Frontal Migraine Surgery: Indications and Results

Received: 18 July 2024;  Published: 27 November 2024;  doi: 10.21926/obm.neurobiol.2404258

Abstract

Recent studies have identified that certain types of migraines, including frontal migraines, may be attributed to the irritation of specific extracranial nerves. This systematic review addresses the following questions: Which surgical techniques are most effective for chronic frontal migraines? How do combined surgical approaches compare to isolated procedures regarding efficacy and complication rates? Our objective is to comprehensively analyze surgical options for frontal migraines, including their success rates [...]

Evaluating the Efficacy of Action Observation Training in Improving Upper Limb Functionality in Children with Cerebral Palsy: A Scope Review

Received: 02 June 2024;  Published: 22 November 2024;  doi: 10.21926/obm.neurobiol.2404257

Abstract

This review evaluates the efficacy of Action Observation Training (AOT) in improving upper limb functionality in children with cerebral palsy (CP). Five studies were selected based on strict inclusion criteria, focusing on clinical interventions that assessed AOT's effects on upper limb motor skills in pediatric CP populations. Across these studies, significant improvements were observed in motor skills such as reach, grasp, and spontaneous use of the affected limb, underscoring AOT's potential functional benefits. [...]

Genetic Basis of Emotional Regulation: Integrative Analysis of Behavioral and Neurobiological Data

Received: 08 July 2024;  Published: 22 November 2024;  doi: 10.21926/obm.neurobiol.2404256

Abstract

Emotional regulation (ER) is the process by which people change their physiology, expressions, and emotional experiences to operate in their daily lives. Deficits in emotion control may be connected to physical and mental health consequences. This review aims to identify genetic variants, understand neurobiological mechanisms, and explore behavioral phenotypes associated with ER. In our study, we included English studies from online databases such as Web of Science, Cochrane Library, Google Scholar, PubMed, and Sco [...]

Effective Physiotherapy for Post-Concussion Recovery and Return to Sports: Narrative Review

Received: 30 August 2024;  Published: 20 November 2024;  doi: 10.21926/obm.neurobiol.2404255

Abstract

Traumatic brain injury (TBI) caused by direct or indirect forces is a prevalent issue in contact sports, leading to symptoms such as headaches, dizziness, nausea, and neck pain. These symptoms can have long-term consequences, including neurodegenerative diseases and mood disorders. This review fills an essential gap in the literature, as current studies on physiotherapy for traumatic brain injury (TBI) in sports are limited in scope, particularly in evaluating multimodal and personalized interventions.

Gut Microbiota and Neuroinflammation: An Interconnected Nexus of Health and Neurodegenerative Disease

Received: 08 June 2024;  Published: 20 November 2024;  doi: 10.21926/obm.neurobiol.2404254

Abstract

The gut microbiota, a complex ecosystem of billions of microorganisms in the human digestive tract, plays a crucial role in maintaining health. Recent studies have highlighted a bidirectional communication pathway called the gut-brain axis between the gut and the brain. This communication is significantly influenced by gut microbiota and its interactions with the immune system, which can affect brain function and contribute to inflammation. This study aims to provide a comprehensive overview of the relationship bet [...]

Relationship of Retroelements with Antiviral Proteins and Epigenetic Factors in Alzheimer's Disease

Received: 10 August 2023;  Published: 31 October 2024;  doi: 10.21926/obm.neurobiol.2404252

Abstract

Genetic factors such as allelic variants of the PSEN1, PSEN2, APP, and APOE genes play an important role in Alzheimer's disease development. Still, they cannot explain all cases of the disease and cannot form the basis for effective treatment methods for the pathology. Alzheimer's disease is the most common neurodegenerative disease, so identifying new mechanisms of pathogenesis may reveal new ways of treating it. Since Alzheimer's disease is associated with aging, the hypothesis is proposed that an important trigg [...]
