Background: Asymmetric landing kinetics 6 months after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) are associated with higher risk of second anterior cruciate ligament injury. Little is known about landing kinetics after ACLR with an all-soft tissue quadriceps tendon (QT) autograft despite its increasingly common use in young, active patients.
Purpose/hypothesis: The purpose of this study was to compare landing kinetics during a bilateral drop vertical jump (DVJ) 6 months after ACLR in participants who had undergone primary ACLR with a QT or bone-patellar tendon-bone (BTB) autograft.

Dopaminergic (DA) neurons of the substantia nigra pars compacta (SNc) and ventral tegmental area (VTA) play a crucial role in controlling animals' orienting and approach behaviors toward relevant environmental stimuli. The ventral midbrain receives sensory input from the superior colliculus (SC), a tectal region processing information from contralateral receptive fields of various modalities. Given the significant influence of dopamine release imbalance in the left and right striatum on animals' movement direction, our study aimed to investigate the lateralization of the connection between the lateral SC and the midbrain DA system in male rats.

Electroencephalogram (EEG) monitoring during electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) is commonly done using a 2-channel EEG in order to capture activity from both brain hemispheres, though many institutions may instead opt to utilize a 1-channel EEG, often for reasons of convenience. We present a novel case of asymmetric termination of EEG seizure activity during an acute course of right unilateral ECT, prompting a full neurological workup to investigate potential underlying structural or physiological causative factors. This case assists in informing the necessity of bilateral hemispheric EEG monitoring as well as highlights the importance of searching for undiagnosed or latent neurological dysfunction in certain clinical situations arising during ECT.

The prevalence of unilateral deafness (SSD) or asymmetric hearing loss (AHL) among patients with hearing impairments ranges from 7.2% to 15.0%, indicating a relatively significant proportion.
