Effects of Nicotine and Attention on Frequency Tuning in Auditory Cortex
Nicotine enhances auditory-cognitive function because it mimics the brain's system for "paying attention" to important sounds amid distractions (for example, understanding speech in a noisy environment). In part, nicotine does this by activating inhibitory neurons in the auditory cortex. Since age-related hearing deficits result, in part, from the loss of …
Respiratory Physiotherapy as a Tool to Increase the Number of Solid Organ Donors
The main objective of the project is to determine the variation of PaO2 / FiO2 (PaFi) after the use of mechanical insufflation-exsufflation (MI-E) or mechanical cough assistant in the donor in brain death (DBD) and in the potential donor in control donor after circulatory death (cDCD) It is a randomized …
Smartphones for Opiate Addiction Recovery
Treatments for opioid addiction exist, but effectiveness is compromised when subjects use illicit opiates during treatment. Reuse rates during treatment can be high, and reducing illicit opiate use during treatment has thus recently become a major NIDA policy goal. The 5-minute battery indicates the numerical probability that a patient will …
