Men and women seem to process emotions react them differently. Yet, few neurophysiological studies have systematically investigated gender differences in emotional processing. Here, we studied using Event Related Potentials (ERPs) Skin Conductance Responses (SCR) recorded from participants who passively viewed pictures selected the International Affective Picture System (IAPS). The arousal valence dimension of stimuli were manipulated orthogonally. peak amplitude latency ERP components SCR...
Understanding of the neuroscientific sleep mechanisms is associated with mental/cognitive and physical well-being pathological conditions. A prerequisite for further analysis identification macroarchitecture through manual staging. Several computer-based approaches have been proposed to extract time and/or frequency-domain features accuracy ranging from 80% 95% compared golden standard However, their acceptability by medical community still suboptimal. Recently, utilizing deep learning...
Driver sleepiness due to sleep deprivation is a causative factor in 1% 3% of all motor vehicle crashes. In recent studies, the importance developing driver fatigue countermeasure devices has been stressed, order help prevent driving accidents and errors. Although numerous physiological indicators are available describe an individual's level alertness, EEG signal shown be one most predictive reliable, since it direct measure brain activity. present study, multichannel data that were collected...
Sleep staging, the process of assigning labels to epochs sleep, depending on stage sleep they belong, is an arduous, time consuming and error prone as initial recordings are quite often polluted by noise from different sources. To properly analyze such data extract clinical knowledge, components must be removed or alleviated. In this paper a pre-processing subsequent staging pipeline for analysis electroencephalographic signals described. Two novel methods functional connectivity estimation...

High cholesterol is one of the risk factors for atherogenesis, leading to oxidative stress and cardiovascular disease (CVD). The focus this study was evaluate role pathways action a natural antioxidant, resveratrol, in asymptomatic hypercholesterolemic (AHC) individuals. Forty healthy AHCs normocholesterolemics (NCs) participated study. They received random-order resveratrol placebo capsules four weeks. Total antioxidant capacity (TAC), vitamin E total (TC) were measured at baseline end each...
Increasing the level of gravity passively on a centrifuge, should be equal to or even more beneficial not only astronauts living in microgravity environment but also patients confined bed. Gravity therapy (GT) may have effects numerous conditions, such as immobility due neuromuscular disorders, balance stroke, sports injuries. However, appropriate configuration for administering Gz load remains determined.To address these issues, we studied graded G-loads from 0.5 2.0g 24 young healthy, male...
This paper focuses on developing a novel approach to automatic sleep stage classification based electroencephalographic (EEG) data. The proposed methodology employs contemporary mathematical tools such as the synchronization likelihood and graph theory metrics applied EEG derived features are then fitted into three different machine learning techniques, namely k-nearest neighbors, support vector machines neural networks. evaluation of their comparative performance is investigated according...
Driver sleepiness due to sleep deprivation is a causative factor of many road accidents. Reducing the extent sleepy driving problem by developing countermeasure device that will monitor level driver crucial improve safety roads. Among numerous physiological measurements, electroencephalographic (EEG) signal seems be most sensitive detect sleepiness. Previous studies in field have found consistent alterations EEG during driving, though they face methodological limitations. We present here...
Introduction: Investigations of biofeedback (BF) and neurofeedback (NF) training for nicotine addiction have been long documented to lead positive gains in smoking status, behavior changes brain activity. We aimed to: (a) evaluate a multi-visit combined BF/NF intervention as an alternative cessation approach, (b) validate training-induced feedback learning, (c) document effects on resting-state functional connectivity networks (rsFCN); considering gender degree dependence longitudinal...
Short-arm human centrifugation (SAHC) is proposed as a robust countermeasure to treat deconditioning and prevent progressive disability in case of secondary multiple sclerosis. Based on long-term physiological knowledge derived from space medicine missions, artificial gravity training seems be promising physical rehabilitation approach toward the prevention musculoskeletal decrement due confinement inactivity. So, present study proposes novel infrastructure based SAHC investigate hypothesis...
Introduction: The idea behind the presentation of this case relates to utilizing space technology in earth applications with mutual benefit for both patients confined bed and astronauts. Deconditioning progressiveness skeletal muscle loss absence adequate gravity stimulus have been physiological concern. A robust countermeasure disuse is still a challenge immobilized astronauts long duration missions. Researchers medicine field concluded that artificial (AG) produced by short-radius...
