Effects of Noninvasive Cervical Vagal Nerve Stimulation on Cognitive Performance But Not Brain Activation in Healthy Adults

open access: yesNeuromodulation: Technology at the Neural Interface, EarlyView., 2020
Abstract Objectives While preliminary evidence suggests that noninvasive vagal nerve stimulation (nVNS) may enhance cognition, to our knowledge, no study has directly assessed the effects of nVNS on brain function and cognitive performance in healthy individuals.

Local field potentials of the auricular Vagus nerve - In-silico stimulation and recording

open access: yes, 2022
Measuring the activity of the parasympathetic and sympathetic nervous system (PSNS and SYNS, respectively) has always been a challenge. Until recently, usually non-invasive but unspecific heart rate variability was used, which mainly reflects activity of

The skeleton of the green Iguana iguana (Squamata: Iguanidae) and its intraspecific morphological variation

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The green iguana (Iguana iguana) is an iguanine lizard with herbivorous and arboreal habits, whose distribution spans through South America, Central America to the south of North America. Although the genus Iguana is well‐known, the species still lacks a comprehensive and up‐to‐date anatomical study, particularly addressing the axial skeleton,

A hybrid auricular control system: direct, simultaneous, and proportional myoelectric control of two degrees of freedom in prosthetic hands [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Objective. The conventional myoelectric control scheme of hand prostheses provides a high level of robustness during continuous use. Typically, the electrical activity of an agonist/antagonist muscle pair in the forearm is detected and used to control ...

Cranial anatomy of a Late Cretaceous aspidorhynchid fish (Neopterygii: Aspidorhynchiformes) from Alberta, Canada

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Belonostomus longirostrisis was named for an isolated jaw fragment from freshwater Upper Cretaceous (Campanian) sediments of the Dinosaur Park Formation of Alberta, Canada. Following the description of the Albertan species, numerous isolated cranial and postcranial elements have been collected from the Dinosaur Park Formation and assigned to B.

Video_3_Human-machine interface for two-dimensional steering control with the auricular muscles.MP4

open access: yes, 2023
Human-machine interfaces (HMIs) can be used to decode a user's motor intention to control an external device. People that suffer from motor disabilities, such as spinal cord injury, can benefit from the uses of these interfaces.

Descriptive, comparative, and functional anatomy of the facial musculature in cattle (Bos taurus)

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Facial expressions can provide insight into animal emotions and pain, but no standardized system for assessing the entire facial display in cattle (Bos taurus Linnaeus) exists. The Facial Action Coding System (FACS), originally developed for humans, identifies distinct facial movements based on mimetic muscles.

Projection from the Facial Nucleus to the Auricular Muscles of Rabbits

open access: yesOkajimas Folia Anatomica Japonica, 2004
The auricular muscles correspond to the group of facial muscles that allows the auricle to move freely. The shape of the auricle and the location of the muscles on the head differs among species. The rabbit has eight auricular muscles that are innervated by motoneurons originating from the facial nucleus located on the ventral side of the medulla ...

MicroCT reinvestigation of the only articulated fossil anostomid fish reveals synonymy of Arhinolemur Ameghino, 1898 and Megaleporinus Ramirez et al., 2017

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Arhinolemur scalabrinii† Ameghino, 1898 was originally described as a strepsirrhine primate (Mammalia) but has been recognized as an anostomid fish since 2012. It remains the only extinct anostomid species known from complete cranial material.
