Background: Multimodal exercise programs do not specifically target lumbar paraspinal musculature, but incorporate aspects of different exercises to have an overall benefit. Objective: To investigate the effect of a multimodal exercise program on paraspinal muscle volume and composition, and patient outcomes in individuals with chronic low back pain (CLB ...

Real-time dynamic imaging of microbubbles is crucial for understanding their microscale biophysical interactions and advancing ultrasound therapy. Despite progress in time-resolved optical imaging, existing techniques still face trade-offs between acquisition speed, spatial resolution, affordability, and system complexity. Here, we introduce compressed op ...

Introduction: Exercise therapy is the most recommended treatment for chronic low back pain (LBP), with evidence supporting modest effects, likely due to the heterogeneity of patient presentations. Evidence suggests that matching individuals to the most appropriate exercise type could improve outc ...

Objective: Focal cortical dysplasia (FCD) causes drug-resistant epilepsy requiring presurgical evaluation. Invasive electroencephalographic (EEG) studies demonstrate that sleep modulates epileptic activity, including interictal epileptiform discharges (IEDs), fast oscillations (FOs) in the beta ( ...

Cortical oscillations across sleep-wake cycles are essential for coordinating functional brain dynamics. High-density electroencephalography (HDEEG) combined with electrical source imaging (ESI) provides a noninvasive approach to map cortical dynamics; however, its ability to capture spatial ongo ...

Neuroimaging open-data initiatives have led to increased availability of large scientific datasets. While these datasets are shifting the processing bottleneck from compute-intensive to data-intensive, current standardized analysis tools have yet to adopt strategies that mitigate the costs associated with large data transfers. A major challenge in adaptin ...

Background: Stroke is a leading cause of death and disability, with proprioceptive impairments affecting up to 64% of survivors. These impairments hinder sensorimotor recovery, significantly impacting poststroke quality of life. Proprioception depends on an integrated brain network but remains underexplored due to limitations in clinical assessments, hind ...

Cerebral small vessel disease (CSVD) can manifest as brain lesions visible on magnetic resonance imaging, including white matter hyperintensities (WMH), cerebral microbleeds (CMB), perivascular spaces (PVS), lacunes, and recent small subcortical infarcts (RSSI). Detection and segmentation of thes ...

The PResymptomatic EValuation of Experimental or Novel Treatments for Alzheimer's Disease (PREVENT-AD) is an investigator-driven study that was created in 2011 and enrolled cognitively normal older adults with a family history of sporadic AD. Participants are deeply phenotyped and have now be ...

Background: Intensive language-action therapy treats language deficits and depressive symptoms in chronic poststroke aphasia, yet the underlying neural mechanisms remain underexplored. Long-range temporal correlations (LRTCs) in blood oxygenation level-dependent signals indicate persistence in brain activity patterns and may relate to learning and levels ...
