Objective: This study investigates the association of nightmares beyond general sleep disturbance on neurobehavioral symptoms in adults with mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI).

Design: Secondary analysis of a concussion cohort study.

Participants: One hundred and eleven adults older than 20 years with mTBI were recruited from a specialized concussion treatment center.

Branching out: Feasibility of examining the effects of greenspace on mental health after traumatic brain injury.

Aim: This pilot study's aim was to determine the feasibility of examining the effects of an environmental variable (i.e., tree canopy coverage) on mental health after sustaining a brain injury.

Language Abilities are Associated with Both Verbal and Nonverbal Intelligence in Children on the Autism Spectrum.

Intellectual abilities factor into levels of functioning used to characterize autism. Language difficulties are highly prevalent in autism and may impact performance on measures of intellectual abilities. As such, nonverbal tests are often prioritized in classifying intelligence in those with language difficulties and autism.

Neuropsychological considerations for long-duration deep spaceflight.

The deep space environment far beyond low-Earth orbit (LEO) introduces multiple and simultaneous risks for the functioning and health of the central nervous system (CNS), which may impair astronauts' performance and wellbeing. As future deep space missions to Mars, moons, or asteroids will also exceed current LEO stay durations and are estimated to require up to 3 years, we review recent evidence with contemporary and historic spaceflight case studies addressing implications for long-duration missions. To highlight the need for specific further investigations, we provide neuropsychological considerations integrating cognitive and motor functions, neuroimaging, neurological biomarkers, behavior changes, and mood and affect to construct a multifactorial profile to explain performance variability, subjective experience, and potential risks.

[PREVALENCE OF TOBACCO SMOKING AMONG MENTAL HEALTH INPATIENTS IN ISRAEL].

Introduction: Tobacco smoking is the worldwide leading preventable cause of morbidity [1]. The prevalence of current smoking among individuals with mental illnesses is more than twice as that of the general population [2]. Despite it being a primary cause of morbidity and mortality in Israel too, there is little information and research on the features of smoking among people with mental illnesses in Israel.

Shared cognitive mechanisms of hypnotizability with executive functioning and information salience.

In recent years, evidence linked hypnotizability to the executive control and information salience networks, brain structures that play a role in cognitive conflict resolution and perseveration (insisting on applying a previously learned logical rule on a new set). Despite the growing body of neuroimaging evidence, the cognitive phenotype of hypnotizability is not well understood. We hypothesized that higher hypnotizability would correspond to lower perseveration and set-shifting.

Posthypnotic Amnesia in Hypnotizability Assessment: Validation of a New Scoring System for the Hypnotic Induction Profile.

The Hypnotic Induction Profile (HIP) is a standardized assessment of hypnotizability featuring a validated 0-10 scoring system, that does not factor in posthypnotic amnesia. Using confirmatory factor analyses (CFA), we compared the 10-point scoring system with a new 12-point system that includes the posthypnotic amnesia item in independent samples of individuals with fibromyalgia ( = 98) and healthy adults ( = 97). Additionally, we explored associations of the two scoring systems with measures of hypnotic phenomena.

Subjective sleep quality is poorly associated with actigraphy and heart rate measures in community-dwelling older men.

Objectives: There has been a proliferation in the use of commercially-available accelerometry- and heart rate-based wearable devices to monitor sleep. While the underlying technology is reasonable at detecting sleep quantity, the ability of these devices to predict subjective sleep quality is currently unknown. We tested whether the fundamental signals from such devices are useful in determining subjective sleep quality.

Sleep/Wake Detection by Behavioral Response to Haptic Stimuli.

Study Objectives: Actigraphy, the tool of choice for assessment of sleep phase disorders, is insensitive to movement-free waking. This study aimed to determine whether the detection of waking could be performed by recording instrumental responses to haptic stimuli delivered by a low-cost device.

Methods: Twenty adults underwent 2 nights of laboratory polysomnography (PSG) while wearing a fingerless glove under which a stimulating actigraph ("Wakemeter") was apposed to the palm.

Establishing a framework for neuropathological correlates and glymphatic system functioning in Parkinson's disease.

Recent evidence has advanced our understanding of the function of sleep to include removal of neurotoxic protein aggregates via the glymphatic system. However, most research on the glymphatic system utilizes animal models, and the function of waste clearance processes in humans remains unclear. Understanding glymphatic function offers new insight into the development of neurodegenerative diseases that result from toxic protein inclusions, particularly those characterized by neuropathological sleep dysfunction, like Parkinson's disease (PD).

Spectrally interleaved topologies using geometric phase metasurfaces.

Metasurfaces facilitate the interleaving of multiple topologies in an ultra-thin photonic system. Here, we report on the spectral interleaving of topological states of light using a geometric phase metasurface. We realize that a dielectric spectrally interleaved metasurface generates multiple interleaved vortex beams at different wavelengths.

Quantum entanglement of the spin and orbital angular momentum of photons using metamaterials.

Metamaterials constructed from deep subwavelength building blocks have been used to demonstrate phenomena ranging from negative refractive index and ε-near-zero to cloaking, emulations of general relativity, and superresolution imaging. More recently, metamaterials have been suggested as a new platform for quantum optics. We present the use of a dielectric metasurface to generate entanglement between the spin and orbital angular momentum of photons.

Disorder-induced optical transition from spin Hall to random Rashba effect.

Disordered structures give rise to intriguing phenomena owing to the complex nature of their interaction with light. We report on photonic spin-symmetry breaking and unexpected spin-optical transport phenomena arising from subwavelength-scale disordered geometric phase structure. Weak disorder induces a photonic spin Hall effect, observed via quantum weak measurements, whereas strong disorder leads to spin-split modes in momentum space, a random optical Rashba effect.

Predicting progression of bladder urothelial carcinoma using microRNA expression.

Unlabelled: WHAT'S KNOWN ON THE SUBJECT? AND WHAT DOES THE STUDY ADD?: Recurrence and progression prediction in urothelial cancer is currently based on clinical and pathological factors: tumour grade, tumour stage, number of lesions, tumour size, previous recurrence rate, and presence of concomitant carcinoma in situ. These factors are not specific enough to predict progression and ∼50% of patients diagnosed as high risk in fact do not progress within 3 years. Patient follow-up is both expensive and unpleasant (frequent invasive cystoscopies).

hsa-miR-191 is a candidate oncogene target for hepatocellular carcinoma therapy.

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is generally a fatal disease due to a paucity of effective treatment options. The identification of oncogenic microRNAs that exert pleiotropic effects in HCC cells may offer new therapeutic targets. In this study, we have identified the human microRNA miR-191 as a potential target for HCC therapy.

Validation of a microRNA-based qRT-PCR test for accurate identification of tumor tissue origin.

Identification of the tissue of origin of a tumor is vital to its management. Previous studies showed tissue-specific expression patterns of microRNA and suggested that microRNA profiling would be useful in addressing this diagnostic challenge. MicroRNAs are well preserved in formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded (FFPE) samples, further supporting this approach.

siRNA targeted to p53 attenuates ischemic and cisplatin-induced acute kidney injury.

Proximal tubule cells (PTCs), which are the primary site of kidney injury associated with ischemia or nephrotoxicity, are the site of oligonucleotide reabsorption within the kidney. We exploited this property to test the efficacy of siRNA targeted to p53, a pivotal protein in the apoptotic pathway, to prevent kidney injury. Naked synthetic siRNA to p53 injected intravenously 4 h after ischemic injury maximally protected both PTCs and kidney function.

Structure and implied functions of truncated B-cell receptor mRNAs in early embryo and adult mesenchymal stem cells: Cdelta replaces Cmu in mu heavy chain-deficient mice.

Stem cells exhibit a promiscuous gene expression pattern. We show herein that the early embryo and adult MSCs express B-cell receptor component mRNAs. To examine possible bearings of these genes on the expressing cells, we studied immunoglobulin mu chain-deficient mice.

Inhibition of oxygen-induced retinopathy in RTP801-deficient mice.

Purpose: Ischemic proliferative retinopathy, which occurs as a complication of diabetes mellitus, prematurity, or retinal vein occlusion, is a major cause of blindness worldwide. In addition to retinal neovascularization, it involves retinal degeneration, of which apoptosis is the main cause. A prior report has described the cloning of a novel HIF-1-responsive gene, RTP801, which displays strong hypoxia-dependent upregulation in ischemic cells of neuronal origin, both in vitro and in vivo.

CMF608-a novel mechanical strain-induced bone-specific protein expressed in early osteochondroprogenitor cells.

Microarray gene expression analysis was utilized to identify genes upregulated in primary rat calvaria cultures in response to mechanical force. One of the identified genes designated CMF608 appeared to be novel. The corresponding full-length cDNA was cloned and characterized in more details.

[Physical and chemical properties of the condensate of breathed-out air in healthy people].

The physical-and-chemical condition of condensate of breathed-out moisture (CBM) was studied by the computer-aided analysis of axis-symmetric drops' form in healthy subjects; such condition was found to depend on sex, age and smoking-addiction of the examined persons. The surface tension of the mentioned moisture correlated with its viscoelastic index and with relaxation. The metabolites of nitric oxide, lipids, urea, lactic acid (not uric acid) and of hydrogen peroxide were found to influence the physical-and-chemical parameters of respiratory moisture.
