Impaired recognition of happy, sad and neutral expressions in schizophrenia is emotion, but not valence, specific and context dependent.

16 Aug 2009 It is not clear whether the deficits in emotion perception in schizophrenia are distinct from cognitive impairments or affect some emotions more than others. We tested the hypothesis that the emotion perception deficit in schizophrenia is valence ...

[Musculosceletal reconstruction in bilateral forearm transplantation]

15 Aug 2009 BACKGROUND: Improvement of motor function of the upper extremity was investigated in a patient following bilateral forearm transplantation. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Following an electric shock injury with amputation of both forearms at the proximal ...

Medial temporal lobe activity can distinguish between old and new stimuli independently of overt behavioral choice.

15 Aug 2009 We collected fMRI data and confidence ratings as participants performed a recognition memory task that intermixed recently studied words and new (non-studied) words. We first replicated a typical finding from such studies; namely, increasing ...

Suppression of human cortico-motoneuronal excitability during the Stop-signal task.

13 Aug 2009 OBJECTIVE: To investigate whether motor suppression is an active process, and to clarify its somatotopic organization, we investigated cortico-motoneuronal excitability using transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) during the Stop-signal task. ...

[Neurophysiological investigations of information processing in the somato-sensory system]

12 Aug 2009 The ability of the human hand to perform complex sensorimotor tasks such as tactile exploration and grasping is based on 1. exact encoding of somatosensory information by cutaneous mechanoreceptors, 2. elaborated processing of afferent signals in ...

Long-term maintenance of retest learning in young old and oldest old adults.

11 Aug 2009 This study examined the maintenance of retest learning benefits in young old and oldest old adults over an 8-month period in 3 cognitive abilities: reasoning, perceptual-motor speed, and visual attention. Twenty-four young old (aged 70-79 years, M = ...

Motor learning is optimally tuned to the properties of motor noise.

11 Aug 2009 In motor learning, our brain uses movement errors to adjust planning of future movements. This process has traditionally been studied by examining how motor planning is adjusted in response to visuomotor or dynamic perturbations. Here, I show that ...

Effects of task complexity and sensory conflict on goal-directed movement.

10 Aug 2009 Interactions between brain regions are necessary for compound activities to take place. Accordingly, evaluating hemispheric information processing during skilled behaviour provides valuable knowledge about brain regulation. To this end, the present ...

[The relationship between emotional distress, cognitive performance and health - related quality of life in patients with hepatitis C prior to antiviral treatment]

10 Aug 2009 Recent epidemiologic studies suggest that more than 175 million individuals are infected with hepatitis C virus (HCV) worldwide. In the past few years, outcome studies in chronic HCV patients are no longer focusing solely on traditional end points ...

Is the rostro-caudal axis of the frontal lobe hierarchical?

10 Aug 2009 The frontal lobes in the brain are a component of the cerebral system that supports goal-directed behaviour. However, their functional organization remains controversial. Recent studies have reported rostro-caudal distinctions in frontal cortex ...
