The primary focus of Year 2 of the study has been subject recruitment. At the conclusion of Year 2 we have consented 53 (36 male, 17 female) potential study participants of which 38 (25 male, 13 female) were eligible for full participation. After attrition, we currently have data from 25 subjects (19 controls and 6 blast-exposed) who have participated in the auditory (ASA) and visual (VSA) selective attention/frequency-following response (FFR) tasks. Recruitment of subjects for the...

Background: Chemotherapy-induced cognitive impairment (CICI) is a spectrum of neurocognitive deficits experienced during and after chemotherapy for cancer. Astherapeutic options for cancer improves, so too does survival. With more patients living longer after cancer treatments, the number of patients with these cognitive complaints is increasing and quite significant. Hypothesis: At least 30% of patients undergoing platinum/taxane-based chemotherapy for ovarian cancer will experience CICI....

Brain problem has led to the death of many people in our society. The causes of brain problem are hard drugs, taking Indian hem, accidents and not having a good identifying machine that could scan and identify this problem fast before it could be worst. This can be overcome by development of diagnostic system for brain MRI scanning based on robust information clustering. This is done by designing a membership function that would analyze the symptoms in the brain, designing a rule that enhances...

Background: Recent studies in healthy civilian and military populations indicate a strong relationship between red blood cell (RBC) n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) levels and cognitive performance, mood, impulsivity and suicide. However, the precise brain mechanisms that underlie these behavioral impairments in n-3 PUFA deficient individuals are largely unknown. Here we seek to elucidate the underlying immunological mechanisms by which n-3 PUFA exerts its benefits on brain and behavior.

According to the WHO, hearing loss occurs in 3% of children, of which 0.03% are children with severe and profound sensorineural hearing loss. Persistent hearing impairment in children is a serious problem for the child population. Chronic sensorineural hearing loss in children is the focus of many researchers. The factors affecting the organs of hearing of a growing organism do not decrease; in modern conditions, they acquire more and more importance (l). The vast experience of complex therapy...

R&D Report 1974-10 : CEEFAX: Interference with television from data signals transmitted in the field-blanking period G.M. Le Couteur This Report presents the results of engineering broadcast tests which were carried out during the early part of 1973 to examine the suitability of certain lines in the television field-blanking interval for the transmission of CEEFAX digital data signals. It was concluded that lines 17 and 18 were preferred for this purpose.

Mobility is one of the major problems encountered by the visually impaired people in their daily life. So they need assistance for their mobility. The main aim of this project is to provide an economical smart travelling guide for the visually impaired. This device is designed in the way that it will detect the static obstacles, moving obstacles such as human and vehicles by the use of array of ultrasonic sensors and camera. Haar cascade classifier is used to detect the moving obstacles from...

The main goal of this project is to investigate the use of flupirtine to protect and/or treat the Gulf War Veterans' Illnesses (GWVI) in an animal model. Many of the Persian Gulf War (PGW) veterans have complained of illnesses, known as the GWI affecting the nervous and the musculoskeletal systems (Institute of Medicine 1995). The symptoms include chronic fatigue, muscle pain, forgetfulness, and inability to concentrate. During the war, American military personnel were exposed to a combination...

Background. A large proportion of patients with amnestic mild cognitive impairment (MCI) convert to Alzheimer's disease (AD) and hence acetylcholinesterase inhibitors (ACheI) are commonly prescribed in patients with MCI though it is not FDA approved for this condition. Therefore, predicting which MCI patients are likely to improve cognitively with ACheI treatment is important. Hypotheses. 1. The acute decrease in UPSIT (Odor identification test) scores from pre- to post- atropine nasal spray...

The goal of the current study is to demonstrate that blast-induced traumatic brain injury (TBI) and Alzheimer's disease(AD) lead to similar biochemical changes in tau that increase its toxicity and contribute to cognitive and electrophysiological impairments. Specifically we will test the hypothesis that 1) blast-induced TBI leads to the production of a toxic form of tau that contributes to cognitive and electrophysiological impairments; 2) the formation of soluble tau aggregates contributes to...

The technology is growing vastly. Everyone in humanity has some limitations. One of those limitations is visual disability. So we are here with a system that helps the visually disabled people. The framework here contains object detection with voice assistance within an app and a hardware part attached to the blinds stick for distance calculation. The app is designed to support the blind person to explore freely anywhere he wants. The working of the framework begins by surveilling the...

Traumatic brain injury (TBI) affects approximately 3.8 million people annually and costs the US more than $48 million. Furthermore, TBI has become an increasingly common feature of modern military conflicts. It has been estimated that in the Iraq and Afghanistan conflicts following the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, the rate of TBI in military populations has dramatically increased to upwards of 10-20% of those serving, with over 250,000 soldiers exposed to some form of TBI (Source;...
