…speed are not understood. Here we compared two groups of non-demented older people who had relatively similar IQs at age 11 but differed markedly in non-verbal reasoning ability at age…

…couple to access prenatal testing in a subsequent pregnancy. Conclusion:Isolated sulphite oxidase deficiency is an autosomal recessive condition which may mimic ischaemic encephalophathy. The disorder should be considered in all…

To examine how judgments of learning (JOLs) are made, we used event-related potentials (ERPs) to compare neural correlates of JOLs and successful memory encoding. Participants saw word pairs, and for…

Silent pauses are a common form of disfluency in speech yet little attention has been paid to them in the psycholinguistic literature. The present paper investigates the consequences of such…

…evoke high levels of pleasure in a specific test group and to distinguish regions of pleasure from anticipation. It exploits the intense commitment of soccer supporters and thus captures the…

…cent were classified as ‘improved’; 35% were ‘unchanged’; and 10% had ‘deteriorated’. Neurocognitive and personality testing were not significantly different at follow-up. A trend towards improvement in some aspects of…

Background Magnesium is neuroprotective in animal models of stroke, and findings of small clinical pilot trials suggest potential benefit in people. We aimed to test whether intravenous magnesium sulphate, given…

…models to test whether the Mg-LACS interaction remained significant after adjusting for stratification variables, sex, a novel stroke severity score, and baseline variables that had an interaction with treatment (P…

…and favourable dose-response characteristics when compared with previously tested neuroprotective agents. Small clinical trials have reported benefit, but results are not statistically significant in systematic review. A large ongoing trial…

…so task difficulty. We tested two neglect patients, one chronic, one recovered along with two RCVA control patients and 12 age-matched controls. Both neglect patients studied could successfully execute saccades…
