Abstract

Decision formation in perceptual decision-making involves sensory evidence accumulation instantiated by the temporal integration of an internal decision variable towards some decision criterion or threshold, as described by sequential sampling theoretical models. The decision variable can be represented in the form of experimentally observable neural activities. Hence, elucidating the appropriate theoretical model becomes crucial to understanding the mechanisms underlying perceptual decision formation. Existing computational methods are limited to either fitting of choice behavioural data or linear model estimation from neural activity data. In this work, we made use of sparse identification of nonlinear dynamics (SINDy), a data-driven approach, to elucidate the deterministic linear and nonlinear components of often-used stochastic decision models within reaction time task paradigms. Based on the simulated decision variable activities of the models, SINDy, enhanced with approaches using multiple trials, could readily estimate the dynamical equations, choice accuracy and decision time of the models across a range of signal-to-noise ratio values. In particular, SINDy performed the best using the more memory intensive multi-trial approach while trial-averaging of parameters performed more moderately. The single-trial approach, although expectedly not performing as well, may be useful for real-time modelling. Taken together, our work offers alternative approaches for SINDy to uncover the dynamics in perceptual decision-making, and more generally, for first-passage time problems.

6. How does the evolution of the mammalian autonomic nervous system help to explain religious prosociality?

Author

Lenfesty, Hillary L. and Fikes, Thomas G.

Abstract

ABSTRACTHuman cooperation relies extensively on evolved neurobiological mechanisms of positive affect and social engagement. Nevertheless, current models of religious prosociality – aimed at explaining the role of religion in the evolution of cooperation – are grounded in the fear of supernatural punishment. We propose an expansion of research on religious prosociality to encompass the breadth of physiological adaptations supporting social engagement, and suggest Polyvagal Theory as a methodologically and theoretically useful starting point: measuring variations in heart rate, which reflect underlying autonomic physiology adapted specifically for threat and social engagement, may provide a more comprehensive understanding of the role of religion in the evolution of cooperation.

10. The use of recombinant factor VIIa in warfarin patients with traumatic brain injury

Author

DeLoughery, Emma P., Lenfesty, Barbara, and DeLoughery, Thomas G.

Abstract

Patients on warfarin who have traumatic intracranial haemorrhage have a high mortality. The procoagulant recombinant factor VIIa (rFVIIa) is widely used off-label to treat intracranial haemorrhaging in patients taking warfarin to try to improve these adverse outcomes, but its effectiveness is unknown. In this study, medical records from 2002 to 2010 were reviewed for 27 warfarin patients who received rFVIIa for their traumatic intracranial haemorrhage and were compared with a matched control group of 27 warfarin patients who did not receive rFVIIa. The two groups were matched for sex, age and Injury Severity Score. The rFVIIa patients had 33.3 mortality compared with the 37 for the control patients, but this was not a statistically significant difference. There was also no significant difference in plasma unit use between the groups. However, the rFVIIa group had a significantly higher number of subdural haemorrhages, which carry a better prognosis. The initial international normalized ratios (INRs) of the rFVIIa patients were higher, and the decrease of INR was more pronounced than in the control patients. From the data, it appears that although the INRs of rFVIIa patients did improve compared with the control group, there was no reduction in plasma use or mortality.

Abstract

OBJECTIVE: To derive a clinical decision rule for people with traumatic brain injury (TBI) that enables early identification of patients requiring specialised trauma care. METHODS: We collected data from 1999 through 2003 on a retrospective cohort of consecutive people aged 18–65 years with a serious head injury (AIS 3), transported directly from the scene of injury, and evaluated in the ED. Information on 22 demographical, physiological, radiographic, and lab variables was collected. Resource based "high therapeutic intensity" measures occurring within 72 hours of ED arrival (the outcome measure) were identified a priori and included: neurosurgical intervention, exploratory laparotomy, intensive care interventions, or death. We used classification and regression tree analysis to derive and cross validate the decision rule. RESULTS: 504 consecutive trauma patients were identified as having a serious head injury: 246 (49%) required at least one of the HTI measures. Five ED variables (GCS, respiratory rate, age, temperature, and pulse rate) identified subjects requiring at least one of the HTI measures with 94% sensitivity (95% CI 91 to 97%) and 63% specificity (95% CI 57 to 69%) in the derivation sample, and 90% sensitivity and 55% specificity using cross validation. CONCLUSIONS: This decision rule identified among a cohort of head injured patients evaluated in the ED the majority of those who urgently required specialised trauma care. The rule will require prospective validation in injured people presenting to non-tertiary care hospitals before implementation can be recommended.

12. The Incidence and Burden of Ladder, Structure, and Scaffolding Falls

Abstract

Objectives:The national morbidity and mortality associated with falls from a height is incompletely described. The authors estimated the rates of injury, hospitalization, and mortality due to these falls for subgroups of the U.S. population. Methods:Administrative databases (1995–2000) provided national samples of patients treated for injuries following a fall from a height (ICD‐9‐CM E‐codes E881.0, E881.1, or E882). Inpatient data are from the Nationwide Inpatient Sample, and emergency department data are from the National Hospital Ambulatory Medical Care Survey. Results:A total of 347,484 (95% confidence interval = 308,417 to 386,551) emergency department presentations occur annually for injuries following a fall. Hospitalized patients older than 75 years of age had a 3.3% case fatality, and 42% were discharged to a skilled nursing facility. For patients older than 55 years of age, 86% of falls were not work related. Conclusions:Ladder and structure falls by elders are a substantial emergency department problem warranting thorough clinical evaluation and injury prevention efforts.

14. TOTAL PARATHYROIDECTOMY FOR POSTTRANSPLANTATION HYPERPARATHYROIDISM

Author

MCCARRON, DAVID A., LENFESTY, BARBARA, VETTO, MARK, BARRY, JOHN, and BENNETT, WILLIAM M.

Abstract

The acute and short-term clinical course of 19 subjects who underwent total parathyroidectomy and forearm implantation for persistent hyperparathyroidism following successful kidney transplantation (mean [±SD] time after transplant 43.7±29.5 months) is described. Their mean preoperative serum calcium level of 10.8±0.5 mg decreased to a nadir of 7.9±0.9 mg, 62.5±27.7 hr after the operation. The lowest serum ionized calcium (1.80±0.2 mEq/L) was recorded 57±49 hr postoperatively. After an average of five hospital days. the patients were discharged with a mean serum total calcium concentration of 8.3±1.0 mg. Three months following the operation, the mean serum total calcium concentration was 9.5±0.6 mg. With an average follow-up of 19 months (range 3–36 months) serum total calcium was 9.6±0.6 mg, with only one subject requiring calcium supplementation. Total parathyroidectomy with forearm implantation was associated with normalization of serum-immunoreactive parathyroid hormone concentrations and maintenance of stable allograft function. Our experience suggest that this procedure is an effective modality with a predictable postoperative recovery of parathyroid function when used to treat persistent hyperparathyroidism in the long-term survivor of renal transplantation.
