Insights into Age-Related Functional Brain Changes during Audiovisual Integration Tasks: A Comprehensive EEG Source-Based Analysis [PDF]

arXiv, 2023
The seamless integration of visual and auditory information is a fundamental aspect of human cognition. Although age-related functional changes in Audio-Visual Integration (AVI) have been extensively explored in the past, thorough studies across various age groups remain insufficient. Previous studies have provided valuable insights into agerelated AVI

Geometric Atlas of the Middle Ear and Paranasal Sinuses for Robotic Applications [PDF]

, 2021
In otolaryngologic surgery, more and more robots are being studied to meet the clinical needs of operating rooms. However, to help design and optimize these robots, the workspace must be precisely defined taking into account patient variability. The aim of this work is to define a geometric atlas of the middle ear and paranasal sinuses for endoscopic ...

Benefits of having friends in older ages: differential effects of informal social activities on well-being in middle-aged and older adults.

The journals of gerontology. Series B, Psychological sciences and social sciences, 2014
OBJECTIVES It has been considered a fact that informal social activities promote well-being in old age, irrespective of whether they are performed with friends or family members. Fundamental differences in the relationship quality between family members (

Brain Connectivity Features-based Age Group Classification using Temporal Asynchrony Audio-Visual Integration Task [PDF]

arXiv, 2023
The process of integration of inputs from several sensory modalities in the human brain is referred to as multisensory integration. Age-related cognitive decline leads to a loss in the ability of the brain to conceive multisensory inputs. There has been considerable work done in the study of such cognitive changes for the old age groups.

A risk society? Environmental hazards, risk and resilience in the later Middle Ages in Europe

Natural Hazards, 2013
Modern society is said to have restructured in reaction to contemporary hazards with the aim of improving its management of risk. This implies that pre-industrial societies were somehow fundamentally different. In this paper, we challenge that hypothesis

Age-aggregation bias in mortality trends [PDF]

, 2015
In a recent article in PNAS, Case and Deaton show a figure illustrating "a marked increase in the all-cause mortality of middle-aged white non-Hispanic men and women in the United States between 1999 and 2013." The authors state that their numbers "are not age-adjusted within the 10-y 45-54 age group." They calculated the mortality rate each year by ...

The Development of Industry and Commerce in Wales During the Middle Ages

Transactions of the Royal Historical Society, 1903
The development of industry and commerce in Wales during the Middle Ages may be regarded from two points of view. On the one hand we are concerned with the gradual decay of the commerce carried on by the inhabitants of the western regions of tribal ...

The TIME Table: Rotation and Ages of Cool Exoplanet Host Stars [PDF]

, 2023
Age is a stellar parameter that is both fundamental and difficult to determine. Among middle-aged M dwarfs, the most prolific hosts of close-in and detectable exoplanets, gyrochronology is the most promising method to assign ages, but requires calibration by rotation-temperature sequences (gyrochrones) in clusters of known ages. We curated a catalog of
