Four new species of Badis are described from West Bengal, India. Badis andrewraoi, new species, is diagnosed by a combination of characters which include absence of a black caudal-fin margin, absence of a conspicuous dark blotch on pectoral-fin base, absence of cleithral and opercular blotches, absence of a blotch on the dorsolateral aspect of the caudal peduncle, absence of an ocellus on the c...

(1000mgat days0 and 14). She continued to experienceworseninglowerextremityweakness.Eventually,shereceived6plasmapheresis treatments withminimal improvement. During the entire periodof follow-up at our center, she required 20 to 30mg daily of oral prednisone. Neurological examination prior to the onset of HiCy therapy revealed symmetrically reduced arm abduction (4−/5) and hip flexion strength ...

fact (it is alternately stated that the DSCT goes to cerebellum by its superior peduncle and its inferior peduncle); but these are usually easily recognized, and do not detract greatly from the overall value. This slender volume should be most useful to anyone who wants to know about primate spinal cord anatomy, and should be in medical school libraries, neurology, neurosurgery, physiology, psy...

Fig 2. A. ADC values of the middle cerebellar peduncle showed significant group differences (p<0.0001): MSA-c > MSA-p > PD = Normal. B. ADC values of the posterior putamen showed significant group differences (p<0.0001): MSA-p > MSA-c = PD = Normal. The MSA-mixed group (n=4) is not shown for the clarity. Error bar= 1 SD. C. SARA scores that assess the severity of cerebellar ataxia correlate sig...

Kernohan-Woltman notch phenomenon (KWP) is an ipsilateral motor weakness due to compression of the contralateral cerebral peduncle. We report two cases of KWP following traumatic brain injury. In case 1, ipsilateral hemiplegia was noted after right subdural hemorrhage. Although magnetic resonance imaging showed no abnormal signal changes on cerebral peduncle, diffusion tensor tractography (DTT)...

The present series of studies was designed to provide a general overview of the development of the region connecting the olfactory bulb to the forebrain. The olfactory peduncle (OP) contains several structures involved in processing odor information with the anterior olfactory nucleus (cortex) being the largest and most studied. Results indicate that considerable growth occurs in the peduncle f...

We use mitochondrial and nuclear sequence data to show that three weakly electric mormyrid fish specimens collected at three widely separated localities in Gabon, Africa over a 13-year period represent an unrecognized lineage within the subfamily Mormyrinae and determine its phylogenetic position with respect to other taxa. We describe these three specimens as a new genus containing two new spe...

The cortico-ponto-cerebellar system is one of the largest projection systems in the primate brain, but in the human brain the nature of the information processing in this system remains elusive. Determining the areas of the cerebral cortex which contribute projections to this system will allow us to better understand information processing within it. Information from the cerebral cortex is conv...
