Can a Neandertal meditate? An evolutionary view of attention as a core component of general intelligence - ScienceDirect https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0160289622000496 Interesting speculations, particularly (IMHO) the role of attention in intelligence, which is related to contemporary research that has suggested that attentional control (Gwm-AC) may be one of the most central causal mechanisms of intelligence.Attention might be considered a key component of intelligence, and its cognitive and neurobiological mechanisms probably underwent profound changes in the course of human...

Constraints Due to the Interconnected Nature of Cellular Biochemistry in the Evolution of Aging
Why is degenerative aging near universal in the animal kingdom? The present consensus explanation is that natural selection acts most strongly on early reproductive life, selecting for mechanisms that are beneficial at the outset of life, heedless of later life harms when those mechanisms run awry over time. Yet why is it the case that so many of the mechanisms beneficial in young animals are also harmful in older animals? Why is this inevitable? Here it is argued that this is an outcome of the highly interconnected nature of cellular biochemistry. Every protein has many functions and influences the function of many other ...

A surgeon ’s favorite stomach surgery patient
High on my list of favorite operations was surgery on the stomach: The anatomy is neat, the re-plumbing alternatives clever, technical challenges rewarding, and, because it ’s well-supplied with blood, complication-free healing is pretty predictable. Also, several procedures were invented by and named for history’s pioneer surgeons, and it’s nice to feel the connection, heir toRead more …A surgeon’s favorite stomach surgery patient originally appeared inKevinMD.com.

What is this ST Elevation?
This patient was sent to the ED because of a potassium of 6.1 mEq/L and some acute renal insufficiency.He had an ECG recorded:This was brought to me for analysis. The computer read " Septal Myocardial Infarction "What do you think?There is saddleback ST Elevation and Q-waves in leads V1 and V2. Whenever I see a saddleback, or Q-waves in V1, V2, I look to see if the leads were placed too high. How would I know? By looking at the P-wave in lead V2, which should always be upright. Furthermore, the P-wave in lead V1 should almost always be biphasic up-down. In this ECG, the P-wave i...

Hidden wonders of human anatomy [PODCAST]
“It turns out that living beings are less like bags of sloshing water, as I imagined in grade school, and more like a stew. While water makes up most of it, water alone is thin and empty of the organic molecules from which organisms are built —the stew thickeners. Water alone is lifeless. Instead, it isRead more …Hidden wonders of human anatomy [PODCAST] originally appeared inKevinMD.com. (Source: Kevin, M.D. - Medical Weblog)

Tiny Wireless Neurostimulator Delivered Through Blood Vessels
Researchers at Rice University developed a tiny neurostimulation device that can be delivered intravascularly and which does not require a battery or wired connection. At approximately the size of a grain of rice, the device can be advanced through the vasculature until it lies near a target nerve, and a clinician can then attach it to the the vessel wall for long-term implantation. The stimulator is battery-free and is powered through an external magnetic transmitter. The researchers hope that the technology could lead to a replacement for bulkier neurostimulation devices that require on-board batteries or wires that pene...
