Socially inappropriate behavior accompanies and modulates delinquency across the lifespan. In contrast to young people, the emergence of such traits among older individuals could indicate incipient neurodegenerative disease. [...]

Assessing skeletal maturity through bone age (BA) evaluation is crucial for monitoring children's growth and guiding treatments, such as hormonal therapy and orthopedic interventions. In recent years, artificial intelligence (AI) methods have been developed to automate BA assessment. [...]

Spinocerebellar ataxias (SCAs) are a group of genetically heterogeneous neurodegenerative diseases causing progressive deterioration and reduced quality of life. Therapeutic advances have been limited by a lack of sensitive anatomic, functional, or diffusion imaging-based biomarkers. [...]

Phospholipid-phosphatase-related protein 3 (PLPPR3) belongs to a family of transmembrane proteins highly expressed in the nervous system where it regulates critical axonal growth processes during guidance, filopodia formation, and branching. However, little is known regarding its role in synapses and the signaling events regulating PLPPR3 function. [...]

The aim of this study was to determine whether ChatGPT-4 can correctly suggest MRI protocols and additional MRI sequences based on real-world Radiology Request Forms (RRFs) as well as to investigate the ability of ChatGPT-4 to suggest time saving protocols.Retrospectively, 1,001 RRFs of our Department of Neuroradiology (in-house dataset), 200 RRFs of an independent Department of General Radiology (independent dataset) and 300 RRFs from an external, foreign Department of Neuroradiology (external dataset) were included. Patients' age, sex, and clinical information were extracted from the RRFs and used to prompt ChatGPT- 4 to choose an adequate MRI protocol from predefined institutional lists. [...]

Natural history data show that respiratory function is impaired in SMA patients. Observational studies have shown stabilization of respiratory function in adult SMA patients treated with nusinersen. [...]

Although access to a large number of Ottoman documents has become easier today, the Arabic-Persian-based Ottoman script remains a barrier for interested users in utilizing these documents. To address this challenge, there is a need for automatic transcription systems. [...]

Cognitive decline is part of the normal aging process, but also a major risk factor for dementia. Cognitive training interventions aim to attenuate cognitive decline, but training gains need to be transferable to untrained cognitive abilities to influence everyday function. [...]

Harmonized neuropsychological assessment for neurocognitive disorders (NCDs) is an urgent priority in clinics. Neuropsychology assessments in NCDs seldom include tests exploring social cognitive skills. [...]

Anti-N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor (NMDA-R) encephalitis is a neuropsychiatric disorder with additional psychiatric features caused by NMDA-R immunoglobulin G (IgG) antibodies in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). This report presents the follow-up of a patient in whom we assumed mild NMDA-R encephalitis in the first psychotic episode.A patient with a prior episode of an acute polymorphic psychotic syndrome relapsed five and a half years later following a severe COVID-19 infection.
