Prophylactic meditations for migraine were stopped 4 weeks before the experiment; however, the participants were allowed to take emergency medicine if their pain was too intense and hard to bear. Detailed information regarding the participants’ drug intake was recorded. All participants had been free ...
We focused on the hippocampus as this structure has well-defined subfields, including the dentate gyrus (DG), the CA3 subfield, and the CA1 subfield (Fig. 5A). The electrophysiological properties of the neurons within each subfield have been well characterized, and their roles in learning and ...
First, cells must be generated by successive cell divisions and their identity must be determined-as neurons, and then as particular classes of neurons. Second, neurons from one region must extend axons along specific pathways to appropriate target regions to form the linked pieces of a functional...
Positron emission tomography measurements of regional cerebral blood flow (rCBF) were performed in normal volunteers during two auditory--verbal memory tasks: a subspan and supraspan task. The difference in rCBF between tasks was used to identify brain areas/systems involved in auditory--verbal long...
The functional roles of GSLs, including gangliosides, in the developing nervous system have been analyzed at the cellular level. Gangliosides are expressed in much greater amounts in isolated neurons and in the neuropil teased from areas immediately around the neuron cell body and the dendrites th...
Nowadays, parents come from all over the world to Pennsylvania to see and learn from the work of Doman and his team; they want to discover how they can fulfil their roles as nature teachers, by using their love, understanding and instincts for the benefit of their children. For in the wo...
and the neural mechanisms underlying mathematical processing [7,8,9]. One of the key areas of interest in the scientific literature is the cognitive processes involved in mental arithmetic. Researchers have explored how individuals manipulate numbers in their minds, examining the strategies and techniqu...
Long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids such as docosahexaenoic acid and arachidonic acid play vital roles in brain development during infancy. In India, LCPUFA intake during pregnancy is substantially low, mostly attributed to poor dietary intake. Infants are likely to have similar trend considering low...
A growing number of studies have used stylized network models of communication to predict brain function from structure. Most have focused on a small set of models applied globally. Here, we compare a large number of models at both global and regional le
