Abstract
Objective The utilization of fluorescein-guided biopsies and resection has been recently discussed as a suitable strategy to improve and expedite operative techniques for the resection of central nervous system (CNS) tumors. However, little is known about the optical properties of sodium fluorescein (NaFl) in human tumor tissue and their potential impact on ex vivo analyses involving fluorescence-based methods. Methods Tumor tissue was obtained from a study cohort of an observational study on the utilization of fluorescein-guided biopsy and resection (n=5). The optical properties of fluorescein-stained tissue were compared to the optical features of the dye in vitro and in control samples consisting of tumor tissue of high-grade glioma patients (n=3) without intravenous (i.v.) application of NaFl. The dye-exposed tumor tissues were used for optical measurements to confirm the detectability of NaFl emission ex vivo. The tissue samples were fixed in 4%PFA, immersed in 30% sucrose, embedded in Tissue-Tek OCT compound, and cut to 10 μm cryosections. Spatially resolved emission spectra from tumor samples were recorded on representative slides with a Confocal Laser Scanning Microscope FV1000 (Olympus GmbH, Hamburg, Germany) upon excitation with λexc = 488 nm. Results Optical measurements of fluorescein in 0.9% sodium chloride (NaCl) under in vitro conditions showed an absorption maximum of λmax abs = 479 nm as detected with spectrophotometer Specord 200 and an emission peak at λmax em = 538 nm recorded with the emCCD detection system of a custom-made microscope-based single particle setup using a 500 nm long-pass filter. Further measurements revealed pH- and concentration-dependent emission spectra of NaFl. Under ex vivo conditions, confocal laser scanning microscopy of fluorescein tumor samples revealed a slight bathochromic shift and a broadening of the emission band. Conclusion Tumor uptake of NaFl leads to changes in the optical properties – a bathochromic shift and broadening of the emission band – possibly caused by the dye’s high pH sensitivity and concentration-dependent reabsorption acting as an inner filter of the dye’s emission, particularly in the short wavelength region of the emission spectrum where absorption and fluorescence overlap. Understanding the ex vivo optical properties of fluorescein is crucial for testing and validating its further applicability as an optical probe for intravital microscopy, immunofluorescence localization studies, and flow cytometry analysis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Repeated mechanical thrombectomy for acute stroke treatment in individual patients has been proven feasible. However, less is known about the etiology of recurrent vessel occlusions after prior thrombectomy. We aimed to understand if the etiology of such recurrent events differs from the first stroke. METHODS Retrospectively, we identified all patients at our center who received a repeated mechanical thrombectomy between 2007 and 2019. Clinical data were retrieved from medical records. Etiology of stroke was evaluated retrospectively, and angiographic studies were revisited. RESULTS Twenty-three patients (1.5%) were identified. Median age was 68 years (IQR 56-77). Median NIHSS at first admission was 11 points (IQR 5-15). In nine cases (39.1%), the recurrent vessel occlusion was located exactly at the same position as the prior occlusion. Overall, five (21.7%) patients had a remarkable extracranial pathology as likely cause of stroke recurrence. In 16 patients (69.6%), the etiology of the first stroke and its recurrence was considered as likely being the same, mostly of cardioembolic or unknown origin. In the seven remaining patients (30.4%), the cause of stroke possibly differed from the first event, with five patients (21.7%) having a postinterventional intracranial intimal lesion as possible cause of stroke. CONCLUSION Incidence of repeated thrombectomy was low. However, the high number of patients with known origin of stroke etiology raises the question how their monitoring may be optimized. The number of patients with remarkable extracranial pathologies or intracranial endothelial lesions supports current clinical practice to pay attention to final angiographic series.

Surgical treatment of meningiomas located in the rolandic area: the role of navigated transcranial magnetic stimulation for preoperative planning, surgical strategy, and prediction of arachnoidal cleavage and motor outcome. J Neurosurg 2019; 133:107-118. [PMID: 31200378 DOI: 10.3171/2019.3.jns183411] [Citation(s) in RCA: 15] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/04/2018] [Accepted: 03/15/2019] [Indexed: 01/15/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE Surgical treatment of convexity meningiomas is usually considered a low-risk procedure. Nevertheless, the risk of postoperative motor deficits is higher (7.1%-24.7% of all cases) for lesions located in the rolandic region, especially when an arachnoidal cleavage plane with the motor pathway is not identifiable. The authors analyzed the possible role of navigated transcranial magnetic stimulation (nTMS) for planning resection of rolandic meningiomas and predicting the presence or lack of an intraoperative arachnoidal cleavage plane as well as the postoperative motor outcome. METHODS Clinical data were retrospectively collected from surgical cases involving patients affected by convexity, parasagittal, or falx meningiomas involving the rolandic region, who received preoperative nTMS mapping of the motor cortex (M1) and nTMS-based diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) fiber tracking of the corticospinal tract before surgery at 2 different neurosurgical centers. Surgeons' self-reported evaluation of the impact of nTMS-based mapping on surgical strategy was analyzed. Moreover, the nTMS mapping accuracy was evaluated in comparison with intraoperative neurophysiological mapping (IONM). Lastly, we assessed the role of nTMS as well as other pre- and intraoperative parameters for predicting the patients' motor outcome and the presence or absence of an intraoperative arachnoidal cleavage plane. RESULTS Forty-seven patients were included in this study. The nTMS-based planning was considered useful in 89.3% of cases, and a change of the surgical strategy was observed in 42.5% of cases. The agreement of nTMS-based planning and IONM-based strategy in 35 patients was 94.2%. A new permanent motor deficit occurred in 8.5% of cases (4 of 47). A higher resting motor threshold (RMT) and the lack of an intraoperative arachnoidal cleavage plane were the only independent predictors of a poor motor outcome (p = 0.04 and p = 0.02, respectively). Moreover, a higher RMT and perilesional edema also predicted the lack of an arachnoidal cleavage plane (p = 0.01 and p = 0.03, respectively). Preoperative motor status, T2 cleft sign, contrast-enhancement pattern, and tumor volume had no predictive value. CONCLUSIONS nTMS-based motor mapping is a useful tool for presurgical assessment of rolandic meningiomas, especially when a clear cleavage plane with M1 is not present. Moreover, the RMT can indicate the presence or absence of an intraoperative cleavage plane and predict the motor outcome, thereby helping to identify high-risk patients before surgery.

Abstract
Background We introduce a user-friendly, standardized protocol for tractography of the major language fiber bundles. Method The introduced method uses dMRI images for tractography whereas the ROI definition is based on structural T1 MPRAGE MRI templates, without normalization to MNI space. ROIs for five language-relevant fiber bundles were visualized on an axial, coronal, or sagittal view of T1 MPRAGE images. The ROIs were defined based upon the tracts’ obligatory pathways, derived from literature and own experiences in peritumoral tractography. Results The resulting guideline was evaluated for each fiber bundle in ten healthy subjects and ten patients by one expert and three raters. Overall, 300 ROIs were evaluated and compared. The targeted language fiber bundles could be tracked in 88% of the ROI pairs, based on the raters’ result blinded ROI placements. The evaluation indicated that the precision of the ROIs did not relate to the varying experience of the raters. Conclusions Our guideline introduces a standardized language tractography method for routine preoperative workup and for research contexts. The ROI placement guideline based on easy-to-identify anatomical landmarks proved to be user-friendly and accurate, also in inexperienced test persons.

Motor plasticity after extra-intracranial bypass surgery in occlusive cerebrovascular disease. Neurology 2016; 87:27-35. [PMID: 27281529 DOI: 10.1212/wnl.0000000000002802] [Citation(s) in RCA: 21] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/17/2015] [Accepted: 03/25/2016] [Indexed: 11/15/2022] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To explore plasticity in patients scheduled for extra-intracranial bypass surgery due to unilateral symptomatic occlusive cerebrovascular disease via navigated transcranial magnetic stimulation. METHODS In this observational study, patients were allocated to different substudies and examined before and 3 months after operation. (1) Corticospinal excitability was determined via identification of the resting motor threshold. (2) Intracortical inhibition and facilitation were tested by paired pulse transcranial magnetic stimulation. (3) Area of cortical representation of the first dorsal interosseous muscle was identified. RESULTS (1) Resting motor thresholds were higher in the affected hemispheres with impaired cerebrovascular reserve capacity compared to the unaffected hemispheres (45.7% ± 2.2% compared to 39.2% ± 1.4%, n = 39, p < 0.05). Reduced excitability normalized 3 months after revascularization (51% ± 2.6% → 45% ± 1.9%, n = 21, p < 0.05). (2) In paired pulse paradigms, there was a motor disinhibition in the operated hemispheres. (3) There was a reduction of the cortical representation areas of the first dorsal interosseous muscle (2.3 ± 0.5 cm(2) → 0.9 ± 0.6 cm(2), n = 9, p < 0.05) after operation. CONCLUSIONS Our data demonstrate a reversibly impaired motor cortical function in the chronically ischemic brain. In carefully selected patients, cerebral revascularization leads to improved motor output indicated by a lower resting motor threshold, intracortical disinhibition, and more focused motor cortical representation.

Abstract
Nickel-based superalloys are the materials of choice in the hot section of current gas turbines, but they are reaching temperature limits constrained by their melting temperature range. Co–Re alloy development was prompted by a search for new materials for future gas turbines, where the temperature of application will be considerably higher. Addition of the very high melting point refractory metal Re to Co can increase the melting range of Co alloys to much higher temperatures than the commercial Co alloys in use today. The alloy development strategy is first discussed very briefly. In this program, model ternary and quaternary compositions were studied in order to develop a basic understanding of the alloy system.In situneutron and synchrotron measurements (small and wide angle) at high temperatures were extensively used for this purpose and some selected results from thein situmeasurements are presented. In particular, the effect of boron doping in Co–Re–Cr alloys and the stability of the TaC precipitates at high temperatures were investigated. A fine dispersion of TaC precipitates strengthens some Co–Re alloys, and their stability at the application temperature is critical for the long-term creep properties.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Neurological and oncological outcomes of motor eloquent brain-tumor patients depend upon the ability to localize functional areas and the respective proposed therapy. We set out to determine whether the use of navigated transcranial magnetic stimulation (nTMS) had an impact on treatment and outcome in patients with brain tumors in motor eloquent locations. METHODS We enrolled 250 consecutive patients and compared their functional and oncological outcomes to a matched pre-nTMS control group (n = 115). RESULTS nTMS mapping results disproved suspected involvement of primary motor cortex in 25.1% of cases, expanded surgical indication in 14.8%, and led to planning of more extensive resection in 35.2% of cases and more restrictive resection in 3.5%. In comparison with the control group, the rate of gross total resections increased significantly from 42% to 59% (P < .05). Progression-free-survival for low grade glioma was significantly better in the nTMS group at 22.4 months than in control group at 15.4 months (P < .05). Integration of nTMS led to a nonsignificant change of postoperative deficits from 8.5% in the control group to 6.1% in the nTMS group. CONCLUSIONS nTMS provides crucial data for preoperative planning and surgical resection of tumors involving essential motor areas. Expanding surgical indications and extent of resection based on nTMS enables more patients to undergo surgery and might lead to better neurological outcomes and higher survival rates in brain tumor patients. The impact of this study should go far beyond the neurosurgical community because it could fundamentally improve treatment and outcome, and its results will likely change clinical practice.

Abstract
Abstract
BACKGROUND:
Navigated transcranial magnetic stimulation (nTMS) is increasingly used in presurgical brain mapping. Preoperative nTMS results correlate well with direct cortical stimulation (DCS) data in the identification of the primary motor cortex. Repetitive nTMS can also be used for mapping of speech-sensitive cortical areas.
OBJECTIVE:
The current cohort study compares the safety and effectiveness of preoperative nTMS with DCS mapping during awake surgery for the identification of language areas in patients with left-sided cerebral lesions.
METHODS:
Twenty patients with tumors in or close to left-sided language eloquent regions were examined by repetitive nTMS before surgery. During awake surgery, language-eloquent cortex was identified by DCS. nTMS results were compared for accuracy and reliability with regard to DCS by projecting both results into the cortical parcellation system.
RESULTS:
Presurgical nTMS maps showed an overall sensitivity of 90.2%, specificity of 23.8%, positive predictive value of 35.6%, and negative predictive value of 83.9% compared with DCS. For the anatomic Broca's area, the corresponding values were a sensitivity of 100%, specificity of 13.0%, positive predictive value of 56.5%, and negative predictive value of 100%, respectively.
CONCLUSION:
Good overall correlation between repetitive nTMS and DCS was observed, particularly with regard to negatively mapped regions. Noninvasive inhibition mapping with nTMS is evolving as a valuable tool for preoperative mapping of language areas. Yet its low specificity in posterior language areas in the current study necessitates further research to refine the methodology.

Abstract
AbstractThe mechanical behaviour of γ-TiAl reinforced with Ti2AIC platelets is investigated in the temperature range between 293K and 1255K. Comparison with the particle-free material of same matrix composition reveals a pronounced strengthening effect of the platelike reinforcements up to about 1000K. However, under creep loading the composite is remarkably weak. It is shown that this weakness is caused by diffusional creep along the particle/matrix interface. Modelling of this process indicates that the dimensions of the Ti2AlC particles (thickness d=lμm, length l=20μm) are too small to avoid this unwanted deformation mechanism. It is concluded that thicknesses well above 10±m are needed to maintain reinforcement strengthening at high temperature in this system.

Abstract
There is increasing demand to functionalize meso- and nanoporous materials by coating and make the porous substrate biocompatible or environmentally friendly. However, coating on a meso-porous substrate poses great challenges, especially if the pore aspect ratio is high. We adopted the pulsed laser deposition (PLD) method to coat Ni(3)Al-based meso-porous membranes, which were fabricated from a single-crystal Ni-based superalloy by a unique selective phase dissolution technique. These membranes were about 250 µm thick and had channel-like pores (∼200 nm wide) with very high aspect ratio. Two different coating materials, i.e. diamond-like carbon (DLC) and titanium, were used to coat these membranes. High energy C or Ti ions, produced in the plasma plume by the PLD process, penetrated the channel-like pores and deposited coatings on the pore walls deep inside the membrane. The thickness and the quality of coatings on the pore walls were examined using the dual-beam system. The coating thickness, of the order of 50 nm, was adherent to the pore walls and was quite uniform at different depths. The carbon and the Ti deposition behaved quite similarly. The preliminary experiments showed that the PLD is an adequate method for coating fine open cavities of complex geometry. Simulations based on stopping and the range of ions in matter (SRIM) calculations helped in understanding the deposition processes on pore walls at great depths.

Abstract
A method which is able to produce different types of nano-structured materials, namely nano-particles, nano-structured surfaces and nano-porous membranes, from two-phase metallic alloys is reviewed. The new process first establishes nano-structures in the bulk alloy and then separates them by selective phase dissolution. Variation in processing makes it possible to produce different types of nano-structure even from the same alloy. The process can be applied to many different alloy systems. An overview is presented emphasizing the versatility of the process with examples of different nano-structure types that can be produced. Further, the new method is discussed in relation to similar processes (specifically, electrochemical processes) which have been used for nano-structure synthesis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Interstitial pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is reported after long term, severe exposure to welding fumes in poorly ventilated workplaces. METHODS Fifteen welders with IPF were examined--13 in our outpatient clinic--from 1990 to 1997. Occupational histories and examinations, lung function analyses, symptoms and clinical findings, histological analyses in 13 patients partly including SEM/EDX-analyses, chest X-rays, chest computed tomographies were conducted. RESULTS Duration of work as welders was 28 years and the cumulative dose of welding fumes 221 mg/m(3) x years (median). Lung function studies found pattern of restriction or combined restriction-obstruction, lower diffusion capacity, and reduced blood oxygen tension at exercise. Histologically, patchy interstitial fibrosis was noted. Accumulations of particulate matter typically for welding fume were detected. EDX showed increase of iron load and close topographical relationship to welding fume particles embedded in areas of scattered fibrosis. CONCLUSION While epidemiological data are limited, it is reasonable to conclude that a causal relationship exists between IPF in welders with long term exposure to high concentrations of welding fumes.

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the significance of positional relationships of the components on gait after total hip replacement (THR). Gait was analysed using multicomponent force platforms integrated into a treadmill, in conjunction with an optoelectric measuring system. 26 patients, after undergoing total hip replacement, were classified according to the vertical and horizontal positions of the centre of rotation, the vertical position of the femur and the functional leg length, and compared with a control group. Deterioration in parameters of gait was observed following cranialisation of the centre of rotation or of the femur, whereas neither medial movement of the centre of rotation nor leg lengthening by up to 1 cm had any effect. This study emphasises the importance of considering, at the time of preoperative planning, the effect of the position of the prosthesis on the functional parameters of gait.

Abstract
cDNA clones for all enzymes of the prechorismate pathway of higher plants have previously been cloned, with the exception of the second enzyme of the pathway, 3-dehydroquinate synthase. Here we describe the isolation of a cDNA encoding a 3-dehydroquinate synthase from tomato which was identified by complementing a 3-dehydroquinate synthase-deficient Escherichia coli strain with a tomato cDNA library. The deduced amino acid sequence contains a putative N-terminal plastid-specific transit peptide, and the sequence of the mature enzyme resembles those of the corresponding bacterial enzymes more than of the fungal enzymes. Sequence identity was even higher between the tomato and E. coli sequences than between the E. coli and other known bacterial sequences. The abundance of 3-dehydroquinate synthase transcripts differ in the organs of tomato plants analyzed. In cultured tomato cells, the abundance of 3-dehydroquinate synthase transcripts increased 9-fold within 4 to 5 h of elicitor treatment.
