Evidence for a dysfunction of left posterior reading areas in German dyslexic readers.

Abstract:

:The brain activity during a sentence reading task and a visual control task was examined with fMRI in 13 German dyslexic readers and 15 age-matched fluent readers (age: 14-16 years). These participants came from a longitudinal study and the dyslexic readers exhibited a persistent reading fluency deficit from early on. For the first time with German dyslexic readers, and in correspondence with the majority of functional imaging studies, we found reduced dyslexic activation in the left occipitotemporal cortex and in a small region of the left supramarginal gyrus. Enhanced activation was found in left inferior frontal and subcortical regions.

  • Increased prepulse inhibition of the acoustic startle response is associated with better strategy formation and execution times in healthy males.

    abstract::Prepulse inhibition (PPI) refers to the attenuation of the amplitude of the startle reflex in response to sudden intense stimuli (pulse) if preceded by a weaker sensory stimulus (prepulse). PPI reflects the ability to filter out irrelevant information in the early stages of processing so that attention can be directed...
