Motivated by the vast amount of information that is rapidly accumulating about human brain in digital form, we embarked upon a program 1992 to develop four–dimensional probabilistic atlas and reference system for brain. Through an International Consortium Brain Mapping (ICBM) dataset being collected includes 7000 subjects between ages eighteen ninety years including 342 mono– dizygotic twins. Data on each subject detailed demographic, clinical, behavioural imaging information. DNA has been...
Over the past few decades, neuroimaging has become a ubiquitous tool in basic research and clinical studies of human brain. However, no reference standards currently exist to quantify individual differences metrics over time, contrast growth charts for anthropometric traits such as height weight
The authors describe the development of a four-dimensional atlas and reference system that includes both macroscopic microscopic information on structure function human brain in persons between ages 18 90 years. Given presumed large but previously unquantified degree structural functional variance among normal population, basis for this is probabilistic. Through efforts International Consortium Brain Mapping (ICBM), 7,000 subjects will be included initial phase database development. For each...
Group walking is a collective social interaction task as pedestrians are required to determine their own pace of on the basis surrounding others' states. The steady beat sound known be controllable factor that contributes relative success/failure coordinated group since improves pedestrian flow in congested situation. According some reports, inter-personal synchronizes brain activity prefrontal region, which supports cognitive processes for successful inter-individual coordination, such...
Abstract Over the past few decades, neuroimaging has become a ubiquitous tool in basic research and clinical studies of human brain. However, no reference standards currently exist to quantify individual differences metrics over time, contrast growth charts for anthropometric traits such as height weight 1 . Here, we built an interactive resource benchmark brain morphology, www.brainchart.io , derived from any current or future sample magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) data. With goal basing...
Creativity is hypothesized to arise from a mental state which balances spontaneous thought and cognitive control, corresponding functional connectivity between the brain's Default Mode (DMN) Executive Control (ECN) Networks. Here, we conduct large-scale, multi-center examination of this hypothesis. Employing meta-analytic network neuroscience approach, analyze resting-state fMRI creative task performance across 10 independent samples Austria, Canada, China, Japan, United States (N =...
Abstract The aim of this study was to identify the neuroanatomical basis retrieval people's names. Lesion data showed that patients with language-dominant temporal lobectomy had impairments in their ability retrieve familiar and newly learned names, whereas language-nondominant difficulty retrieving Functional magnetic resonance imaging experiments revealed activations left polar region during right superior bilateral prefrontal cortices information from face cues. These provide new evidence...
REGIONAL cerebral blood flow was measured by positron emission tomography in seven subjects during reaching with saccade, without saccade and control tasks. The task activated two spatially distinct areas the contralateral intraparietal sulcus (IPS) compared condition. area located anterior part of IPS also but not task. other area, posterior was, contrast, active results indicate that human is functionally heterogeneous, functional roles its parts include movements eye movements, respectively.
In this study, we investigated two aspects of verb processing: first, whether verbs are processed differently from nouns; and second, how verbal morphology is processed. For purpose, used functional magnetic resonance imaging to compare three types lexical processing in Japanese: the nouns, unmarked active verbs, inflected passive verbs. Twenty-eight healthy subjects were shown a item asked judge presented was legal word. Although all conditions activated bilateral inferior frontal,...
Abstract In the companion article a local electrovascular coupling (LEVC) model was proposed to explain continuous dynamics of electrical and vascular states within cortical unit. These produce certain mesoscopic reflections whose discrete time series can be reconstructed from electroencephalography (EEG) functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI). this we develop recursive optimization algorithm based on linearization (LL) filter an innovation method make statistical inferences about LEVC...
The elucidation of the complex machinery used by human brain to segregate and integrate information while performing high cognitive functions is a subject imminent future consequences. most significant contributions date in this field, known as neuroscience, have been achieved using innovative neuroimaging techniques, such electroencephalogram (EEG) functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), which measure variations both time space some interpretable physical magnitudes. Extraordinary...
The purpose of this study was to examine the beneficial effects a new cognitive intervention program designed for care and prevention dementia, namely Learning Therapy. training used systematized basic problems in arithmetic Japanese language as tasks. In 1, 16 individuals experimental group control were recruited from nursing home. both groups, all clinically diagnosed with senile dementia Alzheimer type. 2, we performed single-blind, randomized controlled trial our 124 community-dwelling...
OBJECT Convection-enhanced delivery (CED) is an effective drug method that delivers high concentrations of drugs directly into the targeted lesion beyond blood-brain barrier. However, distribution attained using CED has not satisfactorily covered entire in tumors such as glioma. Recently, efficacy ultrasound assistance was reported for various applications. The authors developed a new ultrasound-facilitated (UFD) system enables application at infusion site. purpose this study to demonstrate...
Adults seem to have greater difficulties than children in acquiring a second language (L2) because of the alleged "window opportunity" around puberty. Postpuberty Japanese participants learned new English rule with simplex sentences during one month instruction, and then they were tested on "uninstructed complex sentences" as well "instructed sentences." The behavioral data show that can acquire more knowledge is instructed, suggesting interweaving nature (universal principles grammar, UG)...
The auditory steady state response (ASSR) is an oscillatory brain response, which phase locked to the rhythm of stimulus. ASSRs have been recorded in a wide frequency range modulation and/or repetition, but physiological features are somewhat different depending on frequency. Recently, 20-Hz ASSR has emphasized clinical examinations, especially area psychiatry. However, little known about properties ASSR, compared those 40-Hz and 80-Hz ASSRs. effects contralateral noise depend evoke ASSR....
The effects of oxygen availability on neurovascular coupling were investigated using simultaneous electroencephalography (EEG) and functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), in addition to the monitoring physiological parameters, 16 α-chloralose-anesthetized rats. Mild hypoxic hypoxia (oxygen saturation=83.6±12.1%) induced significant reductions fMRI responses ( P<0.05) electrical stimulation forepaw, but EEG remained unchanged. In addition, changes saturation linearly correlated with...
Abstract Introduction How human brains acquire second languages (L2) is one of the fundamental questions in neuroscience and language science. However, it unclear whether first (L1) has a cross‐linguistic influence on processing L2. Methods Here, we used functional magnetic resonance imaging to compare brain activities during L2 word reading tasks phonographic J apanese Kana between two groups learners as their who had different orthographic backgrounds L1. For C hinese learners, L1 (Hanji)...
