Conway J, Moretti L, Nolan-Kenney R, Akhand O, Serrano L, Kurzweil A, et al.
eNeurologicalSci . 2021 Feb; 22:100323. PMID: 33604461
Objective: The Mobile Universal Lexicon Evaluation System (MULES) is a rapid picture naming task that captures extensive brain networks involving neurocognitive, afferent/efferent visual, and language pathways. Many of the factors...

Fallon S, Akhand O, Hernandez C, Galetta M, Hasanaj L, Martone J, et al.
J Neurol Sci . 2019 May; 402:52-56. PMID: 31103959
Objective: The Mobile Universal Lexicon Evaluation System (MULES) is a test of rapid picture naming under investigation. Measures of rapid automatic naming (RAN) have been used for over 50 years...

Nolan-Kenney R, Liu M, Akhand O, Calabresi P, Paul F, Petzold A, et al.
Ann Neurol . 2019 Mar; 85(5):618-629. PMID: 30851125
Objective: To determine the optimal thresholds for intereye differences in retinal nerve fiber and ganglion cell + inner plexiform layer thicknesses for identifying unilateral optic nerve lesions in multiple sclerosis....
4.
Akhand O, Balcer L, Galetta S
Curr Opin Neurol . 2018 Dec; 32(1):68-74. PMID: 30516648
Purpose Of Review: To review emerging vision-based assessments in the evaluation of concussion. Recent Findings: Involvement of the visual pathways is common following concussion, the mildest form of traumatic brain...

Akhand O, Rizzo J, Rucker J, Hasanaj L, Galetta S, Balcer L
J Neuroophthalmol . 2018 Oct; 39(1):68-81. PMID: 30358639
Background: Concussion leads to neurophysiologic changes that may result in visual symptoms and changes in ocular motor function. Vision-based testing is used increasingly to improve detection and assess head injury....

Seay M, Akhand O, Galetta M, Cobbs L, Hasanaj L, Amorapanth P, et al.
J Neurol Sci . 2018 Sep; 394:1-5. PMID: 30193154
Objective: The Mobile Universal Lexicon Evaluation System (MULES) is a test of rapid picture naming that is under investigation for concussion. MULES captures an extensive visual network, including pathways for...

Nolan R, Akhand O, Rizzo J, Galetta S, Balcer L
J Neuroophthalmol . 2018 May; 38(2):202-209. PMID: 29750734
Methods: A Pubmed search using the specific key words "optical coherence tomography," "low-contrast letter acuity," "multiple sclerosis," and "clinical trials" was performed. An additional search on the clinicaltrials.gov website with...

Akhand O, Galetta M, Cobbs L, Hasanaj L, Webb N, Drattell J, et al.
J Neurol Sci . 2018 Mar; 387:199-204. PMID: 29571863
Objective: Measures of rapid automatized naming (RAN) have been used for over 50 years to capture vision-based aspects of cognition. The Mobile Universal Lexicon Evaluation System (MULES) is a test...

Madarasz T, Diaz-Mataix L, Akhand O, Ycu E, LeDoux J, Johansen J
Nat Neurosci . 2016 May; 19(7):965-72. PMID: 27214568
Recognizing predictive relationships is critical for survival, but an understanding of the underlying neural mechanisms remains elusive. In particular, it is unclear how the brain distinguishes predictive relationships from spurious...
