Sentences with phrase «cortical response»

Using multichannel electroencephalography (EEG), we investigated temporal dynamics of the cortical response to transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS).

To more precisely characterize the reduced auditory cortical response in ASD, we computed a regressor from the temporal envelope of the movie soundtrack.

Second - order spinal cord pathway contributes to cortical responses after long recoveries from dorsal column injury in squirrel monkeys

Human cortical responses to water in the mouth, and the effects of thirst.

Because a nurturant early environment has been tied to better regulation of stress responses, a viable hypothesis is that a supportive family environment will be tied to greater cortical responses to threat and consequent lesser amygdala reactivity; activity in the amygdala and the right ventrolateral prefrontal cortex (RVLPFC) have been found to be negatively related in response to threat cues (17).

Emotions in word and face processing: early and late cortical responses.

Proneness to hypomania / mania symptoms or depression symptoms and asymmetrical frontal cortical responses to an anger - evoking event

Not exact matches

They showed that ZIKV infection of cortical progenitors (stem cells for cortical neurons) controlling neurogenesis triggers a stress in the endoplasmic reticulum (where some of the cellular proteins and lipids are synthetized) in the embryonic brain, inducing signals in response to incorrect protein con - formation (referred to as «unfolded protein response»).

Hosoya's group is currently investigating whether other cortical layers also contain microcolumns, as well as whether this architecture is separate from or subsumes known visual cortical columns in other species — given that microcolumns show similar response properties.

As a number of neuroimaging studies show, the early onset of permanent blindness alters the response of the neurons of the visual cortex and causes a cortical compensatory re-organization in the occipital lobe.

Threatening a Rubber Hand That You Feel Is Yours Elicits a Cortical Anxiety Response.

2) During oxygen deprivation, sleep deprivation or exhaustion, the rational cortical control over emotions shuts down, as in the fight - or - flight response, enabling inner voices and imaginary companions to arise.

As cortical bone is able to remodel in response to mechanical stimuli, interspecific differences in cortical bone thickness may relate to loading during locomotion or manual behaviours during object manipulation.

Objectives: Internal bone structure, both cortical and trabecular bone, remodels in response to loading and may provide important information regarding behavior.

Recently published findings suggest that WBV increases trabecular and cortical bone mass in db / db mice (44), but these effects differ from the modest skeletal responses observed after exercise and WBV in the current study.

Regression coefficients for the effects of neural response similarity on social distance for each cortical ROI are shown overlaid on a lateral, b medial, and c ventral views of the cortical surface.

In order to illustrate how relative similarities of responses in each brain region varied as a function of social distance, inter-subject time series similarities (i.e., Pearson correlation coefficients between preprocessed fMRI response time series) were normalized (i.e., z - scored across dyads for each region) prior to averaging across dyads for each brain region and overlaying results on an inflated model of the cortical surface for each social distance category.

Mitochondrial fission is an upstream and required event for bax foci formation in response to nitric oxide in cortical neurons.

a — c Average dyadic fMRI response time series similarities overlaid on a cortical surface model (a lateral view; b medial view; c ventral view).

We used combined EEG and fMRI in 13 subjects with autism and 13 control participants and show that in autism, gamma and theta cortical activity do not engage synergistically in response to speech.

His current projects include elucidation of the cortical representation of oculomotor proprioception, using saccadic adaptation to understand the coordinate system of neurons in the lateral intraparietal area, the role of prestriate cortex in visual search, and the role of inhibition in the response of parietal neurons.

Influence of Naturally Occurring Variations in Maternal Care on Prepulse Inhibition of Acoustic Startle and the Medial Prefrontal Cortical Dopamine Response to Stress in Adult Rats

Thus, positive beliefs associated with optimism, a sense of personal control, and self - esteem appear to help people manage stress by virtue of cortical regulation of amygdala activity and consequent lower downstream neuroendocrine responses.

A large body of research suggests that psychopathy is associated with atypical responses to distress cues (e.g. facial and vocal expressions of fear and sadness), including decreased activation of the fusiform and extrastriate cortical regions, which may partly account for impaired recognition of and reduced autonomic responsiveness to expressions of fear, and impairments of empathy.

Comparison of the effects of unilateral and bilateral eye closure on cortical unit responses in kittens
