npj Digital Medicine - Predicting Alzheimer progression using EEG-based digital twins

Author summary Deep brain stimulation (DBS) is an effective treatment for alleviating symptoms of Parkinson’s disease (PD), but its underlying mechanism is unclear. Motor symptoms of PD are linked to ...

Current tactile sensing solutions face challenges in excessive wiring, high energy demands of AI computing, and limitations in scalability and parallel processing. Here, the authors present a neuromor...

Amato et al. evaluate whether brain digital twins can be utilized to derive robust dementia biomarkers. Biomarkers derived from digital twin outperform standard MEG and EEG metrics in diagnosing patho...

npj Parkinson's Disease - Transformer-based long-term predictor of subthalamic beta activity in Parkinson’s disease

Background The diagnosis of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) in its preclinical stages, such as subjective cognitive decline (SCD), is crucial for a timely management of the condition. However, current early ...

Young people will be exposed to a number of heatwaves that no one would have experienced in pre-industrial times.

Cognitive decline is a condition affecting almost one sixth of the elder population and is widely regarded as one of the first manifestations of Alzheimer’s disease. Despite the extensive body of know...

The Palestinian co-director of Oscar-winning film “No Other Land” Hamdan Ballal was beaten up by Israeli settlers in the occupied West Bank and taken away by Israeli soldiers, his colleagues and eyewi...

Background Elevated low-frequency activity (4–12 Hz) within the globus pallidus internus (GPi) has been consistently associated with dystonia. However, the impacts of the genetic etiology of dystoni...

Objective Genetic dystonia is a complex movement disorder with diverse clinical manifestations resulting from pathogenic mutations in associated genes. A recent paradigm shift emphasizes the functio...
