Vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) effects span central and peripheral organ systems through diverse mechanistic pathways. This comprehensive review provides a unified synthesis of these mechanisms across neurological, cardiovascular, immunological, metabolic, and gastrointestinal domains, filling a critical gap and serving as a foundational resource for ...

The auditory system rapidly detects violations of sound regularities, but it remains unclear whether rarely encountered sounds violating such established regularities (i.e., deviants) themselves can inform prediction. In an adapted oddball paradigm, behavioural results show that conditional rules associated with rarely encountered deviants can be ...

Testing like you teach: The challenge of constructing local, ecologically valid tests [PDF]
In an educational context, local, ecologically valid tests can reflect the use of literacy and thinking tools. These tests present a challenge to central, content focused, high-stakes testing, and to transmission approaches to teaching.

Financial Time Series Uncertainty: A Review of Probabilistic AI Applications
ABSTRACT Probabilistic machine learning models offer a distinct advantage over traditional deterministic approaches by quantifying both epistemic uncertainty (stemming from limited data or model knowledge) and aleatoric uncertainty (due to inherent randomness in the data), along with full distributional forecasts.

Fetal Pain Perception: Legislative Assertions and Developmental Neuroscience
ABSTRACT Background Pain perception is a conscious experience, but neither pain nor consciousness is defined in the developing human fetus. Emergent consciousness may be regarded as a phenomenon that ultimately arises from an essential minimum of functional neuronal connectivity. Proposed U.S.

From Pharmaceutical to Biophysical Therapies: New Horizons in Inflammatory Bowel Disease Management
Important limitations exist in the current pharmacological landscape of Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD), such as variable response rates and treatment‐limiting adverse effects. In this review, we perform a critical assessment of the current literature on novel multimodal biophysical approaches showing alternative mechanisms of action to, and potential
