Calculation disturbances in adults with focal hemispheric damage.

It has been suggested that hemisphere-damaged patients with calculation disorders can be subdivided into 3 groups: agraphia or alexia for numbers, spatial dyscalculia and anarithmetia. The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the role played by visuospatial disorders and by anarithmetia in subjects with impaired calculation abilities. Seventy-six patients with focal hemispheric lesions and 26 normal controls with demonstrated ability to read and write numbers were given a written calculation task, the Token Test, the Crosses Test, a test of Constructional Apraxia and Raven's Progressiv

Fano-Engineered Au@Se Core-Shell Colloidal Pigments for Dual-Mode Structural Color.

Colloidal structural colorants are attractive because they are substrate-free and solution-processable, but single-component plasmonic or di … -component Au or Se colloids. The particles are formulated into ultraviolet (UV)-curable resins and writing inks for 254-ppi color filters, freeform paper deposition, and polarization-selective readout. This work establishes a colloidal design rule in which the shell acts as an active visible resonator rather than a passive refractive-index coating.

Dyslexia screening? As easy as a game. The Starlex project: evidence from an Italian pilot study.

In recent years, serious games have gained increasing attention as effective tools for supporting learning and assessing emerging cognitive skills in early educational settings. Within this perspective, the present study introduces Starlex, a serious game designed to screen pre-literacy skills in children aged 5-7 years, a critical stage for the development of foundational reading and writing abilities. Developed within a PNRR-funded project, the game comprises four mini-games aimed at assessing key predictors of reading acquisition, including visual discrimination and working memory. Followin…

Associations of postural asymmetry with refractive error: an objective photogrammetric analysis in students.

PURPOSE: To assess associations between objectively measured postural misalignments and refractive errors in Chinese adolescents. METHODS: … trical postural misalignments have distinct associations with refractive errors. Head tilt and poor writing posture exhibit distinct associations with anisometropia. These findings highlight the potential value of postural assessment in myopia management.

Enhancing Clinical Note Generation with ICD-10, Clinical Ontology Knowledge Graphs, and Chain-of-Thought Prompting Using GPT-4.

In the past decade, a surge in the amount of electronic health record (EHR) data in the United States has been attributed to a favorable policy environment created by the Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health (HITECH) Act of 2009 and the 21st Century Cures Act of 2016. Clinical notes for patients' assessments, diagnoses, and treatments are captured in these EHRs in free-form text by physicians, who spend a considerable amount of time entering and editing them. Manually writing clinical notes takes a considerable amount of a doctor's valuable time, increasing the patien…

Negative Urgency Amplifies Alcohol Demand in Individuals with Posttraumatic Stress Disorder.

OBJECTIVE: This study sought to test whether negative urgency moderates the relationship between Posttraumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) and alcohol demand. METHOD: In this secondary data analysis, participants (N=101; 58.2% female) completed an online procedure which included, a trauma cue manipulation (expressive writing exercise), pre- and post-cue versions of the Alcohol Purchase Task (APT, measuring alcohol demand), and self-report measures of trauma history, alcohol use, and PTSD symptoms. Five indices of alcohol demand data were calculated: intensity, breakpoint, Omax, Pmax, and elasticit…

In Situ Inorganic Salt-Enabled Laser-Induced Graphene for High-Performance Flexible Capacitive Humidity Sensing.

Flexible capacitive humidity sensors are pivotal for next-generation wearable electronics and Internet of Things (IoT) applications. However, conventional devices suffer from severe salt leaching and delamination of hygroscopic sensing materials, alongside poor interfacial adhesion and mechanical fragility of metallic electrodes. Herein, an innovative in situ strategy is reported for constructing LiCl-CH3COOK/laser-induced graphene (LIG) composite flexible electrodes via single-step laser direct writing. This approach simultaneously patterns three-dimensional (3D) porous LIG interdigitated net…
