Investigating the effects of a randomized, double-blinded aerobic, resistance, and cognitive training clinical trial on neurocognitive function in older adults with cardiovascular risk factors: the ACTIONcardioRisk protocol

Author(s): Bherer L; Vrinceanu T; Dupuy EG; Gayda M; Vincent T; Magnan PO; Mohammadi H; Gauthier C; Gagnon C; Duchesne S; Erickson KI; Gagnon D; Lesage F; Lupien S; Poirier J; Dubé MP; Thorin É; Juneau M; Breton J; Belleville S; Ferland G; Gaudreau ...

Background: Lifestyle factors like exercise and cognitive stimulation might help improve cognitive performance in older adults. However, studies investigating this, reported mixed results. Most of the data supporting the benefit of exercise comes from cross-sectional studies, cohort studies, or s ...

Modulation of cue value and the augmentation of heroin seeking in chronically food-restricted male rats under withdrawal

Author(s): Firas Sedki

Food restriction augments drug seeking in abstinent rats. The underlying motivational mechanisms, however, remain unclear. We hypothesized that caloric restriction enhances the incentive value attributed to drug-associated cues and, in turn, augments drug seeking. Male rats were trained to lever-press for heroin, and then moved to the animal colony for a ...

Visuo-motor transformations in the intraparietal sulcus mediate the acquisition of endovascular medical skill

Author(s): Paul KI; Mueller K; Rousseau PN; Glathe A; Taatgen NA; Cnossen F; Lanzer P; Villringer A; Steele CJ;

Performing endovascular medical interventions safely and efficiently requires a diverse set of skills that need to be practised in dedicated training sessions. Here, we used multimodal magnetic resonance (MR) imaging to determine the structural and functional plasticity and core skills associated ...

Global urban environmental change drives adaptation in white clover

Author(s): Santangelo JS; Ness RW; Cohan B; Fitzpatrick CR; Innes SG; Koch S; Miles LS; Munim S; Peres-Neto PR; Prashad C; Tong AT; Aguirre WE; Akinwole PO; Alberti M; Álvarez J; Anderson JT; Anderson JJ; Ando Y; Andrew NR; Angeoletto F; Anstett DN ...

Urbanization transforms environments in ways that alter biological evolution. We examined whether urban environmental change drives parallel evolution by sampling 110,019 white clover plants from 6169 populations in 160 cities globally. Plants were assayed for a Mendelian antiherbivore defense th ...

Mental rotation ability predicts the acquisition of basic endovascular skills

Author(s): Paul KI; Glathe A; Taatgen NA; Steele CJ; Villringer A; Lanzer P; Cnossen F;

Due to the increasing complexity of diseases in the aging population and rapid progress in catheter-based technology, the demands on operators' skills in conducting endovascular interventions (EI) has increased dramatically, putting more emphasis on training. However, it is not well understood which factors influence learning and performance. In the p ...
