Rehabilitative devices for a top-down approach [PDF]
, 2019 In recent years, neurorehabilitation has moved from a "bottom-up" to a "top down" approach. This change has also involved the technological devices developed for motor and cognitive rehabilitation.

Respiratory and Electrocortical Responses to Acoustic Stimulation [PDF]
Sleep, 1996 Although sleep-related obstructive apnea is most often associated with transient arousal, the impact of this arousal on respiratory control remains unclear. We employed binaural tone bursts (.5 second duration) to elicit repetitive transient arousals from sleep during polygraphic recordings in 5 adult volunteers.

Developmental sensory experience balances cortical excitation and inhibition. [PDF]
, 2010 Early in life, neural circuits are highly susceptible to outside influences. The organization of the primary auditory cortex (A1) in particular is governed by acoustic experience during the critical period, an epoch near the beginning of postnatal ...

Multisensory Integration Sites Identified by Perception of Spatial Wavelet Filtered Visual Speech Gesture Information [PDF]
, 2004 Perception of speech is improved when presentation of the audio signal is accompanied by concordant visual speech gesture information. This enhancement is most prevalent when the audio signal is degraded.

Induction of slow oscillations by rhythmic acoustic stimulation [PDF]
Journal of Sleep Research, 2012 SummarySlow oscillations are electrical potential oscillations with a spectral peak frequency of ∼0.8 Hz, and hallmark the electroencephalogram during slow‐wave sleep. Recent studies have indicated a causal contribution of slow oscillations to the consolidation of memories during slow‐wave sleep, raising the question to what extent such oscillations ...

Acoustically Stimulated Charge Transport in Graphene Film
Nanomaterials, 2022 The process of acoustically stimulated charge transport in the graphene film on the surface of the YZ−cut of a LiNbO3 crystal was investigated. It was found that the dependence of the current in the graphene film on the frequency of the surface acoustic wave (SAW) excitation repeats the amplitude-frequency response of the SAW delay time line.

Tinnitus, medial olivocochlear system and music exposure in adolescents [PDF]
, 2017 The most common cause of tinnitus is the exposure to noise; in the case of adolescents, music is the main sound source they are exposed to. Currently, one of the hypotheses about the genesis of tinnitus is related to the deterioration in the functioning ...

Understanding and measuring mechanical signals in the tumor stroma
FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.This review discusses cancer‐associated fibroblast subtypes and their functions, particularly in relation to extracellular matrix production, as well as the development of 3D models to study tumor stroma mechanics in vitro. Several quantitative techniques to measure tissue mechanical properties are also described, to emphasize the diagnostic and ...
