1. 6. On characterisation and diagnosis of frontotemporal lobar degeneration syndromes : with special reference to the progressive aphasias

   Författare :N Christian Andersen; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Nyckelord :;

   Sammanfattning : Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the most common dementing brain disease, with episodic memory impairment as a characteristic early feature. However, not all primary degenerative brain syndromes include prominent deficits in day-to-day memorizing. LÄS MER

3. 7. Brain functional near infrared spectroscopy in human infants : cerebral cortical haemodynamics coupled to neuronal activation in response to sensory stimulation

   Författare :Marco Bartocci; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Nyckelord :Near infrared spectroscopy; newborn; infant; brain; sensory stimulation; cortical activation;

   Sammanfattning : The assessment of cortical activation in the neonatal brain is crucial in the study of brain development, as it provides precious information for how the newborn infant processes external or internal stimuli. Thus far functional studies of neonates aimed to assess cortical responses to certain external stimuli are very few, due to the lack of suitable techniques to monitor brain activity of the newborn.

4. 8. Inter-individual differences in associative memory : structural and functional brain correlates and genetic modulators

   Författare :Nina Becker; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Nyckelord :;

   Sammanfattning : Our memory for personal experiences (e.g., the first day at school) is termed episodic memory. This form of memory involves the recollection of single information as well as the connection between these pieces of information (e. LÄS MER

5. 9. A longitudinal study of cognitive changes after surgical treatment for epilepsy

   Författare :Elisabeth Engman; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Nyckelord :Epilepsy surgery; general neurocognitive status; memory; group change; individual heterogeneity;

   Sammanfattning : Epilepsy surgery is a valuable therapeutic option for some patients with pharmaco-resistant partial epilepsy, but resection of cortical tissue carries a risk of creating or worsening a dysfunction. Therefore pre-and postoperative levels of cognitive function are systematically monitored in epilepsy surgery programs. LÄS MER

7. 10. On the mind's time : production, perception, and pianists performance of rhythms : neural correlates and neuroanatomical changes

   Författare :Sara L Bengtsson; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Nyckelord :;

   Sammanfattning : Human movements are impressively flexible and precise. They are also coloured by the characteristics with which each person performs an act. This is evident in everyday activities, in sports, in art, and in music performance. LÄS MER
