DOI: 10.1002/aur.2683
Abstract: Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is associated with atypical visual processing and deficits in working memory (WM). Visual WM performance typically improves between childhood and adulthood, but such improvement may be atypical in ASD. To better… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/brb3.2703
Abstract: Working memory capacity (WMC) is the ability to maintain information over a few seconds. Although it has been extensively studied in healthy subjects and neuropsychiatric patients, few tasks have been developed to measure such changes… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/brb3.2857
Abstract: Although there is research examining the demographic predictors of self‐estimated intelligence (SEI) in young adults, so far SEI in old age is little investigated. This study aims to examine the influence of additional variables such… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/brb3.957
Abstract: Postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD) is consistently associated with increased morbidity and mortality, which has become a major concern of patients and caregivers. Although POCD occurs mainly in aged patients, it happens at any age. Previous… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/da.22518
Abstract: Anxiety patients exhibit deficits in cognitive tasks that require prefrontal control of attention, including those that tap working memory (WM). However, it is unclear whether these deficits reflect threat‐related processes or symptoms of the disorder.… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/dev.21986
Abstract: Early life stress (ELS) is defined as a short or chronic period of trauma, environmental or social deprivation, which can affect different neurochemical and behavioral patterns during adulthood. Zebrafish (Danio rerio) have been widely used… read more here.

Blockade of dopamine D2 receptors disrupts intrahippocampal connectivity and enhances pain‐related working memory deficits in neuropathic pain rats
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2018 at "European Journal of Pain"
DOI: 10.1002/ejp.1186
Abstract: Dopamine (DA) is thought to be important to local hippocampal networks integrity during spatial working memory (sWM) processing. Chronic pain may contribute to deficient dopaminergic signalling, which may in turn affect cognition. However, the neural… read more here.
