Example sentences for: neocortical

How can you use “neocortical” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:

  • To directly assess the issue of a disproportionate loss of neocortical volume in Lesion subjects, we computed the ratio of neocortical to total brain volume, regressed those values against body weight, and analyzed the residuals.

  • Moreover, volumetric analysis suggests this reduction largely reflects a disproportionate decrease of neocortical tissue.

  • Focal damage to the developing brain can have widespread consequences for structures and regions that project to or receive direct or even indirect projections from the damaged area [ 1 2 3 ] . Focal neocortical malformations induced by freeze injury to the developing cortical plate exemplify this fact.

  • For example, the presence of neocortical malformations in certain strains of inbred mice are correlated with better performance on tasks of spatial reference memory [ 17 18 ] . On the other hand, induced microgyric animals show a variety of behavioral deficits that suggest disturbances to multiple brain systems [ 15 19 20 21 22 ] . Rapid auditory processing deficits have been found in males with induced microgyria using both an operant condition paradigm and a reflex modification paradigm [ 15 19 20 21 ] . In both paradigms, auditory processing deficits were found only on rapidly changing stimuli, and not when these same stimuli were delivered at slower rates.

  • In addition, changes in neuronal cell size distribution in the medial geniculate nuclei associated with the presence of neocortical malformations, have been demonstrated in both human dyslexic brains [ 13 ] and rat brains [ 14 15 16 ] .
