In the background of all human thinking—acting and reacting are sets of connections between different neurons or groups of neurons. We studied and evaluated these connections using electroencephalography (EEG) brain signals. In this paper, we p...
Phase synchronization serves as an effective method for analyzing the synchronization of electroencephalogram (EEG) signals among brain regions and the dynamic changes of the brain. The purpose of this paper is to study the construction of the functi...
The goal of neuroaesthetic research is to understand the neural mechanisms underpinning the perception and appreciation of art. The human brain has the remarkable ability to rapidly recognize different artistic styles. Using functional connectivity,...
Shooting is a sport dominated by psychological factors. Hence, disturbing the shooter’s sensory function during aiming will seriously affect his psychological state and shooting performance. Electroencephalograph (EEG) measurements of 30 skille...
Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a heterogeneous neurodevelopmental disorder that interferes with normal brain development. Brain connectivity may serve as a biomarker for ASD in this respect. This study enrolled a total of 179 children aged 3&minus...
Olfactory hedonic evaluation is the primary dimension of olfactory perception and thus central to our sense of smell. It involves complex interactions between brain regions associated with sensory, affective and reward processing. Despite a recent in...
Background: Both aging and cognitive fatigue are significant factors influencing alpha activity in the brain. However, the interactive effects of age and mental fatigue on the alpha spectrum and functional connectivity have not been fully elucidated....
The fusion of electroencephalography (EEG) with machine learning is transforming rehabilitation. Our study introduces a neural network model proficient in distinguishing pre- and post-rehabilitation states in patients with Broca’s aphasia, base...
(1) Background: Brain–computer interface (BCI) technology represents a cutting-edge field that integrates brain intelligence with machine intelligence. Unlike BCIs that rely on external stimuli, motor imagery-based BCIs (MI-BCIs) generate usabl...
Extreme prematurity (EPT, <28 weeks gestation) is associated with language problems. We previously reported hyperconnectivity in EPT children versus term children (TC) using magnetoencephalography (MEG). Here, we aim to ascertain whether functiona...
Subthalamic nucleus deep-brain stimulation (STN-DBS), in addition to a rapid improvement of Parkinson’s disease (PD) motor symptoms, can exert fast, local, neuromodulator activity, reducing β-synchronous oscillations between STN and the mo...
The dominant large-scale interannual modes in the tropical Pacific and Indian Oceans—El Niño southern oscillation (ENSO) and the Indian Ocean Dipole (IOD)—dominate seasonal rainfall patterns in Ethiopia. However, there is a clear i...
Background. Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) over the left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (lDLPFC) was reported to promote the recovery of signs of consciousness in some patients in a minimally conscious state (MCS), but its electrophys...
Ischemic stroke is a type of brain dysfunction caused by pathological changes in the blood vessels of the brain which leads to brain tissue ischemia and hypoxia and ultimately results in cell necrosis. Without timely and effective treatment in the ea...
Background/Objectives: New-onset refractory status epilepticus (NORSE) is a rare neurologic emergency that often requires immunotherapy despite an unclear etiology and poor response to standard treatments. Tocilizumab, an anti-interleukin-6 monoclona...
Background: Table tennis athletes have been extensively studied for their cognitive processing advantages and brain plasticity. However, limited research has focused on the resting-state function of their brains. This study aims to investigate the ne...
Compared to the construction phase, the assessment of tunnel safety risks during the operational stage has not been thoroughly conducted, and the related research work is relatively lagging. To deepen the research and application of theoretical metho...
Dual-mode non-invasive brain stimulation using repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation and transcranial direct current stimulation is known to help neurorehabilitation in patients with stroke. However, this neuromodulation effect may vary depend...
