Low level methylmercury exposure affects neuropsychological function in adults
Edna M Yokoo,Joaquim Gonçalves Valente,Lynn M. Grattan,Sergio L. Schmidt,Illeane Platt,Ellen K. Silbergeld +5 more
TL;DR: This study suggests that adults exposed to MeHg may be at risk for deficits in neurocognitive function, similar to some of those previously reported in children with prenatal exposures.
The effects of hand preference and gender on finger tapping performance asymmetry by the use of an infra-red light measurement device.
TL;DR: The analyses based on asymmetry scores indicated a significant handedness effect: right-handers showed greater manual asymmetries than left- handers for both tapping rate and intertap variability, and right handers exhibited a significant greater asymmetry for interTap variability than tapping rate.

Analysis of Attention Subdomains in Obstructive Sleep Apnea Patients.
TL;DR: The CVAT was able to detect the primary (alertness—RT parameter) and the secondary deficits (sustained attention—VRT parameter) associated with OSA and can be used to assess the cognitive recovery in OSA patients during treatment.
Sex differences in sensitivity to seizures elicited by pentylenetetrazol in mice.
TL;DR: Sex differences in sensitivity to seizures elicited by intraperitoneally injected pentylenetetrazol (PTZ) were studied to investigate the role played by sexual hormones in regulating the sensitivity of the gamma-aminobutiric acid (GABA(A)) receptor complex (GRC).

Association Between Auditory and Visual Continuous Performance Tests in Students With ADHD
Sergio L. Schmidt,Sergio L. Schmidt,Sergio L. Schmidt,Eunice N. Simoes,Ana Lúcia Novais Carvalho +4 more
TL;DR: Inattention is partially independent of modality, and response inhibition is modality-specific, whereas impulsivity would be dependent on sensory modality and inattention would be a unitary cross-modal construct.
