How did that interaction make you feel? The relationship between quality of everyday social experiences and emotion in people with and without schizophrenia
(2019)People with schizophrenia report positive emotion during social interactions in ecological momentary assessment (EMA) studies; however, few of these studies examine the qualities of social interactions (e.g., intimacy) ... -
Associations of accelerometer-measured physical activity and sedentary time with chronic kidney disease: The Framingham Heart Study
(2020)BACKGROUND: Few studies examined the individual and conjoint associations of accelerometer-measured physical activity (PA) and sedentary times with the prevalence of chronic kidney disease (CKD) among older adults. METHODS: ... -
Predictors of low birth weight and preterm birth in rural Uganda: findings from a birth cohort study
BACKGROUND: Approximately 20.5 million infants were born weighing <2500 g (defined as low birthweight or LBW) in 2015, primarily in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). Infants born LBW, including those born preterm ... -
Aflatoxin exposure in pregnant women of mixed status of human immunodeficiency virus infection and rate of gestational weight gain: a Ugandan cohort study
(Wiley, 2020-09)OBJECTIVES: To examine the association between aflatoxin (AF) exposure during pregnancy and rate of gestational weight gain (GWG) in a sample of pregnant women of mixed HIV status in Gulu, northern Uganda. METHODS: 403 ... -
Chunking of phonological units in speech sequencing
(2019-08)Efficient speech communication requires rapid, fluent production of phoneme sequences. To achieve this, our brains store frequently occurring subsequences as cohesive "chunks" that reduce phonological working memory load ... -
Postnatal development and maturation of layer 1 in the lateral prefrontal cortex and its disruption in autism
(BMC, 2019-03-13)Autism is a neurodevelopmental connectivity disorder characterized by cortical network disorganization and imbalance in excitation/inhibition. However, little is known about the development of autism pathology and the ... -
Evolution, development, and organization of the cortical connectome
(2019-05)Hypotheses and theoretical frameworks are needed to organize and interpret the wealth of data on the organization of cortical networks in humans and animals in the light of development, evolution, and selective vulnerability ... -
Parallel driving and modulatory pathways link the prefrontal cortex and thalamus
(PUBLIC LIBRARY SCIENCE, 2007-09-05)Pathways linking the thalamus and cortex mediate our daily shifts from states of attention to quiet rest, or sleep, yet little is known about their architecture in high-order neural systems associated with cognition, emotion ... -
Organization of primate amygdalar-thalamic pathways for emotions
(2020-02)Studies on the thalamus have mostly focused on sensory relay nuclei, but the organization of pathways associated with emotions is not well understood. We addressed this issue by testing the hypothesis that the primate ... -
Altered neural connectivity in excitatory and inhibitory cortical circuits in autism
(FRONTIERS MEDIA SA, 2013-09-27)Converging evidence from diverse studies suggests that atypical brain connectivity in autism affects in distinct ways short- and long-range cortical pathways, disrupting neural communication and the balance of excitation ...
