Functional Neuroimaging of Cognition
Seminars in Neurology, 2000Neuroimaging has, in many respects, revolutionized the study of behavioral neurology and cognitive neuroscience. Early studies of brain-behavior relationships relied on a precise neurological examination as the basis for hypothesizing the site of brain damage that was responsible for a given behavioral syndrome.

Nutrition and cognitive function
Brain and Development, 1997The work of the Medical Research Council Dunn Nutrition Unit, Cambridge, on the influence of early diet on the development of preterm infants is reviewed. Then further consideration is given to the implication of the findings. Malnutrition during a sensitive period may result in disease in adult life, and studies strongly suggest the development of the

Hypertension and cognitive function
Journal of Clinical Psychology in Medical Settings, 1995Previous research indicates that blood pressure may impact a variety of cognitive functions, including short-term memory, abstract reasoning, visual-spatial abilities, and attention (Boller, Vrtunski, Mack, & Kim, 1977; Elias, Robbins, Schultz, & Pierce, 1990; Franceschi, Tancredi, Smirne, Mercinelli, & Canal, 1982; Mazzucchiet al., 1986).

Current Opinion in Neurobiology, 1995
Stress affects cognition in a number of ways, acting rapidly via catecholamines and more slowly via glucocorticoids. Catecholamine actions involve beta adrenergic receptors and also availability of glucose, whereas glucocorticoids biphasically modulate synaptic plasticity over hours and also produce longer-term changes in dendritic structure that last ...

Homocysteine and Cognitive Function
Seminars in Vascular Medicine, 2005The prevention and treatment of age-related cognitive impairment and dementia is one of the greatest and most elusive challenges of our time. The prevalence of dementia increases exponentially with age, as does the prevalence of those with micronutrient deficiency.

Cognitive Functions of the Fetus
Ultraschall in der Medizin - European Journal of Ultrasound, 2018AbstractThe human brain is intricately designed to execute cognitive functions, such as perception, attention, action, memory and learning. The complete nervous system is active during prenatal development and the aim of this review is to present data on fetal cognitive functions.

Sensory and Cognitive Functions
1997New neuroimaging studies provide striking evidence that the cerebellum is intensely and selectively active during sensory and cognitive tasks, even in the absence of explicit or implicit motor behavior. Focal activity is observed in the lateral cerebellar hemispheres during the processing of auditory, visual, cutaneous, spatial, and tactile information,
