Step 1.1: cleaning my desk and devices

P.S. will be validating the new learning about willpower down the way.

Normally I should have unlimited willpower when it comes to things I do effortlessly.

Things I like and do effortlessly:

Biggest thing to ever come out of my little group. Pls help spread this finding!

We found clean, CAUSAL evidence that the shingles vaccine prevents a good chunk of dementia cases. So, could a virus cause Alzheimer’s->YES!

Hear me out & see preprint: bit.ly/3MVqXU9
🧵1/

There’s recently been ⬆️ interest in the possibility that a virus may be involved in the causal pathways of dementia. Most attention has been on herpesviruses, incl the VZV that causes chickenpox and shingles, partly because of their lifelong latency (bit.ly/3nibvYk).
2/

In Wales starting in Sept 2013, the shingles vaccine was rolled out using an exact DOB cutoff. Those born on or after Sept 2 1933 were eligible, while those born earlier weren’t and remained ineligible for life. We analyzed EHR data for all of Wales with DOB exact to the week.

#YourBrainOnMusic 🧠🎵🎶
Was passiert eigentlich in unserem Gehirn, wenn wir #Musik hören? #neuroscience

Mit diesem Thema werden Bücher gefüllt - ich fokussiere hier nur auf ein paar Bereiche - weiter unten gibt's vertiefende Literatur für alle, die mehr Wissen wollen :) (1/n)

Beim Musikhören ist nicht nur der Bereich im Gehirn besonders aktiv, der für das „Hören“ zuständig ist sondern viele weitere Strukturen beider Gehirnhälften, die mit der Ver- und Bearbeitung von Emotionen, Erinnerungen und der Steuerung unserer Stress-Systeme zu tun haben. (2/n)

Strukturelle Merkmale der Musik wie die Klangfarbe, Intensität (laut, leise), Rhythmus werden vermutlich schon sehr früh analysiert im Hirnstamm, der u.a. mit der Kontrolle des Autonomen Nervensystems (ANS) beauftragt ist (3/n)

So excited to announce our preprint describing tau in extracellular vesicles from Alzheimer's disease brain tissue! A thread... ➡️ @Duff_Lab @bwfalcon

doi.org/10.1101/2023.0…

#neuroscience #brain #science #extracellularvesicles #CryoEM #teamtomo

We used quantitative mass spectrometry to profile 8 density fractions of human brain EVs: check out github to explore the data: github.com/duff-lab-team/…

Extra special thanks to @darraghpobrien and @EmirTurkes1!!

Tau in EVs is pathological and can seed prion-like tau propagation in the brain🧠

Clinical case! 🧠💭🧵
1/7 A 26-year-old woman from a rural region of Mexico presented in a state of catatonia. At age 21, she begun to exhibit aggressiveness. At age 23, she started having difficulties handling money, she constantly misplaced things. Sometimes she was disoriented

2/7 At age 26, 2 days after delivering her first child, she had a (first) psychotic episode, with incoherent speech, disorganized behavior, aggressiveness, visual & auditory hallucinations. She neglected her newborn, saying repeatedly that the child was not hers.

3/7 Psychotic symptoms were mixed with periods of catatonia. She recieved risperidone 2 mg/day, which worsened the catatonic states. She was referred to our hospital. On admission, risperidone was suspended. We observed immobility, mutism, staring, posturing, waxy flexibility...

Mitochondrial impairments can lead to mental illness and neurological disease. It's true! 🧵(1/9) #metabolicpsychiatry #mitochondria

Some believe the root cause of certain types of mental disorders is things like mercury or allergies. (2/9)

it's important to understand that they affect metabolism in specific ways by poisoning mitochondria or affecting regulatory cells. So it still comes back down to mitochondria (3/9) #mentalhealth

Insulin receptors and IGF-1 receptors, along with their signaling partners, are found throughout the brain. I think this needs a thread. 🧵(1/13)

IGF-1 receptors are involved in important #brain processes, including neuronal growth and survival, regulation of synaptic plasticity, and modulation of #neurotransmitter release. They are implicated in neuroprotection and #cognitive function. (2/13) #science #neuroscience

Many of you are familiar with insulin, but maybe you don't know well enough what its important roles are in the brain. Insulin affects neurotransmitter channel activity, brain cholesterol synthesis, and mitochondrial function. (3/13) #mitochondria

Mitochondria & Mental Illness. What are the basics of why those are so intimately intertwined? 🧵(1/8)

Mitochondria play a crucial role in various bodily functions, including neurotransmitter release, hormone regulation, inflammation control, and cell development. (2/8)

Deficiency or dysfunction in mitochondria can result in cell malfunction, leading to imbalances in neurotransmitter release, hormone levels, and inflammation control. (3/8)

Thursday
Hello there 👋🏽 I hope you’re having a lovely Thursday.

Today I thought I should pop in and just to share with you how having a stress ball helped me through academic stress and how that experience became the motivation behind us selling stress balls.

Also still keeping in mind that mental health is still a pressing issue in our community and we here at NeuroBloom Psychology practice are working on raising awareness through our mental health campaign shop. However we can’t do it without you, so we are urging you to check out

the shop. Not only will you be getting yourself an item from our store but 10% of the profit share is donate to Moreson Special School situated in Khomasdal and caters for about 150 learners with cognitive and intellectual impairments from across the country.

Listening to music can be entertaining, and some research suggests that it might even make you healthier.

Music can be a source of pleasure and contentment, but there are many other psychological benefits as well. Music can relax the mind, energize the body, and even help people better manage pain.
The psychological effects of music can be powerful and wide-ranging.

Music therapy is an intervention sometimes used to promote emotional health, help patients cope with stress, and boost psychological well-being.

Below are some benefits of listening to music:
🎧Music can improve cognitive performance

How do we know that our Inner Child is present?
When you are truly feeling your feelings, you are allowing your inner child to be. Your inner child is active when you are being playful, spontaneous, creative, intuitive and surrendering to the spiritual self. When you experience

joy, sadness, anger, fear or affection your child within is coming out.

When the inner child is wounded.
Almost all of us have some inner child healing to do. It is hard for us to be whole and happy adults without bringing the inner child into our lives and thereby healing it.

When we meet our inner child, we often discover that some of our ove, guidance, respect, trust and safety. The lack of these basic needs may have brought about a state of chronic anxiety, fear, shame, anger and despair in our inner child.

A fascinating symptom in #neurology is #Alien Hand syndrome
If anyone has seen @StanleyKubrick ‘s great film Dr. Strangelove, you might have wondered what’s wrong with the titular character

His hand has a #mind of its own!!!

#cinema #neurotwitter #MedTwitter

Simplifying , for carrying out bimanual planned movements, we need a Supplementary Motor Cortex (SMA) (left frontal lobe). This communicates to the opposite side via the corpus callosum. Lesions in any will impair proper bimanual function and cause an “alien limb”#neuroanatomy

Frontal variant (left sma lesion) : Patient will have impulsive groping and difficulty releasing objects
Affects the dominant hand
Can be due to a #stroke, #degeneration

My patient impulsively grabs my hand (with his right hand) despite me telling him not to!
