Abstract: OBJECTIVE We sought to validate the feasibility of facial motor evoked potential (FMEP) in facial nerve (FN) monitoring during vestibular schwannoma (VS) surgery under 2 anesthesia protocols and to examine its value for postoperative prognosis.… read more here.

Abstract: Individual differences in sulcal variation within the anterior and mid-cingulate cortex of the human brain, particularly the presence or absence of a paracingulate sulcus (PCGS), are associated with various motor and cognitive processes. Recently, it… read more here.

DOI: 10.1097/wnr.0000000000000758
Abstract: Motor imagery (MI) has attracted increased interest for motor rehabilitation as many studies have shown that MI shares the same neural networks as motor execution (ME). Nevertheless, MI in terms of facial movement has not… read more here.

Abstract: We studied facial motor control in elephants, animals with muscular dexterous trunks. Facial nucleus neurons (~54,000 in Asian elephants, ~63,000 in African elephants) outnumbered those of other land-living mammals. The large-eared African elephants had more… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fneur.2017.00522
Abstract: The somatotopy of the trigeminocervical complex of the rat was defined as a basis for describing circuitry for reflex behaviors directed through the facial motor nucleus. Thus, transganglionic transport of horseradish peroxidase conjugates applied to… read more here.
