Cognitive conflict effects are well characterized within unimodality. However, little is known about cross-modal conflicts and their neural bases. This study characterizes the two types of visual and auditory cross-modal conflicts through working mem...

Introduction. Cognitive impairment represents one of the most hidden and disabling clinical aspects of multiple sclerosis (MS). In this regard, the major challenges are represented by the need for a comprehensive and standardised cognitive evaluation...

Traditionally, quantitative electroencephalography (QEEG) studies collect data within controlled laboratory environments that limit the external validity of scientific conclusions. To probe these validity limits, we used a mobile EEG system to record...

This research introduces an innovative platform designed to manage greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in mixed farms. Emphasizing the urgent need to address GHG emissions, particularly methane (CH₄) and nitrous oxide (N₂O), the platform targets mixed far...

As medical technologies are continuously evolving, consumer involvement in health is also increasing significantly. The integration of the Internet of Things (IoT) concept in the health domain may improve the quality of healthcare through the use of...

Sprayers for vineyards with solution recovery represent an important innovation, offering several advantages, the most important being the efficient use of pesticides and environmental protection. This paper presents the experimental equipment design...

Certain citations included in the manuscript were not fully aligned with the scope of the study [...]

Parkinson’s disease (PD) is the second most common neurodegenerative disease. It primarily affects the motor system but is also associated with a range of cognitive impairments that can manifest early in disease progression, indicating its mult...

Background/Objectives: Performing cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) is cognitively demanding, often requiring helpers to perform cognitive and manual tasks simultaneously. While the human brain primarily switches between tasks rather than processin...

Objective: To explore the characteristics and dynamic evolution of cognitive impairment in patients with neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD). Methods: Twenty-five patients with acute NMOSD and 30 age-matched healthy individuals were consec...

While emotion dysregulation has been investigated as a key variable in the development and persistence of personality psychopathology, few studies have explored state emotion dysregulation among individuals with personality disorders (PDs). The curre...

Emerging evidence links dietary interventions to favorable multiple sclerosis (MS) outcomes; however, evidence for the efficacy of dietary interventions on functional disability remains sparse. Data from two 12-week, randomized, controlled pilot tria...

Whether brain temperature noninvasively extracted by magnetic resonance imaging has a role in identifying brain changes in the later phases of mild to moderate traumatic brain injury (TBI) is not known. This prospective study aimed to evaluate if TBI...

Background/Objectives: Neuropsychological impairment (NI) is common in newly diagnosed patients with multiple sclerosis (pwMS). This study has two main objectives; the systematic review aims to describe the relationship between NI and molecular bioma...

(1) Background: Multiple sclerosis (MS), a chronic progressive neurological disorder which affects the central nervous system (CNS), can result in disorders of all the functions controlled by the CNS: motor, sensory, cognitive and emotional. Physical...

The study assesses the relationship between thalamic proton-MR spectroscopy (¹H-MRS) metabolites and thalamic ¹¹C-ER176 translocator-protein positron emission tomography (TSPO-PET) standardized uptake value ratios (SUVR) to advance our understanding...

Stress is an insidious health risk that is commonly reported among university students. While research suggests that dog exposure may facilitate recovery from a stress response, little is known about the buffer effect of dog exposure on the stress re...

The aims of this research are to assess the level of satisfaction with medical care among patients treated in osteoporosis clinics and to determine the relationship among the frequency of visits to the doctor, the duration of treatment, socio-demogra...

The restriction imposed worldwide for limiting the spread of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) globally impacted our lives, decreasing people’s wellbeing, causing increased anxiety, depression, and stress and affecting cognitive functions, such as...

Background: Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic inflammatory disease of the central nervous system, which can lead to physical and cognitive disability, fatigue, depression, and sleep disturbance, all of which may impair quality of life (QoL). While...
