1. Brain tissue infected with the virus of Western equine encephalomyelitis shows specific differences in metabolism from brain tissue infected with the virus of poliomyelitis. 2. With added glucose concentration of 121 mg. per cent, oxygen utilization of poliomyelitic brain is significantly below normal and that of encephalitic brain is not. 3. With added glucose concentration of 217 mg. per c...

Tumor necrosis factor α antagonist therapies represent an increased risk of reactivation of tuberculosis. We report two cases of life-threatening disseminated tuberculosis in patients undergoing treatment with infliximab for Crohn's disease including one case of a patient with cerebral tuberculomas. We discuss the implication of tumor necrosis factor α in the genesis of tuberculosis infection a...

The authors wish to make the following correction to this paper (Cecotti, H.; Rivet, B. Subject Combination and Electrode Selection in Cooperative Brain-Computer Interface Based on Event Related Potentials. Brain Sci. 2014, 4, 335-355).

The brain-machine interface (BMI) or brain-computer interface is a new interface technology that uses neurophysiological signals from the brain to control external machines or computers. This technology is expected to support daily activities, especially for persons with disabilities. To expand the range of activities enabled by this type of interface, here, we added augmented reality (AR) to a...

The case of a 16-year-old boy is reported who underwent surgery for the excision of an Askin tumor and has subsequently undergone six excisions of local Askin tumor recurrences, with follow-up postoperative chemo- and radiotherapy over a 7-year period. The patient continues to survive. As far as can be determined, this patient appears to be the first reported case of long-term survival after re...

PURPOSE To examine the relationship of Tumor Necrosis Factor (TNF)-α to disinhibition and suicidal endorsement after traumatic brain injury (TBI). PARTICIPANTS Adults with moderate to severe TBI (acute serum levels: n=48, n=543 samples; acute CSF levels: n=37, n=389 samples; chronic serum levels: n=48, n=326 samples). MAIN MEASURES TNFα levels (CSF, Serum) from time of injury to 12 months p...

The occurrence of brain tumors together with aneurysms has been considered as an uncommon phenomenon. However, its incidence may be underestimated. This coexistence is a diagnostic challenge, but also a therapeutic one as no consensus has been reached. We report two cases of a 71 and 67 years old patient with a meningioma and aneurysm: one noticed and treated before with good outcome and the ot...

Our knowledge of tumor immunology has resulted in multiple approaches for the treatment of cancer. However, a gap between research of new tumors markers and development of immunotherapy has been established and very few markers exist that can be used for treatment. The challenge is now to discover new targets for active and passive immunotherapy. This review aims at describing recent advances i...
