Demographic reporting and phenotypic exclusion in fNIRS.

Functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) promises to be a leading non-invasive neuroimaging method due to its portability and low cost. However, concerns are rising over its inclusivity of all skin tones and hair types (Parker and Ricard, 2022, Webb et al., 2022).

Neural and visual processing of social gaze cueing in typical and ASD adults.

Unlabelled: Atypical eye gaze in joint attention is a clinical characteristic of autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Despite this documented symptom, neural processing of joint attention tasks in real-life social interactions is not understood. To address this knowledge gap, functional-near infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) and eye-tracking data were acquired simultaneously as ASD and typically developed (TD) individuals engaged in a gaze-directed joint attention task with a live human and robot partner.

Incorporating Dis/ability Studies and Critical Race Theory to combat systematic exclusion of Black, Indigenous, and People of Color in clinical neuroscience.

This article reviews some of the ideological forces contributing to the systematic exclusion of Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC) in clinical neuroscience. Limitations of functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) and other methods systematically exclude individuals with coarse or curly hair and darker skin. Despite these well-known limitations, clinical neuroscience manuscripts frequently fail to report participant race or ethnicity or reasons for excluding participants.

Associations between sleep problems and domains relevant to daytime functioning and clinical symptomatology in autism: A meta-analysis.

Autistic individuals experience significantly higher rates of sleep problems compared to the general population, which negatively impacts various aspects of daytime functioning. The strength of associations across domains of functioning has not yet been summarized across studies. The present meta-analysis examined the strength of associations between sleep problems and various domains of daytime functioning in autistic individuals.

The N170 event-related potential reflects delayed neural response to faces when visual attention is directed to the eyes in youths with ASD.

Atypical neural response to faces is thought to contribute to social deficits in autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Compared to typically developing (TD) controls, individuals with ASD exhibit delayed brain responses to upright faces at a face-sensitive event-related potential (ERP), the N170. Given observed differences in patterns of visual attention to faces, it is not known whether slowed neural processing may simply reflect atypical looking to faces.

First-Hand Accounts of Interoceptive Difficulties in Autistic Adults.

Interoceptive awareness refers to one's ability to detect, discriminate, and regulate internal bodily and mental processes. Interoceptive challenges in ASD remain under researched and poorly understood. In this study, we analyzed texts of adults who self-identify as autistic describing their interoceptive challenges.

A meta-analysis on the relationship between interoceptive awareness and alexithymia: Distinguishing interoceptive accuracy and sensibility.

Alexithymia-a trait associated with difficulties understanding one's own emotions-is theorized to stem from deficits in , or the ability to detect, accurately monitor, and regulate internal bodily processes. The present meta-analysis analyzed all studies that empirically examined the relationship between alexithymia and interoceptive awareness. Across 66 independent samples ( = 7,146), alexithymia had a small, negative correlation with interoceptive awareness ( = -.

Temporal/compartmental changes in viral RNA and neuronal injury in a primate model of NeuroAIDS.

Despite the advent of highly active anti-retroviral therapy HIV-associated neurocognitive disorders (HAND) continue to be a significant problem. Furthermore, the precise pathogenesis of this neurodegeneration is still unclear. The objective of this study was to examine the relationship between infection by the simian immunodeficiency virus (SIV) and neuronal injury in the rhesus macaque using in vivo and postmortem sampling techniques.
