A comparison of dimensional models of emotion: evidence from emotions, prototypical events, autobiographical memories, and words.
(Memory, 2009-11)The intensity and valence of 30 emotion terms, 30 events typical of those emotions, and 30 autobiographical memories cued by those emotions were each rated by different groups of 40 undergraduates. A vector model gave a ... -
A comparison of temperament in nonhuman apes and human infants.
(Dev Sci, 2011-11)The adaptive behavior of primates, including humans, is often mediated by temperament. Human behavior likely differs from that of other primates in part due to temperament. In the current study we compared the reaction of ... -
Age-related differences in the neural bases of phonological and semantic processes.
(Journal of cognitive neuroscience, 2014-12)Changes in language functions during normal aging are greater for phonological compared with semantic processes. To investigate the behavioral and neural basis for these age-related differences, we used fMRI to examine younger ... -
Auditory signals evolve from hybrid- to eye-centered coordinates in the primate superior colliculus.
(Journal of neurophysiology, 2012-07)Visual and auditory spatial signals initially arise in different reference frames. It has been postulated that auditory signals are translated from a head-centered to an eye-centered frame of reference compatible with the ... -
Correlation of return to work with patient satisfaction after surgery for lumbar spondylolisthesis: an analysis of the Quality Outcomes Database.
(Neurosurgical focus, 2020-05)<h4>Objective</h4>Return to work (RTW) and satisfaction are important outcome measures after surgery for degenerative spine disease. The authors queried the prospective Quality Outcomes Database (QOD) to determine if RTW ... -
Development of hemispheric specialization for lexical pitch-accent in Japanese infants.
(J Cogn Neurosci, 2010-11)Infants' speech perception abilities change through the first year of life, from broad sensitivity to a wide range of speech contrasts to becoming more finely attuned to their native language. What remains unclear, however, ... -
Diesel exhaust particles activate the matrix-metalloproteinase-1 gene in human bronchial epithelia in a beta-arrestin-dependent manner via activation of RAS.
(Environ Health Perspect, 2009-03)BACKGROUND: Diesel exhaust particles (DEPs) are globally relevant air pollutants that exert a detrimental human health impact. However, mechanisms of damage by DEP exposure to human respiratory health and human susceptibility ... -
Differences between chest pain observation service patients and admitted "rule-out myocardial infarction" patients.
(Academic emergency medicine : official journal of the Society for Academic Emergency Medicine, 1997-07)<h4>Objective</h4>To compare and contrast the patient characteristics of ED patients at low risk for acute cardiac ischemia who were assigned to a chest pain observation service vs those admitted to a monitored inpatient ... -
Dual-energy computed tomography with advanced postimage acquisition data processing: improved determination of urinary stone composition.
(J Endourol, 2010-03)INTRODUCTION: The characterization of urinary calculi using noninvasive methods has the potential to affect clinical management. CT remains the gold standard for diagnosis of urinary calculi, but has not reliably differentiated ... -
Dust accumulation in the canopy: a potential cause of dental microwear in primates.
(Am J Phys Anthropol, 1995-06)Dental microwear researchers consider exogenous grit or dust to be an important cause of microscopic wear on primate teeth. No study to date has examined the accumulation of such abrasives on foods eaten by primates in the ... -
Early 18F-FDG-PET Response During Radiation Therapy for HPV-Related Oropharyngeal Cancer May Predict Disease Recurrence.
(International journal of radiation oncology, biology, physics, 2020-11)<h4>Purpose</h4>Early indication of treatment outcome may guide therapeutic de-escalation strategies in patients with human papillomavirus (HPV)-related oropharyngeal cancer (OPC). This study investigated the relationships ... -
Effectiveness of low-dose naltrexone in the post-detoxification treatment of opioid dependence.
(Journal of clinical psychopharmacology, 2007-10)BACKGROUND: The clinical use of naltrexone (NTX) in the treatment of opioid dependence has been limited because of poor compliance and inconsistent outcomes. In particular, the therapeutic benefit of extended treatment with ... -
Effects of adult age and blood pressure on executive function and speed of processing.
(Experimental aging research, 2010-04)Previous research has established that the effects of chronically increased blood pressure (BP) on cognition interact with adult age, but the relevant cognitive processes are not well defined. In this cross-sectional study, ... -
Evolution of postural diversity in primates as reflected by the size and shape of the medial tibial facet of the talus.
(American journal of physical anthropology, 2015-05)Comprehensive quantification of the shape and proportions of the medial tibial facet (MTF) of the talus (=astragalus) has been lacking for Primates and their closest relatives. In this study, aspects of MTF form were quantified ... -
Femoral malrotation after intramedullary nailing in obese versus non-obese patients.
(Injury, 2014-07)OBJECTIVE: Intramedullary nailing (IMN) of obese patients with femoral fractures can be difficult due to soft tissue considerations and overall body habitus. Complications including malrotation can occur and have significant ... -
Fractures in myelomeningocele.
(J Orthop Traumatol, 2010-09)BACKGROUND: In patients with myelomeningocele (MMC), a high number of fractures occur in the paralyzed extremities, affecting mobility and independence. The aims of this retrospective cross-sectional study are to determine ... -
Frontal eye field neurons assess visual stability across saccades.
(J Neurosci, 2012-02-22)The image on the retina may move because the eyes move, or because something in the visual scene moves. The brain is not fooled by this ambiguity. Even as we make saccades, we are able to detect whether visual objects remain ... -
G protein signaling and vein graft intimal hyperplasia: reduction of intimal hyperplasia in vein grafts by a Gbetagamma inhibitor suggests a major role of G protein signaling in lesion development.
(Arterioscler Thromb Vasc Biol, 1998-08)Vein grafting results in the development of intimal hyperplasia with accompanying changes in guanine nucleotide-binding (G) protein expression and function. Several serum mitogens that act through G protein-coupled receptors, ... -
Imagery and retrieval of auditory and visual information: neural correlates of successful and unsuccessful performance.
(Neuropsychologia, 2011-06)Remembering past events - or episodic retrieval - consists of several components. There is evidence that mental imagery plays an important role in retrieval and that the brain regions supporting imagery overlap with those ... -
Increased renal dopamine and acute renal adaptation to a high-phosphate diet.
(American journal of physiology. Renal physiology, 2011-05)The current experiments explore the role of dopamine in facilitating the acute increase in renal phosphate excretion in response to a high-phosphate diet. Compared with a low-phosphate (0.1%) diet for 24 h, mice ...
