Aqueous organic redox flow batteries (AORFBs) are a safe and sustainable solution for the storage of intermittent renewable energy. While several highly soluble two-electron organic molecule negolytes have been developed for AORFBs, most reported organic posolyte species exchange only one electron. Herein, readily available 4,4'-hydrazobis(1-methylpyr ...

Humour plays a crucial role in children's early interactions, likely promoting the development of social understanding and fostering positive social relationships. To date, the connection between humour production in peer play and the development of social understanding skills in middle childhood has received limited attention. In a community sample o ...

The cerebellum's involvement in a range of cognitive, emotional, and motor processes has become increasingly evident. Given the uniformity of the cerebellar cortex's cellular architecture its contributions to varied processes are thought be partially mediated by its patterns of reciprocal connectivity with the rest of the brain. A better understan ...

The present work examined children's attribution of psychological properties to inanimate agents in two experiments. In Study 1, an Interview Task and the Theory of Mind Scale (ToM Scale) were administered to 4-year-olds with either a human or a humanoid robot (NAO) protagonist. Parents also completed the Children's Social Understanding Scale (CSU ...

Introduction: Insomnia is a prevalent yet under-characterized disorder, particularly regarding the heterogeneity of patients and their associated responses to different treatment modalities. This often leads to suboptimal management. There is a need to consider personalized approaches tailored to the characteristics of insomnia phenotypes with regard to o ...

Humans can flexibly extract a regular beat from complex rhythmic auditory patterns, as often occurs in music. Contemporary models of beat perception suggest that the premotor cortex (PMC) and the supplementary motor area (SMA) are integral to this process. However, how these motor planning regions actively contribute to beat perception, along with any pot ...

Background: Reward-associated cues guide reward-seeking behaviours. These cues include conditioned stimuli (CSs), which occur following seeking actions and predict reward delivery, and discriminative stimuli (DSs), which occur response-independently and signal that a seeking action will produce reward. Metabotropic group II glutamate (mGlu2/3) receptors i ...

The Problem Gambling Severity Index (PGSI) is a popular tool for assessing past-year problems related to gambling. Multiple categorization schemes have been proposed, with scores 3-7 variously interpreted as reflecting a 'moderate' degree of problems. Crucially, it is possible to land in this Moderate-risk category by reporting one or two persiste ...

This survey paper explores the transformative role of Machine Learning (ML) and Artificial Intelligence (AI) in Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR), marking a paradigm shift from conventional, manually driven resuscitation practices to intelligent, data-driven interventions. It examines the evolution of CPR through the lens of predictive modeling, AI-enha ...

Low back pain (LBP) is a disabling disease and a public health concern. Aquatic exercise is an alternative form of exercise with less spinal loading and difficulty performing movements, benefiting those with pain-related fear. This study aimed to investigate the effect of an aquatic exercise prog ...

Developing low-cost and easy-to-use point-of-care devices is necessary for timely disease diagnosis and health monitoring. Here, we introduce all-inclusive, tablet-based chemo/biosensors with rapid automixing features, capable of mixing in highly viscous solutions with viscosities up to 1700 mPa·s. These tablets are created using a simple powder compressi ...
