Joint k-b space diffusion-weighted image reconstruction and apparent diffusion coefficient fitting for diffusion-weighted turbo-spin-echo imaging.
Med Phys
January 2025
Department of Radiation Oncology, University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center, Dallas, Texas, USA.
Background: Diffusion-weighted (DW) turbo-spin-echo (TSE) imaging offers improved geometric fidelity compared to single-shot echo-planar-imaging (EPI). However, it suffers from low signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and prolonged acquisition times, thereby restricting its applications in diagnosis and MRI-guided radiotherapy (MRgRT).
Purpose: To develop a joint k-b space reconstruction algorithm for concurrent reconstruction of DW-TSE images and the apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) map with enhanced image quality and more accurate quantitative measurements.

Background: Disease-modifying therapies can improve motor function in patients with spinal muscular atrophy (SMA), but efficacy varies between individuals. The aim was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of nusinersen treatment in children with SMA and to investigate prognostic factors.
Methods: Motor function, compound muscle action potential (CMAP), and other indicators were prospectively collected before and 14 months after nusinersen treatment.
Relationships between hearing, auditory processing, and communication in children diagnosed with auditory neuropathy spectrum disorder.

Objectives: The objectives of this study were to evaluate the relationships between auditory processing, speech discrimination, and listening and communication abilities in children diagnosed with auditory neuropathy spectrum disorder (ANSD) compared to those with normal hearing.
Methods: This was a case-control study involving seventeen participants with a diagnosis of ANSD who used spoken language as their primary mode of communication and wore hearing aids or were unaided and 21 normally hearing controls. All underwent a battery of behavioural measures of hearing, speech perception and auditory processing skills.
Evaluation of objective methods for analyzing ipsilateral motor evoked potentials in stroke survivors with chronic upper extremity motor impairment.

Ipsilateral motor evoked potentials (iMEPs) are believed to represent cortically evoked excitability of uncrossed brainstem-mediated pathways. In the event of extensive injury to (crossed) corticospinal pathways, which can occur following a stroke, uncrossed ipsilateral pathways may serve as an alternate resource to support the recovery of the paretic limb. However, iMEPs, even in neurally intact people, can be small, infrequent, and noisy, so discerning them in stroke survivors is very challenging.

Background: The regulatory role of Trimethylamine-N-oxide (TMAO) for cognition from the perspective of microbiota-gut-brain (MGB) axis in AD remains unclear.
Method: In clinical cohort study for effects of 24-week computerized cognitive training (CCT), registered on clinicaltrials.gov (NCT06094452), plasma TMAO levels were quantified using ELISA in MCI (n=39) and mild AD patients (n=35).
