    Abstract Real-time source localization is crucial for high-end automation and artificial intelligence (AI) products. However, a low signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and limited processing time can reduce localization accuracy. This work proposes a new architecture for a time-domain feedback-based beamformer that meets real-time processing demands. The main objective of this design is to locate reflective sources by estimating their direction of arrival (DOA) and signal range. Incorporating a feedback mechanism in this architecture refines localization precision, a unique aspect of this approach. We conducted an in-depth analysis to compare the effectiveness of time-domain feedback beamforming against conventional time-domain methods, highlighting their benefits and limitations. Our evaluation of the proposed architecture, based on critical performance indicators such as peak-to-sidelobe ratio, mainlobe width, and directivity factor, demonstrates its ability to improve beamformer effectiveness significantly.

    Abstract This article describes a study examining the association between treatment with ACE inhibitors or angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs) and incident hypoglycemia in patients with or without diabetes who were admitted to the internal medicine departments of a tertiary hospital in the Tel Aviv district of Israel. The authors found that treatment with ARBs, but not ACE inhibitors, compared with treatment with neither, was associated with a reduced risk of hypoglycemia regardless of diabetes status.

    Abstract Background: Herpes simplex encephalitis (HSE) is associated with severe mortality and morbidity. Its incidence is estimated at 1:250 000, and the typical symptomatology of acute disease including headaches, mental state disturbances, confusion, sleepiness, and seizures. The chronic phase of the disease is occasionally characterized by epilepsy and neurological deficits.
    Study rationale: The present retrospective single-center study aims to identify risk factors for predicting the development of epilepsy (epileptogenesis) following HSE.
    Methods: Medical records were screened for patients older than 18 years, hospitalized between January 2005 and September 2019 with a diagnosis of "encephalitis" and "herpes simplex virus, HSV" infection. HSE diagnosis was based on an analysis of the cerebrospinal fluid with positive HSV testing results.
    Results: Twenty-three patients fit our inclusion criteria: fever and behavioral changes, followed by seizures, were reported in 58.3 % of patients. On follow-up (59.7 ± 38.8 months), eight patients (34.8 %) developed epilepsy. Pathological imaging and EEG were correlated with acute symptomatic seizures (ASS). ASS was associated with an 8-fold risk increase to develop post-encephalitis epilepsy (PE). PE was associated with younger age but not with CSF results, imaging, or EEG.
    Conclusion: Our retrospective single-center study on PE, following HSE, shows that younger age and ASS were associated with PE. Brain imaging, CSF analysis, and EEG were not associated with the development of epilepsy following HSE.

    Abstract Sleep spindles are crucial for learning in the cortex and basal ganglia (BG) because they facilitate the reactivation of previously active neuronal ensembles. Studying field potentials (FPs) and spiking in the cortex and BG during sleep in non-human primates following pre-sleep learning, we show that FP sleep spindles are widespread in the BG and are similar to cortical spindles in morphology, spectral content, and response to the pre-sleep task. Further, BG spindles are concordant with electroencephalogram (EEG) spindles and associated with increased cortico-BG correlation. However, spindles across the BG differ markedly in their entrainment of local spiking. The spiking activity of striatal projection neurons exhibits consistent phase locking to striatal and EEG spindles, producing phase windows of peaked cross-region spindling. In contrast, firing in other BG nuclei is not entrained to either local or EEG sleep spindles. These results suggest corticostriatal synapses as the main hub for offline cortico-BG communication.

    Abstract Genetic subtyping of patients with Parkinson's disease (PD) may assist in predicting the cognitive and motor outcomes of subthalamic deep brain stimulation (STN-DBS). Practical questions were recently raised with the emergence of new data regarding suboptimal cognitive outcomes after STN-DBS in individuals with PD associated with pathogenic variants in glucocerebrosidase gene (GBA1-PD). However, a variety of gaps and controversies remain. (1) Does STN-DBS truly accelerate cognitive deterioration in GBA1-PD? If so, what is the clinical significance of this acceleration? (2) How should the overall risk-to-benefit ratio of STN-DBS in GBA1-PD be established? (3) If STN-DBS has a negative effect on cognition in GBA1-PD, how can this effect be minimized? (4) Should PD patients be genetically tested before STN-DBS? (5) How should GBA1-PD patients considering STN-DBS be counseled? We aim to summarize the currently available relevant data and detail the gaps and controversies that exist pertaining to these questions. In the absence of evidence-based data, all authors strongly agree that clinicians should not categorically deny DBS to PD patients based solely on genotype (GBA1 status). We suggest that PD patients considering DBS may be offered genetic testing for GBA1, where available and feasible, so the potential risks and benefits of STN-DBS can be properly weighed by both the patient and clinician. © 2023 The Authors.
