Publication date: Available online 12 August 2019Source: Journal of Neuroscience MethodsAuthor(s): Salman Zubedat, Evgeny Havkin, Inon Maoz, Shlomit Aga-Mizrachi, Avi AvitalAbstractBackgroundThe startle response is considered as the major physio-behavioral indication of anxiety in health and disease conditions. However, due to different protocols of stimulation and measurement, the magnitude as well as the appearance of the startle response is inconsistent.New methodWe postulate that the startle...
Publication date: Available online 12 August 2019Source: Journal of Neuroscience MethodsAuthor(s): Primoz Ravbar, Kristin Branson, Jie H. SimpsonAbstractAnimals can perform complex and purposeful behaviors by executing simpler movements in flexible sequences. It is particularly challenging to analyze behavior sequences when they are highly variable, as is the case in language production, certain types of birdsong and, as in our experiments, flies grooming. High sequence variability necessitates rigorous...

Replicating the same tactile stimulations across studies is difficult, compared to replicating visual and auditory modalities, which have standardized stimulus sets. Standardizing a stimulation method by replicating...
Publication date: Available online 12 August 2019Source: Journal of Neuroscience MethodsAuthor(s): Niklas Pallast, Frederique Wieters, Gereon R. Fink, Markus AswendtAbstractCell counting in neuroscience is a routine method of utmost importance to support descriptive in vivo findings with quantitative data on the cellular level. Although known to be error- and bias-prone, manual cell counting of histological stained brain slices remains the gold standard in the field. While the manual approach is...

We aimed to compare...

Publication date: October 2019Source: World Neurosurgery, Volume 130Author(s): Moon-Soo Han, Shin Jung, In-Young Kim, Kyung-Sub Moon, Tae-Young Jung, Woo-Youl JangBackgroundHemifacial spasm (HFS), one of the most common hyperactive cranial rhizopathies, is a disorder characterized by spontaneous, intermittent, and repetitive contraction of unilateral facial muscle. The most common cause of HFS is a mechanical compression of the facial nerve at the root exit zone (REZ) by blood vessels located in...
