Statistical Learning Impairments as a Consequence of Stroke

Statistical learning is the implicit learning of the contingencies between sequential stimuli, typically from mere exposure. It is present from infancy onward, and plays a role in functions from language learning to selective attention. Despite these obser ...

Delta Power Is Higher and More Symmetrical in Ischemic Stroke Patients with Cortical Involvement

Silvestro Micera, Fiorenzo Artoni

A brain injury resulting from unilateral stroke critically alters brain functionality and the complex balance within the cortical activity. Such modifications may critically depend on lesion location and cortical involvement. Indeed, recent findings pointe ...

Left neglect dyslexia: Perseveration and reading error types

Roberta Ronchi, Giuseppe Vallar

Right-brain-damaged patients may show a reading disorder termed neglect dyslexia. Patients with left neglect dyslexia omit letters on the left-hand-side (the beginning, when reading left-to-right) part of the letter string, substitute them with other lette ...

Computational Modeling of Resting State Activity demonstrates Markers of Normalcy in Children with Pre- or Perinatal Stroke

Alessandra Griffa, Patric Hagmann

Children who sustain a prenatal or perinatal brain injury in the form of a stroke develop remarkably normal cognitive functions in certain areas, with a particular strength in language skills. A dominant explanation for this is that brain regions from the ...

Neuroenergetic Response to Prolonged Cerebral Glucose Depletion after Severe Brain Injury and the Role of Lactate

Pierre Magistretti, Jocelyne Bloch, Luc Pellerin

Lactate may represent a supplemental fuel for the brain. We examined cerebral lactate metabolism during prolonged brain glucose depletion (GD) in acute brain injury (ABI) patients monitored with cerebral microdialysis (CMD). Sixty episodes of GD (defined a ...

Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) is a body fluid of high clinical relevance and an important source of potential biomarkers for brain-associated damages, such as traumatic brain injury and stroke, and for brain diseases, such as Alzheimer's and Parkinson's. Herei ...

Connectivity Analysis of Brain States and Applications in Brain-Computer Interfaces

Huaijian Zhang

Human brain is organized by a large number of functionally correlated but spatially distributed cortical neurons. Cognitive processes are usually associated with dynamic interactions among multiple brain regions. Therefore, the understanding of brain funct ...

Hyperschematia after right brain damage: a meaningful entity?

Roberta Ronchi, Giuseppe Vallar

In recent years we reported three right-brain-damaged patients, who exhibited a left-sided disprortionate expansion of drawings, both by copying and from memory, contralateral to the side of the hemispheric lesion (Neurology, 67: 1801, 2006, Neurocase 14: ...

Experimental evidence suggests that lactate is neuroprotective after acute brain injury; however, data in humans are lacking. We examined whether exogenous lactate supplementation improves cerebral energy metabolism in humans with traumatic brain injury (T ...
