Presented is the neuroradiological signature of acute Wernicke's encephalopathy (WE), derived from different types of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) sequences.

We hypothesized that the influence of opiates on sleep may be mediated, at least in part, by the ventrolateral preoptic nucleus (VLPO), a key cell group for producing behavioral sleep.

We used a global–local paradigm to assess component processes of visuospatial ability and MR diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) to examine whether alcoholism-related microstructural degradation of the corpus callosum contributes to…

Preliminary microarray analyses show that changes in behavioral state influence regional mRNA profiles; however, the impact of sleep on protein signatures is virtually unexplored. In these studies, cortical protein profiles…

We implemented a genetic model for population-based association studies with stratified samples and evaluated the impact on power with different genetic scenarios.

This mini-symposium review highlights some recent developments at the gene, molecular, cellular, and systems levels that have advanced this field.

Quantitative peptidomics was used to compare levels of peptides in wild type (WT) and Cpefat/fat mice, which lack carboxypeptidase E (CPE) activity because of a point mutation.

We investigated the association between DRD2 genotype at these loci and the risk of colorectal adenoma recurrence in the Polyp Prevention Trial. Odds ratios (OR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI)…

We show here that hexanoic acid, heptanoic acid, octanoic acid, nonanoic acid, decanoic acid, ethylhexanoate, and methyloctanoate decrease intracellular inositol levels and increase the expression of INO1, the gene encoding myo-inositol-3-phosphate synthase…

The present pilot study tests the hypothesis that the application of expiratory resistance via a nasal valve device would improve breathing during sleep in subjects with OSA and in primary…
