Stroke seriously threatens human health because of its characteristics of high morbidity,
disability, recurrence, and mortality, thus representing a heavy financial and mental burden …

The left and right sides of the brain are specialised to process information in different ways
and to control different categories of behaviour. Research on a range of species has shown …

There is considerable debate about whether population-level asymmetries in limb
preferences are uniquely human or are a common feature among vertebrates. In the present …

Hand preferences of primates are discussed as part of the broad perspective of brain
lateralization in animals, and compared with paw preferences in non-primates. Previously, it …

To explore the morphological aspects of the functional reorganization of the blind's visual
cortex, we analyzed the regional cortical thickness and cortical surface area in the …

Genetic and environmental factors control morphological and functional differences between
the two sides of the nervous system. Neural asymmetries are proposed to have important …

Rodents and primates both show considerable variation in the overall size, the radial and
tangential dimensions, folding and subdivisions into distinct areas of their cerebral cortex …

Ischemic stroke is a syndrome of severe neurological responses that cause neuronal death,
damage to the neurovascular unit and inflammation. Notoginsenoside R1 (NG-R1) is a …

Mice and rats are among the most common animal model species in both basic and clinical
neuroscience. Despite their ubiquity as model species, many clinically relevant brain …

The authors investigated the relationship between degree of lateralization and noise phobia
in 48 domestic dogs (Canis familiaris) by scoring paw preference to hold a food object and …
