Example sentences for: neocortical
How can you use “neocortical” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
Moreover, volumetric analysis suggests this reduction largely reflects a disproportionate decrease of neocortical tissue.
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.
Since reductions in brain weight and total brain volume in Microgyric (Lesion) subjects reflect disproportionate loss of neocortical tissue, it is important to address the unlikely possibility that this effect reflects direct tissue loss from lesion induction.
Analysis of histologic brain and neocortical volume confirmed the effects of lesion on brain weight, and suggest that the reduction in volume associated with microgyria is proportionally greater in the cerebral cortex.
An ANOVA was performed for non-neocortical volume (computed by total brain volume minus neocortical volume), to assess whether Lesion effects and Environmental effects were specific to cortex, or distributed through non-neocortical areas as well.
