Effects of Acute Laboratory Stress on Executive Functions

Frontiers in Psychology, 2016
Recent research indicates that stress can affect executive functioning. However, previous results are mixed with respect to the direction and size of effects, especially when considering different subcomponents of executive functions.

Diffusion‐based size determination of solute particles: a method adapted for postsynaptic proteins

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
We present a diffusion‐based approach for measuring the size of macromolecules and their complexes, and demonstrate its use on postsynaptic proteins. The method requires fluorescein‐labelled protein samples, a microfluidic device that maintains laminar flow for said samples, a microscope recording the emitted fluorescent signals, and an analytic ...

Cognitive dysfunction improves in systemic lupus erythematosus: Results of a 10 years prospective study [PDF]

, 2018
Objective Cognitive impairment (CI) has been described in 3–80% of Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) patients but only short-term studies evaluated its over-time changes, suggesting that CI is usually a stable finding. We aimed at evaluating the changes

Serum Neurofilament Light Chain in Multiple Sclerosis: Superiority of Age‐ and BMI‐Corrected Z Scores/Percentiles Over Absolute Cutoff Values for Prediction of Treatment Response

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Prognostication of disease course and prediction of treatment response in multiple sclerosis is an unmet need. We compared the performance of serum neurofilament light chain Z scores (age‐ and BMI‐adjusted) with absolute concentrations for the prediction of response to disease‐modifying therapy.

Executive Functions in the Mental Set Formation Process: Shifting, Updating, Inhibition

Экспериментальная психология
This study examined the mechanisms of mental set (Einstellung effect) formation. Earlier it was shown that executive functions are a system-forming element in the structure of the formation mental set mechanisms. Executive functions (shifting,

The rs10191329 Risk Allele Is Associated With Pronounced Retinal Layer Atrophy in Multiple Sclerosis

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To investigate whether the rs10191329 risk allele in the DYSF–ZNF638 locus, which is implicated in central nervous system resilience rather than immune‐mediated pathology, is associated with retinal layer thinning, a biomarker of neuroaxonal damage in relapsing multiple sclerosis (RMS). Methods From a prospective observational study,

Bilateral versus Unilateral Training With Rhythmic Auditory Cueing in Stroke Rehabilitation: Effects on Upper Limb Function and Interhemispheric Inhibition

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Stroke is a leading cause of long‐term disability in adults, with upper limb hemiparesis being a common impairment. Traditional training is mostly aimed at paralyzed limbs, but the effect of bilateral training is still unclear.

Modulation of higher-order olfaction components on executive functions in humans [PDF]

, 2017
The prefrontal (PFC) and orbitofrontal cortex (OFC) appear to be associated with both exec- utive functions and olfaction. However, there is little data relating olfactory processing and executive functions in humans. The present study aimed at exploring

Long‐Term Evaluation of Givinostat in Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy, and Natural History Comparisons

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives This ongoing, open‐label extension study is evaluating the long‐term safety, tolerability, and efficacy of givinostat, a Class I and II histone deacetylase inhibitor, in patients with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD). Methods The recruited patients completed one of two prior clinical studies (one Phase 2 and one Phase 3 [EPIDYS ...
