Context Implementation of a stepwise return-to-play (RTP) protocol has become the standard management strategy for high school athletes to ensure safe RTP after concussion. The detailed characteristics recovery timeline throughout steps an have not been delineated among adolescent population. Objective To investigate days spent in each step population and examine effects age sex on time. Design Cross-sectional study. Setting Local schools. Patients or Other Participants Student-athletes from...
Indoor environmental comfort has previously been quantified based on the subjective assessment of thermal physical parameters, such as temperature, humidity, and airflow velocity. However, relationship these parameters to brain activity remains poorly understood. The objective this study was determine effect using electroencephalograms (EEG) participants in a living environment under different conditions. Before recording, room set standardised air temperature humidity. During each...
Abstract Understanding and improving memory are vital to enhance human life. Theta rhythm is associated with consolidation coding, but the trainability effects on long-term of theta unknown. This study investigated ability improve using a neurofeedback (NFB) technique reflecting theta/low-beta power ratio an electroencephalogram (EEG). Our consisted three stages. First, participants was measured. In second stage, in NFB group received 3 days training. third measured again. The had better...
Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) induces changes in cortical excitability for minutes to hours after the end of intervention. However, it has not been precisely determined what extent plasticity prevails spatially cortex. Recent studies have shown that rTMS "interhemispheric" functional connectivity, resting-state connectivity between stimulated region and symmetrically corresponding contralateral hemisphere. In present study, quadripulse (QPS) was applied index finger...

Olfactory modulation of vision is not well understood whereas visual olfaction has been more fully investigated. This study aimed to reveal in a simple manner whether there olfactory colour working memory using an odour that induces citrus-like smell and associated with orange colours. We assumed the would have modulatory effects on information stored memory. To clarify these are supportive or disruptive, during task we measured event-related potential component, P3, which involved...
In this paper, we report an attempt to utilize Electroencephalography (EEG) signals for judging the correctness of performed perception-assist in upper-limb power-assist exoskeleton. Although Electromyography (EMG) can be used judgments, lack change EMG and complexity motions sometimes make it difficult evaluate using signals. study, investigate whether EEG alone instead judge by Experiments are carried out with three healthy subjects results presented paper. Moreover, show potentials...
Abstract Background Indoor airflow and thermal comfort are difficult to assess through subjective evaluations because sensations can differ based on various factors, such as personal characteristics, interests, preferences, the current state of mind. Thus, should be combined with objective assessments, physiological measurements. This study evaluated measurements, including skin temperature, electroencephalography, respiration, electrocardiography, in addition evaluations. Methods Twenty...

Indoor comfort is influenced by airflow direction, but subjective evaluations can differ. This study evaluates the with assessments and physiological measurements, including skin temperature, electroencephalograms, electrocardiograms. Nineteen participants entered a test room at 20°C after staying in 32°C for acclimation. They were exposed to indirect direct conditions their faces performed four tasks under each condition: resting, counting 10 s following time alerts, mind, mental...
Context Plastination techniques have emerged as effective methods for preserving human tissue and enabling specimens to be utilized in a fashion similar anatomical models with much greater accuracy. Opportunities observe experience classroom settings should beneficial undergraduate graduate students health professions such athletic training since understanding the spatial orientation of structures is critical learning palpation skills diagnostic tests. Objective To assess perceived value...
Hearing one's own name plays an important roll in external communications and internal cognition within our minds. Though hearing well has been studied, the relationship between self-awareness is not understood. In this study, we focused on brain responses to name. order assess pattern of ERP power EEG frequency during name, used a passive oddball paradigm that included subject's (SON). The grand average showed mismatch negativity novelty p300 were elicited by SON. Time analysis revealed...
Background Olfactory information can be associated with color information. Researchers have investigated the role of descriptive ratings odors on odor-color associations. Research into these associations should also focus differences in odor types. We aimed to identify that predict corresponding formation, and features colors from taking consideration Methods assessed 13 types their participants a Japanese cultural background. The CIE L*a*b* space were subjectively evaluated prevent priming...
