The motoric cognitive risk syndrome (MCR) is a novel and clinically relevant pre-dementia syndrome indicating a higher dementia risk (e.g., for Alzheimer's disease). Given that MCR prevalence is unknown in Germany, we conducted a cross-sectional study, in which 208 participants from Germany aged 50 and 82 years answered an online survey including questions to assess subjective MCR (sMCR). The adjusted sMCR prevalence was 25.3%. Adults with sMCR reported more diseases and showed negative associations with physical activity, sedentary behavior, and sleep, suggesting that lifestyle modifications can play a significant role in MCR prevention. Further research is required to complement our preliminary findings on sMCR prevalence in Germany.

Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) has gained significant attention as a potential therapeutic tool in stroke rehabilitation, promoting neuroplasticity and enhancing motor and cognitive recovery. Despite growing research, the field's evolution and key trends remain underexplored. This study aims to perform a bibliographic analysis of publications related to tDCS and stroke rehabilitation to assess the growth of the field.

Adults with cochlear implants (CIs) need periodic programming of their speech processors to take advantage of alternative adjustments. However, this requires patients to attend the CI center in person. To evaluate the feasibility of speech processor (SP) self-programming with remote assistance in CI users.

Objective: Gain-of-function variants in the KCNT1 gene, which encodes a sodium-activated potassium ion channel, drive severe early onset developmental epileptic encephalopathies including epilepsy of infancy with migrating focal seizures and sleep-related hypermotor epilepsy. No therapy provides more than sporadic or incremental improvement. Here, we report suppression of seizures in a genetic mouse model of KCNT1 epilepsy by reducing Kcnt1 transcript with divalent small interfering RNA (siRNA), an emerging variant of oligonucleotide technology developed for the central nervous system.

Subtle gait and cognitive dysfunction are common in Parkinson's disease (PD), even before most evident clinical manifestations. Such alterations can be assumed as hypothetical phenotypical and prognostic/progression markers. To compare spatiotemporal gait parameters in PD patients with three cognitive status: cognitively intact (PD-noCI), with subjective cognitive impairment (PD-SCI) and with mild cognitive impairment (PD-MCI) in order to detect subclinical gait differences.
