Hypofrontality

Here are the sources from pubmed that I thought would be most applicable to us:

'''1. Antipsychotic medication and prefrontal cortex activation: A review of neuroimaging findings ''' By: Edith J. Liemburg, Henderikus Knegtering, Hans C. Klein, Rudie Kortekaas, André Aleman

'''2. Behavioural and neurochemical abnormalities in mice lacking functional tachykinin-1 (NK1) receptors: A model of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder ''' By: Ting C. Yan, Stephen P. Hunt, S. Clare Stanford

'''3. Glutamatergic (N-Methyl-D-aspartate Receptor) Hypofrontality in Schizophrenia: Too Little Juice or a Miswired Brain? ''' By: Gerard J. Marek, Berthold Behl, Anton Y. Bespalov, Gerhard Gross, Younglim Lee, Hans Schoemaker

'''4. Illuminating the Black Box: Investigating Prefrontal Cortical Hemodynamics During Exercise With Near-Infrared Spectroscopy ''' By: Panteleimon Ekkekakis

'''5. Memory Deficits in Schizophrenia: A Selective Review of Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI) Studies ''' By: Nina V. Kraguljac, Annusha Srivastava, Adrienne C. Lahti

'''6. Modelling prefrontal cortex deficits in schizophrenia: implications for treatment ''' By: J.A. Pratt, C. Winchester, A. Egerton, S.M. Cochran, B.J. Morris

'''7. Neuroimaging of cognitive disability in schizophrenia: Search for a pathophysiological mechanism ''' By: J. D. RAGLAND, J. YOON, M. J. MINZENBERG, C. S. CARTER

'''8. The reticular-activating hypofrontality (RAH) model of acute exercise ''' By: Arne Dietrich, Michel Audiffren

Also, we need to remember to actually post our work on the sandbox page, not the talk page for the sandbox!

I think that we should use the table of contents for the symptoms or signs section of the medical wikipedia information page. Semaj311 (talk) 23:04, 12 February 2015 (UTC)

Now we just need to work on the lead section, I think. It is very well described in the course assignments. I will work on it more Sunday afternoon. Semaj311 (talk) 23:15, 12 February 2015 (UTC)

We need to remember to add info about the mechanism, diagnosis, and treatments for hypofrontality in our lead section once we find more information about it. Semaj311 (talk) 02:18, 16 February 2015 (UTC)

Feedback
Nice job improving the hypofrontality article. It looks good, but there are a couple things that need fixing


 * The article could use more wikilinks. I added a few more. Wikilinks are valuable to readers, since they allow them to learn more about the topics discussed in an article. For example, most people won't know what some term means, they can click through and find out more. A lot of the people who read this article aren't going to know much about the topic. Adding links like these help integrate your article into the rest of Wikipedia, making it more useful to readers.


 * There are a few statements that are not supported by inline citations, especially in the Associated medical conditions section (and its subsections). It is important that every statement is supported by a citation.


 * Most of the sources you use are rather old. Except for sources of historical information, you should stick to recent articles, preferably ones that are less than five years old. Anything older runs the risk of being out of date, as new discoveries are made. This is a subject that is being actively studied - articles from before 2005 are likely to be out of date, far less ones from the 1990s.

As I said, it looks really good, but it needs a few more improvements. Ian (Wiki Ed) (talk) 19:18, 27 March 2015 (UTC)

Hey Ian,

Thank you for your feedback! We have added more wikilinks and inline citations. Also, the older sources are used for general information and descriptions that have not changed.

Thank you once again! Semaj311 (talk) 01:21, 30 March 2015 (UTC)
