A Novel Virtual Reality-Based Training Protocol for the Enhancement of the “Mental Frame Syncing” in Individuals with Alzheimer's Disease: A Development-of-Concept Trial

open access: yesFrontiers in Aging Neuroscience, 2017
A growing body of evidence suggests that people with Alzheimer's Disease (AD) show compromised spatial abilities. In addition, there exists from the earliest stages of AD a specific impairment in “mental frame syncing,” which is the ability to ...

Lighting Direction and Visual Field Modulate Perceived Intensity of Illumination

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2013
When interpreting object shape from shading the visual system exhibits a strong bias that illumination comes from above and slightly from the left. We asked whether such biases in the perceived direction of illumination might also influence its perceived

Basal Forebrain Atrophy Is Associated With Allocentric Navigation Deficits in Subjective Cognitive Decline

open access: yesFrontiers in Aging Neuroscience, 2021
Individuals with subjective cognitive decline (SCD) are at higher risk of incipient Alzheimer's disease (AD). Spatial navigation (SN) impairments in AD dementia and mild cognitive impairment patients have been well-documented; however, studies ...

Impaired Spatial Reorientation in the 3xTg-AD Mouse Model of Alzheimer's Disease. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
In early Alzheimer's disease (AD) spatial navigation is impaired; however, the precise cause of this impairment is unclear. Recent evidence suggests that getting lost is one of the first impairments to emerge in AD.

Spatial task instructions and global activation trends influence functional modularity in the cortical reach network

open access: yesNeuroImage
Humans can be instructed to ignore visual cues or use them as landmarks for aiming movements (Musa et al. 2024), but it is not known how such allocentric cues interact with egocentric target codes and general planning activity to influence cortical ...

Cntn6 deficiency impairs allocentric navigation in mice [PDF]

open access: yesBrain and Behavior, 2018
AbstractIntroductionCNTN6 is an immunoglobulin domain‐containing cell adhesion molecule that belongs to the contactin family. It is involved in the development of the nervous system. We aim to determine the effect of Cntn6 deficiency on the allocentric navigation in mice.MethodsWe recorded the travel distance and escape time of wild‐type and Cntn6 ...

Digital Therapeutics for the Egocentric and Allocentric Neglects in Patients with Brain Injury: A Mini Review

open access: yesBrain Sciences, 2023
Various therapeutic approaches have been developed for neglect. Many studies have demonstrated the effect of digital therapeutics (DTx) on neglect. However, few studies have reported the effects of DTx on egocentric and allocentric neglect.

Fish welfare in a changing world: New developments and current challenges

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract The welfare of non‐human animals is central to ethical discussions on animal use, with increasing attention to fish welfare across research, aquaria, aquaculture, and fisheries. This paper reviews current theoretical approaches to animal welfare and recent advances in defining and assessing fish welfare since the seminal paper by Huntingford ...
