Critical Periods: Motion Sensitivity Is Early in All Areas
نویسنده
چکیده
Recent work shows that global motion sensitivity, a property of extrastriate cortex, can be altered by early visual deprivation, while binocularity, a property of primary visual cortex, is still plastic. This contradicts the hypothesis that critical periods end later at higher levels of the system.

متن کاملThe development of speed discrimination abilities
The processing of speed is a critical part of a child's visual development, allowing children to track and interact with moving objects. Despite such importance, no study has investigated the developmental trajectory of speed discrimination abilities or precisely when these abilities become adult-like. Here, we measured speed discrimination thresholds in 5-, 7-, 9-, 11-year-olds and adults usin...

In the past years, there was a tendency to excise the patella in pathologic conditions affecting this bone. The patella has many critical effects in the function of the knee joint. For example, after its exicision the force of quadriceps muscle decreases by forty percent (40%) and the knee joint becomes prone to early osteoarthritic changes. For these reasons, in the recent years the "biologic ...
متن کاملCarbapenem restriction and its Effect on Bacterial Resistance in an Intensive Care unit of a Teaching Hospital
Development of antibiotic resistance in Intensive Care Units (ICUs) is a worldwide problem. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of an antibiotic stewardship program (ASP) by carbapenems restriction on gram-negative antimicrobial resistance in ICU. The study was designed in a 21 bedded general ICU of a teaching hospital with two wings (one and two) in Tehran, Iran. Carbapenem pr...
