Usher syndrome is a rare autosomal recessive genetic disorder that primarily affects both vision and hearing, manifesting as sensorineural hearing loss and progressive vision loss caused by retinitis pigmentosa. The pathogenesis of retinal degeneration in Usher syndrome is still largely unknown. In this study, a novel Ush2a knockout mouse model was successfully constructed using CRISPR/Cas9 technology.

Objective: The aim of the present study is to examine the relationship between EEG measures and functional recovery in right-hemisphere stroke patients.
Methods: Participants with stroke (PS) and neurologically unimpaired controls (UC) were enrolled. At enrolment, all participants were assessed for motor and cognitive functioning with specific scales (motricity index, trunk control test, Level of Cognitive Functioning, and Functional Independence Measure (FIM).

There is a pressing need for biomarkers of violent behavior risk in psychosis. Previous research indicates that electrophysiological measures of automatic defensive reactions may have potential. The purpose of this study was to investigate associations between violent behavior in individuals with and without psychosis and electromyography (EMG) and electroencephalography (EEG) responses to startling auditory stimuli.

Background: Cardiovascular risk management is beneficial, but stringent glycemic control does not prevent the progression of distal sensorimotor polyneuropathy (DSPN). Persistent hyperglycemia-induced alterations and cardiovascular factors may contribute to diabetes-associated nerve damage. This study aimed to evaluate the correlation between skin auto-fluorescence (sAF), an indicator of dermal advanced glycation end-product (AGE) accumulations, cardiovascular risk, and changes in peripheral nerve integrity.

The organophosphorus pesticide chlormephos was tested for its potential peripheral neurotoxicity by analyzing the diphasic compound action potential (CAP) of sciatic nerves isolated from adult mice chronically exposed to a sub-lethal dose of this pesticide, compared with control age-matched animals being only exposed to the vehicle. No significant modification was detected between chlormephos-exposed and control groups in their nerve responsiveness to stimulus. Furthermore, similar values of CAP kinetic variables were obtained from the two mouse groups.
