Stronger saccadic suppression of displacement and blanking effect in children.
(2020-10-01)
Humans do not notice small displacements to objects that occur during saccades, termed saccadic suppression of displacement (SSD), and this effect is reduced when a blank is introduced between the pre- and postsaccadic ...
The profile of attention differs between locations orthogonal to and in line with reach direction.
(2017-11)
People make movements in a variety of directions when interacting with the world around them. It has been well documented that attention shifts to the goal of an upcoming movement, whether the movement is a saccade or a ...
Risk of fractures in half a million survivors of 20 cancers: a population-based matched cohort study using linked English electronic health records.
(2024-03)
BACKGROUND: A history of multiple myeloma, prostate cancer, and breast cancer has been associated with adverse bone health, but associations across a broader range of cancers are unclear. We aimed to compare the risk of ...
Optimal trans-saccadic integration relies on visual working memory.
(2018-12)
Saccadic eye movements alter the visual processing of objects of interest by bringing them from the periphery, where there is only low-resolution vision, to the high-resolution fovea. Evidence suggests that people are able ...
Attention modulates trans-saccadic integration.
(2018-01)
With every saccade, humans must reconcile the low resolution peripheral information available before a saccade, with the high resolution foveal information acquired after the saccade. While research has shown that we are ...
Transsaccadic integration benefits are not limited to the saccade target.
(2019-10-01)
Across saccades, humans can integrate the low-resolution presaccadic information of an upcoming saccade target with the high-resolution postsaccadic information. There is converging evidence to suggest that transsaccadic ...
The spatiotemporal characteristics of the attentional shift relative to a reach.
(2015)
While the attentional shift preceding a saccadic eye movement has been well documented, the mechanisms surrounding the attentional shift preceding a reach are not well understood. It is unknown whether these mechanisms may ...
Variation in surgical demand and time to hip fracture repair: a Canadian database study.
(BMC, 2020-10-10)
BACKGROUND: Competing demands for operative resources may affect time to hip fracture surgery. We sought to determine the time to hip fracture surgery by variation in demand in Canadian hospitals. METHODS: We obtained ...
Is obesity more likely among children sharing a household with an older child with obesity? Cross-sectional study of linked National Child Measurement Programme data and electronic health records.
(2024-04-10)
BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES: We identified household members from electronic health records linked to National Child Measurement Programme (NCMP) data to estimate the likelihood of obesity among children living with an older ...
Digenic inheritance involving a muscle-specific protein kinase and the giant titin protein causes a skeletal muscle myopathy.
(Springer Nature, 2024-03-01)
In digenic inheritance, pathogenic variants in two genes must be inherited together to cause disease. Only very few examples of digenic inheritance have been described in the neuromuscular disease field. Here we show that ...
