Color is the most frequently studied feature in visual working memory (VWM). Oddly, much of this work de-emphasizes perception, instead making simplifying assumptions about the inputs served to memory. We question these assumptions in light of perception research, and we identify important points of contact between perception and working memory in the case of color. Better characterization of its perceptual inputs will be crucial for elucidating the structure and function of VWM.

Feasibility and effects of cognitive training on cognition and psychosocial function in Huntington's disease: a randomised pilot trial.

J Neurol

January 2025

Turner Institute for Brain and Mental Health, School of Psychological Sciences, Faculty of Medicine, Nursing and Health Sciences, Monash University, 18 Innovation Walk, Clayton, Victoria, 3800, Australia.

Background: Huntington's disease (HD) is a rare neurodegenerative disease that causes progressive cognitive, physical, and psychiatric symptoms. Computerised cognitive training (CCT) is a novel intervention that aims to improve and maintain cognitive functions through repeated practice. The effects of CCT have yet to be established in HD.

Rationale: Psilocybin shows promise for treating neuropsychiatric disorders. However, insight into its acute effects on cognition is lacking. Given the significant role of executive functions in daily life and treatment efficacy, it is crucial to evaluate how psilocybin influences these cognitive domains.

Shaping the Space: A Role for the Hippocampus in Mental Imagery Formation.

Vision (Basel)

January 2025

Centre for the Study of Perceptual Experience, Department of Philosophy, University of Glasgow, Glasgow G12 8QQ, UK.

Mental imagery is claimed to underlie a host of abilities, such as episodic memory, working memory, and decision-making. A popular view holds that mental imagery relies on the perceptual system and that it can be said to be 'vision in reverse'. Whereas vision exploits the bottom-up neural pathways of the visual system, mental imagery exploits the top-down neural pathways.

Primary progressive aphasia (PPA) is a clinical syndrome characterized by a progressive deterioration in language and speech. It is classified into three variants based on symptom patterns: logopenic, semantic, and non-fluent. Due to the lack of fully reliable and valid screening tests for diagnosing PPA and its variants, a Spanish version of the Mini Linguistic State Examination (MLSE) has recently been introduced.

Research on atrial fibrillation diagnosis in electrocardiograms based on CLA-AF model.

Eur Heart J Digit Health

January 2025

Hunan Key Laboratory of Biomedical Nanomaterials and Devices, Hunan University of Technology, No. 88 West Taishan Road, Zhuzhou 412007, Hunan, China.

Aims: The electrocardiogram (ECG) is the primary method for diagnosing atrial fibrillation (AF), but interpreting ECGs can be time-consuming and labour-intensive, which deserves more exploration.

Methods And Results: We collected ECG data from 6590 patients as YY2023, classified as Normal, AF, and Other. Convolutional Neural Network (CNN), bidirectional Long Short-Term Memory (BiLSTM), and Attention construct the AF recognition model CNN BiLSTM Attention-Atrial Fibrillation (CLA-AF).
