The influence of sham feedback on physiological processing during fear-driven stimulation.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2021
Biofeedback constitutes a well-established, non-invasive method to voluntary interfere in emotional processing by means of cognitive strategies. However, treatment durations exhibit strong inter-individual variations and first successes can often be ...

Tubuloglomerular feedback: Its physiological and pathophysiological significance [PDF]

open access: yesKidney International, 1998
The mammalian nephron has a unique structure called juxtaglomerular apparatus (JGA); the primary function of the JGA includes tubuloglomerular feedback. Why is such a structure necessary? Analyses of available data strongly suggest that JGA has evolved to provide a fine tuning of the autoregulation of glomerular hemodynamics and high glomerular ...

Predictive feedback control and Fitts' law [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Fitts’ law is a well established empirical formula, known for encapsulating the “speed-accuracy trade-off”. For discrete, manual movements from a starting location to a target, Fitts’ law relates movement duration to the distance moved and target size ...

Evaluation of a vibrotactile feedback device for spatial guidance [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
In the present study, a vibrotactile feedback device for spatial guidance was evaluated in a tracking task paradigm. Participants (N = 18) had to translate and rotate virtual objects according to the vibrotactile vs.

Do I really feel it? The contributions of subjective fluency and compatibility in low-level effects on aesthetic appreciation

open access: yesFrontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2015
The causes for the liking of objects are multifaceted. According to the processing fluency account, the ease with which an object is processed leads to a subjective feeling of fluency.

Vascular and Neural Response to Focal Vibration, Sensory Feedback, and Piezo Ion Channel Signaling

open access: yesJournal of Vascular Diseases, 2023
Focal vibration therapy seeks to restore the physiological function of tissues and the nervous system. Recommendations for vibration settings, e.g., that could improve residual limb health and prosthesis acceptance in people with amputation, are pending.

Evaluation of the Visual Environment of Community Third Places Based on Emotional Perceptions

open access: yesBuildings
A well-designed visual environment in community third places has significant positive effects on residents’ emotional well-being. Only a few studies have examined these effects; therefore, this study comprehensively explores the effect of the visual ...

Control of tissue homeostasis, tumorigenesis, and degeneration by coupled bidirectional bistable switches.

open access: yesPLoS Computational Biology, 2021
The Hippo-YAP/TAZ signaling pathway plays a critical role in tissue homeostasis, tumorigenesis, and degeneration disorders. The regulation of YAP/TAZ levels is controlled by a complex regulatory network, where several feedback loops have been identified.

Physiological Positive Feedback Mechanisms

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Biomedical Sciences, 2011
In positive feedback mechanisms, the response to a stimulus does not stop or reverse it but instead keeps the sequence of events going up. At first glance, this would appear to be a counter to the principle of homeostasis, since a positive feedback loop has no obvious means of stopping.
