The identification of genes underlying complex quantitative traits such as grain yield by means of conventional genetic analysis (positional cloning) requires the development of several large mapping populations. However, it …more
Context Brain Iron Deposits (IDs) are associated with neurodegenerative diseases and impaired cognitive function in later life, but their cause is unknown. Animal studies have found evidence of relationships between …more
To explore the possible neural foundations of individual differences in intelligence test scores, we examined the associations between Raven’s Matrices scores and two tasks that were administered in a functional …more
Judging people on the basis of cultural stereotypes is a ubiquitous facet of daily life, yet little is known about how this fundamental inferential strategy is implemented in the brain. …more
Data from prior studies using serial imaging and post mortem data support the possibility that at least some cases of apparent primary intracerebral haemorrhage are due to early haemorrhagic transformation …more
AIMS: To develop and evaluate an image grading external quality assurance system for the Scottish Diabetic Retinopathy Screening Programme. METHOD: A web-based image grading system was developed which closely matches …more
An analysis procedure is presented that enables the acquisition and visualization of physiologically relevant parameters using dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging. The first stage of the process involves the use …more
PURPOSE. Extraocular muscle afferent signals contribute to oculomotor control and visual localization. Prompted by the close links between the oculomotor and attention systems, it was investigated whether these proprioceptive signals …more
The enantiomeric assay of fluoroalkanes using H-2-NMR in a chiral liquid crystalline medium is demonstrated, and at its limit the enantiomers of [5-H-2]-5-fluorodecane were successfully resolved.
Both the corollary discharge of the oculomotor command and eye muscle proprioception provide eye position information to the brain. Two contradictory models have been suggested about how these two sources …more
Over the last decade a range of studies have shown that some patients with hemispatial neglect subjectively underestimate the size of objects presented in their contralesional hemispace. Recently, it has …more
BACKGROUND: Preserved Ratio Impaired Spirometry (PRISm), defined as a reduced FEV1 in the setting of a preserved FEV1/FVC ratio, is highly prevalent and is associated with increased respiratory symptoms, systemic …more
