This paper presents the results of a nationwide dental survey as far as the nutrition behavior and its determinants of the dentate Dutch population is concerned. It is found that the avoidance of sugar containing products for the sake of dental health is not very common; only 8% of the dentate population shows this behavior rather frequently. Despite the existence of a fair amount of knowledge about the relation of sugar consumption and dental health, the main part of the dentate population does not belief in the effectiveness of sugar avoidance in the preservation of the teeth. As an average the dentate Dutch takes, apart from the meals, nearly eight sugar containing products a day.

The role of cerebellum in controlling eye movements is well established, but its contribution to more complex forms of visual behavior has remained elusive. To study cerebellar activity during visual attention we recorded extracellular activity of dentate nucleus (DN) neurons in two non-human primates (NHPs). NHPs were trained to read the direction indicated by a peripheral visual stimulus while maintaining fixation at the center, and report the direction of the cue by performing a saccadic eye movement into the same direction following a delay.

Background: Modulation of physical activity represents an important intervention that may delay, slow, or prevent mild cognitive impairment (MCI) or dementia due to Alzheimer's disease (AD). One mechanism proposed to underlie the beneficial effect of physical exercise (PE) involves the apparent stimulation of adult hippocampal neurogenesis (AHN). BCI-838 is a pro-drug whose active metabolite BCI-632 is a negative allosteric modulator at group II metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluR2/3).

Autosomal dominant cerebellar ataxias (ADCA), also known as spinocerebellar ataxias (SCA) are a group of progressive neurodegenerative diseases with remarkable clinical and genetic heterogeneity. In the last ten years 20 genes were identified in the background of SCAs. One of these genes was STUB1 (STIP1 homology and U-box containing protein 1) (chromosome 16p13, NM_005861.

The aim of this survey was to gain insight into the extent to which frailty and/or dental status are related to visiting a dental practice and what barriers older (frail) people experience in this respect.

Background And Aims: Endoscopic full-thickness resection (eFTR) is emerging as a minimally invasive alternative to surgery for complex colorectal lesions. Previous studies have demonstrated favorable safety results; however, large studies representing a generalizable estimation of adverse events (AEs) are lacking. Our aim was to provide further insight in AEs after eFTR.
