Functional connectivity within sensorimotor cortical and striatal regions is regulated by sepsis in a sex-dependent manner by Quan Vo, Zachary D. Simon, Gwoncheol Park, Dina C Nacionales, Carmelina Gorski, Evan L Barrios, Gemma Casadesus, Philip A Efron, Lyle L Moldawer, Ravinder Nagpal, Paramita Chakrabarty, Marcelo Febo

“…Sepsis is a state of systemic immune dysregulation and organ failure that is frequently associated with severe brain disability. Epidemiological studies have indicated that younger females have better prognosis and clinical outcomes relative to males, though the sex-dependent response of the brain to sepsis during post-sepsis recovery remains largely uncharacterized. …”

Integrating behavioral and neurophysiological insights: High trait anxiety enhances observational fear learning by Xianchao Ming, Ganzhong Luo, Jinxia Wang, Haoran Dou, Hong Li, Yi Lei

“…Participants were subjected to observational fear learning tasks, and their behavioral responses, physiological reactions, and brain activations were recorded. Results demonstrated that HTA participants exhibited differentiated skin conductance responses to threat and safety stimuli during the observational fear acquisition phase, notwithstanding prior assurances against shock delivery. …”
