Neurology

November 2022

From the Institute of Neuroscience and Physiology (A.V., D.B., M.R., A.D., A.P., K.S.S.), Rehabilitation Medicine, Sahlgrenska Academy, University of Gothenburg, and the Sahlgrenska University Hospital; Department of Occupational Therapy and Physiotherapy (M.R.), Sahlgrenska University Hospital; Institute of Neuroscience and Physiology (A.D.), Department of Health and Rehabilitation, Sahlgrenska Academy, University of Gothenburg; and School of Health and Welfare (A.P.), Dalarna University, Falun, Sweden.

Background And Objectives: Prestroke physical activity may protect the brain from severe consequences of stroke. However, previous studies on this subject included mainly ischemic stroke cases, and the association between prestroke physical activity and outcomes after intracerebral hemorrhage is uncertain. Therefore, we sought to examine the associations between prestroke physical activity, stroke severity, and all-cause mortality after intracerebral hemorrhage in comparison with ischemic stroke.

Do Clinicians Overestimate the Severity of Intracerebral Hemorrhage?

Stroke

February 2019

From the Institute of Neuroscience and Psychology, University of Glasgow, Queen Elizabeth University Hospital, Scotland, UK.

Background and Purpose- Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) has a poorer prognosis than acute ischemic stroke (AIS). However, clinician perception of prognosis may influence treatment decisions and adversely affect outcome. On acute CT, the conspicuity of ICH compared with AIS may lead clinicians to overestimate severity and influence prognostic evaluation.

The captive brain: torture and the neuroscience of humane interrogation.

QJM

February 2018

From the Institute of Neuroscience, Trinity College, Dublin D02 PN40, Ireland.

Despite it being abhorrent and illegal, torture is sometimes employed for information gathering. However, the extreme stressors employed during torture force the brain away from the relatively narrow, adaptive range of function it operates within. Torture degrades signal-to-noise ratios of information yield and increases false positive discovery rates.
