    Topography of synchronization of somatosensory evoked potentials elicited by stimulation of the sciatic nerve in rat

    No full text
    Purpose: Traditionally, the topography of somatosensory evoked potentials (SEPs) is generated based on amplitude and latency. However, this operation focuses on the physical morphology and field potential-power, so it suffers from difficulties in performing identification in an objective manner. In this study, measurement of the synchronization of SEPs is proposed as a method to explore brain functional networks as well as the plasticity after peripheral nerve injury. Method: SEPs elicited by unilateral sciatic nerve stimulation in twelve adult male Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats in the normal group were compared with SEPs evoked after unilateral sciatic nerve hemisection in four peripheral nerve injured SD rats. The characterization of synchronized networks from SEPs was conducted using equal-time correlation, correlation matrix analysis, and comparison to randomized surrogate data. Eigenvalues of the correlation matrix were used to identify the clusters of functionally synchronized neuronal activity, and the participation index (PI) was calculated to indicate the involvement of each channel in the cluster. The PI value at the knee point of the PI histogram was used as a threshold to demarcate the cortical boundary. Results: Ten out of the twelve normal rats showed only one synchronized brain network. The remaining two normal rats showed one strong and one weak network. In the peripheral nerve injured group, only one synchronized brain network was found in each rat. In the normal group, all network shapes appear regular and the network is largely contained in the posterior cortex. In the injured group, the network shapes appear irregular, the network extends anteriorly and posteriorly, and the network area is significantly larger. There are considerable individual variations in the shape and location of the network after peripheral nerve injury. Conclusion: The proposed method can detect functional brain networks. Compared to the results of the traditional SEP-morphology-based analysis method, the synchronized functional network area is much larger. Furthermore, the proposed method can also characterize the rapid cortical plasticity after a peripheral nerve is acutely injured

    The NKI-Rockland Sample: A Model for Accelerating the Pace of Discovery Science in Psychiatry

    No full text
    The National Institute of Mental Health strategic plan for advancing psychiatric neuroscience calls for an acceleration of discovery and the delineation of developmental trajectories for risk and resilience across the lifespan. To attain these objectives, sufficiently powered datasets with broad and deep phenotypic characterization, state-of-the-art neuroimaging, and genetic samples must be generated and made openly available to the scientific community. The enhanced Nathan Kline Institute Rockland Sample (NKI-RS) is a response to this need. NKI-RS is an ongoing, institutionally-centered endeavor aimed at creating a large-scale (N>1000), deeply phenotyped, community-ascertained, lifespan sample (ages 6-85 years old) with advanced neuroimaging and genetics. These data will be publically shared, openly and prospectively (i.e., on a weekly basis). Herein, we describe the conceptual basis of the NKI-RS, including study design, sampling considerations, and steps to synchronize phenotypic and neuroimaging assessment. Additionally, we describe our process for sharing the data with the scientific community while protecting participant confidentiality, maintaining an adequate database, and certifying data integrity. The pilot phase of the NKI-RS, including challenges in recruiting, characterizing, imaging, and sharing data, is discussed while also explaining how this experience informed the final design of the enhanced NKI-RS. It is our hope that familiarity with the conceptual underpinnings of the enhanced NKI-RS will facilitate harmonization with future data collection efforts aimed at advancing psychiatric neuroscience and nosology

The reports consist of analytical, programmatic, feasibility or budgetary reports dealing with planning, administration, teaching, the functions of the university system and other subjects.l THE CALIFORNIA STATE UNIVERSITY AND COLLEGES Office of the Chancellor 5670 Wilshire Boulevard Los Angeles, California 90036 Report to the Board of Trustees on Speakers Paid From Student Body Funds April 1 - June 30, 1972 Prepared by: Office of Student Affairs July, 1972 BACKGROUND The Board of Trustees adopted the following resolution at its September 22, 1971 meeting: RESOLVED, By the Board of Trustees of the California State Colleges, that a report be presented to the Board within fifteen days of the close of each calendar quarter, listing those outside speakers who had appeared at each State College during the period covered to whom or on whose behalf payments were made from student body funds for fees and expenses amounting to more than 100.00intheaggregateandlistingineachcase,biographicalinformationaboutthespeaker,thetopicsandtheamountoffeesandexpensespaid.TheBoardshallreviewtherequirementsofproducingsuchreportsoneyearfromthistime.ThisisthethirdintheseriesofreportsandcoverstheperiodApril1throughJune30,1972.SUMMARYOFCURRENTREPORTTwoStateColleges(BakersfieldandSonoma)haveneitherastudentgovernmentnorastudentbodyfee,thuswerenotrequiredtosubmitreports.Oftheremaining17institutions,one(DominguezHills)reportednostudentfeeexpenditureofonehundreddollarsormoreforout­sidespeakers.Chart1shows,byinstitution,thenumberandtotalcostsofspeakerspaidonehundreddollarsormorefromstudentbodyfeesfortheperiodApril1throughJune30,1972.Atotalof100.00 in the aggregate and listing in each case, biographical information about the speaker, the topics and the amount of fees and expenses paid. The Board shall review the requirements of producing such reports one year from this time. This is the third in the series of reports and covers the period April 1 through June 30, 1972. SUMMARY OF CURRENT REPORT Two State Colleges (Bakersfield and Sonoma) have neither a student government nor a student body fee, thus were not required to submit reports. Of the remaining 17 institutions, one (Dominguez Hills) reported no student fee expenditure of one hundred dollars or more for out­side speakers. Chart 1 shows, by institution, the number and total costs of speakers paid one hundred dollars or more from student body fees for the period April 1 through June 30, 1972. A total of 39,803.80 was paid to 107 speakers during this time period.

The major conclusion of the book -- that childless marriages are happier -- has generated controversy , but has drawn support from marriage coun­sel ors , organizations concerned with overpopulation, and from many coupl es themselves, both with and without children. Mrs . Peck ' s remarks before the Commissi on of Popu­l ation Growth and the American future have been widely quoted on Walter Cronkite's CBS News and other major news outlets . Mrs . Peck has written numerous articles on marriage , sexuality, ecology , adolescent life (and even on child raising) f or such magazines as PAGEANT , COSMOPOLITAN, TEEN, and TODAY ' S HEALTH , and has oft en appeared on nationwide television shows such as the Johnny Carson and Virgini a Graham shows . Mrs . Peck ' s syndicat ed young-adult advi ce column appears regul arly in forty newspapers, including the Chi cago TRIBUNE , the Balti more SUN , the Detroit FREE PRESS , the Philadelphia INQUIRER, the Cleveland PLAIN DEALER, the Miami HERALD , the Boston HERALD , and the Houston CHRONICLE. A native of central Illinois and a graduate of Illinois State University, Mrs . Peck , now 28 , l ives in Balti more , Maryland , with her husband William Peck who is also a writer. She and her husband -- childless by choice -- are representative of a new life style based on the larger family of the community rather t han the nucl ear family. They travel extensively , work actively with young people's groups and f or political candidates, and contri bute to the support of a Cherokee Indian child.

GARRETT DEBELL -- April 18 , 1972 Biographical Information - - At the UNESCO Conference on the Environment in San Fr an­cisco , November 1969 , Garrett DeBell first met David Brower , President of Fri ends- of­the Earth . From that meeting the idea for the Environmental Handbook was f i rst con­ceived . I ts purpose was t o provide the intelligent layman wi th the best possibl e information on the environmental crisis and suggest courses of positive action . Even before Earth Day 1970 the Handbook was used , and continues to be used , by educators , university groups and civic organizations throughout the country . On the New York Times Bestseller List for weeks, over one million copies have been sold. A powerful, rapid- fire speaker , Garrett DeBell ' s speeches during the week of Earth Day ranged from Notre Dame to Michigan State to Washington and Lee and Langley High School. Students readily relate to his free-flowing , informal style of speaking . His newest book, THE VOTER'S GUIDE TO ENVIRONMENTAL POLITI CS : BEFORE, DURING AND AFTER ELECTION , is based on his experience as a registered lobbyist and as an ecologist representing Zero Population Growth . It i s Garrett ' s belief that the average voter can be more effective through his legislators if armed with facts and a better understanding of Congressional procedures . Garrett DeBell's interest in ecology began early in life in the mountains and deserts of the West . He subsequently earned a BA in biology from Stanford University and began work on a PhD in Ecology at the University of California . Frustrated by ecology programs t oo specialized t o be effective , Garrett dropped out of u.c. to devote his energies to more activist and rewarding methods of dealing with the environmental crisis . Working with small groups and teaching ecology at a free student-run university he quickly developed a rapport with students and more dedi­cated young people . The students ' feeling of ali enation from existing conservation policies only reinforced his belief in the activist ' s role for a decent environment. As more professional and aware people take on the struggle for a higher quality of living, and the ecologi cal crisis is slowly solved, he plans on studying further the specialized species of wolf spiders .

GARRETT DEBELL -- April 18 , 1972 Biographical Information - - At the UNESCO Conference on the Environment in San Fr an­cisco , November 1969 , Garrett DeBell first met David Brower , President of Fri ends- of­the Earth . From that meeting the idea for the Environmental Handbook was f i rst con­ceived . I ts purpose was t o provide the intelligent layman wi th the best possibl e information on the environmental crisis and suggest courses of positive action . Even before Earth Day 1970 the Handbook was used , and continues to be used , by educators , university groups and civic organizations throughout the country . On the New York Times Bestseller List for weeks, over one million copies have been sold. A powerful, rapid- fire speaker , Garrett DeBell ' s speeches during the week of Earth Day ranged from Notre Dame to Michigan State to Washington and Lee and Langley High School. Students readily relate to his free-flowing , informal style of speaking . His newest book, THE VOTER'S GUIDE TO ENVIRONMENTAL POLITI CS : BEFORE, DURING AND AFTER ELECTION , is based on his experience as a registered lobbyist and as an ecologist representing Zero Population Growth . It i s Garrett ' s belief that the average voter can be more effective through his legislators if armed with facts and a better understanding of Congressional procedures . Garrett DeBell's interest in ecology began early in life in the mountains and deserts of the West . He subsequently earned a BA in biology from Stanford University and began work on a PhD in Ecology at the University of California . Frustrated by ecology programs t oo specialized t o be effective , Garrett dropped out of u.c. to devote his energies to more activist and rewarding methods of dealing with the environmental crisis . Working with small groups and teaching ecology at a free student-run university he quickly developed a rapport with students and more dedi­cated young people . The students ' feeling of ali enation from existing conservation policies only reinforced his belief in the activist ' s role for a decent environment. As more professional and aware people take on the struggle for a higher quality of living, and the ecologi cal crisis is slowly solved, he plans on studying further the specialized species of wolf spiders .
