Disease relevance of Decision Making

 

Psychiatry related information on Decision Making

  • However, brain activity and task performance were similar between the Moderate MJ users and the Control group, suggesting a "threshold effect". These preliminary findings indicate that very heavy users of MJ have persistent decision-making deficits and alterations in brain activity [6].
  • We also examined these patients with various other procedures designed to measure decision-making (the Gambling Task), social functioning, as well as personality changes and psychopathology; standardized neuropsychological tests were applied to assess their cognitive intelligence, executive functioning, perception and memory as well [7].
  • METHOD: Ten depressed and eight recovered psychosurgery patients, along with nine never-depressed subjects and nine who had recovered from depression with medication, completed the Iowa Gambling Task, a measure of decision making in the face of feedback [8].
  • OBJECTIVE: The study assessed the validity of the Gambling Task as a test of decision-making ability in adolescents and examined whether adolescents with behavior disorders, who are at risk for substance abuse, have deficits in decision making similar to those exhibited by adults with substance abuse [9].
  • Methylphenidate was effective in 'normalizing' the decision-making behavior of patients, such that they became less risk taking on medication, although there were no significant effects on other aspects of cognitive function, including working memory, attentional set shifting, and reversal learning [10].
 

High impact information on Decision Making

  • Signals from dynamic cellular interactions between the extracellular matrix and neighboring cells ultimately input into the cellular decision-making process [11].
  • The US Supreme Court recently accepted on appeal 2 cases from the University of Michigan regarding the constitutionality of race-conscious decision making in higher education admissions [12].
  • BRCA1 testing in families with hereditary breast-ovarian cancer. A prospective study of patient decision making and outcomes [13].
  • In general, confidence intervals are too wide to allow decision making and patient feedback about an individual's cholesterol response to a dietary intervention, even with multiple measurements [14].
  • Research institutions with a variety of counseling programs, health care professionals, HD lay organizations, and society at large can work together to develop programs that provide the support necessary for responsible, autonomous decision making [15].
 

Chemical compound and disease context of Decision Making

  • We argue that there may be good reason to require a standard of admissibility that exceeds the standards of ordinary clinical decision making, but such requirements are not faithful to the mandate of the Supreme Court. Courts with especially demanding standards are misled if they believe that they are fairly representing medical practice [16].
  • Measuring and knowing. The trouble with cholesterol and decision making [17].
  • Gating of T cell voltage-gated K(+) channels (Kv1.3) appears to be the crucial "decision-making" step, through which various physiological factors, including elevated [K(+)](o) levels, affect the T cell beta1 integrin function: opening of the channel leads to function, whereas its blockage prevents it [18].
  • These results suggest that recurrent excitation mediated by NMDA receptors provides a candidate cellular mechanism for the slow time integration of sensory stimuli and the formation of categorical choices in a decision-making neocortical network [19].
