(Eden). But not a word of guidance. My case of measles was a Shetlander, aged 31, v-para, who had not had measles previously. To add to her anxiety her last confinement, two years previously, had been abnormal, an arm and the cord being prolapsed, but it ended happily. She also had felt far from well all through this pregnancy. About a fortnight before term one of her older children developed m...

A combination of anatomical, histological and physiological data from wild-type and null-mutated mice have established crucial roles for BDNF and NT3 in gustatory and somatosensory innervation of the tongue, and indeed for proper development of the papillary surface of the tongue. BDNF is expressed in taste buds, NT3 in many surrounding epithelial structures. Absence of BDNF in mice leads to se...

X have already published details of several cases of amoebic dysentery, hepatitis and liver abscess successfully treated by hypodermic injections of soluble salts of emetine (1 and 2) in which the rapidity of recovery from both very acute and very chronic attacks was 1 emavkable. Wrhat is wanted, however, to enable the merits of the new method to be estimated, is a consecutive series of cases o...

Individual differences in cognitive efficiency, particularly in relation to working memory (WM), have been associated both with personality dimensions that reflect enduring regularities in brain configuration, and with short-term neural plasticity, that reflects task-related changes in brain connectivity. To elucidate the relationship of these two divergent mechanisms, we tested the hypothesis ...

Phasic and tonic γ-aminobutyric acidA (GABAA) receptor-mediated inhibition critically regulate neuronal information processing. As these two inhibitory modalities have distinctive features in their receptor composition, subcellular localization of receptors, and the timing of receptor activation, it has been thought that they might exert distinct roles, if not completely separable, in the regul...
