    Abstract : Alcohol use disorder (AUD) is a complex disorder with multiple pathophysiological processes contributing to the initiation, progression and development of the disease state. AUD is a chronic relapsing disease with escalation of alcohol-intake over time in repeated cycles of tolerance, abstinence and relapse and hence, it is very difficult to treat. READ MORE

  5. 3. Developing brain and systemic inflammation: a "Toll-like" link with consequences

    Author : Amin Mottahedin; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; developing brain; neonatal brain injury; hypoxia-ischemia; inflammation; infection; Toll-like receptor; choroid plexus; neuroimmunology; Mitochondria;

    Abstract : The developing brain is vulnerable to external insults, and perinatal brain injury (PBI) is a major cause of life-long neurological syndromes such as cerebral palsy. Currently, no pharmaceutical intervention is available. Hypoxia/ischemia (HI), infections and inflammation are implicated in the pathogenesis of PBI. READ MORE

  6. 4. Speech masking speech in everyday communication : The role of inhibitory control and working memory capacity

    Abstract : Age affects hearing and cognitive abilities. Older people, with and without hearing impairment (HI), exhibit difficulties in hearing speech in noise. READ MORE

  7. 5. Neural and Cognitive Effects of Hearing Loss on Speech Processing

    Author : Eline Borch Petersen; Thomas Lunner; Stefan Stenfelt; Jonas Obleser; Edmund Lalor; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Hearing loss; speech processing; electroencephalogram EEG; working memory; cognitive load; hearing aid; Hörselnedsättning; bearbetning av tal; elektroencefalogram EEG; arbetsminne; kognitiv belastning; hörapparat;

    Abstract : Understanding speech in the presence of noise can be difficult, especially when suffering from a hearing loss. This thesis examined behavioural and electrophysiological measures of speech processing with the aim of establishing how they were influenced by hearing loss (internal degradation) and listening condition (external degradation).
