Presurgical language fMRI: Mapping of six critical regions. [PDF]
Language mapping is a key goal in neurosurgical planning. fMRI mapping typically proceeds with a focus on Broca's and Wernicke's areas, although multiple other language-critical areas are now well-known.

Urbanicity and cognitive functioning in later life
AbstractIntroductionPrior research has shown disparities in cognitive functioning across the rural–urban continuum. We examine individual‐ and contextual‐level factors to understand how and why urbanicity shapes cognitive functioning across older adulthood.MethodsUsing a nationally representative sample from 1996 to 2016 waves of the Health and ...

Functional Biomarkers for Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis [PDF]
The clinical diagnosis of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) relies on determination of progressive dysfunction of both cortical as well as spinal and bulbar motor neurons. However, the variable mix of upper and lower motor neuron signs result in the clinical heterogeneity of patients with ALS, resulting frequently in delay of diagnosis as well as ...

Laterality of Eye Use by Bottlenose (Tursiops truncatus) and Rough-toothed (Steno bredanensis) Dolphins While Viewing Predictable and Unpredictable Stimuli [PDF]
Laterality of eye use has been increasingly studied in cetaceans. Research supports that many cetacean species keep prey on the right side while feeding and preferentially view unfamiliar objects with the right eye.

Hemispheric lateralization of functions related to emotion [PDF]
We have reviewed the evidence that processes and functions related to perception and expression of emotions are represented asymmetrically in the cerebral hemispheres. The literature describes three possible aspects of emotional lateralization: that emotions are better recognized by the right hemisphere; that control of emotional expression and related

Interhemispheric transfer and the processing of foveally presented stimuli [PDF]
A review of the literature shows that the LVF and the RVF do not overlap. This means that foveal representations of words are effectively split and that interhemispheric communication is needed to recognise centrally presented ...

Correlation between amygdala BOLD activity and frontal EEG asymmetry during real-time fMRI neurofeedback training in patients with depression [PDF]
Real-time fMRI neurofeedback (rtfMRI-nf) is an emerging approach for studies and novel treatments of major depressive disorder (MDD). EEG performed simultaneously with an rtfMRI-nf procedure allows an independent evaluation of rtfMRI-nf brain modulation ...

Identification of PKD1L1 Gene Variants in Children with the Biliary Atresia Splenic Malformation Syndrome [PDF]
Biliary atresia (BA) is the most common cause of end‐stage liver disease in children and the primary indication for pediatric liver transplantation, yet underlying etiologies remain unknown.

Lateralized Functions in the Dog Brain [PDF]
Understanding the complementary specialisation of the canine brain has been the subject of increasing scientific study over the last 10 years, chiefly due to the impact of cerebral lateralization on dog behaviour. In particular, behavioural asymmetries, which directly reflect different activation of the two sides of the dog brain, have been reported at

Electrophysiological evidence for changes in attentional orienting and selection in functional somatic symptoms [PDF]
Neurophysiology Objective: We investigated changes in attention mechanisms in people who report a high number of somatic symptoms which cannot be associated with a physical cause.
