Working Memory in the Prefrontal Cortex [PDF]
The prefrontal cortex participates in a variety of higher cognitive functions. The concept of working memory is now widely used to understand prefrontal functions. Neurophysiological studies have revealed that stimulus-selective delay-period activity is a neural correlate of the mechanism for temporarily maintaining information in working memory ...

In this randomized clinical trial conducted among 142 community‐dwelling older adults at high risk for falls over 12 months, a Dalcroze Eurhythmics exercise intervention (once weekly, group‐based) improved a variety of physical and cognitive/executive function outcomes compared with a multicomponent exercise intervention (twice weekly, group‐ and home ...

Graphical Abstract Paired‐samples t‐tests showed that after exercise, subjects displayed increased reading speed and fewer eye drifts, coupled with increased mean scores. This study demonstrated that running, an acute, coordinative, aerobic exercise, improves attention and increases the testing performance of the SAT reading.

Allergic rhinitis is a chronic inflammatory disease of the upper respiratory tract, which is associated with high incidence of anxiety symptom. There is evidence that medial prefrontal cortex modulates anxiety-related behaviors and receives projections ...

Increased firing irregularity as an emergent property of neural-state transition in monkey prefrontal cortex. [PDF]
Flexible behaviors are organized by complex neural networks in the prefrontal cortex. Recent studies have suggested that such networks exhibit multiple dynamical states, and can switch rapidly from one state to another.

Resource scarcity imposes challenging demands on the human cognitive system. Insufficient resources cause the scarcity mindset to affect cognitive performance, while reward enhances cognitive function.

This study introduces a novel chitosan‐based nanocarrier functionalized with a neurotropic protein for efficient siRNA delivery to neurons. The polyplexes demonstrate enhanced neuronal binding, retrograde transport, and PTEN silencing, promoting axonal outgrowth.

Considering the complications related to alcohol withdrawal syndrome (AWS) such as seizure, delirium tremens and cardiac arrhythmia, it is important to identify the risk of delirium tremens (DT) following AWS and enhance preventive strategies. We observed the characteristics of quantitative electroencephalography in patients with AWS, specifically who ...

Prefrontal cortex functional connectivity based on simultaneous record of electrical and hemodynamic responses associated with mental stress [PDF]
This paper investigates prefrontal cortex (PFC) functional connectivity based on synchronized electrical and hemodynamic responses associated with mental stress. The electrical response was based on alpha rhythmic of Electroencephalography (EEG) signals and the hemodynamic responses were based on the mean concentrations of oxygenated and deoxygenated ...

Previous studies investigated the distinct roles played by different cognitive regions and suggested that the patterns of connectivity of these regions are associated with working memory.
