We studied the characteristics of evoked potentials recorded during the recognition test based on four types of series of images subjected to the wavelet filtration: images of living objects containing either low frequency or high frequency portion of the spatial frequency spectrum, and imaging of non-living objects in the same two spatial frequency bands. Each subject had to classify the image either by its semantic feature (live-not live), or by its physical feature (low-high frequency). The purpose of this study was to compare the time characteristics of evoked potentials in these two types of tasks, which provides information on the time characteristics of categorization mechanisms of visual images. Analysis of the latent periods and amplitudes of the components of evoked potentials enabled to detect the occipital areas of the leads where the early components (up to 170 ms) are associated with spatial and frequency characteristics of the image, the frontal and temporal areas where the components of 170-200 ms correspond with the process of categorization, and the later frontal, central and parietal areas (300-500 ms) correspond with the process of error detection and the organization of motor response.

Objective: To describe and compare the latencies and amplitudes of Mismatch Negativity between children with and without Developmental Dyslexia.
Methods: Cross-sectional and comparative study, consisting of a study group of 52 children with Developmental Dyslexia and a control group of 52 children with typical development, matched by age and sex, aged between 9 years and 11 years and 11 months of both sexes. All participants underwent Otoscopy, Acoustic Immittance Measurements, Pure Tone Audiometry, Speech Audiometry, Brainstem Auditory Evoked Potential and Mismatch Negativity.

Neurotransmitters and neuromodulators can be released via either action potential (AP)-evoked transient or AP-independent continuous neurotransmission. The elevated AP-evoked neurotransmission in the primary sensory neurons plays crucial roles in hyperalgesia. However, whether and how the AP-independent continuous neurotransmission contributes to hyperalgesia remains largely unknown.

Objective: This study aimed to examine the impact of social presence on Chinese reading comprehension and associated neural responses.
Methods: Participants tasked with reading Chinese sentences either alone or in the presence of others and subsequently assessing the accuracy of the sentences' meanings. Concurrently, we recorded the participants' electrical brain responses to critical word processing.

While soundscapes shape the structure and function of auditory systems over evolutionary timescales, there is limited information regarding the adaptation of wild fish populations to their natural acoustic environments. This is particularly relevant for freshwater ecosystems, which are extremely diverse and face escalating pressures from human activities and associated noise pollution. The Siamese fighting fish is one of the most important cultured species in the global ornamental fish market and is increasingly recognized as a model organism for genetics and behavioural studies.
