Dendritic and Synaptic Degeneration in Pyramidal Neurons of the Sensorimotor Cortex in Neonatal Mice With Kaolin-Induced Hydrocephalus
This study evaluated the effect of hydrocephalus on dendritic arborization and synaptic structure of the pyramidal neurons of the sensorimotor cortex of neonatal hydrocephalic mice. Sterile kaolin suspension (0.01 ml of 250 mg/mL) was injected intracisternally into day old mice. Control animals mice received sham injections. Pups were weighed and sacrificed on postnatal days (PND) 7, 14 and 21. Fixed brain tissue blocks were silver impregnated using a modified Golgi staining technique and immunolabeled with synaptophysin to determine dendritic morphology and synaptic integrity respectively. Data were analyzed using ANOVA a...

Onset and Resolution of Chiari Malformations and Hydrocephalus in Syndromic Craniosynostosis following Posterior Vault Distraction
Conclusions: As expected, PVDO did not significantly affect intracranial hydrodynamics to the extent that hydrocephalus shunting rates were different for patients with syndromic craniosynostosis. However, PVDO was associated with a reduced risk of developing a Chiari malformation; however, prospective evaluation is needed to determine causality. CLINICAL QUESTION/LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Therapeutic, III.

Sagittal Spinal Deformity in Patients with Idiopathic Normal Pressure Hydrocephalus
CONCLUSION: Positive sagittal balance, with thoracic kyphosis exceeding lumbar lordosis, is common in iNPH patients. This may lead to postural instability, especially in patients whose gait does not improve following shunting. These patients may warrant further investigation and workup, including full length standing x-rays. Future studies should assess for improvement in the sagittal plane parameters following shunt placement.PMID:36951031 | DOI:10.5137/1019-5149.JTN.36555-22.3
