Gamma aminobutyric acid (GABA)-mediated synapses and the oscillations they orchestrate are altered in autism. GABA-acting benzodiazepines exert in some patients with autism paradoxical effects, raising the possibility that like in epilepsies, GABA excites ...
We examine the apparent disorder which seems to characterize the spatial structure of soil moisture by analyzing large-scale experimental data. Specifically, we address the statistical structure of soil moisture fields under different scales of observation ...
We studied structural changes in a 5 unit cell thick La1.96Sr0.04CuO4 film, epitaxially grown on a LaSrAlO4 substrate with a single unit cell buffer layer, when ultra-high electric fields were induced in the film by applying a gate voltage between the film ...
Nickel-aluminium intermetallics constitute interesting systems for the study of irradiation-induced phase transformations (order → disorder, amorphization) and production of defects. Irradiation of ordered intermetallics may induce disorder or amorphizatio ...
Photoelectron spectroscopy with high-energy resolution has been utilized to investigate the charge-density wave (CDW) in 1T-TaS2 between 20 and 360 K. Constant binding-energy curves reveal discontinuities in the temperature dependence of the photoelectron ...
Background: Patients suffering from functional neurological disorder (FND) experience disabling neurological symptoms not caused by an underlying classical neurological disease (such as stroke or multiple sclerosis). The diagnosis is made based on reliable ...
SMN (Survival Motor Neuron) deficiency is the predominant cause of spinal muscular atrophy (SMA), a severe neurodegenerative disorder that can lead to progressive paralysis and death. Although SMN is required in every cell for proper RNA metabolism, the re ...
Autism is a devastating neurodevelopmental disorder with a polygenetic predisposition that seems to be triggered by multiple environmental factors during embryonic and/or early postnatal life. While significant advances have been made in identifying the ne ...
Through a combination of experimental techniques we show that the topmost layer of the topological insulator TlBiSe2 as prepared by cleavage is formed by irregularly shaped Tl islands at cryogenic temperatures and by mobile Tl atoms at room temperature. No ...

The present invention concerns a method for treating and/or preventing a Pervasive Developmental Disorder in a subject in need thereof comprising the step of modulating the synaptic connectivity in the neocortex by administering a therapeutically effective ...
