Testosterone and grasp-reflex differences in human neonates [PDF]
According to the Geschwind-Behan-Galaburda (GBG) hypothesis, prenatal testosterone (T) causes a slowing in the development of the left brain with a consequent compensatory growth in the right brain, creating a reverse organisation of the cerebral ...

Anatomical variations of dominant anastomotic veins in the superficial cortical venous system
Background: Understanding the anatomy of the anastomotic veins (AV) of the superficial cortical venous system (SCVS), viz. Superficial Sylvian vein (SSV) - also known as the superficial middle cerebral vein; vein of Labbe (VL) and vein of Trolard (VT ...

The right visual field advantage and the optimal viewing position effect: On the relation between foveal and parafoveal word recognition [PDF]
Recent developments on the optimal viewing position (OVP) effect suggest that it may be caused by the same factors that underlie the right visual field advantage in word recognition.

Regional differences in the coupling between resting cerebral blood flow and metabolism may indicate action preparedness as a default state. [PDF]
Although most functional neuroimaging studies examine task effects, interest intensifies in the "default" resting brain. Resting conditions show consistent regional activity, yet oxygen extraction fraction constancy across regions.
