Superficial Siderosis and Anticoagulation Therapy: Different Presentations, Different Outcomes by Rui Duarte Barreto, Luís Ruano, Vítor Tedim Cruz, Carlos Veira, Paula Coutinho

“…Two Caucasian women, both under long-term oral anticoagulation: a 74 year old woman with slowly progressive hearing loss and mild cerebellar ataxia; a 72 year old woman suffering from behavioural changes, rapidly progressive cognitive decline and latter developing paraparesis. Magnetic resonance imaging showed striking hypointensities along the surfaces of cerebellum, brainstem, frontotemporal cortices, spinal cord, and lumbar arachnoid therefore suggesting superficial siderosis. …”

Brain plasticity associated with prolonged shooting training: a multimodal neuroimaging investigation from a cross-sectional study by Keying Zhang, Tao Zhao, Yu Ding, Jia Cheng, Chunmei Cao

“…BackgroundAlthough training has been recognized as a potential contributor to neuroplasticity in athletes, the impact of prolonged shooting training on human brain plasticity remains unclear in the existing literature.MethodsIn this cross-sectional study, we used a multimodal neuroimaging analysis, including the analysis of functional blood oxygenation level-dependent (BOLD) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) images, structural T1-weighted MRI images, and diffusion MRI images, to systematically identify differences between elite shooters and normal controls.ResultsThe results showed that compared to male normal controls, male elite shooters had higher regional homogeneity (ReHo) in the frontal lobe, parietal lobe, precuneus, thalamus, and cingulate gyrus, as well as higher functional connectivity between the medial frontal cortex (MedFC) and temporooccipital middle temporal gyrus (toMTG). …”
