Long-term dynamics of death rates of emphysema, asthma, and pneumonia and improving air quality.
(Int J Chron Obstruct Pulmon Dis, 2014)
BACKGROUND: The respiratory tract is a major target of exposure to air pollutants,
and respiratory diseases are associated with both short- and long-term exposures.
We hypothesized that improved air quality in North Carolina ...
Child welfare agency ties to providers and schools and substance abuse treatment use by adolescents.
(Journal of substance abuse treatment, 2011-01)
Policy makers and advocates are increasingly encouraging child-serving organizations
to work together. This study examined how child welfare agency ties with substance
abuse treatment providers and schools correlated with ...
Use of Salvia divinorum in a nationally representative sample.
(The American journal of drug and alcohol abuse, 2012-01)

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 ...
The spatiotemporal dynamics of autobiographical memory: neural correlates of recall, emotional intensity, and reliving.
(Cereb Cortex, 2008-01)
We sought to map the time course of autobiographical memory retrieval, including brain
regions that mediate phenomenological experiences of reliving and emotional intensity.
Participants recalled personal memories to auditory ...
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 ...
Complementary topology of maintenance and manipulation brain networks in working memory.
(Scientific reports, 2018-12-13)
Working memory (WM) is assumed to consist of a process that sustains memory representations
in an active state (maintenance) and a process that operates on these activated representations
(manipulation). We examined evidence ...
Co-activation of the amygdala, hippocampus and inferior frontal gyrus during autobiographical memory retrieval.
(Neuropsychologia, 2005)
Functional MRI was used to investigate the role of medial temporal lobe and inferior
frontal lobe regions in autobiographical recall. Prior to scanning, participants generated
cue words for 50 autobiographical memories and ...
