Precise surgical excision of brain tumors depends on the surgeon’s ability to accurately differentiate tumors from healthy brain tissues. We have developed an automated system integrated with biochips…
Precision Aging® is a novel concept that we have recently employed to describe how the model of precision medicine can be used to understand and define the multivariate risks that drive age-related co…
Epidemiological evidence suggests that adverse environmental factors in the nasal cavity may increase the risk for neuropsychiatric diseases. For instance, air pollution and nasal viral infection have…
Small amounts of penicillin were used to create a seizure focus in the primary visual cortex (area 17), extrastriate cortex (area 18 and 18a), and neighboring somatosensory and temporal areas in rats.…
Robust self-stimulation can be obtained from electrodes implanted in the medial forebrain bundle. We used in-vivo voltammetry to monitor stimulated dopamine release in the mouse nucleus accumbens duri…
Radioimmunoassay (RIA), radioreceptor assay and chromatography were used to study the occurrence of calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) in a primitive teleost, the eel, Anguilla anguilla. Immunolog…
Single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) with 99mTc-d,l-hexamethylpropyleneamine oxime (99mTc-d,l-HMPAO) was used to determine global and regional CBF in 53 healthy subjects aged 21-83 years…
In sentence comprehension research, the case system, which is one of the subsystems of the language processing system, has been assumed to play a crucial role in signifying relationships in sentences …
OBJECTIVE: To determine regional cerebral water content in vivo by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) after the administration of 7.5% saline in brain-lesioned rabbits.DESIGN: Randomized, controlled, in…
The globus pallidus has been identified as a site of action for the motor effects of cannabinoids. A previous report from this laboratory demonstrated that systemic administration of the potent and se…
We explored one of the unusual predictions of the concept of back-coupling within the theoretical scheme of the control of posture and movement with setting referent coordinates for the effectors. Thi…
This paper describes a computer modeling study of the generation of 10 Hz oscillations in the electrical activity of guinea pig thalamic neurons in vitro. The computer model was based on experimental …
OBJECTIVE: We recently reported that U.S. mortality rates for motor neuron disease (MND) at the level of the state are associated with well water use. However, data at the state level may not accurate…
We tested experimentally whether zebra finch feathers can be used as a biomonitor for lead pollution, and we examined whether lead exposure influences the accumulation of zinc into feathers. Two group…
The effect of a single epidural injection of ropivacaine on the motor and sensory function controlled from the L5/S1 level was investigated in 28 male volunteers. Concentrations of 1%, 0.75%, or 0.5% …
Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a leading cause of death and disability in the USA. To help understand and better predict TBI, researchers have developed complex finite element (FE) models of the head…
There is broad agreement that the awake human ventilatory response to a moderate inspiratory load consists of a prolongation of inspiratory time (T(I)) with a maintenance of tidal volume (V(T)) and en…
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Gait disturbances in the elderly are disabling and a major public health issue but are poorly understood. In this multimodal MR imaging study, we used 2 voxel-based analysis me…
In a familiar city, people can recall scene views (e.g., a particular street corner scene) they could encounter again in the future. Complex objects with multiple features are represented by multiple …
Recent data showed that neonatal ventral hippocampus (VH) lesions, an approach used to model schizophrenia symptoms in rodents, produce premature deficits of working memory believed to be associated w…
