Stable coding of aversive associations in medial prefrontal populations by Herry, Cyril, Jercog, Daniel

“…While studies at the single-cell level have demonstrated the involvement of this area in various aspects of fear processing, such as the encoding of threat-related cues and fear expression, an increasingly prevalent idea in the systems neuroscience field is that populations of neurons are, in fact, the essential unit of computation in many integrative brain regions such as prefrontal areas. What mPFC neuronal populations represent when we face threats? …”

Anterior clinoid process metastasis with sudden loss of vision: role of emergency optic nerve decompression by Marta Rico-Pereira, Fernando Muñoz-Hernández

“…Case presentation We report the case of a 41-year-old male patient with a diagnosis of radius leiomyosarcoma, who underwent surgery in 2014, with bone and lung metastases, who had been treated with chemotherapy and appeared to have the disease controlled at his last follow-up. 6 years later, he developed a one month history of progressive unilateral loss of visual acuity and visual field defect (initially quadrantanopia that progressed to nasal hemianopia). Brain imaging showed a contrast-enhancing lesion affecting the left anterior clinoid process with extension to the cavernous sinus and sphenoid sinus, causing compression of the left optic nerve. …”

Effects of B-Blockers on the Sympathetic and Cytokines Storms in Covid-19. by Al-kuraishy, Hayder M., Al-Gareeb, Ali Ismail, Mostafa-Hedeab, Gomaa, Keneth Iceland, Kasozi, Zirintunda, Gerald, Aslam, Akhmed, Allahyani, Mamdouh, Welburn, Susan Christina, Batiha, Gaber El-Saber

“…The potential mechanisms of SS in Covid-19 are through different pathways such as hypoxia, which activate the central sympathetic center through carotid bodies chemosensory input and induced proinflammatory cytokines, which cross the blood-brain barrier and activation of the sympathetic center. b2-receptors signaling pathway play a crucial role in the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines, macrophage activation, and B-cells for the production of antibodies with inflammation exacerbation. b-blockers have anti-inflammatory effects through reduction release of pro-inflammatory cytokines with inhibition of NF-kB. …”
