Evolution of the human fear-circuitry and acute sociogenic pseudoneurological symptoms: The Neolithic balanced-polymorphism hypothesis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
In light of the increasing threat of large-scale massacres such as terrorism against non-combatants (civilians), more attention is warranted not only to posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) but also to acute sociogenic pseudoneurological ("conversion ...

Artificial Piezoelectric Interface Enables Ultrafast Interfacial Ion Kinetic for Highly‐Sensitive Piezoionic Sensors

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study proposes a piezoelectric interface modification strategy to amplify the piezoionic effect. The piezoelectric interface generates an intrinsic electric field, which not only drives rapid ion migration but also concentrates polarized ions on the interface. The flexible sensor delivers superior performance, such as a quick response rate, strong

Jaw Clenching Alters Neuromuscular Coordination in Dynamic Postural Tasks: A Pilot Study on Single-Leg Sit-to-Stand Movements

open access: yesBiomechanics
Background/Objective: Postural stability and motor coordination require precise regulation of agonist and antagonist muscle activities. Jaw clenching modulates neuromuscular control during static and reactive postural tasks.

A Stretchable, Mechanically‐Interlocked Polyrotaxane Hydrogel for Wearable Motion and Electrophysiological Monitoring

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A mechanically interlocked polyrotaxane hydrogel integrates sliding macrocycles within a covalent network, yielding skin‑like softness, high stretchability, robust adhesion, and stable ionic conductivity. This multifunctional interface enables simultaneous high‑fidelity monitoring of human motion and epidermal electrophysiological signals (ECG/EMG ...

Probabilistic Knowledge in Action [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
According to a standard assumption in epistemology, if one only partially believes that p , then one cannot thereby have knowledge that p. For example, if one only partially believes that that it is raining outside, one cannot know ...

Diatom‐Inspired 1D Immobile Robots Capable of 2D Collective Mobility

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
This study presents a diatom‐inspired robotic system that explores group coordination through limited physical interactions. The researchers tune groups of Barbots, simple robotic agents that possess neither individual mobility nor explicit communication capabilities, to achieve complex and adaptive collaboration based on environmental light.

Anscombe on Intentions and Commands [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The title of this essay describes its topic. I open by discussing the two-knowledges/one-object worry that Anscombe introduces through her famous example of the water-pumper.

Preparation and execution of teeth clenching and foot muscle contraction influence on corticospinal hand-muscle excitability [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Contraction of a muscle modulates not only the corticospinal excitability (CSE) of the contracting muscle but also that of different muscles. We investigated to what extent the CSE of a hand muscle is modulated during preparation and execution of teeth ...

Prenatal Evaluation of RNU4‐2 Variants in Fetuses With Central Nervous System Anomalies

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part C: Seminars in Medical Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Fetal central nervous system (CNS) anomalies are among the most common congenital malformations, yet the overall prenatal diagnostic yield of current genetic testing remains below 40%. Variants in RNU4‐2, a non‐coding gene encoding the U4 small nuclear RNA (snRNA), have recently been linked to a novel highly recurrent dominant ...
