The cognitive demands of second order manual control: Applications of the event related brain potential [PDF]

, 1981
Three experiments are described in which tracking difficulty is varied in the presence of a covert tone discrimination task. Event related brain potentials (ERPs) elicited by the tones are employed as an index of the resource demands of tracking. The ERP

Developmental programmes drive cellular plasticity, disease progression and therapy resistance in lung adenocarcinoma

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This study shows that lung adenocarcinomas exploit developmental branching morphogenesis to acquire a therapy resistant basal‐like tumour cell state. This process was found to be regulated by combined TP53 loss‐of‐function and type‐I interferon signalling, identifying a novel axis for biomarker and therapeutic target discovery.

The Repetitive Mechanical Tactile Stimulus Intervention Effects Depend on Input Methods

Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2020
Elderly and stroke patients often have low spatial two-point discrimination function. The intervention effect of repetitive mechanical tactile stimulation has been shown to improve the spatial two-point discrimination function.

Patient therapy outcome modeling in cancer organoids is improved by cancer‐associated fibroblasts and organoid assembly convolution

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Patient‐derived organoids (PDOs) from pancreatic, colorectal, and gastric cancers were used to evaluate standard and experimental therapies. Incorporating cancer‐associated fibroblasts (CAFs) into organoid cultures improved patient therapy outcome prediction.

5-HT2a receptor in mPFC influences context-guided reconsolidation of object memory in perirhinal cortex [PDF]

, 2018
Context-dependent memories may guide adaptive behavior relaying in previous experience while updating stored information through reconsolidation. Retrieval can be triggered by partial and shared cues.

Raman‐based label‐free microscopic analysis of the pancreas in living zebrafish larvae

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Forward stimulated Raman scattering (F‐SRS) and epi coherent anti‐Stokes Raman scattering (E‐CARS) allow label‐free discrimination of distinct subcellular structures in the pancreas of living zebrafish larvae. Given the straightforward applicability, we anticipate broad implementation of Raman microscopy in other organs and across various biomedical ...

Validity of Erythrocyte Indices in Differentiation between Iron Deficiency Anemia and β-Thalassemia Trait in Children

The Journal of Pediatric Academy
Iron deficiency anemia (IDA) and β-thalassemia trait (BTT) are the most common causes of hypochromic microcytic anemia (HMA). Various erythrocyte indices that may help in the initial discrimination between IDA and BTT have been reported, but data ...
