Transcranial electric stimulation and cognitive training improves face perception [PDF]

, 2014
Recently, there has been much interest the effectiveness of cognitive training programmes across a variety of cognitive and perceptual domains. Some evidence suggests that combining training programmes with noninvasive brain stimulation techniques such ...

Tracking Climate and Environmental Attention: A News‐Based Composite Index

Corporate Social Responsibility and Environmental Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study introduces the Climate and Environmental Attention Index, a composite indicator that tracks media attention to climate and environmental issues. Based on the Semantic Brand Score, the proposed index extracts significant signals from unstructured text, going beyond traditional measures of word frequency and sentiment.

Transcranial random noise stimulation is more effective than transcranial direct current stimulation for enhancing working memory in healthy individuals: Behavioural and electrophysiological evidence

Brain Stimulation, 2020
Background: Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) has been shown to improve working memory (WM) performance in healthy individuals, however effects tend to be modest and variable.

Backup machinery of yeast transcriptional regulatory network [PDF]

, 2008
Several studies have suggested the existence of backup machinery of transcriptional regulatory networks (TRNs). Here, we have quantified the backup machinery of yeast gene's TRNs under five different conditions in terms of alternate paths and have ...

Opposite effects of high- and low-frequency transcranial random noise stimulation probed with visual motion adaptation [PDF]

, 2016
Transcranial random noise stimulation (tRNS) is a recent neuro-modulation technique whose effects at both behavioural and neural level are still debated.

The β integrin modulates serotonin sensitivity via NPxY motifs to regulate egg laying and mechanosensation behaviors in Caenorhabditis elegans

Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Integrin is an αβ heterodimeric receptor to the extracellular matrix; its binding to the matrix recruits focal adhesions to two NPxY motifs, the tyrosine phosphorylation sites in the cytoplasmic domain. Studies found that replacing tyrosines (Y) with phenylalanines (F) in the motif of β1 integrin displayed little developmental or ...

Brane-Inspired Orientifold Field Theories [PDF]

, 2004
In this paper we consider the gauge theory living on the world-volume of a stack of N D3-branes of Type 0B/\Omega' I_6(-1)^{F_{L}} and of its orbifolds C^2/Z_2 and C^3/(Z_2 x Z_2). The gauge theories obtained in the three cases are a brane realization of

Recycling‐Induced Changes of Molecular Weight and Structural Properties in PET Monopolymer Blends

Journal of Polymer Science, EarlyView.
The present study investigates the molecular weight, thermal, rheological, and mechanical properties of polymer blends of high and low molecular weight polyethylene terephthalate (PET) components. The research reveals that extrusion processing influences chain scission and chain extension, inhibiting the broadening of the molecular weight distribution ...

Examining transcranial random noise stimulation as an add-on treatment for persistent symptoms in schizophrenia (STIM’Zo): a study protocol for a multicentre, double-blind, randomized sham-controlled clinical trial

Trials, 2021
Background One out of three patients with schizophrenia failed to respond adequately to antipsychotics and continue to experience debilitating symptoms such as auditory hallucinations and negative symptoms.
