The study of event-related potentials (ERPs) is capable of elucidating the abnormalities in brain network dynamics relevant to the information-processing deficits in schizophrenia patients. In contrast to P50 and P300 ERPs, however, the results of P100 ERP studies in schizophrenia patients are less consistent. We have previously reported that P100 amplitudes did not differ significantly between...

BACKGROUND Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is a non-invasive instrument, which can be used to estimate the thickness of the retinal nerve fibre layer (RNFL) and provides an indirect measurement of axonal destruction in multiple sclerosis (MS). The main aim of this study was to find out any correlations between P100 latency in visual evoked potential (VEP) and RNFL thickness. METHODS The pa...

INTRODUCTION Schizophrenia is associated with deficits in face and affect recognition, which contribute to broader social functioning deficits. The present aim was to conduct a meta-analysis of early face processing in schizophrenia, as indexed by the P100 event-related potential component. METHODS Twelve studies (n = 328 patients with schizophrenia, n = 330 healthy controls) of the P100 comp...

Phosphorus (P) constraint can be alleviated by increasing C inputs, which help to improve crop production and P fertilizer use efficiency. However, the effects of different manures on soil microbial biomass (MBP) fractions as well in calcareous soils remain poorly understood. Soil MBP pool involves mineralization immobilization processes, potentially changing availability. Therefore, (MBP, MBC)...

background: parkinson's disease (pd) is a neurodegenerative disorder impairing motor, verbal and other abilities. visual evoked potential (vep) assessment is a useful method for analysis of visual system and its function. the present study was designed in order to evaluate whether vep changes are associated with pd. m aterials and methods: in the present study, 100 subjects encompassing 40 pati...

BACKGROUND We compared the wave amplitude of visually evoked potential (VEP) between patients with esotropic and anisometropic amblyopic eyes and a normal group. METHODS The wave amplitude of VEP was documented in 2 groups of persons with amblyopia (15 with esotropia and 28 with anisometropia) and 1 group of individuals with normal visual acuity (n, 15). The amplitude of P100 was recorded mon...

ABSTRACT We present a new special relativistic hydrodynamics (SRHD) code capable of handling coexisting ultra-relativistically hot and non-relativistically cold gases. achieve this by designing algorithm for conversion between primitive conserved variables in the SRHD solver, which incorporates realistic ideal-gas equation state covering both non-relativistic regimes. The can handle problems in...

The c-Myb transcription factor is a proto-oncoprotein whose latent transforming activity can be unmasked by truncation of either terminus. Because both ends of Myb are involved in negative regulation, we tested whether they could associate in a two-hybrid assay and identified a carboxy-terminal motif that interacts with the amino-terminal DNA-binding domain. The EVES motif is highly conserved i...
