The Relationship Between Inflammation and Central Nervous System in Multiple Sclerosis
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Aim Multiple sclerosis is an autoimmune demyelination disease that is seen especially in the young population and has a progressive course, causing motor, sensory, and cognitive deficits. In the literature, the pathogenesis of MS disease and the interconnection between the immune and central nervous system in the disease have not been fully ...

Activation in a frontoparietal cortical network underlies individual differences in the performance of an embedded figures task. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2011 The Embedded Figures Test (EFT) requires observers to search for a simple geometric shape hidden inside a more complex figure. Surprisingly, performance in the EFT is negatively correlated with susceptibility to illusions of spatial orientation, such as ...

The Correlative Analysis of Amplitude-temporal Characteristics of Evoked Potentials of Brain Cortex in Sportsmen [PDF]
, 2017 The article considers the correlative analysis of amplitude-temporal characteristics of evoked potentials of brain cortex in sportsmen of playing kinds of sport and athletes at perception and processing of significant information “What” and “Where” in ...

Visual Perception: Ambiguity Involving Parietal Cortex [PDF]
Current Biology, 2010 Our brain is constantly interpreting ambiguous sensory input to deliver a stable perceptual representation of the environment. Two new studies suggest that superior parietal cortex plays a causal role in resolving perceptual ambiguity. Ironically, their results are somewhat ambiguous as to what that role might be.

Visual grouping in human parietal cortex [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2007 To efficiently extract visual information from complex visual scenes to guide behavior and thought, visual input needs to be organized into discrete units that can be selectively attended and processed. One important such selection unit is visual objects.

Higher Amyloid and Tau Burden Is Associated With Faster Decline on a Digital Cognitive Test
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective A 2‐min digital clock‐drawing test (DCTclock) captures more granular features of the clock‐drawing process than the pencil‐and‐paper clock‐drawing test, revealing more subtle deficits at the preclinical stage of Alzheimer's disease (AD). A previous cross‐sectional study demonstrated that worse DCTclock performance was associated with

Autosomal Recessive Spastic Ataxia of Charlevoix‐Saguenay in Two Half‐Siblings
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Autosomal recessive spastic ataxia of Charlevoix‐Saguenay (ARSACS) is caused by biallelic pathogenic variants in the SACS gene. We report the clinical, radiologic and neurophysiologic features of a pair of half‐siblings who presented with progressive cerebellar ataxia, peripheral neuropathy and upper motor neuron signs.

Attentional load and sensory competition in human vision: Modulation of fMRI responses by load fixation during task-irrelevant stimulation in the peripheral visual field. [PDF]
, 2005 Perceptual suppression of distractors may depend on both endogenous and exogenous factors, such as attentional load of the current task and sensory competition among simultaneous stimuli, respectively. We used functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI)
