Knowledge acquisition in science and the blurred boundary between perception and cognition
Abstract This paper provides a critical and detailed study of what researchers in the fields of contemporary cognition and neuroscience have revealed about the blurred boundary between perception and cognition. We set out the arguments with a view to what researchers and teachers should now consider regarding the subtleties of their interrelationship ...

ABSTRACT This study investigated the flavonoid compounds and their biological activities in methanol extracts obtained from root, stem, leaf, and flower parts of Amaranthus retroflexus L. Flavonoids in the extracts were characterized for the first time by liquid chromatography–highresolution mass spectrometry (LC–HRMS), and a total of eight flavonoid ...

Mammalian Tolerance to Amino Acid Heterochirality
Organisms use amino acids predominantly in l‐configuration. On the other hand, a series of studies show that a variety of d‐amino acids also occur in mammals and amino acid homochirality is not complete. Mammals de novo synthesize most amino acids with l‐configuration, but serine and aspartate are converted from l‐ to d‐configuration by endogenous ...

“Ears of the Lynx” Sign on Brain MRI in Siblings With Spastic Paraplegia: A Case Report
ABSTRACT Background Hereditary spastic paraplegia (HSP) is a rare, clinically and genetically heterogenous condition that selectively affects the terminal segment of the descending corticospinal tract of the lumbar spine area, causing lower extremity spastic weakness with or without associated complex neurological symptoms.

Abstract Background Previous experiments inducing leakage of embryonic cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) suggest the necessity of intraventricular CSF pressure (PCSF) for brain morphogenesis. Nevertheless, how embryonic PCSF occurs is unclear, especially in utero. Results Using a Landis water manometer, we measured PCSF in fetal mice isolated from the amniotic

Clinical and anatomical characteristics of basal temporal seizures: A systematic review
Abstract This review aimed to characterize the clinical semiology and anatomical correlates of seizures originating in the basal temporal region, an underrecognized epilepsy subtype, and to identify features that distinguish it from other forms of temporal lobe epilepsies (TLE).

Abstract Startle‐induced seizure is a rare type of reflex seizure triggered by unexpected sensory stimuli that often occurs in children with early acquired cerebral lesions or brain malformations. We report a unique case of adult‐onset epilepsy with startle‐induced seizures.

Features of cognitive dysfunction in late‐onset temporal lobe epilepsy
Abstract Objective A global increase in the aging population has resulted in more patients with late‐onset epilepsy. Late‐onset temporal lobe epilepsy (LOTLE) is one of the most common types of late‐onset epilepsy and is frequently accompanied by memory impairments.

Creativity and its link to epilepsy
Abstract Creative thinking represents one of our highest‐order cognitive processes, involving multiple cortical structures and an intricate interplay between several cortical and subcortical networks. It results in novel ideas that translate to useful products or concepts. The evolutionary purpose of creativity is therefore apparent, as it advances our

Inherited metabolic epilepsies–established diseases, new approaches
Abstract Inherited metabolic epilepsies (IMEs) represent the inherited metabolic disorders (IMDs) in which epilepsy is a prevailing component, often determining other neurodevelopmental outcomes associated with the disorder. The different metabolic pathways affected by individual IMEs are the basis of their rarity and heterogeneity.
