Objective To synthesize the available evidence on the effects of constraint-induced movement therapy (CIMT) in children with hemiplegic cerebral palsy (CP), focusing on upper limb functional outcomes and neuroplasticity-...

Recently, a three-terminal interface dipole modulation field-effect transistor (IDM FET) memory device has been proposed that leverages electric-field-induced dipole modulation at oxide/oxide interfaces. This device has ...

Postnatal hippocampal neurogenesis is essential for learning and memory. Hippocampal neural precursor cells (NPCs) can be induced to proliferate and differentiate into either glial cells or dentate granule cells. Notably...

Experience-related plasticity is an essential component of networks involved in early olfactory processing. However, the mechanisms and functions of plasticity in these neural networks are not well understood. We studied...

The purpose of this study is to examine the effects of applying anodal tDCS (2 mA for 20 min) over the scalp from T3 (anodal-tDCS) to Fp2 (cathodal-tDCS) on the perceptual, physiological and performance responses dur...

Perinatal asphyxia (PA) is a primary cause of neonatal morbidity, with persistent neurological sequelae, associated with mitochondrial dysfunction and redox imbalance. The lack of experimental approaches for region-speci...

Background: Approximately 40% of individuals who experience an ankle sprain subsequently develop Chronic Ankle Instability (CAI). Recent evidence highlights alterations in Central Nervous System (CNS) function and defici...

In this scoping review, we investigate music skill acquisition from an embodiment perspective. We conceptualize the acquisition of musical expertise, not only as a technical process but as a gradual incorporation process...

The immune system is an important modulator of learning, memory and neural plasticity. Interleukin 1β (IL-1β), a pro-inflammatory cytokine, significantly affects several cognitive processes. Previous studies by our gro...

In the last decades there have been significant advances in our understanding of the cellular and subcellular mechanisms underlying changes in synaptic connectivity that subserve memory formation. The so called Theory of...

Early ethanol exposure alters neonatal breathing plasticity. Respiratory EtOH's effects are attributed to central respiratory network disruptions, particularly in the medullary serotonin (5HT) system. In this study we ev...

BackgroundRepetitive peripheral magnetic stimulation (rPMS), a representative non-invasive neuromodulation technique, is widely utilized for the recovery of motor dysfunction following stroke. Although its clinical effic...

Abstract The mammalian brain organises knowledge about entities in the world and relationships between them using cognitive maps. When forming a cognitive map, there is a necessary trade-off between extending the map to ...

Abstract The global rise in mental health conditions has prompted interest in interventions that act beyond conventional psychopharmacology. Psychobiotics, broadly understood as live microorganisms or microbe‐derived p...
