Changes in brain activity patterns in aging : the novelty oddball

TL;DR: The elderly were less accurate in their memory for the novel stimuli, and their P3s showed anterior and posterior foci to both targets and novels, which are consistent with decreased ability of the elderly to maintain the templates needed for stimulus categorization.

Age-Related Decline in Dopamine Transporters: Analysis of Striatal Subregions, Nonlinear Effects, and Hemispheric Asymmetries

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that aging is associated with a relatively symmetric loss of DATs in the caudate and putamen in both hemispheres, which has implications not only for healthy aging but also for neurodegenerative disorders such as PD.

Increased self-focus in major depressive disorder is related to neural abnormalities in subcortical-cortical midline structures

TL;DR: First evidence is presented that the abnormally increased negative self‐attribution as hallmark of the increased self‐focus in MDD might be mediated by altered neural activity in subcortical‐ cortical midline structures.

Lexical—semantic event–related potential effects in patients with left hemisphere lesions and aphasia, and patients with right hemisphere lesions without aphasia

TL;DR: This article found that comprehension deficits in aphasic patients are due to an impairment in integrating individual word meanings into an overall meaning representation, suggesting the involvement of the right hemisphere in semantically coarse coding.

Validation of hippocampal volumes measured using a manual method and two automated methods (FreeSurfer and IBASPM) in chronic major depressive disorder

TL;DR: Although the automated methods could detect hippocampal atrophy in the patients with MDD, the results indicate that manual hippocampal volumetry is still the gold standard, while the automated volumetric methods need to be improved.

Handedness in musicians

TL;DR: In this article, the authors made an inquiry by means of a questionnaire which included a "handedness inventory" into the prevalence of left-handedness among musicians, and the difficulties, if any, which lefthanders experienced in acquiring executant skills.

Randolph K. Byers
- 01 Mar 1963 - 
TL;DR: It is true that a few cases of this disease are seen from time to time in Australia; but the patients have been immigrants infected in their country of Orkney in the Mediterranean area.
