Lateralized Differences in Olfactory Function
The Laryngoscope, 2007AbstractBackground: Birhinal testing of odor identification will not allow the detection of unilateral olfactory loss. The aim of the presented study was to evaluate side differences of odor identification in large groups of healthy subjects and in patients with nasal symptoms.Participants and Method: Self‐assessment of olfactory function and ...

Hypnosis and Lateralized Brain Functions
International Journal of Clinical and Experimental Hypnosis, 1990Bilateral EEG measures were obtained on 16 high hypnotizable Ss (scores of greater than 8 on the Harvard Group Scale of Hypnotic Susceptibility, Form A, Shor & E. Orne, 1962), while performing hemisphere-specific tasks during hypnosis and a no-hypnosis control condition.

Lateralization of function in rats
American Journal of Physiology-Regulatory, Integrative and Comparative Physiology, 1983Research findings during the past several years have shown that the rat's brain is lateralized for a number of behavioral functions. Neurochemical and anatomical asymmetries have also been found and, in some instances, have been associated with the behavioral asymmetries. It has also been found that extra stimulation in early life can enhance existing

Lateralization of Functions in the Animal Brain
International Journal of Neuroscience, 1981The study was performed on mice, rats, and cats. The techniques used were those of conditional reflexes and evoked potentials. The results obtained give proof of the existence of hemisphere specialization of the brain in animals, and some of its properties are described. Motor control is shown to be mainly connected with the left hemisphere.

Cerebral lateralization of function and bilingual decision processes: Is thinking lateralized?
Brain and Language, 1978Abstract Four experiments utilizing tachistoscopic presentation of verbal and spatial stimuli to visual half-fields are presented. Three experiments failed to find any cerebral lateralization effect of the type predicted from existing models of cerebral lateralization processes. One experiment found marked lateralization effects.

Tooth eruption symmetry in functional lateralities
Archives of Oral Biology, 2001Dental casts and oral photographs from a cross-sectional sample of 2092 young North Americans with detailed information on functional lateralities (eyedness, handedness and footedness) were examined to compare the proportions of symmetrical and asymmetrical eruption of the antimeric (left-right, contralateral pair) permanent teeth using a four-grade ...

Behavior Disorders and Laterality of Cerebral Function
International Journal of Neuroscience, 1985A dichotic listening test was employed to test the hypothesis that behavior disorders might have an abnormal laterality patterns of cerebral function. Eighteen behavior disorder out-patients of the psychiatry department at an university hospital and seventeen normal subjects were requested to recall dichotically presented words. The results showed that

Respiratory function in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis
Neurological Sciences, 2003The aim of this study was to examine the vital capacity (FVC) and forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV 1) in relation to the site of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) onset and the duration of the disease. Respiratory involvement is the principal cause of death in ALS patients. The study was conducted at the Department of Neurology, University School

Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and thyroid function
Journal of Neurology, 1989We elected to study thyroid status in ALS. The diagnosis of ALS was established on the basis of history, clinical and laboratory examination, electrophysiological study, and muscle biopsy. The thyroid function tests were carried out in 32 of these patients (20 men and 12 women aged 26-64 years, with a mean of 52.7)

Assessing Functional Laterality
1988A considerable amount of research evidence suggests that the cerebral hemispheres of the human brain serve independent cognitive functions. Neuropsychological assessments rely upon this concept in making inferences concerning the integrity of the brain.
