Invisible light inside the natural blind spot alters brightness at a remote location
Scientific Reports, 2018 The natural blind spot in the visual field has been known as a large oval region that cannot receive any optical input because it corresponds to the retinal optic disk containing no rod/cone-photoreceptors. Recently, stimulation inside the blind spot was

PHARMACOLOGICAL STUDIES ON PUPILLARY REFLEX DILATATION
Japanese Journal of Pharmacology, 1965 Concerning the role of sympathetic and parasympathetic mechanisms in reflex dilatation of the pupil elicited by painful stimuli, there have long been many arguments. One group of authors, for example, Bechterew (1) and Braunstein (2) concluded that the pupillary dilatation resulting from painful stimuli was caused solely by inhibition of the third ...

Internationalising the teacher education curriculum: An analysis of syllabi and student experiences
The Curriculum Journal, EarlyView.Abstract Internationalisation has increasingly become a key dimension of quality in initial teacher education (ITE) programmes. Although it is recognised as a means to strengthen future teachers' competencies and expand their professional knowledge, it remains underdeveloped in practice.

Comparison of acute non-visual bright light responses in patients with optic nerve disease, glaucoma and healthy controls. [PDF]
, 2015 This study examined the effect of optic nerve disease, hence retinal ganglion cell loss, on non-visual functions related to melanopsin signalling. Test subjects were patients with bilateral visual loss and optic atrophy from either hereditary optic ...

Research progress on the depth of anesthesia monitoring based on the electroencephalogram
Ibrain, Volume 11, Issue 1, Page 32-43, Spring 2025.Electroencephalogram (EEG) can noninvasive, continuous, and real‐time monitor the state of brain electrical activity, and the monitoring of EEG can reflect changes in the depth of anesthesia (DOA). The development of artificial intelligence can enable anesthesiologists to extract, analyze, and quantify DOA from complex EEG data.
