Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging of Post-Traumatic Headache: A Systematic Review.
Curr Pain Headache Rep
January 2025
Department of Neurology, Danish Headache Center, Copenhagen University Hospital - Rigshospitalet, Valdemar Hansens Vej 5, Entrance 1A, 2600 Glostrup, Copenhagen, Denmark.
Purpose Of Review: To evaluate existing functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) studies on post-traumatic headache (PTH) following traumatic brain injury (TBI).
Recent Findings: We conducted a systematic search of PubMed and Embase databases from inception to February 1, 2024. Eligible fMRI studies were required to include adult participants diagnosed with acute or persistent PTH post-TBI in accordance with any edition of the International Classification of Headache Disorders.
Differences in technical and clinical perspectives on AI validation in cancer imaging: mind the gap!

Computational Clinical Imaging Group (CCIG), Champalimaud Research, Champalimaud Foundation, Lisbon, Portugal.
Good practices in artificial intelligence (AI) model validation are key for achieving trustworthy AI. Within the cancer imaging domain, attracting the attention of clinical and technical AI enthusiasts, this work discusses current gaps in AI validation strategies, examining existing practices that are common or variable across technical groups (TGs) and clinical groups (CGs). The work is based on a set of structured questions encompassing several AI validation topics, addressed to professionals working in AI for medical imaging.

NMR Research Unit, Queen Square MS Centre, Department of Neuroinflammation, Faculty of Brain Sciences, UCL Queen Square Institute of Neurology, University College London, Queen Square, London, WC1N 3BG, UK.
Cognitive impairment (CI) in multiple sclerosis (MS) is only partially explained by whole-brain volume measures, but independent component analysis (ICA) can extract regional patterns of damage in grey matter (GM) or white matter (WM) that have proven more closely associated with CI. Pathology in GM and WM occurs in parallel, and so patterns can span both. This study assessed whether joint-ICA of GM and WM features better explained cognitive function compared to single-tissue ICA.

November 2024
Department of Primary Care, Kansas City University College of Medicine, Department of Primary Care, Kansas City, MO, USA.
Background: It is unclear how accurately students can reproduce specific forces that are often required for physical examination maneuvers. This study aimed to determine the baseline accuracy of force application for preclinical medical students, evaluate the effectiveness of a quantitative visual feedback intervention, and investigate whether certain demographics influence accuracy.
Materials And Methods: First- and second-year medical students were enrolled and demographic data were collected.
Modifiable risk factors and symptom progression in dementia over up to 8 years-Results of the DelpHi-MV trial.
Alzheimers Dement (Amst)
January 2025
Health Care Research Deutsches Zentrum für Neurodegenerative Erkrankungen (DZNE) Greifswald Mecklenburg-Vorpommern Germany.
Introduction: This study investigated the association between modifiable factors and symptom progression in dementia over up to 8 years.
Methods: Multilevel growth curve models assessed the role of modifiable risk factors (low education, hearing impairment and its treatment, depression, physical inactivity, diabetes and its treatment, smoking, hypertension and its treatment, obesity, alcohol consumption, social isolation, and visual impairment) on cognitive and functional trajectories in 353 people with dementia.
Results: Higher education was associated with higher initial cognitive status but faster decline.
