(2021-10-02)Myelination allows for the regulation of conduction velocity, affecting the precise timing of neuronal inputs important for the development and function of brain circuits. In turn, myelination may be altered by changes in experience, neuronal activity, ... -
(Public Library of Science (PLoS), 2018-12-26)Previous studies investigating the effects of transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) on muscle strength showed no consensus. Therefore, the purpose of this article was to systematically review the literature on the effects of single dose tDCS ...
-
(2019-08-01)The pathophysiological mechanisms of cognitive and gait disturbances in subjects with normal-pressure hydrocephalus (NPH) are still unclear. Cholinergic and other neurotransmitter abnormalities have been reported in animal models of NPH. The objective ...
-
(2021-05)Montelukast is a well-established antiasthmatic drug with little side effects. It is a leukotriene receptor antagonist and recent research suggests cognitive benefits from its anti-inflammatory actions on the central nervous system. However, changes ...
-
(University of Iceland, School of Health Sciences, Faculty of Psychology, 2023-11-30)When we are viewing the environment around us, we are exposed to an overwhelming continuous stream of information: not everything can be processed at once, and the perceptual system must pick and choose. We must direct our attention and select stimuli ...
-
(2019-04)Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) may be effective for enhancing cognitive functioning. In this review, we aimed to systematically evaluate the effects of rTMS on attention in psychiatric diseases. In particular, we searched PubMed ...
-
(Ovid Technologies (Wolters Kluwer Health), 2017-12-29)Objective To characterize, among European and Han Chinese populations, the genetic predictors of maculopapular exanthema (MPE), a cutaneous adverse drug reaction common to antiepileptic drugs. Methods We conducted a case-control genome-wide association ...
-
(Elsevier BV, 2019-05)Background Neurological disorders are increasingly recognised as major causes of death and disability worldwide. The aim of this analysis from the Global Burden of Diseases, Injuries, and Risk Factors Study (GBD) 2016 is ...
-
(University of Iceland, School of Health Sciences, Faculty of Psychology, 2023-10)Our surroundings are seldom stable and are filled with various information. Visual processing is one of the ways the brain deals with all this information; however, the capacity of our visual system is limited. To deal with this limitation, we have ...
-
(Springer International Publishing, 2019)Face recognition is an essential skill that in many species is associated with apparently specialized neurological and cognitive mechanisms. This chapter summarizes some of the behavioral and neuroscientific research on laterality effects in face ...
-
(Frontiers Media SA, 2019-04-05)High frequency oscillations (HFOs) are electroencephalographic correlates of brain activity detectable in a frequency range above 80 Hz. They co-occur with physiological processes such as saccades, movement execution, and memory formation, but are also ...
-
(Hindawi Limited, 2016)The human brain adapts to changing demands by altering its functional and structural properties (neuroplasticity) which results in learning and acquiring skills. Convergent evidence from both human and animal studies suggests that enhanced physical ...
-
(Brown University, Providence, Rhode Island, 2013)In this thesis, we explore how objects affect the space around them. We show that spatial information is extracted from even completely novel objects. Information derived from the shape of objects is swiftly and automatically integrated into a variety ...
-
(Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2019-09-14)Background Electrical stimulation is widely used in experimental pain research but it lacks selectivity towards small nociceptive fibers. When using standard surface patch electrodes and rectangular pulses, large fibers are activated at a lower threshold ...
-
(2021-04-19)Quantitative electroencephalography (EEG) distinguishes itself from clinical EEG by the application of mathematical approaches and computer scientific methods [...].
-
(MDPI AG, 2019-02-04)Whereas aerobic training has found to be beneficial for inhibitory control, less is known on the efficiency of other exercise types in children. The present study compared the effects of aerobic and coordinative training on behavioral and neurophysiological ...
-
(Frontiers Media SA, 2017-05-30)The endocannabinoid system comprises several molecular entities such as endogenous ligands [anandamide (AEA) and 2-arachidonoylglycerol (2-AG)], receptors (CB1 and CB2), enzymes such as [fatty acid amide hydrolase (FAHH) and monoacylglycerol lipase ...
-
(Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2018-05-29)General cognitive function is a prominent and relatively stable human trait that is associated with many important life outcomes. We combine cognitive and genetic data from the CHARGE and COGENT consortia, and UK Biobank (total N = 300,486; age 16–102) ...
