Background/Aim Misophonia is a disorder characterized by reduced tolerance to specific sounds or stimuli known as “triggers,” which tend evoke negative emotional, physiological, and behavioral responses. In this study, we aimed better characterize participants with misophonia through the evaluation of response autonomic nervous system “trigger sounds,” psychometric assessment, analysis neurological pathways. Materials methods Participants included 11 adults presenting misophonic disturbance...
Lateralization is a key aspect of brain architecture and handedness its primary manifestation. The Edinburgh Handedness Inventory (EHI) the laterality quotient (LQ) assess direction consistency require translation cross-cultural adaptation to guarantee construct validity. We developed standardized Italian EHI version. version was tested on 202 subjects, classified into three hand types based their LQs: right, mixed, left. frequency left-handedness in Italians other populations compared...
OBJECTIVE The onco-functional balance represents the primary goal in neuro-oncology. increasing use of navigated transcranial magnetic stimulation (nTMS) allows noninvasive characterization cortical functional anatomy, and its reliability for motor language mapping has previously been validated. Calculation arithmetic processing not studied with nTMS so far. In this study, authors present their preliminary data concerning calculation. METHODS designed a monocentric prospective adopting an...
Abstract Cognition was assessed in hepatitis C virus (HCV) patients, who did not meet the criteria for a minimal hepatic encephalopathy. Their liver function compensated. We then disentangled potential cognitive changes associated with sustained virologic response at 12 weeks (SVR-12), following treatment direct antiviral agents (DAAs). studied 23 selected HCV patients battery of standard neuropsychological tests, and recordings P300 wave, cerebral “cognitive” significance. There baseline...
Objective.The pathophysiology of amnestic mild cognitive impairment (aMCI) and Alzheimer disease (AD) is still a matter debate. Visual system might be precociously altered, especially for its cholinergic connections. We thus studied patients with aMCI compared to AD paired-pulse flash-visual evoked potentials (paired-F-VEPs), putative marker function. Methods. enrolled 12 adult AD. 14 normal age- sex-matched subjects acted as controls (HS). Stimuli were single flashes, interspersed random...
