Object: Tumors in the temporo-mesial region often extend into the insula and vice versa. The present study investigated the results of a surgical strategy that combines principles of tumor and epilepsy surgery.
Methods: We retrospectively analyzed 157 consecutive patients with intrinsic brain tumors in the temporo-mesial region, with varying degrees of extensions into the insula (44 patients, 28.
Objective: Cognitive decline in Parkinson disease (PD) is a disabling and highly variable non-motor feature. While cholinergic systems degeneration is linked to cognitive impairments in PD, most prior research reported cross-sectional associations. We aimed to fill this gap by investigating whether baseline regional cerebral vesicular acetylcholine transporter ligand [ F]-fluoroethoxybenzovesamicol ([ F]-FEOBV) binding predicts longitudinal cognitive changes in mild to moderate, non-demented PD subjects.

Background: Recently a new surgical technique for intracorneal ring-segments (ICRS) assisted by femtosecond laser (FSL) called ByLimB was developed, involving the creation of the incision from a paralimbic region. This study aims to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the ByLimb technique following one year of follow-up.
Methods: A prospective, single-center study was conducted at the Zaldivar Institute in Buenos Aires, Argentina.

Background And Objective: Stereoelectroencephalography (SEEG) is an invasive monitoring method designed to define and localize the epileptogenic zone (EZ) and explore the putative network responsible for the electroclinical seizures using anatomo-functional-electroclinical correlations. When indicated by semiology in selected patients, exploration of both limbic and paralimbic (PL) regions is indispensable. However, the PL cortex is located in deep and highly vascularized areas in proximity to the anterior Sylvian fissure and middle cerebral artery branches.

Background: Observations from different fields of research coincide in indicating that a defective gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) interneuron system may be among the primary factors accounting for the varied clinical expression of schizophrenia. GABA interneuron deficiency is locally expressed in the form of neural activity desynchronization. We mapped the functional anatomy of local synchrony in the cerebral cortex in schizophrenia using functional connectivity MRI.
