Mini social cognition and emotional assessment: Diagnostic performance and neural correlates in behavioural‐variant frontotemporal dementia

open access: yesJournal of Neuropsychology, EarlyView.
Abstract We aimed at validating the Mini Social Cognition and Emotional Assessment (Mini‐SEA) in a German cohort of mildly impaired behavioural‐variant frontotemporal dementia (bvFTD) patients and healthy controls. The Mini‐SEA comprises the Facial Emotion Recognition Test (FERT) and the Faux Pas Test (FPT) measuring Theory of Mind (ToM) abilities in ...

A Selective Effect of Partial Sleep Deprivation on Metaphor Generation Among Healthy Young Adults

open access: yesJournal of Sleep Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Partial sleep deprivation (SD), a common phenomenon in modern life, is known to impair cognitive and linguistic processes. This study investigates its selective effect on metaphor generation, differentiating between conventional and novel metaphors.

Valproic acid for treatment of traumatic brain injury: Study protocol for the VIBRANT prospective randomized trial

open access: yesTransfusion, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Traumatic brain injury (TBI) carries significant mortality and morbidity in civilian and military populations. Current treatment guidelines for TBI are primarily supportive, and no pharmacological agent exists to attenuate the progression of brain injury.

Robust high-accuracy high-speed continuous-time CMOS current comparator [PDF]

open access: yes, 1997
The authors present a CMOS current comparator which employs nonlinear negative feedback to obtain high-accuracy (down to 1.5pA) and high-speed for low input currents (8ns at 50nA). The new structure features a speed improvement of more than two orders of

Fmr1 knockout disrupts multiple intrinsic properties via reduced HCN channel activity in mediodorsal thalamocortical neurons

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract The neurodevelopmental disorder fragile X syndrome (FXS) results from hypermethylation of the FMR1 gene, which prevents production of the FMRP protein. FMRP modulates the expression and function of a variety of proteins, including voltage‐gated ion channels, such as hyperpolarization‐activated and cyclic nucleotide‐gated (HCN) channels, which ...

Sex differences in the prefrontal cortex and muscle oxygenation during exercise until exhaustion in endurance‐trained individuals

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend During cardiopulmonary exercise testing, the decline in oxygenation in the prefrontal cortex of women is striking. This crucial brain area is directly involved in planning motor tasks. The decline is particularly pronounced at higher exercise intensities, especially after reaching the respiratory compensation point or anaerobic ...
