Abstract Background The increasing prevalence of neurocognitive disorders (NCDs) in the aging population worldwide has become a significant concern due to subjectivity evaluations and lack precise diagnostic methods specific indicators. Developing personalized strategies for NCDs therefore priority. Results Multimodal electroencephalography (EEG) data matched cohort normal (NA) seniors were recorded, their faecal samples urine exosomes collected identify multi-omics signatures metabolic...
Internet gaming disorder (IGD) prompts inquiry into how feedback from prior rounds influences subsequent risk-taking behavior and potential neural mechanisms. Forty-two participants, including 15 with IGD 27 health controls (HCs), underwent a sequential task. Hierarchy Bayesian modeling was adopted to measure risky propensity, behavioral consistence, affection by emotion ratings last trial. Concurrent electroencephalogram functional near-infrared spectroscopy (EEG-fNIRS) recordings were...
Chronic pain (CP) has been found to cause significant alternations of the brain’s structure and function due changes in processing disrupted cognitive functions, including with respect prefrontal cortex (PFC). However, until now, no studies have used a wearable, low-cost neuroimaging tool capable performing functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) explore PFC thus automatically achieve clinical diagnosis CP. In this case-control study, characteristics 19 chronic patients 32 healthy...
The surface step density on the vicinal Pb(111) and vacancy Pb(100) after laser superheating melting are investigated using reflection high-energy electron diffraction. With \ensuremath{\sim}100-ps pulses, does not significantly change of steps step-edge roughness. However, melting, average terrace width string length at edge become as large those room temperature. 573 K changes from 38\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}15 to 64\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}19 \AA{} while...
Abstract Objective Accumulation of pathological tau is one the primary causes Primary Progressive Aphasia (PPA). The glymphatic system crucial for removing metabolic waste from brain, whereas underlying mechanism on interplay between impairments in clearance and PPA poorly understood. Therefore, aim this study to investigate role that dysregulated macroscopic cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) movement plays pathology PPA. Methods 56 patients 94 healthy controls (HCs) participated work. coupling...
Abstract Spinocerebellar ataxia type 3 (SCA3) involves neuroinflammation and imbalance between production clearance of proteins which affects the glymphatic system, lymphatic-like, fluid-transport system in brain. However, it is unclear whether SCA3 related to impairments function. Using multimodal imaging data, 34 patients 36 age-, sex- educational matched healthy controls (HCs) were compared using multiple measurements, including choroid plexus (CP) cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) volume,...
Accumulation of pathological tau is one the primary causes Primary Progressive Aphasia (PPA). The glymphatic system crucial for removing metabolite waste from brain whereas impairments in clearance PPA are poorly understood. Thus, this study aims to investigate role dysregulated macroscopic cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) movement PPA. Fifty-six individuals and ninety-four healthy controls were included our analysis after excluding those with excessive head motions during scan. coupling strength...
Abstract Internet gaming disorder (IGD) raises questions on how feedback from the previous round affects risk-taking behavior in subsequent round. Forty-two participants underwent a sequential task, which was measured be behavioral modeling. Concurrent electroencephalogram and functional near-infrared spectroscopy (EEG-fNIRS) recordings were performed to demonstrate when, where previous-round decision making next We discovered that IGD illustrated heightened propensity as compared HCs,...
Abstract Background Frontotemporal dementia (FTD) is a complex neurodegenerative disorder encompassing heterogeneous subtypes, including behavioral variant frontotemporal (BV-FTD), semantic (SV-FTD), and progressive non-fluent aphasia (PNFA-FTD). Unraveling the shared distinctive brain module organizations among these subtypes critical for unraveling underlying neural basis of disease. This study aims to explore organization in FTD seeking potential biomarkers insights into their...
The change in the surface vacancy density after heating of Pb(100) with {approximately}100 ps laser pulses is investigated using reflection high-energy electron diffraction. remains unchanged when superheated without melting. However, fluence high enough to cause melting, increases. This increase attributed fast diffusion atoms liquid film formed on during
Superheating of solids is rarely observed due to the presence a thin disordered surface layer formed below melting point, T m , which provides nucleation site for melting. Premelting particularly evident in open surfaces. While Pb(110) disorders at temperature as low 150 K = 600.7 K, Pb(111) remains ordered up - 0.05 K. [1]. Some surfaces that do not premelt can superheat under certain conditions [2-4], and Bi(0001), some superheating Pb(100) by ~180 ps laser pulses was time-resolved...
