In auditory perturbation stress the detrimental effects of stress indicated by increased errors and increases in plasma concentrations of epinephrine, norepinephrine, and corticosterone were decreased by Ginkgo biloba extract EGb 761 [ 25].
Because impaired selective attention assessed by increased error counts of the ATMT [ 24] was observed after the fatigue-inducing task, and the selective attention process activates the PFC and ACC [ 39- 42], acute mental load might introduce temporary dysfunctions in the PFC and ACC to cause decreased parasympathetic and increased sympathetic activities.
12 Our data suggest a progressive age-dependent accumulation of point mutations in the patients, and the finding that most occur at very low individual frequencies (<1%) suggests that these are acquired somatic mutations caused by increased error rate and/or impaired repair function of POLG.
Additional CT's secondary current distortion caused by repeatable transients results in increased error of indirect measurement of rms values of power line's current higher harmonics and additional inaccuracy of power quality estimation.
Inactivation of dmPFC (muscimol) resulted in increased errors and increased the temporal variability of responding.
Sleepiness causes cognitive slowing, reduced attention, increased automatic behavior, and increased errors (for example, medical errors made by interns and motor vehicle crashes) (6, 15).
As can be seen in Fig. 6 this resulted in increased errors, in particular in the case of low velocities.
Secondly, the impairment was reflected by increased number of swap errors, whereby participants reported in a fairly precise manner a feature of another item held in memory that was not probed.
Power in grazing trials could potentially be improved by increased tolerance of type I or II errors; increasing the df in the denominator of F-tests; and reducing experimental, sampling, and measurement errors.
This observation has led to the hypothesis that ribavirin's antiviral activity results from error catastrophe caused by increased mutagenesis of viral genomes.
