Monitoring and assessment for obstructive sleep apnea

open access: yesFlexMat, EarlyView.
This review systematically classifies Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) monitoring indicators into three categories: physical, biochemical, and electrophysiological indicators, and lists several methods for each category. Abstract Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a common chronic sleep‐disordered breathing disease characterized by recurrent upper airway ...

Occupational Exposure to Noise Pollution in Anesthesiology

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Anesthesiology, 2012
The harmful effects of workplace noise pollution are well known and described in the literature. The effects of prolonged exposure to noise in areas demanding high level of concentration, such as operating rooms, depend on the variability of individual responses and intensity of different generation sources. The aim of this paper is to present a review

Dopaminergic novelty detection and theta oscillations: Virtual reality‐based adaptive interventions for cognitive enhancement in aging

open access: yesIbrain, EarlyView.
Aging‐related cognitive decline is associated with reduced dopaminergic signaling and disrupted theta oscillations, which together impair novelty detection and memory formation. This review shows how VR environments can be used to deliver adaptive, novelty‐rich stimuli that engage dopaminergic circuits and entrain theta rhythms, thereby enhancing ...

Occupational Exposure to Infrasonic Noise in Poland

open access: yesJournal of Low Frequency Noise, Vibration and Active Control, 1998
This paper presents the results of infrasonic noise measurements performed at various workplaces in industry and transportation in Poland. The study concerned noise emitted by 124 different types of machinery, appliances and means of transport. The measurements were made under typical conditions of work and with reference to the Polish Standard PN-86/N–

Systemic Lipid Peroxidation and Colorectal Cancer Risk: A Time‐Varying Relationship

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
Experimental studies in animals suggest that oxidative stress (OxS) declines as cancer progresses. Whether this occurs in humans, however, remains unclear. The authors of the present study addressed this question by analyzing lipid, DNA, and RNA oxidation biomarkers in relation to colorectal cancer (CRC) risk in patients from Shanghai and the United ...

Infant frontal alpha asymmetry predicts social attention and transdiagnostic risk for emotional reactivity

open access: yesJCPP Advances, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Differences in Frontal Alpha Asymmetry (FAA), derived from the electroencephalogram (EEG), have been associated with approach‐withdrawal behavior, although inconsistently. The current study examined how early patterns of FAA during the first 2 years of life relate to various socioemotional characteristics (at 2 years) and ultimately

Evaluating noise exposure levels of laboratories in civil engineering education

open access: yes, 2019
One of the most highly found physical contaminants in the working environment is noise, which cause negative health effects associated with the hearing system that could lead to temporary or permanent deafness.

Gaslighting in the context of diagnostic safety: A concept analysis

open access: yesJournal of Healthcare Risk Management, EarlyView.
Abstract Diagnostic errors significantly impact patient outcomes and are often linked to dysfunctional team dynamics. Gaslighting, characterized by patterned distortion and doubt induction, is increasingly recognized among health care professionals and may compromise diagnostic safety.
