Researchers identified three different MINAR2 genetic mutations that were responsible for deafness in 13 people from four different families.
Findings reveal female patients were perceived to be in less pain than males who reported and exhibited the same level of pain intensity.
Higher pain intensity was linked to reductions in working memory ability and increased activity in the ventromedial prefrontal cortex.
Researchers report the ABR hearing test given to newborns to detect auditory problems could be adapted to identify infants at risk of autism spectrum disorder.
Previous studies of related coronaviruses SARS and MERS found blocking DPP4 activity reduced inflammatory response. Researchers suggest drugs that target DPP4 could help to reduce the overexpression of inflammatory cytokines seen in severe COVID-19.
15-month-old infants with an older sibling on the autism spectrum, and who experience social difficulties, such as insecure-resistant parental attachment, are more than nine times more likely to be diagnosed with ASD.
Study finds few differences in the profiles of genes that influence cognition between those with severe mental health disorders and the general population.
Researchers present their findings about the acute neurosensory symptoms experienced by workers in the Havana embassy exposed to a unique sound and pressure phenomenon in 2016.
Researchers investigate the neuroscience behind how some people are better at resisting temptation that others.
A new study examines how falling victim to a natural disaster, such as a hurricane, can impact a child's mental health. Researchers hope the study will help physicians to identify those children most at need of social support services following a disaster to aid their recovery.
According to researchers, brain signals in specific brain areas change during a lifespan in ways that could be vital for maintaining flexibility.
Researchers investigate how high level cognitive processing occurs by looking at how different brain regions are connected.
