In Vivo Mapping of Catecholaminergic Loss and Iron Deposition in Huntington's Disease

Movement Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Background The pathophysiology of Huntington's disease (HD) remains obscure. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) can reveal in vivo molecular changes related to disease pathology. Objectives To investigate catecholaminergic neuronal integrity and subcortical brain iron accumulation in HD employing neuromelanin‐sensitive MRI, and quantitative ...

An Open‐Label Phase 1b Study of the Safety, Pharmacokinetics, Pharmacodynamics, and Clinical Activity of ANX005 in Patients with Huntington's Disease

Movement Disorders, EarlyView.
Complement activation is implicated in Huntington's disease; ANX005 is a potent inhibitor of component C1q. ANX005 exhibited a generally manageable safety profile with rapid reduction in C1q in the cerebrospinal fluid. Functional ability on composite Unified Huntington's Disease Rating Scale and total functional capacity was maintained, with potential ...

A New interference score for the Stroop test [PDF]

Archives of Clinical Neuropsychology, 2004
A New interference calculation method for the Stroop test was developed based upon a neuropsychological model of the suppression of word reading in favor of color naming. Polynomial regression equations show a significant relationship between word reading and the New interference score that closely fits the underlying prediction of the New model, while

Perinatal women dominantly protect—rather than submissively cede—resources when interacting with threatening‐looking others

British Journal of Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract When competing for resources, people appear particularly sensitive to social cues of threat, tending to submissively cede resources to more (vs. less) threatening‐looking others. This tendency appears especially pronounced among those that are physically weaker and thus more vulnerable to harm.

The effectiveness of implementation intentions in children: A systematic review and meta‐analysis

British Journal of Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract Self‐regulation abilities in childhood are important for long‐term academic achievement and healthy development. As self‐regulatory abilities are still developing, ‘simple’ interventions are needed to foster self‐regulation. Implementation intentions are simple plans that could promote goal achievement in children.

Flight experience and executive functions predict unlike professional pilots who are limited by the FAA's age rule, no age limit is defined in general aviation (GA) [PDF]

, 2010
Unlike professional pilots who are limited by the FAA's age rule, no age limit is defined in general aviation (GA). Some studies revealed significant aging issues on accident rates but these results are criticized.
