Wepresent a neural network model of cognition in medicated and unmedicated patients with Parkinson’s disease (PD) in various learning and memory tasks. The model extends our prior models of the basal ganglia and PD with ...

Building on our previous neurocomputational models of basal ganglia and hippocampal region function (and their modulation by dopamine and acetylcholine, respectively), we show here how an integration of these models can ...

Understanding the three-dimensional structure (3-D) of GPCRs (G protein coupled receptors) can aid in the design of applicable compounds for the treatment of several human disorders. To this end, several 3-D models ...

To test a prediction of our previous computational model of cortico-hippocampal interaction (Gluck and Myers [1993, 2001]) for characterizing individual differences in category learning, we studied young healthy subjects ...

A commercially available chelating polymer, polystyrene tris(2-aminoethyl)amine, was used for the removal of chromium from aqueous solution. The influence of pH, contact time, adsorbent dosage and initial Cr (VI) ...

Background. Malaria is a devastating disease, particularly in Africa, due to development of resistance by Plasmodium falciparum against all known antimalarial drugs, including artemisinin. Therefore, the search for new ...

Purpose: Retinitis pigmentosa (RP) is a heterogenous group of inherited retinal degenerations caused by mutations in at least 45 genes. Recently, the FAM161A gene was identified as the causative gene for RP28, an autosomal ...

Inadequate health knowledge is associated with poor health status and increased rates of morbidity and mortality. College students with limited health knowledge may face many difficulties, ranging from what major to ...

Introduction: Although, the importance of personal hygiene in reducing the infection cannot be underestimated; but it is not enough when other hygienic resources and facilities are inadequate or unavailable. Purpose: To ...

This review supplies the reader with a detailed overview on the utilization of intramolecular processes for a design and synthesis of prodrugs. It is well known that a respected number of drugs suffer from low ...
