Altering Cortical Connectivity: Remediation-Induced Changes in the White Matter of Poor Readers
Neuroimaging studies using diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) have revealed regions of cerebral white matter with decreased microstructural organization (lowerfractional anisotropy or FA) among poor readers. We examined whether 100 hr of intensive remedial instruction affected the white matter of 8- to 10-year-old poor readers. Prior to instruction, poor readers had significantly lower FA than good...
متن کاملCortical auditory signal processing in poor readers.
Magnetoencephalographic responses recorded from auditory cortex evoked by brief and rapidly successive stimuli differed between adults with poor vs. good reading abilities in four important ways. First, the response amplitude evoked by short-duration acoustic stimuli was stronger in the post-stimulus time range of 150-200 ms in poor readers than in normal readers. Second, response amplitude to ...
متن کاملVisuotopic cortical connectivity underlying attention revealed with white-matter tractography.
Visual attention selects behaviorally relevant information for detailed processing by resolving competition for representation among stimuli in retinotopically organized visual cortex. The signals that control this attentional biasing are thought to arise in a frontoparietal network of several brain regions, including posterior parietal cortex. Recent studies have revealed a topographic organiz...

diameter and thickness of the myelin sheath) may be selectively impacted in large fibers, under the influence of testosterone, with pathological consequences. Kimura and Itami describe variability in axon diameter and degree of myelination, relating this to areaspecific differences in conduction velocity and implications for network integration. Finally, white matter has long been well-known to...
