    Notes: Summary Monkeys were trained to perform a fixation task and a visual discrimination task. During the fixation task, one or two light bars were presented at different positions in the receptive fields of TE neurons. During the discrimination task, the animal was required to detect the positive stimulus when one or two of the paired small colored spots or two-dimensional patterns were presented. In both behavioral conditions, when the two light stimuli were presented simultaneously, almost none of the TE neurons showed an increase in responding over the single stimulus condition; the response was usually similar or less than the stronger response in the single stimulus condition. In the neurons that responded selectively to the discriminanda during the discrimination task, various interactions between the two antagonistic stimuli occurred depending on the location or the effectiveness of the two stimuli. These results may be related to gain control mechanisms in the wide receptive fields of TE neurons.

    Notes: Summary Regional cerebral blood flow (CBF), blood volume (CBV) and oxygen metabolic rate (CMRO2) were evaluated and compared among normals, patients with recent reversible ischaemic attacks (RIAs) and patients with chronic minor infarction using positron emission tomography. Average CBF together with CMRO2 significantly decreased in the infarction group in the middle cerebral artery territory of the affected hemisphere while the mean values for RIAs were intermediate between the other two groups. CBV also reduced, however it was more preserved compared to flow as seen in decreased CBF/CBV values. Significant interhemispheric difference was found in CBF/CBV ratio, but it did not clearly correlate with OEF changes. Higher OEF was noted only in the restricted brain regions of RIAs where CBF showed large hemispheric asymmetry. However, in other regions, the coupled decline of blood flow and metabolism was found which suggests tissue damage or neuronal cell loss in the brain with previous RIA symptoms.
