Coordinated locomotion depends on rhythmic neural interactions, with the cerebellum contributing to movement timing and scaling. However, how cerebellar oscillatory dynamics influence human gait remains unclear, despite its relevance for motor learning and rehabilitation. We hypothesized two frequency-dependent effects: (i) gait-matched cerebellar transcranial alternating current stimulation (c-tACS) would produce stronger pha...

Recent studies have shown that a ketogenic diet containing medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs) has a synergistic effect with perampanel in modulating AMPA receptors. Both MCTs and perampanel have immunomodulatory properties. However, the use of the combination of MCTs and perampanel to treat status epilepticus caused by autoimmune encephalitis has never been investigated. After multiple antiseizure (benzodiazepines, levetiraceta...

Objective The role of ipsilateral descending motor pathways in voluntary movement of humans is still a matter of debate, with partly contradictory results. The aim of our study therefore was to examine the excitability of ipsilateral motor evoked potentials (iMEPs) regarding site and the specificity for unilateral and bilateral elbow flexion extension tasks. Methods MR-navigated transcranial magnetic stimulation mapping of the...

Higher cognitive processes and emotional regulation depend on densely interconnected telencephalic and limbic areas. Central structures of this cortico-limbic network are ventral hippocampus (vHC), medial prefrontal cortex (PFC), basolateral amygdala (BLA) and nucleus accumbens (NAC). Human and animal studies have revealed both anatomical and functional alterations in specific connections of this network in several psychiatric...

Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disorder, considered a disconnection syndrome with regional molecular pattern abnormalities quantifiable by the aid of PET imaging. Solutions for accurate quantification of network dysfunction are scarce. We evaluate the extent to which PET molecular markers reflect quantifiable network metrics derived through the graph theory framework and how partial volume effects (PVE)-correc...
