Functional sensibility assessment. Part I: develop a reliable apparatus to assess momentary pinch force control.

30 Jul 2009 A precise magnitude and timing control of pinch performance is based on accurate feed-forward and feedback control mechanisms. Ratio of peak pinch force and maximum load force during a functional performance is a sensitive parameter to reflect the ...

Cognitive bias to symptom and obsessive belief threat cues in obsessive-compulsive disorder.

30 Jul 2009 The current study examined the extent to which patients with obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD) demonstrate cognitive biases to OCD symptom or inflated responsibility threat cues. Participants with either primary contamination-washing or ...

Continuous performance test in drug-naïve patients with obsessive-compulsive disorder: a case-controlled study.

29 Jul 2009 Twenty drug-naïve patients with obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) were compared with matched controls on their performance of the Continuous Performance Test (CPT). There was no difference on any measure of the CPT in the two groups. Higher ...

Hidden cognitive states revealed in choice reaching tasks.

29 Jul 2009 Perceptual and cognitive processes have largely been inferred based on reaction times and accuracies obtained from discrete responses. However, discrete responses are unlikely to capture dynamic internal processes, occurring in parallel, and ...

[Usage of drugs with potential adverse effects on cognition in a memory-clinic]

28 Jul 2009 Cognitive decline is a frequent clinical symptom in elderly patients. In particular, memory disturbances are an early sign and a risk factor for subsequent development of neurodegenerative dementia. At the same time, elderly patients often receive ...

Learning substrates in the primate prefrontal cortex and striatum: sustained activity related to successful actions.

28 Jul 2009 Learning from experience requires knowing whether a past action resulted in a desired outcome. The prefrontal cortex and basal ganglia are thought to play key roles in such learning of arbitrary stimulus-response associations. Previous studies have ...

Spatio-temporal EEG waves in first episode schizophrenia.

28 Jul 2009 OBJECTIVE: Schizophrenia is characterized by a deficit in context processing, with physiological correlates of hypofrontality and reduced amplitude P3b event-related potentials. We hypothesized an additional physiological correlate: differences in ...

The middle range of the number line orients attention to the left side of visual space.

28 Jul 2009 Mental representation of numbers is believed to be spatial in nature, with small numbers occupying the left and large numbers the right side of a putative mental number line. Consistent with this, presentation of numbers from the low and high ends ...

Cerebral tumor necrosis factor alpha expression and long-term neurocognitive performance after cardiopulmonary bypass in rats.

27 Jul 2009 OBJECTIVE: Cerebral inflammatory reaction is discussed as a contributor to adverse cerebral outcome after cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass. This study was designed to determine the effect of cardiopulmonary bypass on both cerebral ...

Implementation of spatial transformation rules for goal-directed reaching via gain modulation in monkey parietal and premotor cortex.

27 Jul 2009 Planning goal-directed movements requires the combination of visuospatial with abstract contextual information. Our sensory environment constrains possible movements to a certain extent. However, contextual information guides proper choice of action ...
