So far, in-depth analysis of dendritic spines in human brain tissue is lacking. This study presents a comprehensive analysis of human dendritic spine morphology and density using a unique dataset from human brain tissue from 27 patients (8 females, 19 males, aged 18-71 yr) undergoing tumor or epilepsy surgery at three neurosurgery sites. We used acute slices and organotypic brain slice cultures to examine dendritic spines, classifying them into the three main morphological subtypes: mushroom, thin, and stubby, via three-dimensional (3-D) reconstruction using ZEISS arivis Pro software. A deep learning model, trained on 39 diverse datasets, automated spine segmentation and 3-D reconstruction, achieving a 74% F1-score and reducing processing time by over 50%. We show significant differences in spine density by sex, dendrite type, and tissue condition. Females had higher spine densities than males, and apical dendrites were denser in spines than basal ones. Acute tissue showed higher spine densities compared with cultured human brain tissue. With time in culture, mushroom spines decreased, whereas stubby and thin spine percentages increased, particularly from 7-9 to 14 days in vitro, reflecting potential synaptic plasticity changes. Our study underscores the importance of using human brain tissue to understand unique synaptic properties and shows that integrating deep learning with traditional methods enables efficient large-scale analysis, revealing key insights into sex- and tissue-specific dendritic spine dynamics relevant to neurological diseases.<b>NEW & NOTEWORTHY</b> This study presents a dataset of nearly 4,000 morphologically reconstructed human dendritic spines across different ages, gender, and tissue conditions.

Under hypoxic environments, compensatory changes in cerebral blood flow (CBF) are necessary to couple oxygen delivery to metabolic demand in the face of reduced oxygen availability. In this study, we aimed to evaluate regional and global cerebral blood flow (CBF) in Andean children and adolescents living in the highest city in the world at 5,100 m. Eighteen Andeans (ages 6-17 yr) living in La Rinconada, Peru (5,100 m) were compared with sex-, age-, size-, and maturity-matched high-altitude Sherpa (3,800 m) living in the Khumbu valley of Nepal (<i>n</i> = 18) and lowlanders (44 m) living at sea-level in Cardiff, Wales (<i>n</i> = 18). Volumetric measurements of CBF were assessed using duplex ultrasound of the internal carotid and vertebral arteries to assess regional and global CBF. End-tidal gases and oxygen saturation were measured in all groups, while hemoglobin concentration was assessed in Andeans. Despite Andeans living under a more severe hypoxic environment, global CBF was similar between Andeans (687.01 ± 138.49 mL/min), Sherpa (711.27 ± 110.27 mL/min), and lowlanders (704.88 ± 59.23 mL/min).

Fine motor control tasks performed by mice have become widely used in assaying neural and biophysical motor system mechanisms. Although fine motor tasks provide useful insights into behaviors that require complex multi-joint motor control, there is no previously developed physiological biomechanical model of the adult mouse forelimb available for estimating kinematics, muscle activity, or kinetics during behaviors. Here, we developed a musculoskeletal model based on high-resolution imaging of the mouse forelimb that includes muscles spanning the neck, trunk, shoulder, and limbs. Physics-based optimal control simulations of the forelimb model were used to estimate in vivo muscle activity present when constrained to the tracked kinematics during reaching movements. The activity of a subset of muscles was recorded and used to assess the accuracy of the muscle patterning in simulation. We found that the synthesized muscle patterning in the forelimb model had a strong resemblance to empirical muscle patterning, suggesting that our model has utility in providing a realistic set of estimated muscle excitations over time when given a kinematic template. The strength of the similarity between empirical muscle activity and optimal control predictions increases as mice performance improves throughout learning of the reaching task. Our computational tools are available as open-source in the OpenSim physics and modeling platform. Our model can enhance research into limb control across broad research topics and can inform analyses of motor learning, muscle synergies, neural patterning, and behavioral research that would otherwise be inaccessible.<b>NEW & NOTEWORTHY</b> Investigations into motor planning and execution lack an accurate and complete model of the forelimb, which could bolster or expand on findings.

Although this phenomenon has been observed in movements, the effect of reward on implicit control of isometric actions, such as gripping or grasping, is relatively unknown. How reward-related invigoration generalizes to other effortful actions is an important question. Reward invigorates reaching movements and saccades, supporting the idea that reward pays the additional effort cost of moving faster. Effort in isometric force generation is less understood, so here we ask whether and how reward-related invigoration generalizes to isometric force gripping. And if so, what implicit characteristics of gripping change when there is a prospect of reward? Participants (<i>n</i> = 19) gripped a force transducer and the force applied was mapped to radial position of an onscreen cursor. Each trial, a target appeared in one of four locations; increasing grip force moved the cursor toward the target. The gripping action was interchangeable for all target positions. In each block of 100 trials, one target was consistently rewarded, whereas the other targets were not. When gripping to acquire the rewarded target, participants reacted faster, generated force more rapidly and to a greater extent, without increasing variance and without increasing the rising force-time integral. These findings support the generalization of reward-related invigoration in isometric force tasks, and that the brain exquisitely trades-off reward and effort costs to obtain reward more rapidly without increasing variance and without more effort costs than necessary.<b>NEW & NOTEWORTHY</b> Gripping actions are important for day-to-day tasks, for medical diagnostics like strength and force control, and for choice selection in decision-making experiments. Comparing isometric gripping responses to reward and nonreward cues, we observed reward-based invigoration mediated by selective increases in effort.

Adult marmosets exhibited a clear hand effect, performing straighter and faster movements with their right hand despite showing idiosyncratic hand preference according to a traditional food retrieval assay. Hand effects were also evident for younger animals but seemed attenuated in the older animals.
