Clinical perspectives on the identification of neurodevelopmental conditions in children and changes in referral pathways
Objective: Previous work has raised questions about the role of general practitioners (GPs) in the identification of neurodevelopmental conditions such as autism spectrum disorders (autism) and attention deficit hyperactivity...
Differentiating "Attachment Difficulties" From Autism Spectrum Disorders and Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder
OBJECTIVES: "Attachment difficulties" is an umbrella term often used to describe various forms of non-secure attachment. Differentiating "attachment difficulties" from autism spectrum disorder (hereafter autism) and attention...

Children in foster care with symptoms of reactive attachment disorder
BACKGROUND: Looked-after children are at risk of suboptimal attachment patterns and reactive attachment disorder (RAD). However, access to interventions varies widely, and there are no evidence-based interventions for RAD. AIMS...
Caveats and Nuances of Model-Based and Model-Free Representational Connectivity Analysis.
Brain connectivity analyses have conventionally relied on statistical relationship between one-dimensional summaries of activation in different brain areas. However, summarizing activation patterns within each area to a single...
Concurrent neuroimaging and neurostimulation reveals a causal role for dlPFC in coding of task-relevant information.
Dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (dlPFC) is proposed to drive brain-wide focus by biasing processing in favour of task-relevant information. A longstanding debate concerns whether this is achieved through enhancing processing of...
Understanding Cross-Level Interactions of Firm-Level Information Technology and Industry Environment
This article contends that although much research on the business value of IT focuses on firm-level impacts, studies have begun incorporating industry-level variables as explanatory factors of interest to offer better...
Adaptive coding in the human brain
Our ability to flexibly switch between different tasks is a key component of cognitive control. Non-human primate (NHP) studies (e.g., Freedman, Riesenhuber, Poggio, & Miller, 2001) have shown that prefrontal neurons are re-used...
Senior Biology Major Earns Undergraduate Microbiology Award
Winthrop University
Jan 01, 0001
The biology major has worked in faculty member Matt Heard's lab for a year where she is studying whether there is a link between the introduction of exotic mammals and the emergence of infectious diseases in humans. Hardwick...

Effect of trunnion roughness and length on the modular taper junction strength under typical intraoperative assembly forces
Modular hip implants are at risk of fretting-induced postoperative complications most likely initiated by micromotion between adjacent implant components. A stable fixation between ball head and stem-neck taper is critical to...
Unconstrained multivariate EEG decoding can help detect lexical-semantic processing in individual children.
In conditions such as minimally-verbal autism, standard assessments of language comprehension are often unreliable. Given the known heterogeneity within the autistic population, it is crucial to design tests of semantic...

Modular hip implants are at risk of fretting-induced postoperative complications most likely initiated by micromotion between adjacent implant components. A stable fixation between ball head and stem-neck taper is critical to...
Neural signatures of vigilance decrements predict behavioural errors before they occur.
There are many monitoring environments, such as railway control, in which lapses of attention can have tragic consequences. Problematically, sustained monitoring for rare targets is difficult, with more misses and longer...
Parenting and mother-infant interactions in the context of maternal postpartum obsessive-compulsive disorder

Background: Maternal mental illness is associated with negative effects on the infant and child. Increased attention has been paid to the effects of specific perinatal disorders on parenting and interactions as an important...

The multiple-demand system but not the language system supports fluid intelligence.
A set of frontoparietal brain regions - the multiple-demand (MD) system [1, 2] - has been linked to fluid intelligence in brain imaging [3, 4] and in studies of patients with brain damage [5-7].For example, the amount of damage...
A pilot randomized controlled trial of time-intensive Cognitive Behaviour Therapy for postpartum OCD

There is increasing recognition that perinatal anxiety disorders are both common and potentially serious for mother and child. Obsessive–compulsive disorder (OCD) can be triggered or exacerbated in the postpartum period...
Late disruption of central visual field disrupts peripheral perception of form and color
Evidence from neuroimaging and brain stimulation studies suggest that visual information about objects in the periphery is fed back to foveal retinotopic cortex in a separate representation that is essential for peripheral...
