Background: Cognitive disorder is caused by hyperglycemia and insulin resistance in type 2 diabetes. Elevated glycemic levels contribute to neural damage and exacerbate cognitive decline, strict glucose control is requir...

The Mental condition of humans affects sports and intellectual works. In particular, better results can be obtained when high concentration condition is achieved. One of the approaches of concentration improvement is Bio...

O desmatamento na Amazônia procede a um alto ritmo por várias razões, muitas das quais dependem de decisões do governo. O desmatamento leva à perda de serviços ambientais, que têm um valor maior que os usos pouco ...

Abstract Background In the neurorehabilitation framework of treadmill-based robot-assisted gait training (t-RAGT), a threefold relationship among physiotherapist (Pht), patient (Pt), and the selected robotic device shoul...

Abstract Background This pilot randomized controlled trial evaluated the effectiveness of an artificial intelligence (AI)–assisted solo workflow for intraoral photography training. The study examined whether real‑tim...

This brief addressed the control design problem for a bilinear dynamical system with two approaches. The first approach is proportional-integral passivity-based control theory (PI-PBC), and the second control approach is...

Este artículo presenta el diseño de un algoritmo basado en redes neuronales en tiempo discreto para su aplicación en robótica móvil. También se muestran las condiciones de estabilidad y una evaluación de los resul...

Hand dexterity assessments play a crucial role in informing the rehabilitative care of individuals with upper-limb hemiparesis. However, current assessments often struggle to evaluate the hand’s ability to precise...

"One of the main challenges in automatic glycemic regulation in patients with type 1 diabetes (T1D) is to dispense with carbohydrate counting. In this context, we propose to equip a previously introduced switched Linear ...

Introduction We developed an innovative, active learning workshop to introduce foundations of point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS) physics and instrumentation. The workshop design aimed to reduce cognitive load and encourage...

The diverse behavioral patterns of consumers for purchasing products motivate the necessity for implementing tailored marketing strategies to foster sustainable business development. This research work proposes a hybrid ...

ObjectivesParents often lack knowledge regarding healthy sleep practices, and little is known about whether a brief behavioral intervention emphasizing mastery, personalization, motivation, and modeling can increase pare...

Abstract Background Circadian rhythms are endogenous, transcription-translation feedback loops that align cellular activities with the 24-h light–dark cycle. Stem-cell populations across tissues exhibit circadian oscil...

Objectives Promoting regular physical activity (PA) is essential in cardiac rehabilitation; yet many patients exhibit low levels of PA. In January 2022, the Improving Physical Activity (IMPACT) trial, a randomised contro...

We develop an analytical framework to predict the one-point probability distribution function (PDF) of dispersion measures (DMs) for fast radio bursts (FRBs) within the baryonification (BFC) model. BFC provides a computa...

Digital nudges offer a promising approach to promote healthier food choices in online meal ordering, but their effects over repeated exposures and across multiple decisions are undertested. We explored how two nudges, Ju...

Bologna is the first major Italian city to become a ‘30 km/h City’, following the example of many other European cities. Since its launch in 2022, the ‘Bologna Città 30’ Plan has marked the beginning of a techni...

Abstract Breaking bad news is common in obstetrics and gynecology (ob-gyn). However, it is difficult, and few doctors receive training on how to deal with this situation. This narrative review aims to gather, analyze, an...

Hyperactivity of the hypothalamic pituitary adrenal (HPA) axis in patients with major depression is one of the most consistent findings in biological psychiatry. Experimental data support the idea that glucocorticoid-med...

ObjectiveEpidemiological studies show an increased risk for premature maternal cardiovascular disease in women after pregnancy complications, like preeclampsia, gestational hypertension and gestational diabetes mellitus....

IntroductionRhythm-game learning naturally couples auditory and visual information, but always-available sensory cues may act as guidance and limit performance when those cues are withdrawn. We tested whether congruent s...

This study investigates whether a culturally immersive pedagogy can measurably enhance advanced Arabic speaking proficiency among non-native learners within the CEFR framework. Using a quasi-experimental design at King S...

The increasing complexity of pharmaceutical management in pharmacies demands efficient systems to streamline drug classification and inventory control. As pharmacies handle a diverse range of formulations, including tabl...

Quantumized Hall resistance (QHR) provides a traceable absolute reference for resistance measurement. However, the traditional transfer system based on super-conducting current comparator (CCC) relies on cryogenic liquid...
