Amyloid‐β (Aβ) deposition plays a crucial role in the occurrence and development of Alzheimer’s disease (AD), and impaired Aβ clearance is the leading cause of Aβ deposition. Recently, studies have found that the glymphatic system performs similar functions to the peripheral lymphatic system.

EEG Theta Dynamics within Frontal and Parietal Cortices for Error Processing during Reaching Movements in a Prism Adaptation Study Altering Visuo-Motor Predictive Planning. [PDF]
Modulation of frontal midline theta (fmθ) is observed during error commission, but little is known about the role of theta oscillations in correcting motor behaviours.

Sex-related differences in motor learning and performance
Gender differences have been shown across many domains, and motor skills are no exception. One of the most robust findings is a significant sex difference in throwing accuracy, which reflects the advantage of men in targeting abilities.

Bacterial Isolates From Orthopedic Posttraumatic Surgical Infections in Northern Ghana: ES<i>β</i>L Detection and Analysis of Antimicrobial Resistance Trends. [PDF]
Background: Surgical site infections (SSIs) remain a critical challenge globally and are aggravated by rising antimicrobial resistance (AMR). Here, we evaluated the bacterial profile, AMR patterns, and ESβL characterization of isolates from patients diagnosed with SSI after trauma orthopedic surgery.

Transfer of Visuomotor Adaptation to Unpractised Hands and Sensory Modalities [PDF]
A recent model (Bock, 2013) predicts that sensorimotor adaptation, achieved while pointing at visual targets, will transfer fully to acoustic targets.

Bisecting real and fake body parts: effects of prism adaptation after right brain damage
The representation of body parts holds a special status in the brain, due to their prototypical shape and the contribution of multisensory (visual and somatosensory-proprioceptive) information.

Prism Adaptation and Aftereffect: Specifying the Properties of a Procedural Memory System [PDF]
Prism adaptation, a form of procedural learning, is a phenomenon in which the motor system adapts to new visuospatial coordinates imposed by prisms that displace the visual field. Once the prisms are withdrawn, the degree and strength of the adaptation can be measured by the spatial deviation of the motor actions in the direction opposite to the visual

Mirror Adaptation in Sensory-Motor Simultaneity [PDF]
Background: When one watches a sports game, one may feel her/his own muscles moving in synchrony with the player's. Such parallels between observed actions of others and one's own has been well supported in the latest progress in neuroscience, and ...

Multisensory and Modality-Specific Influences on Adaptation to Optical Prisms
Visuo-motor adaptation to optical prisms displacing the visual scene (prism adaptation, PA) is a method used for investigating visuo-motor plasticity in healthy individuals and, in clinical settings, for the rehabilitation of unilateral spatial neglect ...
