    • Exogenous orientingofvisual-spatialattention in ADHDchildren 
      Ortega, Rodrigo; López, Vladimir; Carrasco Álvarez, Ximena; Anllo Vento, Lourdes; Aboitiz Domínguez, Francisco Javier (ElsevierB.V., 2013)
      Visual spatial orienting of attention towards exogenous cues has been one of the attentional functions considered to be spared in ADHD. Here we present a design in which 60 (30 ADHD) children, age: 10.9±1.4, were asked to ...
    • Genotypic interaction between DRD4 and DAT1 loci is a high risk factor for attention-deficit/hyperactivity ... 
      Carrasco Álvarez, Ximena; Rothhammer Achondo, Paula; Moraga Vergara, Mauricio; Henríquez B., Hugo; Chakraborty, Ranajit; Aboitiz Domínguez, Francisco Javier; Rothhammer Engel, Francisco (WILEY-LISS, 2006-01-05)
      Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder, ADHD [MIM 126452], is a common, highly heritable neurobiological disorder of childhood onset, characterized by hyperactivity, impulsiveness, and/or inattentiveness. As part of an ...
    • Non-homogeneous spatial configuration of vibrissae cortical representation in layer IV of the barrel ... 
      Guic, Eliana; Carrasco Álvarez, Ximena; Rodríguez Silva, Eugenio; Robles, Ignacio; Merzenich, Michael M. (SOC BIOLGIA CHILE, 2008)
      In the present experiments we studied exclusive and overlapping cortical representational areas of the vibrissae in layer IV cells, across the entire barrel subfield of the rat somatosensory cortex, looking for evidences ...
    • Plasticity in primary somatosensory cortex resulting from environmentally enriched stimulation and sensory ... 
      Guic, Eliana; Carrasco Álvarez, Ximena; Rodríguez Silva, Eugenio; Robles, Ignacio; Merzenich, Michael M. (SOC BIOLGIA CHILE, 2008)
      We studied primary-somatosensory cortical plasticity due to selective stimulation of the sensory periphery by two procedures of active exploration in adult rats. Subjects, left with only three adjacent whiskers, were trained ...
    • Temporal Constraints of Behavioral Inhibition: Relevance of Inter-stimulus Interval in a Go-Nogo Task 
      Zamorano, Francisco; Billeke, Pablo; Hurtado, José M.; López, Vladimir; Carrasco Álvarez, Ximena; Ossandón, Tomás; Aboitiz, Francisco (2014)
      The capacity to inhibit prepotent and automatic responses is crucial for proper cognitive and social development, and inhibitory impairments have been considered to be key for some neuropsychiatric conditions. One of the ...

      Nogales Gaete, Jorge; Donoso S., Archibaldo; Verdugo L., Renato; Sáez Méndez, David; Valenzuela Torres, Daniel; Carrasco Álvarez, Ximena; Cea Muñoz, Gabriel (Universitaria, 2005)
    • Williams syndrome: Pediatric, neurologic, and cognitive development 
      Carrasco Álvarez, Ximena; Castillo, Silvia; Aravena Cerda, Teresa; Rothhammer Achondo, Paula; Aboitiz Domínguez, Francisco Javier (ELSEVIER SCIENCE INC, 2005-03)
      This study examines the developmental history of 32 Williams syndrome patients, positive to the fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) test. The information is intended to provide help for early diagnosis and appropriate ...
