Causal Link between Ventricular Ectopy and Concussion by J. Patrick Neary, Jyotpal Singh, Jonathan P. Christiansen, Taylor A. Teckchandani, Kirsty L. Potter

“…We present a unique case study report of a male individual with a history of mild nonischaemic cardiomyopathy, with no ventricular ectopy, that at the age of 76 years sustained multiple concussions (i.e., mild traumatic brain injury) within a week of each other. Concussion symptoms included cognitive difficulties, “not feeling well,” lethargy, fatigue, and signs of depression. …”

Protection of Alzheimer’s disease progression by a human-origin probiotics cocktail by Santosh Kumar Prajapati, Shaohua Wang, Sidharth P Mishra, Shalini Jain, Hariom Yadav

“…Remarkably, feeding mice with 1 × 1011 CFU per day in drinking water for 16 weeks significantly reduced cognitive decline (measured by the Morris Water Maze test) and AD pathology markers, such as Aβ aggregation, microglia activation, neuroinflammation, and preserved blood-brain barrier (BBB) tight junctions. The beneficial effects were linked to a reduced inflammatory microbiome, leading to decreased gut permeability and inflammation in both systemic circulation and the brain. …”

Alterations of triple network dynamic connectivity and repetitive behaviors after mini-basketball training program in children with autism spectrum disorder by Weike Zhang, Kelong Cai, Xuan Xiong, Lina Zhu, Zhiyuan Sun, Sixin Yang, Wei Cheng, Haiyong Mao, Aiguo Chen

“…Abstract Physical exercise has been demonstrated to effectively mitigate repetitive behaviors in children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD), but the underlying dynamic brain network mechanisms are poorly understood. The triple network model consists of three brain networks that jointly regulate cognitive and emotional processes and is considered to be the core network underlying the aberrant manifestations of ASD. …”
