A 17-Year-Old Girl With Unilateral Headache and Double Vision.
(Journal of investigative medicine high impact case reports, 2019-01)Tolosa-Hunt syndrome is characterized by a painful ophthalmoplegia secondary to a granulomatous inflammation in or adjacent to the cavernous sinus. Magnetic resonance imaging will show enhancement of the cavernous sinus ... -
A case of frontal neuropsychological and neuroimaging signs following multiple primary-blast exposure.
(Neurocase, 2012-06)Blast-related traumatic brain injury (TBI) from the Afghanistan and Iraq wars represents a significant medical concern for troops and veterans. To better understand the consequences of primary-blast injury in humans, we ... -
A neural biomarker of psychological vulnerability to future life stress.
(Neuron, 2015-02-04)We all experience a host of common life stressors such as the death of a family member, medical illness, and financial uncertainty. While most of us are resilient to such stressors, continuing to function normally, for a ... -
Accelerating Brain DTI and GYN MRI Studies Using Neural Network
(2021)There always exists a demand to accelerate the time-consuming MRI acquisition process. Many methods have been proposed to achieve this goal, including deep learning method which appears to be a robust tool compared ... -
Acetabular Paralabral Cyst: An Unusual Cause of Lower Extremity Pain and Paresthesia.
(J Orthop Sports Phys Ther, 2016-01) -
Activation in mesolimbic and visuospatial neural circuits elicited by smoking cues: evidence from functional magnetic resonance imaging.
(Am J Psychiatry, 2002-06)OBJECTIVE: The authors sought to increase understanding of the brain mechanisms involved in cigarette addiction by identifying neural substrates modulated by visual smoking cues in nicotine-deprived smokers. METHOD: Event-related ... -
Activity of neurons in monkey globus pallidus during oculomotor behavior compared with that in substantia nigra pars reticulata.
(J Neurophysiol, 2010-04)The basal ganglia are a subcortical assembly of nuclei involved in many aspects of behavior. Three of the nuclei have high firing rates and inhibitory influences: the substantia nigra pars reticulata (SNr), globus pallidus ... -
Adult age differences in frontostriatal representation of prediction error but not reward outcome.
(Cogn Affect Behav Neurosci, 2014-06)Emerging evidence from decision neuroscience suggests that although younger and older adults show similar frontostriatal representations of reward magnitude, older adults often show deficits in feedback-driven reinforcement ... -
Adult age differences in functional connectivity during executive control.
(Neuroimage, 2010-08-15)Task switching requires executive control processes that undergo age-related decline. Previous neuroimaging studies have identified age-related differences in brain activation associated with global switching effects (dual-task ... -
Age mediation of frontoparietal activation during visual feature search.
(Neuroimage, 2014-11-15)Activation of frontal and parietal brain regions is associated with attentional control during visual search. We used fMRI to characterize age-related differences in frontoparietal activation in a highly efficient feature ... -
Age-related differences in resolving semantic and phonological competition during receptive language tasks.
(Neuropsychologia, 2016-12)Receptive language (e.g., reading) is largely preserved in the aging brain, and semantic processes in particular may continue to develop throughout the lifespan. We investigated the neural underpinnings of phonological and ... -
Age-related differences in the neural bases of phonological and semantic processes in the context of task-irrelevant information.
(Cognitive, affective & behavioral neuroscience, 2019-08)As we age we have increasing difficulty with phonological aspects of language production. Yet semantic processes are largely stable across the life span. This suggests a fundamental difference in the cognitive and potentially ... -
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 ... -
Age-related effects on the neural correlates of autobiographical memory retrieval.
(Neurobiol Aging, 2012-07)Older adults recall less episodically rich autobiographical memories (AM), however, the neural basis of this effect is not clear. Using functional MRI, we examined the effects of age during search and elaboration phases ... -
Allogeneic Umbilical Cord Blood Infusion for Adults with Ischemic Stroke: Clinical Outcomes from a Phase I Safety Study.
(Stem cells translational medicine, 2018-07)Stroke is a major cause of death and long-term disability, affecting one in six people worldwide. The only currently available approved pharmacological treatment for ischemic stroke is tissue plasminogen activator; however, ... -
Altered diffusion tensor imaging measurements in aged transgenic Huntington disease rats.
(Brain Struct Funct, 2013-05)Rodent models of Huntington disease (HD) are valuable tools for investigating HD pathophysiology and evaluating new therapeutic approaches. Non-invasive characterization of HD-related phenotype changes is important for monitoring ... -
Altered resting-state functional connectivity of basolateral and centromedial amygdala complexes in posttraumatic stress disorder.
(Neuropsychopharmacology, 2014-01)The amygdala is a major structure that orchestrates defensive reactions to environmental threats and is implicated in hypervigilance and symptoms of heightened arousal in posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). The basolateral ... -
Amygdala volume changes in posttraumatic stress disorder in a large case-controlled veterans group.
(Arch Gen Psychiatry, 2012-11)CONTEXT: Smaller hippocampal volumes are well established in posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), but the relatively few studies of amygdala volume in PTSD have produced equivocal results. OBJECTIVE: To assess a large cohort ... -
Amygdala, Hippocampus, and Ventral Medial Prefrontal Cortex Volumes Differ in Maltreated Youth with and without Chronic Posttraumatic Stress Disorder.
(Neuropsychopharmacology, 2016-02)Posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is considered a disorder of recovery where individuals fail to learn and retain extinction of the traumatic fear response. In maltreated youth, PTSD is common, chronic, and associated ... -
Amygdala-prefrontal cortex functional connectivity during threat-induced anxiety and goal distraction.
(Biol Psychiatry, 2015-02-15)BACKGROUND: Anxiety produced by environmental threats can impair goal-directed processing and is associated with a range of psychiatric disorders, particularly when aversive events occur unpredictably. The prefrontal cortex ...
