Prognostic and Monitory EEG-Biomarkers for BCI Upper-Limb Stroke Rehabilitation
Ravikiran Mane,Effie Chew,Kok Soon Phua,Kai Keng Ang,Neethu Robinson,A. P. Vinod,Cuntai Guan +6 more
TL;DR: Investigation of intervention-specific prognostic and monitory biomarkers of motor function improvements using quantitative electroencephalography (QEEG) features in chronic stroke patients following two different upper extremity rehabilitative interventions suggest that intervention- specific biomarkers can be identified.

TL;DR: HFrTMS is more effective than atDCS for improving global cognition, and patients with Alzheimer’s disease or mild cognitive impairment may have better responses to rTMS and tDCS than MCI.

BDNF genotype and tDCS interaction in aphasia treatment
Julius Fridriksson,Jordan J. Elm,Brielle C. Stark,Alexandra Basilakos,Chris Rorden,Souvik Sen,Mark S. George,Michelle Gottfried,Leonardo Bonilha +8 more
TL;DR: Individuals with the val/val BDNF genotype are more likely to benefit from A-tDCS during aphasia treatment, and those with the Val/val genotype showed greater response to aphasic treatment than val/Val participants who received S-tDCs, as well as the Met allele carriers, regardless of tDCS condition.

TL;DR: Genome-wide analysis suggests that several genes that increase the risk for sporadic Alzheimer's disease encode factors that regulate glial clearance of misfolded proteins and the inflammatory reaction.

Publication bias in clinical research
TL;DR: The presence of publication bias in a cohort of clinical research studies is confirmed and it is suggested that conclusions based only on a review of published data should be interpreted cautiously, especially for observational studies.

Theory for the development of neuron selectivity: orientation specificity and binocular interaction in visual cortex
TL;DR: The development of stimulus selectivity in the primary sensory cortex of higher vertebrates is considered in a general mathematical framework and a synaptic evolution scheme of a new kind is proposed in which incoming patterns rather than converging afferents compete.

Drug Addiction and Its Underlying Neurobiological Basis: Neuroimaging Evidence for the Involvement of the Frontal Cortex
Rita Z. Goldstein,Nora D. Volkow +1 more
TL;DR: An integrated model of drug addiction that encompasses intoxication, bingeing, withdrawal, and craving is proposed, and results imply that addiction connotes cortically regulated cognitive and emotional processes, which result in the overvaluing of drug reinforcers, the undervalued of alternative rein forcers, and deficits in inhibitory control for drug responses.
