Verbs and nouns in awake neurosurgery: needs and answers
Awake surgery is a surgical procedure applied to people with brain tumors. Patients are kept awake during surgery to perform language tasks during electrical stimulation of cortico-subcortical brain structures. When the application of electrical pulses to the brain repeatedly triggers errors, this …

Spatiotemporal Dynamics of Tissue Oxygenation in Awake, Behaving Mice
… Recent studies of functional hyperemia in awake rodents shows a bimodal arteriole diameter increase when neural activity is prolonged, indicating at least two primary control mechanisms for an early and late phase. However, it is unclear if the early and late components of the hemodynamic …

Mesoscale activated states gate spiking in the awake brain
… the generation of spike patterns in the awake brain has remained limited. Current models emphasize either seconds-scale global states shared by most neurons in a network, or the fast input integration occurring in single neurons over the few milliseconds preceding spiking, but it's not …

Neural Dynamics in the Developing Piriform Cortex of Awake Rats
… potential (LFP) activity in piriform cortex of awake rats during the first three weeks of life (P0-21). At birth, the piriform LFP exhibits respiration and spindle oscillations in response to odor stimuli. Spindle oscillations increase in frequency until they reach adult beta oscillation values …

Oxygen Polarography in the Awake Macaque: Bridging BOLD fMRI and Electrophysiology
… oxygen polarographic recording system in the awake macaques as a surrogate for BOLD fMRI. Oxygen polarography measures tissue oxygen which is coupled to blood oxygen. This tool offers higher resolution than BOLD fMRI and can be more readily combined with electrophysiology.</p><p>Using this new …

Olfactory Processing in the Piriform Cortex of Awake, Freely Moving Mice
<p>The piriform cortex (PC) has long been established as the primary cortical recipient of olfactory information in the mammalian brain. In rodents, information extracted from recordings of PC neurons can accurately decode the identity of odors, leading to delineation of PC as the primary cortical …

Pre-operative Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging: Application to Tumour Resection by Awake Craniotomy
… platform for advanced language mapping during awake craniotomy procedures”, describes the development of a platform that enables behavioural testing to be standardized with respect to pre-operative fMRI, and enables sophisticated testing paradigms to be administered during DCS. The testing …

Anxiety and it's management during awake procedures in operating theatres. A survey and randomised controlled trial.
… management of intra-operative anxiety during awake surgery. Plastic and vascular surgical patients were selected for the study as many procedures performed within these specialities are performed under local or regional anaesthesia. The study consists of two distinct stages. The first stage …

Effects of the Lubo cervical collar on airway patency in awake adults – A magnetic resonance imaging study
… soft palate with and without the Lubo collar in awake volunteers using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Fourteen participants each underwent two MRI scans of the upper airway: A control scan with no Lubo collar, and an intervention scan with the Lubo collar applied and jaw thrust mechanism …

Detection power, temporal response, and spatial resolution of IRON fMRI in awake, behaving monkeys at 3 Tesla
… resolution of IRON contrast for fMRI within the awake, behaving monkey. Understanding these issues provides insights into the physiology of the functional response to local changes in brain activity, enables researchers to optimize experimental designs, and delineates the advantages and …

Functional and oncological outcomes after right hemisphere glioma resection in awake versus asleep patients: a systematic review and meta‐analysis
El hemisferio derecho ha sido subestimado al considerarse como el hemisferio no dominante. Sin embargo, participa en muchas funciones, incluido el movimiento, el lenguaje, la cognición y las emociones. Por lo tanto, debido a que las lesiones de este lado generalmente no se resecan mediante mapeo …

Spatio-temporal dynamics of spontaneous neural activity during the transition from slow oscillations to an awake-like state in isolated cortical networks
… SO break down, giving rise to asynchronous awake-like states or micro-arousals. There is currently a shortage of quantitative techniques to detect such state transitions in neurophysiological record- ings. Notably, the disentanglement of non-stationary oscillatory signals embedded in …

“Ownership gets you up in the morning, but can keep you awake at night” An exploration of the development of work-related psychological ownership in early career professionals.
Studies of Psychological Ownership (PO) have captured the imagination of scholars in organisational research and beyond due to the many suggested positive outcomes which occur from feelings of “mine”. Nevertheless, the initial conceptualisation of PO has been under investigated, leaving early …
