Genetic Evaluation and Pregnancy Outcomes in Foetuses With Overgrowth at a Tertiary Referral Center

Journal of Cellular and Molecular Medicine, Volume 30, Issue 14, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Fetal overgrowth is defined as one or more biometric parameters exceeding the 90th–97th percentile or 2 standard deviations above the mean for gestational age. This study aimed to evaluate genetic findings in foetuses diagnosed with sonographic overgrowth.

Brain–Computer Interfaces: The Dawn of a New Era in Disease Treatment

Exploration, Volume 6, Issue 3, June 2026.
This study investigates the potential of brain–computer interface (BCI) technology in treating neuropsychiatric disorders, such as movement and communication barriers. Our review examines the history, signal paradigms, and diverse applications of BCI while also discussing ongoing research into novel materials and emerging technologies that offer ...

Probing Prediction‐Related Processes in Language Using an EEG Word Stem Completion Paradigm

Psychophysiology, Volume 63, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Humans comprehend language rapidly, with active prediction of upcoming words as a key mechanism. Studies using sentences have documented facilitations in behavior and brain activity (N400) when people encounter predictable words, and brain responses (anterior positivity) specific to prediction violations.

Assessing the exercise‐related kinetics of circulating cell‐free DNA, circulating tumour DNA, DNase I activity and cytokines in patients with solid tumours: A pilot study

Experimental Physiology, Volume 111, Issue 6, Page 2963-2974, 1 June 2026.
Abstract Circulating cell‐free DNA (cfDNA), circulating tumour DNA (ctDNA) and inflammatory cytokines have prognostic and predictive value in oncology. However, the effects of acute exercise on cfDNA levels are unknown. Here, we explore the kinetics of cfDNA, ctDNA and cytokines upon an incremental exercise test in a pilot cohort of cancer patients ...

Uncovering Heart Rate Response Patterns to Threat Pictures Through Deep Latent Representation Learning with a Variational Autoencoder

Psychophysiology, Volume 63, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Group‐level averaging of psychophysiological data often obscures meaningful individual differences, masking response patterns that may explain variability in behavior and central nervous system activity. Identifying such patterns is particularly relevant in heart rate (HR) responses to threat, where subtle variations may reflect distinct ...

Photoplethysmography for Measuring Cognitive Load in XR Environments: A Systematic Review

Advanced Sensor Research, Volume 5, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Photoplethysmography (PPG) is a low‐cost, low‐power biosensing technology with growing applications in education, particularly for monitoring cognitive load in eXtended Reality (XR) learning environments. Measuring cognitive load is critical for preventing overload and optimising immersive learning, yet existing approaches such as self‐reports

The Oxygen Equivalent of Lactate Accumulation and Sex: Similar Work–Lactate Slopes in Men and Women Regardless of Body or Fat‐Free Mass Scaling

FASEB BioAdvances, Volume 8, Issue 3, March 2026.
Capillary blood lactate was sampled repeatedly after a 15‐s all‐out sprint in women (n = 23) and men (n = 48). Glycolytic energy contribution was estimated from lactate accumulation (ΔLa) scaled either to body mass or to fat‐free mass and related to 15‐s work.

MAC Protocol Design for Optical Wireless Body‐Area Networks: Latency, Energy Efficiency and Scalability Analysis

IET Networks, Volume 15, Issue 1, January/December 2026.
This work investigates suitable MAC protocols for medical optical wireless body‐area networks (WBANs), focussing on multiple access management. Using realistic channel models, we evaluate the network performance in terms of energy efficiency, quality‐of‐service and scalability for different IEEE protocols, for both intra‐ and extra‐WBAN connectivity in
