TLDR
In this article, the authors investigate how PM2.5 exposure affects the microstructure, metabolites or functions of the visual system and reveal that PM2 exposure triggered visual dysfunction, and altered microstructures, metabolite and function in the retina and visual brain areas.About:

TL;DR: In this article , a multivariable linear regression model was used to estimate the coefficients and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for the association between 3rd trimester PM2.5 exposure and age-corrected cognition scores (mean = 100, SD = 15).

The pollutome-connectome axis: a putative mechanism to explain pollution effects on neurodegeneration
Lorenzo Pini,Alessandro Salvalaggio,Alexandra M.V. Wennberg,Anastasia Dimakou,Michela Matteoli,Maurizio Corbetta +5 more
TL;DR: In this article , the authors focus on the link between pollution and brain network connectivity at the macro-scale level and explain the pollutome-connectome axis that might provide the functional substrate for pollution-induced processes leading to cognitive impairment and neurodegeneration.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ambient particulate matter exposure causes visual dysfunction and retinal neuronal degeneration.
TL;DR: In this article , the adverse effects of PM2.5 exposure on visual function and retinal neurons were investigated using a versatile aerosol concentration enrichment system, where mice were exposed to either control air or PM 2.5 polluted air.

The basis of anisotropic water diffusion in the nervous system – a technical review
TL;DR: The purpose of this review is to characterize the relationship of nuclear magnetic resonance measurements of water diffusion and its anisotropy (i.e. directional dependence) with the underlying microstructure of neural fibres.
Journal ArticleDOI
Regional homogeneity approach to fMRI data analysis
TL;DR: ReHo can consider as a complementary method to model-driven method, and it could help reveal the complexity of the human brain function, in which KCC was used to measure the similarity of the time series of a given voxels to those of its nearest neighbors in a voxel-wise way.

Automatic quantitation of localized in vivo 1H spectra with LCModel
TL;DR: The LCModel method analyzes an in vivo spectrum as a Linear Combination of Model in vitro spectra from individual metabolite solutions using complete model spectra, rather than individual resonances, in order to incorporate maximum prior information into the analysis.

TL;DR: Kirschvink et al. as discussed by the authors used magnetic analyses and electron microscopy to identify the abundant presence in the brain of magnetite nanoparticles that are consistent with high-temperature formation, suggesting, therefore, an external, not internal, source.

The mammalian superior colliculus: laminar structure and connections.
TL;DR: This review will concentrate on sensory and motor inputs to the superior colliculus, on its internal circuitry, and on its connections with other brainstem gaze centers, as well as its extensive outputs to those structures with which it is reciprocally connected.
