Pain Prevalence, Intensity, And Association With Neuropsychiatric Symptoms Of Dementia In Immigrant And Non-Immigrant Aged Care Residents In Australia, Pelden Chejor, Mustafa Atee, Patricia Cain, Daniel Whiting, Thomas Morris, Davina Porock

Research outputs 2022 to 2026

Pain recognition for culturally diverse people is complex as pain experience is subjective and influenced by cultural background. We compared the prevalence, intensity, and association of pain with neuropsychiatric symptoms (NPS) between immigrants and non-immigrants living with dementia in residential aged care homes (RACHs) who were referred to two Dementia Support Australia programs. Immigrant status was defined by the documented country of birth. Pain and NPS were assessed using PainChek® and the Neuropsychiatric Inventory, respectively. Subgroup analyses were also completed for English-speaking and non-English-speaking immigrants. A total of 17,637 referrals [immigrants, n = 6340; non-immigrants, n = 11,297] from 2792 …

Persistent Inward Currents In Tibialis Anterior Motoneurons Can Be Reliably Estimated Within The Same Session, Thomas Lapole, Ricardo N.O. Mesquita, Stéphane Baudry, Robin Souron, Eleanor K. O'Brien, Callum G. Brownstein, Vianney Rozand

Research outputs 2022 to 2026

The response of spinal motoneurons to synaptic input greatly depends on the activation of persistent inward currents (PICs), the contribution of which can be estimated through the paired motor unit technique. Yet, the intra-session test–retest reliability of this measurement remains to be fully established. Twenty males performed isometric triangular dorsiflexion contractions to 20 and 50 % of maximal torque at baseline and after a 15-min resting period. High-density electromyographic signals (HD-EMG) of the tibialis anterior were recorded with a 64-electrode matrix. HD-EMG signals were decomposed, and motor units tracked across time points to estimate the contribution of PICs to motoneuron …

Partial Purification Of Alzheimer’S Amyloid-𝛽 Specific Antibody Using Ammonium Sulfate, Noor Yousaf

Undergraduate Research Symposium

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the most common neurodegenerative disease. The trigger for AD is the accumulation of amyloid-beta protein (Aβ) as senile plaques in the brain. Prior to forming the fiber-like structures found in the plaques, Aβ undergoes an oligomerization process that produces intermediate structures called protofibrils. Substantial data from the Nichols laboratory demonstrated that soluble Aβ protofibrils were highly inflammatory compared to other forms of Aβ. Based on these findings, a serum polyclonal antibody, named Antibody St. Louis or AbSL, was developed to target Aβ protofibrils. A significant challenge with serum antibodies is the presence of many other biological …

Cortisol And Alpha-Synuclein Stability In Saliva Under Varying Storage And Handling Conditions, Mo Zheng, Sujata Srikanth, Jeremiah Carpenter, Delphine Dean

Journal of the South Carolina Academy of Science

Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder characterized by motor impairments and non-motor symptoms, significantly impacting patients' quality of life. Currently, cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) is the primary biofluid used for PD biomarker studies, notably α-synuclein, despite the invasive nature of lumbar puncture procedures. Recent work has shown that some of these PD biomarkers have been measured in saliva. As an alternative to CSF, saliva can be non-invasively self-collected by patients repeatedly over time to monitor biomarker levels. However, the stability of these biomarkers in saliva needs to be evaluated before saliva can be considered for patient self-collection studies. Therefore, …

Investigating Neuropsychiatric Symptoms In Asian Subgroups With Dementia Using The National Alzheimer's Coordinating Center (Nacc) Database, Maria Sophia Zaraspe Malbas, Luis A. Peña Marquez, Ramya Kunta, Astrid-Ines Foamkom, Ney Alliey-Rodriguez

Research Colloquium

Background: The incidence of neuropsychiatric symptoms (NPS), such as agitation, depression, anxiety, irritability, and sleeping disturbances, is common among patients with dementia. These symptoms are commonly evaluated with the Neuropsychiatric Inventory Questionnaire (NPI-Q), a useful tool for studying changes in behavior associated with neurodegenerative disorders for the past couple of decades. Another database utilizing the NPI-Q to assess NPS is the National Alzheimer’s Coordinating Center (NACC) Database. This uniform data set aims to store participant information, including neuropsychological tests, demographic information, and medical health history, collected from Alzheimer’s Disease Centers across the United States. To date, no studies using the …

Pre-Hospital Stroke Time Intervals In The Rio Grande Valley, Kelsey Baker, Elio E. Garcia Sosa

Research Colloquium

Background and Introduction: Stroke continues to be a significant cause of mortality in the United States. Despite advancements in acute stroke treatments such as thrombolytic therapy and endovascular procedures, many patients remain unable to benefit from these interventions due to delays in receiving treatment. Healthcare professionals have made substantial efforts to improve 'door to needle' times, the interval between a patient's arrival at the hospital and the administration of thrombolytic therapy, yielding promising outcomes. However, a critical gap persists: the time interval from the onset of stroke symptoms to when patients actually present at a healthcare facility. This study aims …

Exploring The Use Of Bimodal Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation To Enhance Movement In Individuals With Patellofemoral Pain—A Sham-Controlled Double Blinded Pilot Study, Kai-Yu Ho, Connan Wallace, Jeno Aquino, Bryce Broadwell, Makenzie Whimple, Jing Nong Liang

Physical Therapy Faculty Publications

Introduction: In individuals with patellofemoral pain (PFP), addressing increased knee valgus during weight-bearing activities typically involves strengthening weak hip muscles. However, recent literature highlights the role of altered descending central control in abnormal movements associated with PFP. While transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) has demonstrated the capacity to enhance neuroplasticity, its application targeting the corticomotor function of gluteal muscles in PFP remains unexplored. This study aimed to investigate the effects of combining bimodal tDCS with exercise on frontal plane kinematics in individuals with PFP. The hypothesis was that bimodal tDCS, specifically targeting the corticomotor function of the gluteal muscles, would …

Slow Ramping Emerges From Spontaneous Fluctuations In Spiking Neural Networks, Jake Gavenas, Ueli Rutishauer, Aaron Schurger, Uri Maoz

Psychology Faculty Articles and Research

The capacity to initiate actions endogenously is critical for goal-directed behavior. Spontaneous voluntary actions are typically preceded by slow-ramping activity in medial frontal cortex that begins around two seconds before movement, which may reflect spontaneous fluctuations that influence action timing. However, the mechanisms by which these slow ramping signals emerge from single-neuron and network dynamics remain poorly understood. Here, we developed a spiking neural-network model that produces spontaneous slow ramping activity in single neurons and population activity with onsets ~2 s before threshold crossings. A key prediction of our model is that neurons that ramp together have correlated firing patterns …

Multiple Guidance Mechanisms Control Axon Growth To Generate Precise T-Shaped Bifurcation During Dorsal Funiculus Development In The Spinal Cord, Bridget M. Curran, Kelsey R. Nickerson, Andrea R. Yung, Lisa V. Goodrich, Alexander Jaworski, Marc Tessier-Lavigne, Le Ma

Farber Institute for Neuroscience Faculty Papers

The dorsal funiculus in the spinal cord relays somatosensory information to the brain. It is made of T-shaped bifurcation of dorsal root ganglion (DRG) sensory axons. Our previous study has shown that Slit signaling is required for proper guidance during bifurcation, but loss of Slit does not affect all DRG axons. Here, we examined the role of the extracellular molecule Netrin-1 (Ntn1). Using wholemount staining with tissue clearing, we showed that mice lacking Ntn1 had axons escaping from the dorsal funiculus at the time of bifurcation. Genetic labeling confirmed that these misprojecting axons come from DRG neurons. Single axon analysis …

Neural Mechanisms Of Estrogen And Inflammation In Female Stress Susceptibility, Samantha Jane Bouknight

Theses and Dissertations

Posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and major depressive disorder (MDD) are highly debilitating psychiatric disorders that notably share stress as an etiological factor. Stress is a common occurrence experienced daily by virtually everyone and, while most people are resilient, a substantial portion of the population exhibit risk factors that yield them susceptible to developing stress-related psychiatric disorders. One prominent factor that has long been known to increase this risk is the female biological sex with women presenting at least twice as often with disorders like PTSD and MDD compared to men. Interestingly, this bias exists distinctly during the reproductive years and …

Electronic Thesis and Dissertation Repository

Chronic axial pain (CAP) is a debilitating condition impacting millions globally, with traditional treatments providing only short-term relief. This pilot study explored the primary outcomes of feasibility, tolerability, and safety, as well as the secondary outcomes of pain intensity, disability, quality of life, and patients’ perceived response to the combined intervention of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) and corticosteroid joint injections (CJI) as a novel approach to address CAP. Sixteen participants from St. Joseph’s Healthcare Pain Clinic were randomized (1:1) to receive 11 active or sham rTMS sessions over 12 weeks, with follow-up until week 24 or their next CJI, …

Differential Effects Of Cannabis Vapour Constituents On Brain Connectivity: Exploring The Long-Term Effects Of Adolescent Exposure, Pedro Marinho

Electronic Thesis and Dissertation Repository

Cannabis use is common in adolescence and there is evidence for sex differences regarding the long-term effect of cannabis use. We aimed to investigate how exposure to 3 types of cannabis vapour in adolescent rats impacts brain development using magnetic resonance imaging. Male and female Sprague Dawley rats were divided into four groups and exposed to high-CBD, high-THC, balanced CBD + THC, or air at post-natal days 28-42 using a vaporizer. In adulthood, rats underwent diffusion and functional MRI. Results indicated sex-dependent differences in the long-term effects of cannabis exposure in the adult brain. In male rats, we found a …

The Oncolytic Adenovirus Delta-24-Rgd In Combination With Onc201 Induces A Potent Antitumor Response In Pediatric High-Grade And Diffuse Midline Glioma Models, Daniel De La Nava, Iker Ausejo-Mauleon, Virginia Laspidea, Marisol Gonzalez-Huarriz, Andrea Lacalle, Noelia Casares, Marta Zalacain, Lucía Marrodan, Marc García-Moure, Maria C Ochoa, Antonio Carlos Tallon-Cobos, Reyes Hernandez-Osuna, Javier Marco-Sanz, Laasya Dhandapani, Irati Hervás-Corpión, Oren J Becher, Javad Nazarian, Sabine Mueller, Timothy N Phoenix, Jasper Van Der Lugt, Mikel Hernaez, Elizabeth Guruceaga, Carl Koschmann, Sriram Venneti, Joshua E Allen, Matthew D Dun, Juan Fueyo, Candelaria Gomez-Manzano, Jaime Gallego Perez-Larraya, Ana Patiño-García, Sara Labiano, Marta M Alonso

Student and Faculty Publications

BACKGROUND: Pediatric high-grade gliomas (pHGGs), including diffuse midline gliomas (DMGs), are aggressive pediatric tumors with one of the poorest prognoses. Delta-24-RGD and ONC201 have shown promising efficacy as single agents for these tumors. However, the combination of both agents has not been evaluated.

METHODS: The production of functional viruses was assessed by immunoblotting and replication assays. The antitumor effect was evaluated in a panel of human and murine pHGG and DMG cell lines. RNAseq, the seahorse stress test, mitochondrial DNA content, and γH2A.X immunofluorescence were used to perform mechanistic studies. Mouse models of both diseases were used to assess the …

In Vivo Examination Of Peripheral Drivers Of Alzheimer’S Disease, Celso Catumbela

Dissertations & Theses (Open Access)

Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is the leading cause of dementia worldwide, and predominantly affects elderly populations. This disease is well known for its effects on the brain, but a wealth of clinical reports show that dementia can also modify, or be modified by, various peripheral and systemic processes. Yet, the pathological contribution of peripheral comorbidities to AD remains to be fully understood. In an attempt to address some knowledge gaps, we characterized the cerebral and peripheral pathology in mice with history of either liver injury or sepsis. In the former subjects, we found that even in the absence of genetic risk …

Apolipoprotein Ε4 Is Associated With Increased Risk Of Fall- And Fracture-Related Hospitalization: The Perth Longitudinal Study Of Ageing Women, Jedd Pratt, Jack Dalla Via, Craig Sale, Abadi K. Gebre, Blossom C.M. Stephan, Simon Laws, Kun Zhu, Wai H. Lim, Richard L. Prince, Joshua R. Lewis, Marc Sim

Research outputs 2022 to 2026

Apolipoprotein ε4 (APOE ε4) may be a genetic risk factor for reduced bone mineral density (BMD) and muscle function, which could have implications for fall and fracture risk. We examined the association between APOE ε4 status and long-term fall- and fracture-related hospitalization risk in older women. A total of 1 276 community-dwelling women from the Perth Longitudinal Study of Aging Women (mean age ± SD = 75.2 ± 2.7 years) were included. At baseline, women underwent APOE genotyping and detailed phenotyping for covariates including prevalent falls and fractures, as well as health and lifestyle factors. The association between APOE ε4 …

Neural Interactions In Bottom-Up Communication, Prashant Chama Raju

Graduate Theses and Dissertations

The visual system’s remarkable ability to process vast amounts of sensory information rapidly and accurately is fundamental to cognitive neuroscience. This study investigates a key aspect of this capability: the compartmentalization of information into feature-specific subspaces during bottom-up communication. My primary question was: does Canonical Correlation Analysis (CCA) reveal a subspace that encodes color and direction of moving dot stimuli? I found that the first canonical component (CC1) does an excellent job decoding the stimuli, despite being one-dimensional while the stimuli were drawn from a two-dimensional space (red-green and up-down plane). I demonstrate that motion features are processed within distinct …

Exploring The Effect Of Combining Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation With Functional Electrical Stimulation Cycling On Lower Extremity Function Following Incomplete Spinal Cord Injury, Fereshteh Ghahremani

Electronic Thesis and Dissertation Repository

Spinal cord injury (SCI) is a neurological condition that disrupts lower extremity function, limiting mobility and independence. This dissertation explores the feasibility, acceptability, and safety of combining repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) with functional electrical stimulation (FES) cycling to improve lower extremity function following motor incomplete SCI (iSCI). This study is a case series pilot study in which participants with iSCI underwent a combined protocol of rTMS and FES cycling for six weeks. The results demonstrate the preliminary feasibility, participant acceptability, and safety of combining rTMS and FES cycling. While results varied between participants, one participant showed improvements in walking …

Self-Harm In Female Youth With Undiagnosed Adhd: Implementing American Academy Of Pediatrics Screening Guidelines, Roselie M. Woodard

Dissertations

Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a common neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by inattention, hyperactivity, and impulsivity. If undiagnosed or untreated, ADHD can lead to severe psychosocial issues such as academic failure, substance abuse, unplanned pregnancy, and incarceration. The financial burden in the U.S. from diagnostic errors creates an immense, rising fiscal impact. Early diagnosis and management are crucial to prevent these complications.

Females with ADHD, particularly those with the inattentive subtype, often face diagnostic challenges due to symptom masking and over-compensation. This results in poorer cognitive functioning and self-esteem compared to males with ADHD. ADHD is linked to autonomic nervous …

Resting State Electrophysiological Profiles And Their Relationship With Cognitive Performance In Cognitively Unimpaired Older Adults: A Systematic Review, Brenda Chino, David López-Sanz, Sandra Doval, Lucía Torres-Simón, Jaisalmer De Frutos Lucas, Lydia Giménez-Llort, Jonathan Zegarra-Valdivia, Fernando Maestú

Research outputs 2022 to 2026

Background: Aging is a complex and natural process. The physiological decline related to aging is accompanied by a slowdown in cognitive processes, which begins shortly after individuals reach maturity. These changes have been sometimes interpreted as a compensatory sign and others as a fingerprint of deterioration. Objective: In this context, our aim is to uncover the mechanisms that underlie and support normal cognitive functioning in the brain during the later stages of life. Methods: With this purpose, a systematic literature search was conducted using PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science databases, which identified 781 potential articles. After applying inclusion and …

Bayesian Varying-Effects Vector Autoregressive Models For Inference Of Brain Connectivity Networks And Covariate Effects In Pediatric Traumatic Brain Injury, Yangfan Ren, Nathan Osborne, Christine B Peterson, Dana M Demaster, Linda Ewing-Cobbs, Marina Vannucci

Student and Faculty Publications

In this article, we develop an analytical approach for estimating brain connectivity networks that accounts for subject heterogeneity. More specifically, we consider a novel extension of a multi-subject Bayesian vector autoregressive model that estimates group-specific directed brain connectivity networks and accounts for the effects of covariates on the network edges. We adopt a flexible approach, allowing for (possibly) nonlinear effects of the covariates on edge strength via a novel Bayesian nonparametric prior that employs a weighted mixture of Gaussian processes. For posterior inference, we achieve computational scalability by implementing a variational Bayes scheme. Our approach enables simultaneous estimation of group-specific …

Persistent Interruption In Parvalbuminpositive Inhibitory Interneurons: Biophysical And Mathematical Mechanisms, Carol M. Upchurch, Christopher J. Knowlton, Simon Chamberland, Carmen C. Canavier

School of Graduate Studies Faculty Publications

Persistent activity in excitatory pyramidal cells (PYRs) is a putative mechanism for maintaining memory traces during working memory. We have recently demonstrated persistent interruption of firing in fastspiking parvalbumin-expressing interneurons (PV-INs), a phenomenon that could serve as a substrate for persistent activity in PYRs through disinhibition lasting hundreds of milliseconds. Here, we find that hippocampal CA1 PV-INs exhibit type 2 excitability, like striatal and neocortical PV-INs. Modeling and mathematical analysis showed that the slowly inactivating potassium current KV1 contributes to type 2 excitability, enables the multiple firing regimes observed experimentally in PV-INs, and provides a mechanism for robust persistent interruption …

Investigating Synergistic Effects Of Mild Traumatic Brain Injury And Reduced Cholinergic Tone On Attentional Deficits And Alzheimer's-Like Pathology In Haβ And Htau Mice, Elizabeth M. Teasell

Electronic Thesis and Dissertation Repository

Mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) increases the risk of Alzheimer’s disease. The early cholinergic decline in Alzheimer’s disease and cholinergic damage observed after TBI suggest a distinct role of this neural system in vulnerability to Alzheimer’s disease following TBI. This thesis evaluated the role of repetitive mTBI and cholinergic dysfunction in the development of cognitive deficits, specifically attentional deficits, and Alzheimer’s-related pathology in mice expressing humanized amyloid-beta and tau and a vesicular acetylcholine transporter knockdown to induce a mild cholinergic deficit. Using the rodent continuous performance test, it was shown that repetitive mTBI in the presence of an already vulnerable …

Cholesterol-Dependent Lxr Transcription Factor Activity Represses Pronociceptive Effects Of Estrogen In Sensory Neurons And Pain Induced By Myelin Basic Protein Fragments, Swathi K Hullugundi, Jennifer Dolkas, Andrei V Chernov, Tony L Yaksh, Kelly A Eddinger, Mila Angert, Glaucilene Ferreira Catroli, Alex Y Strongin, Patrick M Dougherty, Yan Li, Oswal Quehenberger, Aaron Armando, Veronica I Shubayev

Student and Faculty Publications

BACKGROUND: A bioactive myelin basic protein (MBP) fragment, comprising MBP

METHODS: In male and female normal and post-CCI rat sciatic nerves, we assessed: (i) cholesterol precursor and metabolite levels by lipidomics; (ii) MBP

RESULTS: CCI regulated LXRα ligand and receptor levels in nerves of both sexes, with cholesterol precursors, desmosterol and 7-DHC, and oxysterol elevated in females relative to males. MBP

CONCLUSION: The injury-released bioactive MBP fragments induce pronociceptive changes by selective inactivation of nuclear transcription factors, including LXRα. By Ncoa1 sequestration, bioactive MBP fragments render LXRα function to counteract pronociceptive activity of estrogen/ESR1 in sensory neurons. This effect of …

In Search Of The Locus Coeruleus: Guidelines For Identifying Anatomical Boundaries And Electrophysiological Properties Of The Blue Spot In Mice, Fish, Finches, And Beyond, Amelien Vreven, Gary Aston-Jones, Anthony E Pickering, Gina R Poe, Barry Waterhouse, Nelson K Totah

Rowan-Virtua School of Osteopathic Medicine Departmental Research

Our understanding of human brain function can be greatly aided by studying analogous brain structures in other organisms. One brain structure with neurochemical and anatomical homology throughout vertebrate species is the locus coeruleus (LC), a small collection of norepinephrine (NE)-containing neurons in the brainstem that project throughout the central nervous system. The LC is involved in nearly every aspect of brain function, including arousal and learning, which has been extensively examined in rats and nonhuman primates using single-unit recordings. Recent work has expanded into putative LC single-unit electrophysiological recordings in a nonmodel species, the zebra finch. Given the importance of …

Resting State Electroencephalographic Brain Activity In Neonates Can Predict Age And Is Indicative Of Neurodevelopmental Outcome, Amir Ansari, Kirubin Pillay, Emad Arasteh, Anneleen Dereymaeker, Gabriela Schmidt Mellado, Katrien Jansen, Anderson M. Winkler, Gunnar Naulaers, Aomesh Bhatt, Sabine Van Huffel

School of Medicine Publications and Presentations

Objective: Electroencephalography (EEG) can be used to estimate neonates' biological brain age. Discrepancies between postmenstrual age and brain age, termed the brain age gap, can potentially quantify maturational deviation. Existing brain age EEG models are not well suited to clinical cot-side use for estimating neonates' brain age gap due to their dependency on relatively large data and pre-processing requirements.

Methods: We trained a deep learning model on resting state EEG data from preterm neonates with normal neurodevelopmental Bayley Scale of Infant and Toddler Development (BSID) outcomes, using substantially reduced data requirements. We subsequently tested this model in two independent datasets …

The Relationship Between Diet, Depression, And Alzheimer's Disease: A Narrative Review, Hilal Salim Said Al Shamsi, Stephanie R. Rainey-Smith, Samantha L. Gardener, Hamid R. Sohrabi, Rodrigo Canovas, Ralph N. Martins, Warnakulasuriya Mary Ann Dipika Binosha Fernando

Research outputs 2022 to 2026

Purpose of Review: This narrative review evaluates the role of diet in the relationship between depression and Alzheimer's disease (AD). Recent Findings: AD and depression are often comorbid, and depression appears to independently increase the future risk of AD. Evidence suggests diet influences the risk of both conditions directly and indirectly. Diet impacts neurochemical and biological processes that may affect the development and progression of depression and cognitive dysfunction. The dietary components offering the greatest protection against depression and AD are yet to be determined. Current evidence highlights the importance of polyphenolic compounds, folate, B vitamins, and polyunsaturated fatty acids, …

Deficits in memory performance have been linked to a wide range of neurological and neuropsychiatric conditions. While many studies have assessed the memory impacts of individual conditions, this study considers a broader perspective by evaluating how memory recall is differentially associated with nine common neuropsychiatric conditions using data drawn from 55 international studies, aggregating 15,883 unique participants aged 15–90. The effects of dementia, mild cognitive impairment, Parkinson’s disease, traumatic brain injury, stroke, depression, attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), schizophrenia, and bipolar disorder on immediate, short-, and long-delay verbal learning and memory (VLM) scores were estimated relative to matched healthy individuals. Random forest …
