Vitamin D Supplementation in Functional Recovery of Subjects with Severe Acquired Brain Injury: A Pilot Controlled Randomized Study.

Low vitamin D (VD) has been associated with poor clinical course in several neurological diseases. Supplementation has been suggested to improve outcomes. Severe acquired brain injury (sABI) subjects have low VD levels and disabling conditions requiring rehabilitation.

Low-frequency sounds combined with motor imagery elicits a transient disruption of force performance: A path to neuromotor reprogramming?

The effectiveness of motor imagery (MI) training on sports performance is now well-documented. Recently, it has been proposed that a single session of MI combined with low frequency sound (LFS) might enhance muscle activation. However, the neural mechanisms underlying this effect remain unknown.

Brain wave modulation and EEG power changes during auditory beats stimulation.

Auditory beats stimulation (ABS) has received increased attention for its potential to modulate neural oscillations through a phenomenon described as brain entrainment (i.e synchronization of brain's electrocortical activity to external stimuli at a specific frequency). Recently, a new form of ABS has emerged, inspired by isochronic tones stimulation (IT).

Combining Different Wearable Devices to Assess Gait Speed in Real-World Settings.

Assessing mobility in daily life can provide significant insights into several clinical conditions, such as Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD). In this paper, we present a comprehensive analysis of wearable devices' performance in gait speed estimation and explore optimal device combinations for everyday use. Using data collected from smartphones, smartwatches, and smart shoes, we evaluated the individual capabilities of each device and explored their synergistic effects when combined, thereby accommodating the preferences and possibilities of individuals for wearing different types of devices.
