Background Walking impairments post-stroke are common but studying their neural basis with fMRI is difficult due to motion constraints. This study used post-task resting-state residual activity (PTRRA) to investigate wal...

Abstract This study aims to adapt, analyze the internal structure, and evaluate construct validity regarding the Brazilian version of the Adolescents´ Self-efficacy to Overcome Barriers to Physical Activity Scale (SOBPA...

We show that the stacks of two-dimensional semiconductor crystals with the chiral packing exhibit optical activity and circular dichroism. We develop a microscopic theory of these phenomena in the spectral range of excit...

Abstract Background While Canadian First Nations communities actively participate in sport, cultural, and land-based activities, they face various barriers to physical activity. Despite calls for increased support at all...

This paper presents a case study to illustrate how activity theory (Leontiev 1978; Engeström 1987, 1999) and the expansive learning framework (Engeström 1987, 1999) were used to evaluate the development of teacher auto...

Abstract Heart rate variability (HRV), regulated by the autonomic nervous system, is typically assessed using standard time-domain and frequency-domain methods to evaluate autonomic function. However, conventional linear...

Aurora phenomenon is the most visible manifestation of space weather and play a crucial role in geoscientific studies of near-Earth space processes. Segmenting auroral image sequences from large vast observational data i...

This study analyzed modern approaches to motivating young athletes based on Deci and Ryan’s self-determination theory, Dweck’s growth mindset theory, and Wallerand’s concepts of motivational profiling. Particular a...

Abstract Exercise is clinically recommended for patients undergoing hemodialysis (HD); however, their physical activity levels remain low. Guided by the theory of planned behavior, this study developed the Exercise Behav...

Abstract In this study, graphitic carbon nitride, often known as g-C₃N₄, has also been shown to be a highly attractive photocatalyst that works well with visible light. However, its performance has been adversely aff...

Abstract Background A high prevalence of child overweight and obesity worldwide calls for innovative multi-setting intervention approaches, and thorough evaluation. This paper describes the protocol for the process evalu...

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder characterized by cholinergic dysfunction, making acetylcholinesterase (AChE) a key therapeutic target. Although Garcinia kola has been widely reported ...

Relationship between Age Cognitive Decline and Performance of Cognitive Motor Tasks in Seniors Relationship between the age-related cognitive decline and decline in cognitive processing speed, in a variety of cognitive...

IntroductionLiver diseases continue to impose a major global health burden, and therapeutic progress is constrained by the limited availability of validated small-molecule modulators. TEAD4, a central Hippo-YAP effector,...

Based on the calculations from the first principles, we obtained the distributions of valence electron densities and electron energy spectra for a CdS film with different oxygen concentrations. According to the results o...

To determine whether providing a choice between high-intensity interval training (HIIT) and moderate-intensity continuous training (MICT) within a 4-week diabetes prevention program may lead to greater perceived autonomy...

Despite the link between conflict and human trafficking having been globally recognised, academic inquiry investigating how the two interact continues to be limited. Given the recency of the full-scale invasion of Ukrain...

Após a Guerra Fria, a Organização do Tratado do Atlântico Norte (OTAN) utilizou seus recursos militares pela primeira vez em um conflito. Desde então, ela vem atuando com regularidade, sob mandato da ONU ou não. Es...

ABSTRACT Pyroelectric catalysis has shown promising prospects for sustainable energy generation and medical treatments. However, its potential is limited by intrinsically low pyroelectric coefficients and insufficient in...

Quando o artigo Uma proposta de interpretação da teoria quântica em termos de variáveis" escondidas", de autoria de David Bohm, foi publicado, ele estava no Brasil, na Universidade de São Paulo. Atingido pelo McCart...

ABSTRACT Deep brain stimulation (DBS) for treatment‐resistant depression (TRD) is challenged by significant individual variability in efficacy and unclear neural circuit mechanisms. To address this, a cross‐species, ...

Abstract The photocatalytic efficiency of pristine titanium dioxide nanoparticles (TiO2 NPs) remains suboptimal due to its poor visible light absorption and rapid charge carrier recombination, necessitating fine structu...

In the power plants operation, the combustion process will produce particulate emissions. Particulate emissions themselves are known have a negative impact on health, such as causing respiratory problems. The pattern of ...

A contemporary theory holds that mathematical concepts are stored in the long-term memory of mathematicians. This perspective also proposes that the brain has evolved to possess basic “representations” of space, time...
