Background: Arterial spin labeling (ASL) is a noninvasive brain perfusion magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) technique that has not been assessed in dogs with meningoencephalitis of unknown origin (MUO).

Hypothesis/objectives: Assess brain perfusion changes characteristics before and after medical treatment, and investigate the role of ASL perfusion in the diagnosis and prognosis of MUO in dogs.

Animals: Thirty-one dogs with presumed MUO.

Background: Bilateral hemorrhagic thalamic lesions in dengue encephalitis resemble lesions seen in acute necrotizing encephalopathy (ANE). We investigate whether dengue-associated ANE (DANE) should be considered an ANE variant or a mimic.

Methods: Systematic review of dengue encephalitis literature from PubMed and SCOPUS (inception to December 31, 2022).

This study aimed to explore the intricate relationship between mitochondrial dysfunction, infection, and neuroinflammation, focusing specifically on the impact of pathogenic epitopes of the Epstein-Barr Virus (EBV) nuclear antigen 1 (EBNA1) in a mouse model of mitochondrial dysfunctions. The investigation included female middle-aged and C57BL/6J wild-type mice immunized with EBNA1 or with active experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) induction by the myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein (MOG) peptide. The mice developed more severe EAE than the wild-type mice.

Article Synopsis
  • Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (ME/CFS) and Post COVID-19 Condition (PCC) share similar debilitating symptoms, including fatigue and cognitive issues, impacting quality of life and functionality.
  • The study involved Australian adults with ME/CFS and PCC, using self-reported questionnaires to assess symptoms and health outcomes, revealing significant differences in age and symptom associations between the two groups.
  • Findings suggest that illness duration influences symptom severity, highlighting the need for clearer diagnostic criteria for PCC to better identify individuals at risk of developing chronic ME/CFS-like illnesses.

Background: Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is an autoimmune neurodegenerative disease, whose primary hallmark is the occurrence of inflammatory lesions in white and grey matter structures. Increasing evidence in MS patients and respective murine models reported an impaired ionic homeostasis driven by inflammatory-demyelination, thereby profoundly affecting signal propagation. However, the impact of a focal inflammatory lesion on single-cell and network functionality has hitherto not been fully elucidated.
