Severity of effect considerations regarding the use of mutation as a toxicological endpoint for risk assessment: A report from the 8th International Workshop on Genotoxicity Testing (IWGT)

Environmental and Molecular Mutagenesis, EarlyView.
Abstract Exposure levels without appreciable human health risk may be determined by dividing a point of departure on a dose–response curve (e.g., benchmark dose) by a composite adjustment factor (AF). An “effect severity” AF (ESAF) is employed in some regulatory contexts.

, 2012
BACKGROUND: Studies of prenatal exposure to sex steroid hormones predict autistic traits in children at 18 to 24 and at 96 months of age. However, it is not known whether postnatal exposure to these hormones has a similar effect.

Diagnostic Challenges in the Neuropsychology of Epilepsy: Report of the ILAE Neuropsychology Task Force Diagnostic Methods Commission: 2021–2025

Epileptic Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Increasingly, it has been recognized that non‐seizure‐related factors influence how people with epilepsy perform on neuropsychological tests. Therefore, neuropsychologists need to recognize the constellation of factors that can contribute to the neurocognitive presentation of a person with epilepsy and consider these factors in the ...

Autistic traits, but not schizotypy, predict increased weighting of sensory information in Bayesian visual integration [PDF]

, 2018
Recent theories propose that schizophrenia/schizotypy and autistic spectrum disorder are related to impairments in Bayesian inference that is, how the brain integrates sensory information (likelihoods) with prior knowledge. However existing accounts fail

Seminar in Epileptology: Normal awake and sleep patterns, interictal abnormalities, and ictal patterns on scalp EEG

Epileptic Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract The accurate interpretation of scalp EEG remains an instrumental diagnostic component of epilepsy care. Knowledge of what constitutes normal EEG findings, non‐epileptiform abnormalities, and epileptiform patterns—both ictal and interictal—is essential for appropriate patient management.
