The white matter injury in relation to acute neurologic conditions, especially stroke, has remained obscure until recently.Current advances in the imaging technologies in the field of stroke have confirmed that white matter injury plays an important role in the prognosis of stroke and suggest that white matter protection is essential for functional
Implementation of Environmental Sanitation and Disinfection in Hospitals to Reduce the Spread of Covid19: A Literature Review
Introduction: SARS-CoV-2 is a new variant of virus that attacks the human respiratory tract which was declared by WHO as a Covid19 pandemic.Covid19 transmission through solid surfaces, air, and waste occurring in hospital areas require disinfection and sanitation monitoring to ensure that new clusters are not created and outpatients are not infecte
Natural Infection and Vertical Transmission of Zika Virus in Sylvatic Mosquitoes Aedes albopictus and Haemagogus leucocelaenus from Rio de Janeiro, Brazil
Zika Hair Dryer virus (ZIKV) was recently introduced into the Western Hemisphere, where it is suspected to be transmitted mainly by Aedes aegypti in urban environments.ZIKV represents a public health problem as it has been implicated in congenital microcephaly in South America since 2015.Reports of ZIKV transmission in forested areas of Africa rais
Percutaneous posterior lumbar interbody fusion using optical topographic navigation: Operative technique
Despite the availability of navigation systems in spine surgery for over two decades, uptake into routine clinical practice has been limited in large part due to disruption of workflow with associated increased operative time.Optical topographical navigation for spine surgery permits safe and accurate placement Fan Shop - NFL - Hats of pedicle scre
mGlu2 mechanism-based interventions to treat alcohol relapse
Recently we identified a deficiency in metabotropic glutamate receptor 2 (mGlu2) function in the corticoaccumbal pathway, as a common pathological mechanism underlying alcohol-seeking and relapse behavior.Based on this mechanism, we hypothesized that mGlu2/3 agonists and mGlu2 positive allosteric modulators (PAMs) may be effective in reducing relap
