Low-frequency arterial pressure fluctuations do not reflect sympathetic outflow: gender and age differences.
Low-frequency arterial pressure oscillations (Mayer waves) have been proposed as an index of vascular sympathetic outflow. However, cross-sectional differences in these pressure oscillations may not reflect different levels of sympathetic nervous outflow in humans. Three groups of healthy subjects with characteristically different sympathetic nervous outflow were studied: young females ( n = 10...
متن کاملGender differences in multitasking reflect spatial ability.
Demands involving the scheduling and interleaving of multiple activities have become increasingly prevalent, especially for women in both their paid and unpaid work hours. Despite the ubiquity of everyday requirements to multitask, individual and gender-related differences in multitasking have gained minimal attention in past research. In two experiments, participants completed a multitasking s...
متن کاملLocal category-specific gamma band responses in the visual cortex do not reflect conscious perception.
Which neural processes underlie our conscious experience? One theoretical view argues that the neural correlates of consciousness (NCC) reside in local activity in sensory cortices. Accordingly, local category-specific gamma band responses in visual cortex correlate with conscious perception. However, as most studies manipulated conscious perception by altering the amount of sensory evidence, i...
متن کاملAre Gender Differences in Performance Innate or Socially Mediated?1
To explain persistent gender gaps in market outcomes, a lab experimental literature explores whether women and men have innate differences in ability (or attitudes or preferences), and a separate field-based literature studies discrimination against women in market settings. We posit that even if women have innate ability that is comparable to that of men, their relative performance may suffer ...
متن کاملGender differences in endothelium-dependent relaxations do not involve NO in porcine coronary arteries.
Experiments were designed to determine whether normal fluctuations in endogenous sex steroid hormones and/or gender affect endothelium-dependent relaxations in coronary arteries, and, if so, to identify endothelium-derived factors contributing to these differences. Coronary arteries from sexually mature, gonadally intact male and female pigs or ovariectomized pigs were prepared either for study...
