Here we report a case of inferior alveolar nerve (IAN), which had variability in its formation. IAN was formed by dual roots, which were branching out from the posterior division of mandibular nerve. The observed roots were forming a loop around the pterygoid part of arteria maxillaris (MA). One of the roots was superficial to the MA and the other was deep to it. It is believed that this type of morphological variation in the formation of IAN can have clinial implications, which include compression by adjacent structures and nerve entrapment. The knowledge of this variation is important to anaesthesiologists and dentists, while administering local anaesthesia. This is also enlightening to the maxillofacial surgeons, neurologists and radiologists.

Auditory verbal hallucinations (AVHs) in schizophrenia are hypothesized to involve alterations in hemispheric lateralization, but the specific neural mechanisms remain unclear. This study investigated functional intra- and inter-hemispheric connectivity to identify lateralization patterns unique to AVHs. Resting-state fMRI data were collected from 60 schizophrenia patients with persistent AVHs (p-AVH group), 39 patients without AVHs (n-AVH group), and 59 healthy controls (HC group).

Background: RNA editing represents one of the most common post-transcriptional modifications that contribute to transcriptomic diversity, impacting RNA stability and regulations. To this end, we sought to investigate brain region-specific RNA-editing signatures (RNA-editings) associated with Alzheimer's disease (AD) and the human aged brain with regulatory elements.
Method: We investigated the genome-wide landscape of RNA-editings from 4,208 (1,364 AD case vs.

Background: Surface dyslexia serves as a complementary feature in the classification of the semantic variant of Primary Progressive Aphasia (PPA), while reading deficits have also been reported in the other two PPA variants. In opaque languages, tasks involving regular and irregular words and non-words are useful tools for dyslexia diagnosis. However, in transparent languages like Spanish, where most words are regular for reading, different approaches are needed.

Background: Language impairment is common in progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP) and is often overlooked due to the severity of the motor symptoms. We investigated whether language can be used to predict PSP prognosis.
Methods: One hundred-forty-six patients with a diagnosis of possible or probable PSP from the Tilavonemab (ABBV-8E12) clinical trial were evaluated at baseline and week 32 using the Repeatable Battery for the Assessment of Neuropsychological Status (RBANS), the PSP rating scale (PSPRS) and the Schwab and England Activities of Daily Living Scale (SEADL).
