The 25-year-old Frenchman suffered a diffuse axonal injury to his brain, which involves widespread damage, in an horrific crash involving a vehicle attempting to recover another car.
The neurodegenerative process in AD is closely related with an inflammatory response in the brain which involves several AA-derived lipid inflammatory mediators [ 28].
The diagnostic-workup closed with an MRI of the brain, which involved both structural (3D-T1, T2*, FLAIR, and DTI sequences) and functional (resting-state sequence, emotional faces paradigm [ 37]) recordings.
It's easy to see how this test might be used to measure or predict anxiety, which involves an overactive brain response to negative or threatening stimuli.
Edelman talks about his own theories about the structure of the human brain -- which involves neuronal group selection, and puts an enormous emphasis on the importance of individual variation.
The Paced Visual Serial Addition Task PVSATT) [28] is an addition task heavily dependent on frontal brain regions, which involves higher order executive functioning.
These receptors also have novel roles in synaptic potentiation in the BLA, not reported in other brain regions, which involves numerous synapses and occurs after low-frequency stimulation (Li et al., 2001).
It is a brain surgery technique which involves electrodes being inserted to reach targets deep inside the brain.
The transmission of this signal from the exposure of the fragrance molecule to our brain leads to interpretation of the scent in our brain centers, which involve memory, sensory perception, general processing center, and to a gland in our brain that mediates chemical secretion into our blood and other parts of our brain, just to name a few effects.
In 1839, Guillaume Dupuytren described brain contusions, which involve many small hemorrhages, as contusio cerebri and showed the difference between unconsciousness associated with damage to the brain parenchyma and that due to concussion, without such injury.
