs. Traditional methods to synthesize sulfinamides generally require substrates with preinstalled sulfur centers. However, these precursors have limited commercial availability, and the associated synthetic routes often require harsh reaction conditions and highly reactive reagents, thus severely limiting their application.

A new treatment for breast cancer using a combination of two drugs: AZD9496 and palbociclib.

In this study, we examined a mathematical model of breast cancer (BC) treatment that combines an oral oestrogen receptor inhibitor, AZD9496 with Palbociclib, a selective inhibitor of cyclin- dependent kinases CDK4 and CDK6. Treatment is described by analytical functions that enable us to control the dosage and time interval of the treatment, thus personalising the treatment for each patient. Initially, we investigated the effect of each treatment separately, and finally, we investigated the combination of both treatments.

Laryngeal office-based procedures: A safe approach.

Purpose: Laryngeal surgeries using a flexible nasopharyngoscope equipped with an operative channel has gained popularity, with gradual increase in the variety of interventional office-based procedures, under local anesthesia. The purpose of this study is to analyze the tolerance of such procedures.

Materials And Methods: Retrospective cohort study.
