  1. 1. Astrocyt biomarkörer vid neurotoxicitet

    Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för farmaceutisk biovetenskap

    Författare :Simel Danho; [2024]
    Nyckelord :Primer design; primer testning; hög dos gammastrålning; qPCR;

    Sammanfattning : Abstrakt Bakgrund: Barn som drabbas med tumörer behöver genomgå strålbehandling. För att uppnå optimala behandlingsresultat krävs sederingar eller generella anestesi. Tidigare studier har indikerat att strålningsspecifika effekter påverkade kognitiva funktioner hos barn. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Inhibitory control in adults with ADHD

    Kandidat-uppsats, Högskolan i Skövde/Institutionen för biovetenskap

    Författare :Zoey Gard; [2023]
    Nyckelord :ADHD; inhibition; fmri; inhibitory control;

    Sammanfattning : Inhibitory control refers to a person’s ability to control responses and impulses. Deficits in inhibitory control have been found in the neurodevelopmental disorder of Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), though this has mainly been studied in children. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Neural correlates of emotion recognition in psychopaths : A systematic review

    Kandidat-uppsats, Högskolan i Skövde/Institutionen för biovetenskap

    Författare :Jenna Norlin; Rendek Saadula; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Psychopathy; emotion recognition; brain; psychopathy checklist-revised; emotion processing;

    Sammanfattning : Science has recently begun showing interest in the different mechanisms of the psychopathic brain, and current scientific research points to deficits in the structural and functional brain regions of psychopaths. Psychopathy is a disorder distinguished by its persistent antisocial behavior, emotional callousness, grandiose self-estimation, and lack of empathy. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Traumatic brain injury and its impact on working memory : A systematic review

    Kandidat-uppsats, Högskolan i Skövde/Institutionen för biovetenskap

    Författare :Li Hallgren; Naema Adani Mohammed; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Traumatic brain injury; working memory; prefrontal cortex; functional magnetic resonance imaging; transcranial direct current stimulation;

    Sammanfattning : The purpose of this systematic review is to provide insight into the impact traumatic brain injury (TBI) has on the executive function known as the working memory. TBI is a damage to the brain that occurs when the brain is critically injured to the degree that it impacts several brain regions and functions such as the hippocampus, its surrounding areas, the prefrontal cortex, and the performance of the working memory ability.

  7. 5. Psilocybin Induced Psychedelic Experiences : their Neural Mechanisms and Efficacy for Treating Depressive Disorders

    Kandidat-uppsats, Högskolan i Skövde/Institutionen för biovetenskap

    Författare :Linda Lindecrantz; Nicklas Villman; [2023]
    Nyckelord :psilocybin; depression; fMRI; systematic review; DMN;

    Sammanfattning : The aim of this systematic review is to present the current literature on the therapeutic potential of the classic psychedelic compound psilocybin for depressive disorders and the neurocognitive mechanisms involved recorded with functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI). A comprehensive literature search was conducted in the electronic databases Web of Science, Scopus and Medline EBSCO using a Boolean search string containing the keywords psilocybin, depression, fMRI, MRI and PET.
