High-level cognition during story listening is reflected in high-order dynamic correlations in neural activity patterns.

Our thoughts arise from coordinated patterns of interactions between brain structures that change with our ongoing experiences. High-order dynamic correlations in neural activity patterns reflect different subgraphs of the brain's functional connectome that display homologous lower-level dynamic correlations. Here we test the hypothesis that high-level cognition is reflected in high-order dynamic correlations in brain activity patterns.

Laparoscopic treatment of Morgagni-Larrey hernia.

This report describes the cases of two patients who underwent laparoscopic repair for treatment of Morgagni-Larrey hernia at United Hospital Center in Clarksburg. The first patient was a 40-year-old woman complaining of epigastric discomfort and tenderness. Her chest X-ray revealed an anterior cardiophrenic mass, and a CT scan showed a characteristic Morgagni hernia with incarcerated colon and omentum.
