Decreased activation along the dorsal visual pathway after a 3-month treatment with Galantamine in mild Alzheimer's disease
(Wolters Kluwer, 2009)Visual perception has been shown to be altered in Alzheimer?s disease (AD) patients and it is associated with decreased cognitive function. Galantamine is an active cholinergic agent, which has been shown to lead to ... -
A Deep Look Into Erionite Fibres: an Electron Microscopy Investigation of their Self-Assembly.
(2015)The exposure of humans to erionite fibres of appropriate morphology and dimension has been unambiguously linked to the occurrence of Malignant Mesothelioma. For this reason, a detailed morpho-structural investigation through ... -
Deep sleep maintains learning efficiency of the human brain
(2017)It is hypothesized that deep sleep is essential for restoring the brain’s capacity to learn efficiently, especially in regions heavily activated during the day. However, causal evidence in humans has been lacking due to ... -
Defective suppression in the autologous mixed lymphocyte reaction in patients with Crohn's disease
(BMJ, 1989)T helper and suppressor cell control of autologous immunoglobulin production was measured in 14 patients with Crohn's disease (CD) using autologous B cells or monocytes to stimulate regulatory T-cell activity. A pronounced ... -
Delayed P100-Like Latencies in Multiple Sclerosis: A Preliminary Investigation Using Visual Evoked Spread Spectrum Analysis.
(2016)Conduction along the optic nerve is often slowed in multiple sclerosis (MS). This is typically assessed by measuring the latency of the P100 component of the Visual Evoked Potential (VEP) using electroencephalography. The ... -
Dementia in older people admitted to hospital: a regional multi-hospital observational study of prevalence, associations and case recognition.

Demonstration of high-brightness-mode propagation in a compound waveguide structure
(American Institute of Physics, 1999)We demonstrate the existence of an unusual and useful high-brightness guided mode of a multimode AlGaAs/GaAs heterostructure compound slab waveguide. This mode has a narrow near-field single lobe confined to the low-index ... -
Deoxycholate induces COX-2 expression via Erk1/2-, p38-MAPK and AP-1-dependent mechanisms in esophageal cancer cells
(BioMed Central, 2009)Background The progression from Barrett's metaplasia to adenocarcinoma is associated with the acquirement of an apoptosis-resistant phenotype. The bile acid deoxycholate (DCA) has been proposed to play an important role ... -
