TL;DR: Medical staff that performed MERS-related tasks showed the highest risk for post-traumatic stress disorder symptoms even after time had elapsed, and the risk increased even after home quarantine.

TL;DR: This report identifies a particular subcortical cell type which has increased activity during waking and is involved in activating the cerebral cortex and generating gamma oscillations, enabling active cortical processing, and indicates that this presumptively inhibitory BF PV input controls cortical GBO, likely by synchronizing the activity of cortical PV interneurons.

TL;DR: It is reported that ATP levels show a surge in the initial hours of spontaneous sleep in wake-active but not in sleep-active brain regions of rat and the levels of phosphorylated AMP-activated protein kinase (P-AMPK), well known for its role in cellular energy sensing and regulation, and ATP show reciprocal changes.

TL;DR: FMRI consistently detected a well-localized activation focus at the primary somatosensory cortex in ISO-anesthetized rats, allowing repeated noninvasive survival experiments and suggesting that different anesthetics profoundly affect FP and CBF responses in different ways, which requires optimizing stimulation parameters for each anesthetic.

TL;DR: Under the authors' conditions, increased CBVt during neural activation originates mainly from arterial rather than venous blood volume changes, and therefore a critical implication is that venousBlood volume changes may be negligible in BOLD fMRI.
