Post-near task accommodation regressions have been measured in a number of studies to investigate the association between myopia and nearwork. The slow nature of the regression found when measuring both open- and closed-loop regressions in some subjects has been hypothesised to be associated with myopia development and progression. However, it is not known whether the speed and characteristics of the regression for an individual is the same under open- and closed-loop conditions. In this study we measured post-near task accommodation regression functions under open- and closed-loop conditions for myopic and emmetropic subjects. We compared the responses of each subject under the two conditions and found that some subjects responded differently depending on the condition (i.e. a fast regression under one condition and a slow regression under the other condition). When compared as a group, the myopic subjects showed significantly more prolonged open-loop regressions than closed-loop regressions. In terms of the effect on the post-task accommodation, the myopes appear to be more affected by the measurement conditions than the emmetropes in this study. The results highlight the importance of the type of accommodation stimulus when investigating the accommodation response.

Conventional floating bridge systems used during emergency repairs, such as during wartime or after natural disasters, typically rely on passive rubber bearings or semi-active control systems. These methods often limit traffic speed, stability, and safety under dynamic conditions, including varying vehicle loads and fluctuating water levels. To address these challenges, this study proposes a novel Hydraulic Self-Adaptive Bearing System (HABS).

Introduction Preoperative fasting is essential in surgical care to reduce the risk of pulmonary aspiration during anesthesia. International guidelines, such as those from the American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) and the European Society of Anaesthesiology (ESA), recommend fasting durations of six hours for solids and two hours for clear liquids. However, adherence to these guidelines often varies in clinical practice, leading to prolonged fasting times that can negatively impact patient outcomes, including dehydration, hypoglycemia, discomfort, and delayed recovery.

Addressing and mitigating decoherence sources plays an essential role in the development of a scalable quantum computing system, which requires low gate errors to be consistently maintained throughout the circuit execution. While nuclear spin-free materials, such as isotopically purified silicon, exhibit intrinsically promising coherence properties for electron spin qubits, the omnipresent charge noise, when converted to magnetic noise under a strong magnetic field gradient, often hinders stable qubit operation within a time frame comparable to the data acquisition time. Here, we demonstrate both open- and closed-loop suppression techniques for the transduced noise in silicon spin qubits, resulting in a more than two-fold (ten-fold) improvement of the inhomogeneous coherence time (Rabi oscillation quality) that leads to a single-qubit gate fidelity of over 99.

Purpose: Serial dependence refers to the attraction of current perceptual responses toward previously seen stimuli. Despite extensive research on serial dependence, fundamental questions, such as how serial dependence changes with development, whether it affects the perception of sensory input, and what qualifies as serial dependence, remain unresolved. The current study aims to address these questions.
