Individuals vary in their overt attention preference for positive images consistently across time and stimulus types.

What humans look at strongly determines what they see. We show that individual differences in the tendency to look at positive stimuli are stable across time and across contents, establishing gaze positivity preference as a perceptual trait that determines the amount of positively valence stimuli individuals select for visual processing. Furthermore, we show that patients with major depressive disorder exhibit consistently low positivity preference before treatment.

Higher Regional Gray Matter Volume and White Matter Integrity in Individuals With Central Neuropathic Pain After Spinal Cord Injury.

Spinal cord injury (SCI) is a debilitating neurological condition that often leads to central neuropathic pain (CNP). As the fundamental mechanism of CNP is not fully established, its management is one of the most challenging problems among people with SCI. To shed more light on CNP mechanisms, the aim of this cross-sectional study was to compare the brain structure between individuals with SCI and CNP and those without CNP by examining the gray matter (GM) volume and the white matter (WM) integrity.

Aspirin with Low-Dose Ticagrelor or with Low-Dose Rivaroxaban for Secondary Prevention: A Cost per Outcome Analysis.

Introduction: Secondary prevention of cardiovascular events among patients with diagnosed cardiovascular disease and high ischemic risk poses a significant challenge in clinical practice. The combinations of aspirin with low-dose (LD) ticagrelor or LD rivaroxaban have shown superiority in preventing major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) compared with aspirin treatment alone. The comparative value for money of these two regimens remains unexplored.

The long-term effect of short point of care ultrasound course on physicians' daily practice.

Background: The benefits of Point of Care Ultrasound (POCUS) are well established in the literature. As it is an operator-dependent modality, the operator is required to be skilled in obtaining and interpreting images. Physicians who are not trained in POCUS attend courses to acquire the basics in this field.

Hand dominancy--a feature affecting sensitivity to pain.

Hand dominancy (i.e. handedness) is a factor that should be considered for further characterizing individual variations in sensitivity to pain.

The "reading the mind in films" task: complex emotion recognition in adults with and without autism spectrum conditions.

Background: Individuals with autism spectrum conditions (ASC) have difficulties recognizing mental states in others. Most research has focused on recognition of basic emotions from faces and voices separately. This study reports the results of a new task, assessing recognition of complex emotions and mental states from social scenes taken from feature films.

The 'Reading the Mind in Films' Task [child version]: complex emotion and mental state recognition in children with and without autism spectrum conditions.

Children with autism spectrum conditions (ASC) have difficulties recognizing others' emotions. Research has mostly focused on basic emotion recognition, devoid of context. This study reports the results of a new task, assessing recognition of complex emotions and mental states in social contexts.
