TL;DR: In this paper , the authors investigated the relationship between demographics, social determinants of health (SDOH) and cognitive outcomes 6-months after hospitalization for COVID-19 patients.

TL;DR: In this paper , a multi-class machine learning strategy was implemented to classify 300 patients based on their radiological profile into diagnostic labels along the UMN-LMN spectrum, and a comprehensive panel of cortical thickness measures, subcortical grey matter variables, and white matter integrity metrics were evaluated in a multilayer perceptron (MLP) model.

TL;DR: In this paper , the type of neurological and cognitive impairment in COVID-19 cases of different severity was investigated, and it was found that ICU patients performed significantly worse in all the neuropsychological tests and showed a worse age and education-corrected cognitive impairment: Cognitive Impairment Index (CII) was higher in ICU than in non-ICU patients.

TL;DR: Truong et al. as discussed by the authors reviewed the peripheral electrical stimulation (PES) literature and summarized effectiveness, safety, clinical translatability, and hypothesized tremor-reduction mechanisms of various PES approaches.

TL;DR: In this article , the effects of adherence to MeDi on the gut microbiota in relation to Alzheimer's disease and Parkinson's disease (PD) were assessed. And the Mediterranean diet may be neuroprotective by modulating gut microbiota.

TL;DR: In this paper , a case of acute transverse myelitis (ATM) associated with COVID-19 vaccination was reported, which was later confirmed to be a result of the CoV-19 vaccine.

TL;DR: In this paper , the authors report four patients with inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy after vaccination in whom a relapsing or progressive course indicated the development of chronic inflammatory demymyelinizing polynesia (CIDP).

TL;DR: Truong et al. as discussed by the authors proposed four main ET pathophysiologies: environmental exposures to β-carboline alkaloids and the consequent olivocerebellar hyper-excitation.

TL;DR: A review of clinical trials examining the effect of vagal nerve stimulation (VNS) in treatment-resistant depression (TRD), the applicable neuroanatomy of the vagus nerve, and the proposed mechanism of action (MOA) of VNS in TRD is provided in this paper .

TL;DR: Truong et al. as discussed by the authors reviewed neurochemical, neurophysiological, and neuroimaging data as the basis of the presence of a dysfunctional network underlying tremor in Parkinson's disease.

TL;DR: In this paper , a population of patients with prior COVID-19 infection who showed signs and symptoms consistent with neurological long-COVID was evaluated, and an unsupervised clustering analysis was performed to investigate whether there was evidence of different subtypes of neurological long COVID19.

TL;DR: In this article , a multimodal, prospective neuroimaging study was conducted to evaluate thalamic degeneration at a nuclear, vertex, and morphometric level using a uniform imaging protocol and a multi-modal analysis approach.

TL;DR: In this paper , a systematic review was conducted according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guideline to find studies that reported acute ischemic stroke (AIS) cases after COVID-19 vaccination.

TL;DR: In this article , the authors describe a cohort of patients who developed Guillain-Barré-Syndrome (GBS) after vaccination with different types of COVID-19 vaccines.

TL;DR: Truong et al. as discussed by the authors discuss the most common causes of drug-induced tremor, including polypharmacy, male gender, older age, high doses and immediate-release preparations or reaching toxic levels of the offending drugs.

TL;DR: In this article , the authors conducted a systematic review, searching EMBASE and MEDLINE databases for relevant articles on PDD frequency published before May 2019, and calculated a global estimation of PDD was calculated.

TL;DR: In this article , atypical clinical and radiological manifestations of patients with transient global amnesia (TGA) and/or vanishing hippocampal punctate diffusion-weighted imaging lesions (HPDL) were analyzed.

TL;DR: In this paper , the authors explored the potential for physiologically informed neuromodulation in psychiatry, which includes an increasing amount of research into stimulation paradigms that are guided by patients' neurophysiology, to increase efficacy and responder rates.

TL;DR: In this article , the authors compared the specificity and sensitivity of a commercially available fixed cell-based assay (F-CBA) to radioimmunoprecipitation assay (RIPA) for anti-AChR detection in myasthenia gravis (MG).

TL;DR: Truong et al. as mentioned in this paper reviewed rare forms of tremor, also in view of the new tremor classification, as well as on tremor occurring in other neurological disorders to aid their recognition.

TL;DR: A qualitative review of ECT's effectiveness for treatment resistant depression (TRD), methods to optimize ECT parameters to improve remission rates and side effect profiles, and proposed neurobiological mechanisms are provided in this paper .

TL;DR: In this paper , the authors used diffusion tensor imaging (DTI), free water (FW) imaging, and neurite orientation dispersion and density imaging (NODDI) to discriminate between MS and NMOSD using tract-based spatial statistics (TBSS) and region-of-interest (ROI) analyses.

TL;DR: Jankovic et al. as discussed by the authors provided an up-to-date review of the current literature on parkinsonian symptoms, their pathogenesis, diagnostic methods, and available treatment options.

TL;DR: A brief review on the current progress of vaccines against nicotine, stimulants (cocaine and methamphetamine), opioids including fentanyl, novel psychoactive substances (synthetic cathinones and synthetic cannabis), and discusses prospects for vaccine technology in the treatment of substance use disorders is provided in this article .

TL;DR: In this article , surface-based vertex-wise multiple regression analyses were performed to investigate the cortical macrostructural (cortical thinning) and microstructural correlates of homocysteine levels in this sample.
