Early life stress and altered social behaviors: A perspective across species by Lyonna F. Parise, C. Joseph Burnett, Scott J. Russo

“…Animal models have been integral in identifying both the short- and long-term consequences of stress exposure and suggest that whether it is disruption to parental care or social isolation, chronic exposure to early life stress increases corticosterone, changes the expression of neurotransmitters and neuromodulators, and facilitates structural alterations to the hypothalamus, hippocampus, and amygdala, influencing how these brain regions communicate with other reward-related substrates. …”

Cerebral Perfusion in Chronic Stroke: Implications for Lesion-Symptom Mapping and Functional MRI by Jessica D. Richardson, Julie M. Baker, Paul S. Morgan, Chris Rorden, L. Bonilha, Julius Fridriksson

“…Lesion-symptom mapping studies are based upon the assumption that behavioral impairments are directly related to structural brain damage. Given what is known about the relationship between perfusion deficits and impairment in acute stroke, attributing specific behavioral impairments to localized brain damage leaves much room for speculation, as impairments could also reflect abnormal neurovascular function in brain regions that appear structurally intact on traditional CT and MRI scans. …”

Exploring the role of electrode density in capturing spatiotemporal dynamics of resting-state networks with EEG by Matheus Mangini Bertuzzo, Rodrigo P Rocha, Ricardo Spyrídes Boabaid Pimentel Gonçalves, Adair Roberto Soares Dos Santos, Odival Cezar Gasparotto

“…Point process analysis was employed to identify regions of high activity over time, revealing dynamic brain salient activity patterns, or brain maps. We evaluated the impact of electrode density by comparing 64-channel and 20-channel configurations and found that both configurations yielded similar and consistent brain maps. …”
