The time course of temporal discrimination: An ERP study
No full textAuditory processing during sleep was investigated in premature infants by auditory event related potentials
(AERPs). Twenty-six premature infants (mean GA 30 week– range 25–35) admitted to a neonatal intensive
care unit were studied, prior to discharge, in active and quiet sleep at a mean post-conceptional age of
35 weeks. Infant state was determined by behavioral observation according to standard criteria. An auditory
odd-ball paradigm was used with frequently occurring ‘standard’ tones at 1000 Hz and infrequent ‘deviant’
tones at 2000 Hz. Waveforms were recorded at Fz, Cz, Pz, T3 and T4 scalp locations. Measurements were
performed in 18 patients because 8 preterm infants were excluded since they had less than the required
artifact-free deviant trials in each sleep state. The responses to standard tones were equally recorded in both
active and quiet sleep, but auditory responses to deviant tones consisting of an increased frontal negativity in
the time period from 200 to 300 ms after the stimulus were recorded only in active sleep. A significant effect of
electrode placement, for frontal location by sleep condition and sleep condition by 50 ms time windows was
shown by repeated measures analyses of variance. The significance of these findings on evoked potential
methodology in preterm infants admitted to neonatal intensive care unit is discussed
EEG signs of vigilance fluctuations preceding perceptual flips in multistable illusionary motion
No full textThis EEG study was performed to clarify the time course of brain electrical events and possible vigilance changes associated with perceptual flips during multistable perception. 13 healthy subjects (28.5 3.8 years) were recorded with a 21-channel digital EEG during a stroboscopic alternative motion paradigm implying illusionary motion with ambiguous direction. Perceptual flips were preceded by a significant decrease of EEG frequencies, and followed by a significant frequency increase with a trend to overshoot. EEG slowing is a reliable sign of vigilance decrease and can be related to thalamic deactivation. This is consistent with a recent fMRI study, which showed thalamic deactivation associated with perceptual flips. The study added important chronological information about this phenomenon and allows the conclusion that reduced vigilance facilitates perceptual discontinuities during multistable perception
Social cognition in individuals born preterm
No full textAbstract Faces hold a substantial value for effective social interactions and sharing. Covering faces with masks, due to COVID-19 regulations, may lead to difficulties in using social signals, in particular, in individuals with neurodevelopmental conditions. Daily-life social participation of individuals who were born preterm is of immense importance for their quality of life. Here we examined face tuning in individuals (aged 12.79 ± 1.89 years) who were born preterm and exhibited signs of periventricular leukomalacia (PVL), a dominant form of brain injury in preterm birth survivors. For assessing the face sensitivity in this population, we implemented a recently developed experimental tool, a set of Face-n-Food images bordering on the style of Giuseppe Arcimboldo. The key benefit of these images is that single components do not trigger face processing. Although a coarse face schema is thought to be hardwired in the brain, former preterms exhibit substantial shortages in the face tuning not only compared with typically developing controls but also with individuals with autistic spectrum disorders. The lack of correlations between the face sensitivity and other cognitive abilities indicates that these deficits are domain-specific. This underscores impact of preterm birth sequelae for social functioning at large. Comparison of the findings with data in individuals with other neurodevelopmental and neuropsychiatric conditions provides novel insights into the origins of deficient face processing
