Abstract

OBJECTIVE:Prediction of post-hemorrhagic hydrocephalus (PHH) outcome-i.e. whether it requires intervention or not-in premature neonates using cranial ultrasound (CUS) images is challenging. In this paper, we present a novel fully-automatic method to perform phenotyping of the brain lateral ventricles and predict PHH outcome from CUS. METHODS:Our method consists of two parts: ventricle quantification followed by prediction of PHH outcome. First, cranial bounding box and brain interhemispheric fissure are detected to determine the anatomical position of ventricles and correct the cranium rotation. Then, lateral ventricles are extracted using a new deep learning-based method by incorporating the convolutional neural network into a probabilistic atlas-based weighted loss function and an image-specific adaption. PHH outcome is predicted using a support vector machine classifier trained using ventricular morphological phenotypes and clinical information. RESULTS:Experiments demonstrated that our method achieves accurate ventricle segmentation results with an average Dice similarity coefficient of 0.86, as well as very good PHH outcome prediction with accuracy of 0.91. CONCLUSION:Automatic CUS-based ventricular phenotyping in premature newborns could objectively and accurately predict the progression to severe PHH. SIGNIFICANCE:Early prediction of severe PHH development in premature newborns could potentially advance criteria for diagnosis and offer an opportunity for early interventions to improve outcome.

摘要

目的: 预测出血性脑积水 (PHH) outcome-i.e。是否需要干预-在早产儿中使用头颅超声 (CUS) 图像具有挑战性。在本文中,我们提出了一种新的全自动方法来对脑侧脑室进行表型分析,并预测 CUS 的 PHH 结局。 方法: 我们的方法包括两部分: 心室定量,然后预测 PHH 结局。首先,检测颅骨包围盒和大脑半球间裂,以确定脑室的解剖位置并纠正颅骨旋转。然后,通过将卷积神经网络纳入基于概率图谱的加权损失函数和图像特异性适应,使用一种新的基于深度学习的方法提取侧脑室。使用使用心室形态表型和临床信息训练的支持向量机分类器预测 PHH 结局。 结果: 实验表明,我们的方法获得了准确的心室分割结果,平均 Dice 相似系数为 0.86,以及非常好的 PHH 结局预测,准确率为 0.91。 结论: 基于自动 CUS 的早产儿心室表型分析能客观、准确地预测进展为重度 PHH。 意义: 早期预测早产新生儿严重 PHH 发展可能会提高诊断标准,并为早期干预提供改善结局的机会。

METHODS::Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic neurodegenerative disorder with clinical symptoms of neuroinflammation and demyelination in the central nervous system. Recently, herbal medicines are clinically effective against MS as the current disease-modifying drugs have limited effectiveness. Hence, the present study evaluated the therapeutic potential of Ocimum basilicum essential oil (OB) in ethidium bromide (EB)-induced cognitive deficits in the male rats. Further, the effect of OB (50, 100 and 200 μL/kg) was evaluated on EB-induced neuroinflammation, astrogliosis and mitochondrial dysfunction in the pre-frontal cortex (PFC) of the animals. The EB was injected through bilateral intracerebroventricular route into hippocampus to induce MS-like manifestations in the rats. OB (100 and 200 μL/kg) and Ursolic acid (UA) significantly reduced the EB-induced cognitive deficits in Morris water maze and Y-maze test paradigms. OB (100 and 200 μL/kg) and UA significantly attenuated the EB-induced neuroinflammation in terms of increase in the levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines (TNF-alpha and IL-6) in the rat PFC. Further, OB (100 and 200 μL/kg) and UA significantly attenuated the EB-induced astrogliosis in terms of increase in the levels of GFAP (Glial fibrillary acidic protein) and Iba-1 (Ionized calcium binding adaptor molecule-1) in the rat PFC. In addition, OB (100 and 200 μL/kg) and UA significantly attenuated the EB-induced decrease in the mitochondrial function, integrity, respiratory control rate and ADP/O in the PFC of the rodents. Moreover, OB (100 and 200 μL/kg) and UA significantly reduced the EB-induced mitochondria-dependent apoptosis in the PFC of the rat. Hence, it can be presumed that OB could be a potential alternative drug candidate in the pharmacotherapy of MS.

METHODS::Sleep fragmentation is an increase in sleep-wake transitions without an overall decrease in total sleep time. Sleep fragmentation is well documented during acute and chronic hospitalization and can result in delirium and memory problems in children. Sleep fragmentation is also often noted in neurodevelopmental disorders. However, it is unclear how sleep fragmentation independent of disease affects brain development and function. We hypothesized that acute sleep fragmentation during the neonatal period in otherwise healthy animals would result in neuroinflammation and would be associated with abnormalities in cognitive development. The orbital shaker method was used to fragment sleep for 72 h in postnatal day 3 New Zealand white rabbit kits (fragmentation group). To control for maternal separation, the sham group was separated from the dam and maintained in the same conditions without undergoing sleep fragmentation. A naïve control group remained with the dam. Kits underwent behavioral testing with novel object recognition and spontaneous alternation T-maze tests at 2-3 weeks post-fragmentation and were sacrificed 3-50 days after fragmentation. Sleep fragmentation resulted in acute and chronic changes in microglial morphology in the hippocampus and cortex, and regional differences in mRNA expression of pro- and anti-inflammatory cytokines at 3, 7 and 50 days post-fragmentation. Impaired novel object recognition and a longer latency in T-maze task completion were noted in the fragmented kits. This was in spite of normalization of sleep architecture noted at 2 months of age in these kits. The results indicate that transient neonatal sleep fragmentation results in short-term and long-term immune alterations in the brain, along with diminished performance in cognitive tasks long-term.

METHODS:BACKGROUND:Deep brain stimulation (DBS) of the anterior nucleus of the thalamus (ANT) is a recently approved therapy for patients with drug-resistant epilepsy. To date, there is a poor understanding of the mechanism of action and lack of in vivo biomarkers. We propose a method for investigating the in vivo stimulation effects using blood-oxygen-level dependent (BOLD) MRI and present the brain activation pattern associated with ANT DBS. METHODS:Two patients undergoing ANT DBS for epilepsy underwent BOLD MRI using a block design after the DBS was programmed to alternate ON/OFF in 30 second blocks. The scanner was triggered utilizing surface electrophysiological recording to detect the DBS cycle. Nine total runs were obtained and were analyzed using a general linear model. RESULTS:Active ANT stimulation produced activation within several areas of the brain, including the thalamus, bilateral anterior cingulate and posterior cingulate cortex, precuneus, medial prefrontal cortex, amygdala, ventral tegmental area, hippocampus, striatum, and right angular gyrus. CONCLUSIONS:Utilizing block-design BOLD MRI, we were able to show widespread activation resulting from ANT DBS. Overlap with multiple areas of both the default mode and limbic networks was shown suggesting that these nodes may modulate the effect of seizure control with ANT DBS.
