29,30,]. If the group×stress interaction resulted in significant clusters, they were subsequently used as data-driven regions of interest (ROIs) for subsequent statistical analyses using Marsbar [31]. The mean regression coefficient (for the factors neutral, negative, and positive in the contrast...
The risk factors for cardiovascular disease are largely the same as those that harm brain health, and—importantly—these shared risk factors are modifiable. This Perspectives article discusses how the conceptual shift from avoiding vascular risk factors
As stroke has become the leading cause of death and disability in China, it has induced a heavy disease burden on society, families, and patients. Despite much attention within the literature, the effect of multiple risk factors on length of stay (LOS) a
Most of the identified genes involve transcription or epigenetic factors that influence the expression of other genes (some with an unknown function), consequently leading to a wide variety of symptoms that are shared among various neurodevelopmental disorders (Graham and Fisher, 2015). It is beyond...
104 Important missing covariates included smoking status, daily exercise, drug adherence, and other factors that influence the risk of developing dementia.105-108 These unknown differences in patients (healthy-user bias) might account for a reduction in the subsequent risk of dementia.109,110 Our ...
In contrast, treatment of cerebral metastases is well known to influence the local and distant in-brain progression as well as patients’ quality of life. In the present study, local recurrence rate was 25.6%, the distant development rate was 26.9%. These rates are congruent with our previous...
See Crosetto and Filippin (2016) for a recent discussion of how characteristics of risk elicitation tasks such as complexity, availability of a safe option, or the range of risk attitudes may affect measured behaviors. To date, the literature contains no discussion of how these factors may intera...
To our knowledge, there has been no research on how these factors influence the likelihood of depression. In the current study, 144 participants completed a short survey on the above factors and the Center for Epidemiological Studies Depression Scale. Sixty-two of these ...
Assessing the impact of these brain fluctuations, the researchers say the effect size is comparable to other known factors affecting risk-taking behaviour, such as drugs that influence the neurotransmitter dopamine that are routinely taken by people with Parkinson's disease. The effect is also similar...
however, it has been shown that performing an fMRI scan of the brain during a 'mind-wandering' state is just as valuable," said Sina Aslan, Ph.D., President of Advance MRI and Adjunct Assistant Professor at the Center for BrainHealth at The University of Texas at ...
