VOLATILE CONSTITUENTS OF SOME SELECTED PLANT SPECIES TRADITIONALLY USED AS TEA IN THE SHARRI MOUNTAINS (KOSOVO)

Volatile Constituents of Some Selected Plant Species Traditionally Used as Tea in the Sharri Mountains (Kosovo)

The study evaluates the chemical composition of the volatile constituents of ten plant species traditionally used as herbal tea in the Sharri Mountain regions (Kosovo and North Macedonia).Volatile constituents responsible for the flavour and fragrance of selected species (Crataegus monogyna, Cydonia oblonga, Malus sylvestris, Matricaria chamomilla,

Age-Specific Activation Patterns and Inter-Subject Similarity During Verbal Working Memory Maintenance and Cognitive Reserve

Cognitive Reserve (CR), according to a recent consensus definition of the NIH-funded Reserve and Resilience collaboratory,1 is constituted by any mechanism contributing to cognitive performance beyond, or interacting with, brain structure in the widest sense.To identity multivariate activation patterns fulfilling this postulate, we investigated a v

Tablet computer-based cognitive training for visuomotor integration in children with developmental delay: a pilot study

Abstract Background Impaired visuomotor integration (VMI) is commonly observed in children with developmental delay (DD).This pilot study aimed to evaluate the effects of tablet computer-based cognitive training on the VMI in children with DD.Methods This study included children aged 4 to under 18 years diagnosed with DD.The children participated i

Two Tests for Dependence (of Unknown Form) between Time Series

This paper proposes two new nonparametric tests for independence between time series.Both tests are based on symbolic analysis, specifically on symbolic correlation integral, in order to be robust to potential unknown nonlinearities.The first test is Camera Cleaning Kit developed for a scenario in which each considered time series is independent an

Perceptual decision-making difficulty modulates feedforward effective connectivity to the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex

Diverse cortical structures are known to coordinate activity as a network in relaying and processing of visual information to discriminate visual objects.However, how this discrimination is achieved is still largely unknown.To contribute to answering this question, we used face-house categorization tasks with three levels of noise in face and house
