The time-course of endogenous temporal attention - Super fast voluntary allocation of attention.

It is widely accepted that voluntary spatial attention is slow - it can only affect performance with medium and long cue-target intervals. Here, we examined whether this also holds for voluntary temporal attention. We performed a rigorous examination of the time-course of attention allocation to a point in time using two common paradigms for studying endogenous temporal attention: 'constant foreperiod' and 'temporal orienting'.

A Systematic Comparison of Static and Dynamic Cues for Depth Perception.

Purpose: A clinical diagnosis of stereoblindness does not necessarily preclude compelling depth perception. Qualitative observations suggest that this may be due to the dynamic nature of the stimuli. The purpose of this study was to systematically investigate the effectiveness of static and dynamic stereoscopic stimuli.

Adult bile acid amino transferase deficiency.

Patient: Female, 70 FINAL DIAGNOSIS: Bile acid amino transferase deficiency Symptoms: Headache • indigestion • itching skin • nausea • vomiting

Medication: - Clinical Procedure: - Specialty: Gastroenterology and Hepatology.

Objective: Challenging differential diagnosis.

Background: Bile acid synthesis impairments are difficult to diagnose due to non-specific manifestations related to progressive failure to absorb essential fatty acids and fat soluble vitamins and failure to maintain normal intestinal microbiota.

QEEG studies in the assessment and treatment of childhood disorders.

Quantifying EEG measures across age allows the ability to establish parameters of normalcy at any age which can be used as a reference when children exhibit developmental delays in their abilities and/or other atypical and maladaptive behaviors. A review of the current literature on the utilization of QEEG methods to serve as an aid for identifying these children as distinctively different from normal, and in some cases as distinctive from other clinical considerations has been shown to provide a sufficient sensitivity and specificity worthy of consideration as a diagnostic aid in evaluating clinical deviations in development. Furthermore, these same QEEG measures can provide a means of establishing treatment efficacy for the evident brain dysfunctions underlying these childhood disorders.
