Research News and Information

Definition of 'Electrooculography'

Recording of the average amplitude of the resting potential arising between the cornea and the retina in light and dark adaptation as the eyes turn a standard distance to the right and the left. The increase in potential with light adaptation is used to evaluate the condition of the retinal pigment epithelium.

The effect of gender on compensatory neuromuscular response to upper airway obstruction in normal subjects under midazolam general anesthesia.

29 Sep 2009 BACKGROUND: Upper airway patency may be compromised during sleep and anesthesia by either anatomical alterations (mechanical properties) or disturbances in the neural control (compensatory neuromuscular responses). The pathophysiology of upper ... Read more...


Sinusoidal smooth pursuit eye tracking at different stimulus frequencies: position error and velocity error before catch-up saccades in schizophrenia and in major depressive disorder.

30 Aug 2009 OBJECTIVE: The aim of the present study was to ascertain the extent of impairment of position error and velocity error processing in eye tracking dysfunction in schizophrenic and depressive patients. METHOD: A total of 21 schizophrenic and 19 ... Read more...


Automatic processing of valence differences in emotionally negative stimuli: evidence from an ERP study.

27 Aug 2009 The present study investigated the influence of attention on the human sensitivity to valence differences in emotionally negative stimuli. Event-related potentials were recorded for unattended highly negative (EN), moderately negative (MN) and ... Read more...
