Due to the intrinsic low sensitivity of BOLD-fMRI long scanning is required. Subject motion
during fMRI scans reduces statistical significance of the activation maps and increases the …

The relationship between head motion and diffusion values such as fractional anisotropy
(FA) and mean diffusivity (MD) is currently not well understood. Simulation studies suggest …

Objective Previous work suggests that the perception of pain is subjective and dependent on
individual differences in physiological, emotional, and cognitive states. Functional magnetic …

One of the most consistent electrophysiological deficits reported in the schizophrenia
literature is the failure to inhibit, or properly gate, the neuronal response to the second …

Background Nicotine addiction (NA) is recognized as a significant neurobehavioral disorder
that affects both individuals and society. It is suggested that alterations in functional network …

Head motion (HM) is a well known confound in analyses of functional MRI (fMRI) data.
Neuroimaging researchers therefore typically treat HM as a nuisance covariate in their …

Due to heightened level of neuroplasticity, there is a sensitive period (2–4 years after birth)
that exists for optimal central auditory development. Using diffusion tensor imaging …

Mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) is the most common neurological disorder and is typically
characterized by temporally limited cognitive impairment and emotional symptoms. Previous …

Background Treatment of urgency urinary incontinence has focused on pharmacologically
treating detrusor overactivity. Recent recognition that altered perception of internal stimuli …

The role of ventral versus dorsolateral prefrontal regions in instantiating proactive and
reactive cognitive control remains actively debated, with few studies parsing cue versus …
