Learning from 2523 trauma deaths in India- opportunities to prevent in-hospital deaths.
(BMC health services research, 2017-02-16)
A systematic analysis of trauma deaths is a step towards trauma quality improvement
in Indian hospitals. This study estimates the magnitude of preventable trauma deaths
in five Indian hospitals, and uses a peer-review process ...
The dynamics of proactive and reactive cognitive control processes in the human brain.
(J Cogn Neurosci, 2014-05)
In this study, we leveraged the high temporal resolution of EEG to examine the neural
mechanisms underlying the flexible regulation of cognitive control that unfolds over
different timescales. We measured behavioral and ...
Validation and Identification of Invasive Salmonella Serotypes in Sub-Saharan Africa by Multiplex Polymerase Chain Reaction.
(Clin Infect Dis, 2016-03-15)
Salmonella enterica serovar Typhi and nontyphoidal Salmonella (NTS) cause the majority
of bloodstream infections in sub-Saharan Africa; however, serotyping is rarely performed.
We validated a multiplex polymerase chain reaction ...
The frequency of voluntary and involuntary autobiographical memories across the life span.
(Mem Cognit, 2009-07)
In the present study, ratings of the memory of an important event from the previous
week on the frequency of voluntary and involuntary retrieval, belief in its accuracy,
visual imagery, auditory imagery, setting, emotional ...
Action video game playing is associated with improved visual sensitivity, but not alterations in visual sensory memory.
(Atten Percept Psychophys, 2013-08)
Action video game playing has been experimentally linked to a number of perceptual
and cognitive improvements. These benefits are captured through a wide range of psychometric
tasks and have led to the proposition that action ...
Beta2-adrenergic receptor gene polymorphisms as systemic determinants of healthy aging in an evolutionary context.
(Mech Ageing Dev, 2010-05)
The Gln(27)Glu polymorphism but not the Arg(16)Gly polymorphism of the beta2-adrenergic
receptor (ADRB2) gene appears to be associated with a broad range of aging-associated
phenotypes, including cancers at different sites, ...
Experimental manipulations of the phenomenology of memory.
(Mem Cognit, 2003-09)
We investigated the effects of visual input at encoding and retrieval on the phenomenology
of memory. In Experiment 1, participants took part in events with and without wearing
blindfolds, and later were shown a video of ...
Brain activity during episodic retrieval of autobiographical and laboratory events: an fMRI study using a novel photo paradigm.
(J Cogn Neurosci, 2004-11)
Functional neuroimaging studies of episodic memory retrieval generally measure brain
activity while participants remember items encountered in the laboratory ("controlled
laboratory condition") or events from their own life ...
Music, emotion, and autobiographical memory: they're playing your song.
(Mem Cognit, 1999-11)
Very long-term memory for popular music was investigated. Older and younger adults
listened to 20-sec excerpts of popular songs drawn from across the 20th century. The
subjects gave emotionality and preference ratings and ...
People believe it is plausible to have forgotten memories of childhood sexual abuse.
(Psychon Bull Rev, 2007-08)
Pezdek, Blandon-Gitlin, and Gabbay (2006) found that perceptions of the plausibility
of events increase the likelihood that imagination may induce false memories of those
events. Using a survey conducted by Gallup, we asked ...
